Reluctant Ruler: Difference between revisions

(added example)
Line 28:
* In the ''[[The Lord of the Rings (film)|Lord of the Rings]]'' movies, Aragorn refuses to pursue the throne until he absolutely has to to save Middle-Earth. In the original books, taking the throne was on his to do list... but not very high up.
* King George VI in ''[[The King's Speech]]'' (see [[Real Life]], below).
* From ''[[Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken]]''; the title character is able to adjust to - and enjoy - her powers rather quickly, but the revelation that she is a princess who is expected to lead her people - and lead them into battle against their enemies, the mermaids - is far less appealing to her. To that end, when she meets Chelsea, a mermaid who claims she intends to establish peace between the two societies, Ruby quickly believes her and does her best to help. {{spoiler|This proves a horrible mistake, as Chelsea is lying and only uses Ruby as her [[Unwitting Pawn]] .}}
