avenger

An avenger is someone who takes revenge for harm or injustice done to them or their loved ones.

When people talk about an avenger, they often mean someone who seeks justice or retribution after a painful or traumatic event. This can be a character in a movie or book who has lost a family member and now wants to punish those responsible, but it can also refer to real-life situations where individuals take matters into their own hands to right a wrong. For example, if a community comes together to bring down a corrupt politician who's been hurting people for years, they might be seen as the avengers of that town.
