== Literature ==
* Harry's quest in ''[[Harry Potter]] [[Harry Potter/Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (novel)|Harry Potter and Thethe Deathly Hallows]]'' have him searching for Voldemort's [[Soul Jar|Horcruxes]], which keep him alive while they are intact.
* The Four Sisters in ''[[Deltora Quest]]''.
* ''[[The Dangerous Days Of Daniel X]]'' - The whole premise of the book series. Danny essentially has a big wanted list of alien criminals on Earth, and surprise surprise the one that killed his parents is number one on the list. The entire series basically revolves around him killing off or capturing the aliens on the list one by one, making his way to the one who killed his parents.
Line 65:
* ''[[Kamen Rider Decade]]'' has the titular hero being told that, in order to avert the collapse of [[The Multiverse]], he has to travel to the realities of the last nine ''[[Kamen Rider]]'' series and kill all of the heroes. He refuses, of course, and helps the Riders. {{spoiler|It turns out that the collapse proceeded apace, accelerated by the villains but inevitable with or without them. When Decade was provoked into going to his [[Super-Powered Evil Side]], slaughtering all Riders as Decade Fury, the worlds, no longer being forced together by the Riders' powers, were all restored to their original states - including the slain Riders. It turned out plan A ''was the right one'' and [[Everybody Lives]] in the end.}}
* The nineties show ''[[Brimstone (TV series)|Brimstone]]'' features a policeman brought back from hell (it's complicated) by the devil to return a number of escapees to hell the hard way (killing them, though the vast majority are only vulnerable in the eyes.)
* Alya's list on ''[[Game of Thrones]]''; not a physical list, but one she recites every night before sleeping to remember the names. All names on the list are people who committed some sort of severe crime against her family. A grand total of 13 intended victims have been on the list at one time or another; four of them she deleted after forgiving the crime, six are dead (two by someone other than Anya) and one deleted because she ''believes'' him to be dead. (Maybe. The Hound survived, and she specifically said she wanted him to ''suffer''.) {{spoiler| As of the Seasonsecond 7to finalelast episode of Season 8, onlyevery twovictim -on Cerseithe Lannisterlist is dead, and Alya - who survived the Mountain[[Final -Battle]] no longer needs remainit.}}

Line 114:
* [[The Holders Series]] - of course, it's a tossup as to whether the results of bringing them together or preventing them coming together are worse, and if they are all destroyed they will "unite in the destroyed state", so it's rather a no-win situation.
 
== Western Animation ==
* In the second season of the ''[[Harley Quinn]]'' series, Harley keeps a "Kill Board" where she keeps pictures of Gotham villains she plans revenge on: Joker, Penguin, Riddler, Two-Face, Mr. Freeze, and Bane. {{spoiler|Although, as Poison Ivy reminds her, the Joker is presumed dead and Penguin is ''definitely'' dead even before she puts it up. Although, while she calls it a "Kill Board", she seems open to ideas other than murder to gain revenge, [[Fate Worse Than Death| as the Riddler found out]] when they [[Laser-Guided Karma| put him in his own human hamster wheel to power their generator]].}}
