* In [[Robert E. Howard]]'s [[Conan the Barbarian]] story "The People of the Black Circle", the king demands this of his sister before his soul is trapped.
{{quote|''Ali! I feel their pull upon me now! Your cry and the grip of your fingers brought me back, but I am going fast. My soul clings to my body, but its hold weakens. Quick--kill me, before they can trap my soul for ever!''}}
* In ''[[Gone (novel)]]'', {{spoiler|Hunter, who is being slowly eaten by parasitic wasps, begs Sam to kill him.}}
* {{spoiler|Denna}} in [[The Sword of Truth|Wizard's First Rule]] states that {{spoiler|she tortured the protagonist worse than she did anyone else, suspecting he's the one a prophecy says will kill her, and thus trying to push him to do so. In the end, he kills her ''out of love''.}}
** Also applies to the victims of a Mord-Sith. They're held so that they magically cannot kill themselves, even though the Mord-Sith let them keep their weapons.
Line 220:
** They're actually whimpering, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhD-vd7PXY4 "GOD HELP, HELP ME!"] backwards, and damn if it isn't [[Nightmare Fuel|creepy as hell]].
* Shadow's flashback dreams in ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]'' shows him being asked by his partner Baram to kill him, as he was mortally wounded and couldn't do the deed himself. Shadow freaks out and runs away, leaving Baram to die slowly and painfully.
* General Pepper in ''[[Star Fox (series)|Star FoxFOX]] Assault''. The Aparoids have taken over his ship and threaten to take over himself as well. During the fight, he keeps asking to be killed before that happens. Subverted in that Peppy dives in to soften the ships fall and Pepper survives in the end. Also later in the game, {{spoiler|Peppy sacrifices the infested Great Fox to break through a defensive shield}}.
* In an astonishing example of loyalty, {{spoiler|Asgard [[Suicide by Cop|battles your party]] after he saves them from [[The Man Behind the Man|Beatrice]], just so he can get around his self-preservation programming and follow his masters to hell}} in ''[[Wild Arms 3]]''.
* In the 3D shooter game ''[[Duke Nukem]]'', Duke comes across various attractive young women with [[Body Horror]] problems who beg you to kill them.
