European mortals have created a mark for themselves as heroes, warriors, kings, queens, princes, princesses, knights, wizards and many more. They have been fundamental in pushing forward the various epics and folk tales from the region.

The relative age when compared to the other mythologies from around the world also tend to make these European mortals more relatable to the current population with scenarios being much more in tune with what the current environment around them exhibits.

The popularity of these mortals have been amplified with the creation of films and TV series that are heavily inspired from these characters and situations that have been discussed previously in mythological texts and folklore.
