Avenging the Villain: Difference between revisions

 

== Tabletop Games ==

* In ''GURPS Cabal'', the Cabal in question has a tradition of vengeance. Every member has two other members that he is assigned to avenge should they die, and every member has two other members who will avenge him upon his death. So if anyone kills one Cabalist, he will have two others avenging that one. Killing those two will being ''four'' avengers, etc. (And since the Cabal is formed of mystics, sorcerers, monsters, etc., this can get scary real quick.)

 

* The Cyclops in ''[[Castle Crashers]]'' attempts to avenge the groom of the kidnapped princess, until the player just frags him too. {{spoiler|Twice.}}

* Franziska Von Karma in ''[[Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney]]: Justice for All'', the daughter of Manfred Von Karma, who in the previous game Phoenix defeated {{spoiler|and sent to jail}}. She first appears making it clear that she has it out for Phoenix, while he tries to convince her that it's not such a big deal. {{spoiler|It turns out to be a subversion; she ''wasn't'' trying to avenge her father... she was trying to surpass her big-brother figure and childhood rival, Miles Edgeworth.}}

** {{spoiler|The Elder Princess Shroob}} in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners In Time]]''. Somewhat notable in that she seemed to care about her sister, despite {{spoiler|said sister not trying to [[Sealed Evil in a Can|reunite the Cobalt Star at all.]]}}

* ''[[Ultima]] II'' and ''III'' are built around this. In ''The Revenge of the Enchantress'', the current [[Big Bad]] is a disciple and lover of the [[Big Bad]] from the first game. In ''Exodus'', the titular [[Big Bad]] is a child of ''both'' [[Big Bad]]s from the previous two games.
