* In ''[[Space Quest]] 6'', Lieutenant Santiago teleports in to help Roger escape from a room filling with deadly gas, throwing him into the elevator as the piston keeping it open collapses and traps her in an exploding room {{spoiler|it was a ruse to kidnap her}}. Ignoring the question on why they didn't just teleport Roger out, if she hadn't appeared, they wouldn't have wasted precious seconds talking to each other about how they need to escape the room he was already trying to escape.

* According to Ammon Jerro in ''[[Neverwinter Nights 2]]: Mask of the Betrayer'', the previous campaign's [[Spoony Bard]] [[Our Gnomes Are Weirder|Grobnar Gnomehands]] threw himself in front of a falling stone pillar to save the Construct. The Construct happens to be an eight-foot-tall metal golem. Anything big enough to smash it would turn Grobnar into jelly. [[Alas, Poor Scrappy|And it did.]]

* Mira's backstory in ''[[Killer Instinct]]'' is a variant. Originally, she and her sister Maya were members of the Night Guard, an organization of [[Vampire Hunter]]s, until a botched attempt to slay group of vampires in the Siberian Mountains resulted in Mira sacrificing herself to save her sister from being crushed in an avalanche. Thing is, Mira wasn't dead, and was found, barely clinging to life, by the vampires, who converted her. Now a powerful vampire herself and a master of [[Blood Magic]], Mira has come to accept - possibly even enjoy - her undead condition, but now has come to regret saving Maya, who is now her sworn enemy.
