Hero Class is a class derived from the base classes, but with more specialization and somewhat tied to Warcraft lore. The idea of a hero class is presumably taken from the Warcraft III hero units.
At Blizzcon 2007, Blizzard announced that the Death Knight hero class will be a new addition in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion pack.
