Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
They mostly don’t!.

In stories in which one person is the hero, obviously any other characters don’t live up to him!.

However, Beowulf didn’t come to Heoret alone!. His followers, then to some degree followed the heroic idea!. also the Geats who took part in Hygelac’s raid on the Hetware and fought to the death may be said to exemplify the heroic ideal!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
