* The Psilons in ''[[Master of Orion]]'' are generally pacifistic and do not actively seek to conquer other empires. However, they have the best research abilities in the game, and will invariably be higher on the tech tree than you, which means they'll thrash you in a war.

* ''[[Fallout: New Vegas]]'' has a few of these. On the Player's Team there is Veronica, a Brotherhood Scribe who wants them to play nice instead of raiding anyone with energy weapons but can also murder your face with a power fist, Arcade Gannon, a Follower of the Apocalypse doctor and researcher who wants everyone to be happy but is also {{spoiler|a former member of the Enclave}} well trained in Energy Weaponry, and ED-E, an eyebot that just wants love and to find a home. Cass could also count, but she's an example of [[Good Is Not Nice]].

** There's also Christine Royce, a deeply philosophical Brotherhood of Steel Scribe who was Veronica's lover. When their former elder, Elijah broke them up, she joined the Knights and the Circle of Steel. When she heard about Elijah murdering people all over the wastes and abandoning the BOS at Helios One, she volunteered to hunt him down and assassinate him, becoming one of three people to explore the Big Empty and ''escape'' before assisting the Courier in killing Elijah and becoming treated as invulnerable as the security holograms to the '' [[Demonic Spiders|Ghost People]].''

** There's also Marcus and Mean Son of Bitch, two very friendly Super Mutants. Marcus, however, was a player companion in Fallout 2 and helped blow up the Enclave's Oil Rig and Mean S.O.B. defends Westside against the fiends so well that most of them stay away from Westside now.
