[QUOTE="keith99, post: 71186275, member: 211648"] Why not take a page from non-Christian fantasy writers? How about a hero like Miles Vorkosigan who has a very inferior body and succeeds by being clever and persistent. Oh and honorable, very honorable so that any who work with him are loyal, very loyal. (note for an explicitly Christian work temptation can sure come in eventually). Of Butcher's Fury series where the hero lacks the magical power others have so he actually thinks instead and makes the most of the little he has. Or nothing much at all, except from time to time knowing there is somewhere he must go or something he must do. An idea that needs some skill to pull off as it needs to seem more a curse than a blessing in many ways. Most writers would ruin it by overplaying it and using it as a deus ex machina. No the hero needs to not get bailed out (or not much) and perhaps experience personal growth through his tasks. [/QUOTE]
