Line 123:
* As the ''[[Redwall]]'' series went on, the mortality rate went from "[[Anyone Can Die]]" to "Only vermin are in danger". Perhaps the nadir: ''One'' named, nonvillainous character died in ''Pearls of Lutra'', and she had only had five nonsinging lines beforehand.
* By [[Word of God]], only one character truly has this in the ''[[Honor Harrington]]'' series: MacGuiness, Honor's valet, because Weber's wife likes him. In practice, Honor herself ended up with some, though, as she was supposed to be killed off at the end of ''At All Costs'', only for fan outcry (and a change in the series' timeline) to save her.
* Parodied and exploited in ''[[The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System]]''. Shen Quinqiu, a very [[Genre Savvy]] man who was transmigrated to a [[Troperiffic]] [[Harem Genre|stallion]] [[Chinese Web Novel|stallion webnovel]] where the protagonist has this trope as hisconstantly particularapplied "goldento finger"{{context}}him, manages to defeat a monster that has them both trapped and bound - he convinces it to attack the protagonist, knowing that the novel's universe won't let their "chosen son" to be permanently harmed. Sure enough, a ceiling column improbably drop onto the monster, which frees the protagonist and distracts the monster long enough for Shen Quinqiu to free and re-arm himself.
