No Honor Among Thieves: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]'' has Will Turner comment "No heroes amongst thieves, eh?" when Jack tells him part of the Pirates Code; "Any man who falls behind is left behind". Of course, all the good pirates ignore this for the rest of the series.

* In ''[[Tangled]]'', Flynn betrays fellow fellow thieves, the Stabbington brothers, early in the movie.

** This is after the hero specifically tells his reluctant partner, a young female mage whose mentor was betrayed and killed by a fellow mage, that a thief would never betray another thief.

* The opening scene of ''[[The Dark Knight]]'' illustrates the way Joker's henchmen kill each other for a bigger share of the loot.

== [[Tabletop Games]] ==

 

* ''[[Warhammer Fantasy Battle]]''. Chaos, Orcs and Skaven especially.

* Titan Avatars in ''[[Scion]]'' are frequently at loggerheads. Muspelheim's avatars (Prometheus in particular) all plan to waylay Surtr once Ragnarok is over. The Drowned Road's two strongest avatars, Mami Wata and Ran, ''act'' aligned but will someday go for each other's throats, while Nu sits in the background and makes its own plots. Terra is led by Gaia, but the other avatars are open to offers. Sobe-no-Kumi is led by Mikaboshi... only because he arranged for Erebus to be pinned down in a deep part of the Titan. The list goes on; the only Titan without avatar issues is Akhenaten, and that's because Aten is its ''only'' avatar.
