Folk hero

Spanish Wikipedia doesn't have an entry for it, but Portuguese does:

Um herói popular, herói folclórico ou herói nacional é um tipo de herói - real, fictício ou mitológico - com nome, personalidade e atos incorporados à consciência popular de um povo, mencionado com frequência em canções folclóricas, contos folclóricos e outros folclores; e com status tropo moderno na literatura, arte e filmes.
