A person who feels the need to be a hero in every situation. People with hero syndrome try to save other people by defending them from backbiters and bullies instead of villains. They will try to resolve situations for others. However, more often than not, they put themselves in trouble. Funnily, they never learn their lesson and return to getting involved in things that don't concern them.
Bruce: I am sorry for the things that I said to your ex-girlfriend. I just wanted to protect you from all the ridiculous gossip she was spreading about you.

Ryan: It's alright, man. You just have hero syndrome; you can't help it. Just don't say anything next time.
