First of all , the word 'heroine' is the female form of 'hero'.

One could suggest that 'Penelope' is the heroine in the saga The Odyssey. She was the wife of Odysseus, and refused all suitors to marry her, hoping her husband, Odysseus would return home, which he did.

Also another heroine is 'Helen' , the abducted Greek princess. She was abducted to Troy. Her abduction was the trigger that started the Trojan War.

Helen, was known as 'Helen of Troy', but she was actually Greek/Achaean.

Do Not confuse with 'heroin' the illegal social drug.
