This is when someone of high status is hunted. He was on [[Cycle of Revenge|the wrong side of a feud]] -- or he was just unlucky -- or [[The Emperor]] has a [[Royal Brat|really, really, bad temper]]. Whatever the reason, he is a noble fugitive. Sometimes he flees to the protection of a rival king; sometimes he chooses to [[Going Native|live amid the wild barbarian hordes]]; sometimes he gathers an army, returns, and defeats the bad guys and has an [[Awesome Moment of Crowning]] -- whatever. Right now, he is a [[Noble Fugitive]].

* [[The Legend of Zelda|Princess Zelda]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (Video Game)|Ocarina of Time]]'' is forced to go into hiding as a ninja for seven years after [[Big Bad|Ganondorf]] takes over her kingdom.
* Many nobles in the [[Fire Emblem]] series become disenfranchised and hunted before either joining or forming a massive army to reclaim their kingdoms, starting from the original [[The Hero|Marth]], and later reflected by supporting Characters in the [[Fire Emblem Tellius (Video Game)|Tellius]] universe in Elincia of Crimea and later Sanaki of Begnion.
* Gorath from ''[[Betrayal At Krondor]]'', who turns out to have been Delekhan's rival for the throne (though he refused to compete for it) before his exile.
