We call the PCs heroes, but objectively in most cases they're probably not.
What they are is the main group (or *a* main group, in a multi-party campaign) of protagonists in the game's story...which gets them the hero treatment whether deserved or not.
Their ongoing behaviour, at least in my game, is often anything but heroic. Sometimes, it seems they find ways to succeed in spite of their own best attempts to do otherwise...
