Line 287:
* ''[[God of War (series)|God of War]]'': Kratos to his fellow Spartans. Even when he becomes the god of war in the second game he does not forget them and they become his most devoted and favored followers. In ''God of War 3'' the Spartans stay loyal to Kratos even in death itself—it is ''their'' strength he calls upon in this game, as opposed to the Olympians in the first game and the Titans in the second.
* Coronado De Cava lampshades this in ''[[Tales of Monkey Island]] Chapter 3: Lair of the Leviathan'' when he tells Guybrush and Morgan about his crew members (Bugeye, Moose, Santino and Noogie), "I may have been a stern leader, but I loved them like sons."
* King Volechek from ''[[Golden Sun: Dark Dawn]]'', who [[Heroic Sacrifice|gives his life]] to save his people from the [[Apocalypse How]] that [[My God, What Have I Done?|he unleashed]]
* Vilena Donton, the Guildmaster of the Fighter's Guild in ''[[The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion]]''. Bonus points since her son Viranus is part of the Guild. Unfortunately, [[Deconstructed Trope|her doting and overprotective nature causes her to make mistakes]] {{spoiler|and she reacts very badly when Viranus is killed, blaming and kicking out the most competent members of her guild (including you).}}
* ''[[World in Conflict]]'': Both Nikolai Malashenko and Vladimir Orlovsky have this trait. Malashenko often specifically refers to the men, both when praising and berating you. Orlovsky's wife writes to him saying all the women there who husbands are under his command are truly lucky because they know he cares for them, and he rebukes Malashenko sharply when he insinuates that Orlovsky isn't taking adequate steps to care for the men.
