Campbell's characteristics of an archetypal hero include which of the following?

The hero is defined as 'any male or female who leaves the world of his or her everyday life to undergo a journey...'

Campbell’s archetypal hero is defined by leaving the ordinary world to undertake a journey that transforms them. This departure is the spark that starts the hero’s path—answering the call to adventure, crossing into the unknown, facing challenges, and returning changed. The description in the statement captures that essential impulse: a hero who moves from everyday life into a quest.

Choosing a hero who never leaves home misses the key dynamic that drives the journey and growth. A villain seeking power describes a different character type altogether, not the archetypal hero. The other option isn’t a meaningful character description.

A hero who never leaves home

A villain who seeks power
