Both 'Ordinary' and 'young' are weak character descriptions.
You should give us a better description of your lead, it takes the same amount of words but can give the reader a better picture of who the lead is. Here would be a few examples of what I am talking about.
Shy student
Nerdy fast food worker
introverted physics major.
=====
"When aliens attack the earth, an introverted physics major is transformed by the power of Gaia and tasked with saving the planet from their destructive extraterrestrial strip mining."

Hope this helps, good luck!
