Idle Ages / Heroes
All 159 heroes in Idle Ages
Every hero in Idle Ages is a named figure attached to one of the 40 ages, and every one carries a written history that unlocks as you level them. There are 40 legendary, 58 epic, 35 rare and 26 common to collect.
Follow a name to read their history on their age's page, alongside the three heroes they share it with. The ages are listed here.
Each age also nominates one of its four as its manager, and that is the hero whose level unlocks auto-collect for the age. It is the lowest rarity of the four: the common where the age has one, and the rare in the 18 ages that do not.
How a hero raises an age
A hero multiplies the age they belong to, and that multiplier grows with every level they gain. A rare, epic or legendary doubles what they add at every level; a common multiplies it by 1.6. Heroes in the same age add together, output with output and speed with speed, and output then multiplies against speed. A balanced age beats a lopsided one.
Levels come from duplicate copies of the same hero, which is why copies keep being useful after the first. Copies come from summoning, from tasks, from events and from the daily board.

Legendary heroes (40)
A legendary raises every age you own, not only their own, and counts twice in their home age. There is one for each of the 40 ages.
