A good post ((((again)))) by AzzarTheGod. Your name is logged in my phones smart keyboard BTW.
It really must take a special sort of person to weather the storm. A mixture of the crusader archetype with also the thug, imo.
I was thinking about this while watching the first season of Daredevil. DD is crusader archetype, like the guides you mentioned. He will never kill anyone, and this principle holds him back, eats him up, and also protects him.
On the contrary (spoiler alert), when his corn fed, blonde secretary is at the mercy of the evil underling cuck (lieutenant of main villain), she has no hesitation when it comes to grabbing the gun and capping his ass.
Glossing over the excellent story structure as more impactful characters resolve their battles to create a system of progressive unlocking/buildup of story state that feeds the psychosphere of the audience and the story world to release a truly cathartic moment of heroic action and thus salvation for all mankind, we can see that a guy like Daredevil (he who must not be named) is doomed by nature to ultimately fall into damnation. When that start so strong they become brittle and snap under the weight of our grimy reality.
Basically you need a person who fights for good, but is capable of putting JUST THE TIP into the dark world of the Enemy.
Hope this helps in future recruitment.
