{{Quote|'''HERO SELECT''' – You may be just beginning your life as a hero, but you could become the most famous face in the Overworld. It's important to look the part! The Hero Select screen is your first chance to express yourself.|''Minecraft Legends:<br>A Hero's Guide to Saving the Overworld''<ref name=guide>''[[Minecraft Legends:A Hero's Guide to Saving the Overworld]]'', pg. 12</ref>}}

A '''hero''', or '''Overworlder'''<ref>{{w|Matt Forbeck}}, ''[[Minecraft Legends:Return of the Piglins]]''</ref>, is the terminology used for the player character within ''[[Minecraft Legends]]''.

A player must choose a hero on the Hero Select<ref>''[[Minecraft Legends:A Hero's Guide to Saving the Overworld]]'', pg. 12</ref> screen before playing the game. Many options are available. Unlike in ''[[Minecraft]]'', no custom heroes can be brought into the game without using third party game mods. The appearance of the player's hero can be changed with various [[MCL:Skin|skins]].

A hero interacts with in-game objects, mobs, and non-player characters (NPCs). The NPCs interact with the player's hero. The in-game narrator also refers to the player character as the "hero".

In contrast to the hero, the '''player''' interacts with things outside the game, such as game menus like the hero selector, options, purchasing downloadable content (DLC), and developer interactions.
