The Crimson Binome
Hero
I can't speak for anyone else on this, but I am not one to make light of murder, and any sort of murderer is just about the worst kind of character that anyone could possibly play. Murder is bad.
To that end, a murderhobo (as I see it) is basically an evil wanderer who kills innocent people. The opposite of a murderhobo is a wandering hero, who only kills monsters (or at least, dangerous creatures which are not intelligent enough to be considered people).
A murderhobo campaign is (most likely) one where the players don't identify with their characters and, as such, have no qualms about killing innocent (albeit fictional) people. At least, that's how I see it. That's what comes to mind, when I hear the term.
