LOL--I'm the same way. I always see myself as one of the crowd; I can't imagine myself being the special person, really, unless there's a really believable point about the character not seeming special at all. I remember doing a post about something similar once about how there are the characters who have "destinies" and characters who make decisions to get involved. I can't help but root for them for making decisions that way. Like Han Solo having to choose to go back to the rebellion, as opposed to Luke who is the Chosen One. Or Ron choosing to stick with Harry--or Draco and Snape fighting their way in from the outside.
