Five Fictional Heroes
With Donald Macleod.
3: Peer Gynt. A half-legendary character of Norwegian folklore, Peer Gynt was known for his propensity to exaggerate, lie and generally spin yarns like the devil. He was a fantasist whose imagination refused to be bounded by the miserable circumstances of his real existence.
As a result, anything could happen when he was around.
