NPC Hero sourcebook ?

Recommended Posts

For 5e, Champions Universe: News of the World had the Sentinels and the Justice Squadron, as well as solo heroes.  Going back to 4e, Allies was entirely NPC heroes, but I don't believe any of them made it into 5e or 6e canon.

 

Executive Sanction, US government hero team.

The Posse, bloodthirsty vigilantes.

The Braverman Foundation, traveling entertainment troupe of mostly bricks.

Zen Team, Japanese corporate-sponsored Sentai team.

The Redeemed, former villains making up for their past.

The Flashmen, pseudo-heroes focused on fame and fortune, and looking better than the PCs.

Cyberknights, cyborgs, gadgeteers, powered armor heroes, and a robot

 

Assorted solo heroes: 

Peak human white supremacist "hero".

Child with a magic wand.

Native American brick attorney.

Genetically engineered humanoid feline secret agent.

Ghostly undead WWII hero.

Shapeshifting veterinarian.

Normal human with lots of Luck and Unluck, and gadgets he's found.

A large group of normal humans who take turns wearing the same costume.

Champions and Champions Universe are probably your best bet.  There just aren't that many published NPC hero write ups.

While there is a moderate number of them around, they're scattered among several books. Champions Universe for Fifth Edition HERO had a few more NPC heroes than the Sixth Edition book has, and is available from the Hero Games website store in PDF form; although I really wouldn't recommend buying the book just for those few write-ups.

There are a few more heroes statted in the source books for Millennium City and Vibora Bay. If you're interested in more than just American heroes, Champions Of The North writes up several Canadian ones, while Champions Worldwide adds a fair-sized sampling from the rest of the globe. Galactic Champions provides several heroes for the far future of the official setting.
