After watching Daredevil on Netflix, I thought of how many blind heroes there are, that I know of? So far, that's three, but here is a list of them!
Morgan
Suikoden I
A blind gladiator who appears in the first Suikoden game.
He is first met at a temple, where he meditates. He notes to the player, that he was born blind. This is however false, it's not until the prequel, Suikoden V, that we find out that he was an enslaved gladiator in the country of Falena. He was so powerful, that he won every match. In order to go against the odds, his eyes were forcefully removed. Despite this, he would still win with the use of honing his inner being, and was shipped off to another country. Morgan was able to escape due to a storm, and washed up in the country of Toran (Where Suikoden I takes place).
Toph Beifong
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Toph is an Earthbending Master. (Which is the ability to manipulate the earth, such as making giant earth pillows pop out of the ground.. etc)
Toph was born blind, and the daughter of high status parents. She was able to learn "Earth Bending", by animals known as Badger Moles. She's able to "see" through the vibrations in the earth.
Toph is a great fighter, and earth bender. She also learns how to "Metal Bend", and eventually teaches others how to do so as well.
Matt Murdoch
Daredevil
Matt Murdoch, or "Daredevil", is a lawyer by day and a vigilante by night.
When he was 9, he saved a man from getting hit by a vehicle, unfortunately, the vehicle had dangerous chemicals on board, causing Matt to lose his eyesight.
Eventually, he was trained to fight by a blind man named Stick.
After college, Matt became a lawyer. But at night, he becomes the vigilante hero "Daredevil".
Due to losing his eyesight, he has heightened senses, and uses them to his advantage. He uses an array of martial arts, and a stave to fight his enemies.
Question of the day, how does a blind person and a deaf person communicate?
Feel free to comment below any characters that you know of!
