An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

An athlete in a race, an adventurer on top of a train, a Pirate boarding a ship, a cunning politician executing an amazing plan, a Loveable Rogue during a Sword Fight, a warrior during a Last Stand, two friends sparring--anyone facing an interesting and fun challenge with a reasonable chance of failure will sport one of these smiles. It's usually a bit forced, showing the strain and stress the user is under, and a there's certain edge of malice and aggressiveness to it, even insanity: a hint of Blood Lust, to be precise. It's very common against AntiHeroes type IV and V, especially if they are young and/or adrenaline junkies. It is usually coupled with a steady gaze, even a frown of sorts.

  • An athlete in a race, an adventurer on top of a train, a Pirate boarding a ship, a cunning politician executing an amazing plan, a Loveable Rogue during a Sword Fight, a warrior during a Last Stand, two friends sparring--anyone facing an interesting and fun challenge with a reasonable chance of failure will sport one of these smiles.

The heroic counterpart to the Slasher Smile and the Psychotic Smirk, which are mostly about enjoying the anticipation of hurting others, especially when it's secret and they're unaware of the threat. In contrast, the Grin of Audacity is about relishing the anticipation of winning. Very un-professional and un-business like, since it shows lack of emotional restraint, and comes more easily to Chaotic than to Lawful characters: don't expect characters modelled after serious-minded, saint-like, statuesque, iconic Superman or Batman to sport it often if at all: the heroes wearing these are supposed to be more sympathetic and human. Before the fear and the threats that a hero confronts, there are many ways one would realistically react, and this is one of them: If you've gotta do it, you might as well enjoy it.
