* The Order of the Silver Hand from the world of ''[[War Craft]]''. The Paladins of the Order served to defend the human kingdoms through the second war and a bit of the third war as Light-empowered healing-capable knights, but were disbanded, in''Warcraft 3'' by a crazed Arthas when Uther the Lightbringer refused to help him purge the plague-infested town of Stratholme. Most of the Paladins themselves, including Uther, were killed shortly afterwards by Arthas and the Scourge after he became a rampaging Death Knight. A decade later, in ''Wrath of the Lich King'', the Order was recreated with the help of Tirion Fordring and the Argent Dawn, following Arthas and the Scourge's defeat at the Battle of Light's Hope Chapel. The reborn order was christened the Argent Crusade, with the purpose of taking the war to Northrend, and finally, finishing off the Lich King.

* This sort of happens in ''[[Dragon Age]]: Origins''. While there are other Grey Wardens on Thedas, you and Alistair are the last of the Wardens in Ferelden after the Battle of Ostagar. By the end of the game, your victory over the Fifth Blight redeems the Wardens' reputation in Ferelden -- it's mentioned earlier that the Wardens aren't very popular in Ferelden due to a past Warden's attempted coup. In ''Awakening'' you have to start conscripting new Wardens after the ones from Orlais are all killed/captured by the Darkspawn, taking your journey full circle from conscriptee to conscripter.

** At the end of the second prequel book, all that's left of the Wardens in Ferelden are Duncan and {{spoiler|Alistair's mother}}, both relatively new recruits. Duncan is charged by his superiors in Weisshaupt Fortress to rebuild the order in Ferelden. He succeeds but not enough to stop the next Blight.

* In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (Video Game)|Assassin's Creed Brotherhood]]'', Ezio sets about rebuilding the Assassin order in Rome, after the destruction of their primary base in Monterigionni. Unlike most [[Order Reborn]] plots, the Assassin brotherhood's support infrastructure is still intact, but the membership needs to be completely rebuilt and reorganized in a hostile area of Italy being dominated by their enemies. Once Ezio starts recruiting dedicated Assassins, he can dispatch them to support other Assassin operations across Europe.

** While Ezio can only recruit up to 12 assassins, by the end, they can all achieve the rank of Master Assassin and, therefore, be able to, theoretically, have recruits of their own.
