Heroes (勇者 Yūsha), as the name says, are people that enter Badman's dungeon to capture him. The objective of the franchise is to kill all invading heroes while Badman gains enough power to complete his conquest, using monsters.

In What Did I Do to Deserve This, My Lord!? and related, heroes will invade the dungeon to try and drag Badman and Badmella out before they gain enough power to take over the kingdom. They are sworn to the king and queen of the given region. Heroes employ numerous tactics to try and break through the horde, even to the extent of Hero Rushes, to bring the big bad down. They each have their own occupations, sets of skills, and movement patterns, which must be taken into consideration when making the perfect stage to kill them. They aren't above looting dungeons, either: They will raid Treasure Chests, and in No Heroes Allowed!, even steal the eggs of Dragons and Lizardmen.

In Yu-Nama: The Puzzle and related, Badman pulls on a lever that causes an endless Hero Rush to occur. The God of Destruction must fend off the forces by rapidly assaulting them with monsters in return.
In No Heroes Allowed: No Puzzles Either! and Yūsha no Kuse ni Konamaiki da DASH!, the heroes are hit with attacks from Badman's forces instead, and this time, can be subjugated into workers in the Mine, digging up monsters and items to bolster the horde further. Rare and Super Rare heroes are also introduced, playing a part in evolving monsters to stronger forms.
In No Heroes Allowed! VR[]

In No Heroes Allowed! VR, heroes take a new role, spawning from bases in the forms of villages and castles. They target the tower housing Badman's Lair, attempting to lay siege to it before Badman's horde conquers the castle ruling over the region. Should they do so, they will enter the lair and take Badman to prison.
Unlike in previous titles, heroes stay active during the day and will sleep in place at night, leaving them vulnerable to attack by monsters. As time goes on, heroes will gradually become stronger, further threatening Badman's prospects. Additionally, two new hero types are introduced: Cheater Heroes and Rare Heroes.
