** ''Starcraft II'' {{spoiler|makes it into a [[Woobie]] and a [[Big Good]] by revealing that soon after its creation, a... ''thing'' corrupted it and imposed its millenia-old directive of exterminating the Xel'Naga and the Protoss (and presumably everything else). Since the Overmind was created without free will, it could only follow this directive while [[And I Must Scream|raging inside its own mind]].}}
** Said ''thing'', going by the [[I Have Many Names|names]] of "The Fallen One", "The Lord of The In-Between-Places" or "The Living Heart of the Void" (identified by the humans as "The KL-2 Entity") {{spoiler|was recently released from [[Sealed Evil in a Can|imprisonment]] and has been promoted to current [[Big Bad]] of ''Starcraft II''.}}
** [[Word of God]] at BlizzCon 2010 said that "The Fallen One"/"The Dark Voice" [[Big Bad]] who altered the Overmind is NOT "The Voice in the Darkness" (and all those other names) that was freed by the humans. They are separate Eldritch Abominations. Also, it was said that the Zerg, in spite of their Woobie'd leader are going to remain [[Always ChaoticExclusively Evil]] (along with Kerrigan, but that remains to be seen exactly) even though they are needed to defeat the Fallen One and his protoss-zerg Hybrids.
* ''[[Aquaria (video game)|Aquaria]]'' features the Creator, who starts out safely beyond the [[Bishounen Line]] but gets more and more monstrous as [[Sequential Boss|the battle progresses]]. Some of his earlier creations also qualify on looks alone, if not on powers.
* In ''[[Epic Mickey]]'', The Phantom Blot has been changed to be one of these. He was unwittingly created by Mickey and left to corrupt the world of forgotten toons for decades.
