It would be incredibly stupid to have all of them be sealed away since the past like being "frozen in the ice" and be magically discovered: I'm glad this class, Hero or not related to the original five heroes, didn't use that plot idea. You know, I wonder if the farmer character is the reincarnation or some sort of descendant of the dragon's former partner during the time when the Black Magician ruled over most of the Maple World, meaning that the character had a Hero bloodline; or that the dragon was looking for a new partner to prepare before the Black Magician arrived in the Maple World again due to the death of a former Hero partner in the past, making this farm boy into a Hero. Those would both work nicely as to bringing this class back to the Maple world.
There's just one thing I'm not sure of: if the Arans with the other Heroes were so close to defeating the Black Magician and the Arans were frozen away, what stopped the other Heroes from killing or totally defeating the Black Magician?
I think that in this case, Mir was the actual hero. There's no proof that all of the heroes were human. So if Mir was the hero, that beaten up image of it makes it pretty obvious what happened. I think it would make a lot of sense for one of the heroes to be a dragon. Humans aren't the only ones who want to protect the mapleverse, the halfrings and faeries are proof of that.
Assuming Mir is one of the heroes, than the baby dragon (growing more powerful, of course) would obviously be the successor to that role. Evan is just his/her trainer or companion.
I'm pretty sure that the human wouldn't even exist if it wouldn't take so much work for Nexon to add new "skeletons" for characters. We have the human one which is what everything is built around. Imagine having to do that for other playable character-types? The human is just a vessel to bypass that creation, the one you're really playing as is meant to be the dragon.
I once suggested that it would be neat to be able to play as like a bear or something to either Isaac or Fiel and they quickly shot down that idea based on the fact that the game is built around the current character models.
