Heroes that are very wise and seem to know much about what goes on around them. Many who are wise are strong and/or deal with magic. Wisdom often goes hand in hand with intellect but a wise hero is not necessarily a genius and vice-versa.

The key difference between a wise hero and a genius is a smart hero will have the knowledge to do amazing things but a wise hero will be able to apply the knowledge they have with ease and is rarely wrong. Even the wisest of heroes like guile heroes can be considered dim or book dumb.
