...A building is a symbol, as is the act of destroying it. Symbols are given power by people. Alone, a symbol is meaningless, but with enough people, blowing up a building can change the world.
~ V in V for Vendetta.

Heroic Symbolism is good/heroic-related things that represents an entirely larger concept than themselves. For instance, the pentagram shape on both the Merlin Circle (symbol of the Merlineans and opposite of the Morgana Star) represents their positive nature and their association with white magic in Disney' s The Sorcerer's Apprentice. Other examples of such iconic symbols of good includes Mushroom Kingdom alongside its royal Mushroom Castle (the Mushroom People's utopic royal capital homeland based around the said magical fleshy spore-bearing fruiting fungus plants within the vast Mushroom World) in the Super Mario Bros. videogame franchise, the Rings/Power Rings (iconic score-increasing golden ringbands with other unique supernatural properties as demonstrated by the cool speedster Sonic the Hedgehog) in the Sonic the Hedgehogs video game franchise, or the Ritual of Chüd (a mystifyingly eldritch battle of wills used by the Loser Club group of human misfit children with the help of the of the benevolent cosmic creature Maturin the Turtle versus the nightmarish child-eating extradimensional fiend IT/Pennywise and horrifying Deadlights) in the 1986 Stephen King horror novel It.
