* ''[[Heroes of Might and Magic]]'''s first ''Heroes' Chronicles'' campaign details the rise and fall of Tarnum, a barbarian whose only goal is to free his people from the tyrannical rule of the Bracadan wizards to re-establish the glorious barbarian empire of old. Throughout the campaign, various events cause him to grow more paranoid and ruthless, with the tipping point being his poisoning of all his generals, whom he suspected of treachery. He is eventually ended by King Rion Gryphonheart, the first Erathian king, in a [[Combat by Champion]]. The remaining campaigns detail his redemption after he is not admitted to the barbarian afterlife. His final redemption comes in the barbarian campaign of ''Heroes of Might and Magic IV'', where he guides a young barbarian named Waerjak in uniting the scattered tribes in a story mirroring his own, minus this trope.

* Jin Kazama in ''[[Tekken]] 6''. Regardless of his [[Utopia Justifies the Means|reasons]] [[Knight Templar|for]] [[Batman Gambit|doing]] [[Evil Versus Evil|it]], he plunged the entire world into war and nearly cruelly executed his uncle (it's not like he wasn't enjoying it) based on selfishness and ''a theory.'' Jin himself recognizes what his actions have turned him into, even though he's the only one who could have done what he did.
