Looting the Body: Difference between revisions
added examples, added/edited text, added category, cleaned up embedded instructions and unneeded DEFAULTSORT tag.
Beta Log 86 (talk | contribs) (Don't worry I saw it. I cleaned up some of the mess. In the Fan Work example, I think the person was going for accusation after being caught. Of course, for moral reasons, we shouldn't have a real life example.) |

Line 7:
Not to be mistaken for [[Grave Robbing]], that's stealing the actually corpse or parts.

Line 18 ⟶ 20:
== [[Fan Works]] ==
* In ''[[Final Stand of Death]]'', Nick Diamond is confronted by Debbie Matenopoulos finds a mixtape belong to one of the [[Spice Girls]] in his possession. Nick tries to [[Suspiciously Specific Denial|denied]] stealing, yet alone kidnapping.
* Amusingly averted in the ''[[RWBY]]''/''[[The Gamer]]'' [[Crossover]] fic ''[[The Games We Play (RWBY fanfic)|The Games We Play]]''. Jaune's Semblance gives him a video game interface to his life, including loot drops when he kills Grimm. But he doesn't have to search their bodies for the loot -- it appears neatly stacked on the ground next to them after they die.
== [[Film]] ==
* From ''[[The Princess Bride (film)|The Princess Bride]]'':
{{quote|'''Miracle Max:''' He's only mostly dead. If he were all dead, there's only one thing you can do.
'''Inigo Montoya:''' And what's that?
'''Miracle Max:''' Go through his pockets and look for loose change.}}

== [[Video Games]] ==
* Of course after killing someone, the player in the ''[[Grand Theft Auto (series)|Grand Theft Auto]]'' series has the option of stealing from the body, either money or a weapon.
* [[Duke Nukem]] would often steal from the bodies of the aliens after killing them, mostly [[Plunder|ammo or weapons he can use]].
* Honestly, loot that automatically drops after you defeat something in RPGs or MMORPGs is actually the game automatically handling your character ransacking the corpse they just made.
== [[Visual Novel]]s ==
