* In ''[[
* In the "Brotherhood of Shadow" ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]]'' Mod, a Czerka mining chief does this when his crew suddenly go animalistic and berserk due to an insane Jedi trying to lure your new party member out of hiding.
* In the [[G.I. Joe]] / [[Alien vs. Predator]] crossover fic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6397285/1/Corazones_y_Cazadores Corazones y Cazadores], the Joe team thinks Beachhead has chosen this when he's attacked by a facehugger and grabs for his handgun.
Line 278:
* When faced with the imminent Charr invasion in ''[[Guild Wars]]'', the Vizier of Orr decided on this approach. Well, unless blowing up your entire country and sinking most of it beneath the waves is considered a valid military tactic. I quote:
{{quote|'''Pyre Fierceshot:''' "The Vizier destroyed his own country rather than fight us. That...is a compliment."}}
* In [[Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots]], Vamp ended his life with his own hands before Otacon could.
* Happened in [[Tear Jerker|particularly heartbreaking]] fashion during the [[Hopeless War|Elder Wars]] in ''[[Lusternia]]''. [[Justified]] in that, by dying, the Elder Gods gave life to the mortal races - if they'd fought to the last, they would've been [[Cannibalism Superpower|devoured]] by [[Cosmic Horror|The Soulless Gods]] instead.
* In the opening scene of [[Tears to Tiara]], Rhiannon (who has seen glimpses of her own future) decides that her death by suicide is a better alternative than being made a living sacrifice to revive a demon lord.
