What is the cliché protagonist?

Hello all you amazing readers out there! Let's get some opinions!

What do you think makes a protagonist (of any kind of novel) cliché? What can be done to avoid this status quot that is the cliché main character? What makes a protagonist unique? Maybe give some examples of cliché and unique protagonists.

Mind you, I'm looking for peoples opinions on this matter, not suggestions. Thanks a lot, and I can't wait to read what you all have to say on this matter.

    I think the courageous, hero type is a bit over done in fantasys. like Percy Jackson (sorry PJ fans)

    or the girl who falls in love with the bad boy than changes him for the better. (Bella Swan)

    Unique? What about the nasty, bitter, but strangly loveable, wicked witch of the west from Wicked.
