If by "the hero" you are referring to the protagonist, then the answer is Jim Hawkins. Jim is a young innkeepers son who, through a bizarre series of events, finds himself on a quest for the legendary fortune hidden away on the mysterious Treasure Island by the long-dead Captain Flint. After a visit to his mother's inn, the mysterious Billy Bones dies from a stroke, passing on a map to Jim that caused great strife among Bones's crew due to many men coveting it. After a decision on the part of the district squire, an expedition is organized and a crew is assembled with young Jim in tow as the cabin boy. Jim begins his journey for wealth and adventure, and we follow his point of view over the course of the story.
