Calculation never made a hero.
Heroism - the qualities of a hero or heroine; exceptional or heroic courage when facing danger (especially in battle)
Heroism for me is shown in the effort and willingness of a person to help their people from battle without fear.
Protagonist for me is Achilles because Agamemnon's demand for Achilles war prize, the maiden Briseis, wounds Achilles pride; Achilles consequent refusal to fight causes the Achaean to suffer greatly in their battle against the Trojans.
