Question: 1 / 400

An antihero is typically characterized by what?

Moral uprightness

Crazy behavior

Brutal strength

Unconventional qualities

An antihero is a main character in a story who lacks typical qualities of a traditional hero, such as moral uprightness, crazy behavior, or brutal strength. Instead, an antihero is characterized by unconventional qualities that challenge societal norms and expectations. This makes option D, unconventional qualities, the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because a moral uprightness is typically associated with a traditional hero rather than an antihero. Option B is incorrect because while an antihero may exhibit unconventional or even reckless behavior, it is not necessarily "crazy." Option C is incorrect because antiheroes often lack physical strength, but their unconventional qualities allow them to overcome challenges in unconventional ways.
