In English there are no masculine or feminine forms. English uses gender specific nouns for male or female.

The gender specific noun for a male is hero.

The corresponding gender specific noun for a female is heroine.

Footnote: Use of many gender specific nouns for females have begun to fall out of use by society, since there is no reason to distinguish between the sexes in occupations and professions, there is no need for the old fashioned female designations.
