Line 102:
* A much more restrained than usual version of this is seen with Caspian in [[C. S. Lewis|CS Lewis]]' ''[[Prince Caspian]]''. The film less so.
* Many, ''many'' characters behave this way toward Gilderoy Lockhart in ''[[Harry Potter (novel)|Harry Potter]] and the Chamber of Secrets'', to the point where Harry—the actual hero of the series—gets forced to spend a detention helping the man answer his fan mail. Lockhart's general incompetence, though, implies that he doesn't deserve his fame; he eventually reveals that {{spoiler|he made a career out of finding people who did impressive things, [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|wiping their memories]], and claiming he did those things himself. Right afterward, in a fit of irony, Lockhart [[Hoist by His Own Petard|blanks his own memory while trying to blank Ron and Harry's memories]]}}. Bizarrely, Ron and Harry never seem to mention his secret to anyone, so Lockhart's fame is mostly intact....
* In [[Honor Harrington]] the hero of the Royal Manticoran Navy is Saginami. The Grayson's hero is naturally the founder of their religion whose opinions affect them even in baseball rules(such as a deep prejudice against allowing designated hitters). Honor Harrington herself naturally admires numerous naval heroes.
