Line 44:
* Played with in Gregg "Metroanime" Sharp's "Grey", another Self-Insert character from 1990s anime fanfiction. Transformed into a neutralish celestial being not unlike a daemon from Greek myth, he ended up something of a Cosmic [[Butt Monkey]], stuck in a dead-end job in a third-rate divine intervention agency, and almost never allowed true success or happiness in anything he did. Although Grey also took part in ''The Bet'', the character existed well before it.
* In the ''Symphony of the Sword'' storyline of ''[[Undocumented Features]]'', after [[Revolutionary Girl Utena|Akio Ohtori is killed by Utena Tenjou]], he is elevated by Surtur from damned soul to demon prince and set on the task of destroying the mortal forces that derailed the Ragnarok. Touga and Nanami Kiryuu, killed in the same incident, are also raised from damned souls to a demon and a succubus respectively, to serve as his <s>assistants</s> minions.
** In the same storyline, Corwin Ravenhair -- son of [[Ah! My Goddess|Skuld Ravenhair]] and the (mortal) Midgard-Knight [[Self-Insert Fic|Ben Hutchins]] -- must undergo a Trial of Ascension before he can claim his mother's divine heritage and become a god. This he does when he becomes the [[Magic Knight Rayearth|Pillar of Cephiro]] to keep the not-yet-dead Akio Ohtori from seizing its power.:
{{quote| "I am Corwin Ravenhair of the Aesir," he announced, "son of the Midgard-Knight and of She Who Builds Tomorrow; Watcher O'er the World-Engine, Cavalier of Three Worlds, Chooser of the Slain. I am the Rune Knight of Iron. I am the Pillar of the Tenth World. All that Cephiro is, I am."}}
*:* Averted with Corwin's cousin Hiroshi, son of Keiichi and Belldandy Morisato, who declines an ascension that he likewise qualifies for, preferring to live as a mortal.
