My Protagonist

My Protagonist is called Jimmy. This hero wears his clothes depending on his feelings but he prefers to wear black. He loves to eat, eat anything and is thankful for what he has. His hobbies are karate, archery, fighting and writing music. The hero is defined as a special person with great generous qualities, is this hero a hero? One who wants to save the world, one who does barely care about his own life but if he could he would save the world. This hero is different from superman he has no super power he saves no one beautiful girl but he wants to save the world, he wants to heal all wounds and fix all places. He loves to hang out with his friends and is very popular, he loves to drink and have fun with women, and he has a love for motorbikes and fights. He believes that musicians have so much influence that they can save the world. That is what he wants to do, as many have tried. He is a musician and wants to spread his music all over the world, and influence people to learn from his words to stop racism stop prejudice and stop all hate and conflict. However, before he gets to that point he needs to save himself, break out of his cage, solve his own conflicts with himself.
The call: The call is when the protagonist gets the opportunity to start his journey into the unknown. My character is introduced into a world of music and producers unknown to what he has done in the past, and needs to develop new skills to get through this separation from his own familiar world.
The threshold: Now he is fully over an imaginary wall separated from family and friends, his skills are now needed to get him through without the help from friends and family. He is now under pressure not to do any wrong step and do what is asked from him but at the same time use his own ideas. Not to lose himself. The threshold guardians are his band members to secure his behaving and steps.
The Challenges: Challenges come up like inner and outer conflicts that keep him from succeeding in some tasks and he now has to work up what was lost which brings more pressure.
Into the Abyss: The abyss he reaches here is different, then a giant three headed monster that’s not to die. But it is a fight for friendship, a fight not to lose him and reach his goal.
Transformation and Revelation: My Protagonist has now reached his goal made up his work and not gotten rid of his problems but learnt to work them out.
The Atonement: He has now found out that no one can change the whole world but with his efforts he can be a good influence for part of the people and send messages out in his own artistic ways.
The Return: Well this character does not fully return from his journey, because this journey has now become part of his life. The unknown is not unknown anymore and his is on his way to greater levels within this now known world.
