Line 71:
* In the beginning of ''[[Red Dead Redemption]]'', Marston is shot and left for dead in front of a bandit hideout. Bonnie risks her life to rescue him, and then takes him back to her ranch to treat his wounds. Even though she isn't seeking any sort of payment, a grateful Marston spends much of the game repaying her kindness by helping her keep her ranch safe.
* Litchi Faye-Ling in ''[[BlazBlue]]'' tends to help those who are mostly ignored, such as Linhua when she first arrived to Orient Town and ignored by the majority, or for the Kaka clan who are doomed to extinction with nobody to care about, and ''especially'' on Arakune, whom everyone else considers a 'lost cause'. {{spoiler|She ends up getting tangled with a [[Bad Samaritan]] (Hazama) and was [[Forced Into Evil]], but at that point, when she met a distraught Carl, who is supposed to be none of her business at best, enemy at worst, she willingly lets him [[Cry Into Chest|cry on her hug until he calms down]] and calls out [[Archnemesis Dad|Relius']] [[Abusive Parents|parenting skills when he appears]], regardless if he's supposed to be her boss.}}
* This is sort of a staple of ''[[Pokemon]]'' . While the game has lots of merchants and guys who trade you stuff, there's also plenty of NPCs who give you things for free, if you simply talk to them, everything from Technical Machines, Hold Items, and Evolution Stones. In ''[[Pokémon Yellow]]'', Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Charmander are given to you by NPCs - absolutely no strings attached. ''[[Pokemon| Pokémon X and Y]]'' takes this Up to 11, where you can get a Lapras and a Lucario (two powerful Pokémon) as gifts with no strings attached.
** A Pokémon that fits the Trope is Delibird. Most of its PokéDex entries claim that it shares the food it stores in its tail to travelers that are lost and hungry in snowy mountains.
** Possibly the most generous trainer in the whole franchise is Drayden from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Yes, technically, he gives you a Duraludon as an in-game trade, but he will accept ''any'' Pokémon in return.<ref>Except for a Legendary, Shiny, or Mythical Pokémon</ref> This means you can gain this mega-powerful [[Lightning Bruiser| Dragon/Steel Pokémon]] in excahnge for any of the [[Com Mons]] you have in storage.
