Line 25:
* ''[[Fate Unlimited Codes]]'' has a version of Saber called "Saber Lily". This is a version of Saber where Britain accepted her gender; and she kept her first sword Caliburn. This should radically change her character; but there is no sign that she's different in personality from the original Saber.
** [[Word of God]] even refers to her as a "Refraction of the [[The Multiverse|Kaleidoscope]]."
* In the [[New Game+|second playthrough]] of [[
* [[Lampshaded]] in ''[[Nie R]]''. As part of a story event, a smith gives you a broken sword and promises to fix it. He does this again on a New Game Plus, which carries your inventory over. Nier asks if he doesn't have it already. Weiss just tells him this is how things happen the second time through.
* In the ''[[Soul Series|Soulcalibur]]'' series, one can unlock the [[Artifact of Doom|Soul Edge]] as a weapon for any character. It may have a negative effect like random stats or depletes your HP, but it does not drive you crazy unless your character actually uses it in a cutscene. In some endgame cutscenes, it's possible to watch your character use their Soul Edge that you unlocked to destroy the Soul Edge dropped by the final enemy; or throw their Soul Edge away and pick up the other; and get corrupted.
* Common in [[Nippon Ichi]] games; many of the [[DLC]] or [[Cameo]] characters who join the party have no effect on the plot; no matter what their previous experience is.
** Adell is the only human being in [[Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories|Veldime!]] Except for, you know, those humans that his sister [[DLC|summoned.]] But they don't count, nor are they turned into Demons by the Curse.
** [[Justified Trope]] in ''[[Phantom Brave]]'' and ''[[Makai Kingdom]]'', where certain characters' ''shadows'' join your party as phantoms; while they themselves do not. ([[Lampshaded]] by Ash in ''[[Phantom Brave|The Hermuda Triangle]]''; in gaining the future astrally projected soul of Castille who is stuck in ''[[Makai Kingdom]]''. "Um...won't this affect the future?")
*** Similarily in ''[[Soul Nomad and The World Eaters]]'', where defeating secret characters such as Asagi and Lujei adds them to your roster but never includes them in cutscenes... because technically you only have their manikin, and they only appear when you forcibly summon them for battles. Outside of battles, they're likely somewhere else, doing their own thing, just like every other recruitable character.
