This is why I love ensemble casts. Though I love a fair few heroes as well. I tend to have particular character types that I'm drawn to regardless of their position within the story, though.

Funnily enough, when I'm writing original fic, I very often can't write from the hero's POV for some reason. I mean, when I'm running the story in my head just for myself, I spend most of it in their POV no problem. But when I actually try to write, I almost always have to sidestep into one of the other character's heads to get traction. And the danger with doing that is that once I start in someone else's head, the story starts to get warped a bit by their perceptions of it. So sometimes I sidestep again, hop into someone else's head for another while, but that does it again. So I either play musical chairs with the POV, or accept that I'm probably not going to have things stay on track the way the hero POV initially intended.

This is possibly the reason why the story that ends up written is almost never the same story that I'd originally intended to write.
