Line 31:
* [[Nightmare Fuel|Scapegrace]] from ''[[Daddy Long Legs (webcomic)|Daddy Long Legs]]'' has shades of this at times, with his extremely sad and depressing dreams, which indicate his childhood was not exactly nice and his family was [[Dysfunctional Family|dysfunctional]] and screwed up. Oh and he's probably having the same sickness his dad had, [[Incurable Cough of Death|showing the same symptoms]], so there's the possibility that [[Your Days Are Numbered|his days are numbered]]. And really, Harvestman and Crane are pretty much his [[Only Friend|only friends]], and even Crane thinks him to suspicious and creepy, such as the scene where he immediately thought Scapegrace to be the cause of his missing son. It's hard not to feel sorry for him.
* The titular character of ''[[Dominic Deegan]]'', who seems to run into more problems than he knows what to do with, and always thrusts himself headlong into them, to the point where he eventually traded the "crippled" role with his own younger brother. Of course, there's also a good portion of the fanbase who just want to [[What the Hell, Hero?|punch him instead]].
** Rilian, of all people, might count as one. He seems to have had all of three good friends in his life, {{spoiler|two of whom he's had to ''kill'' to save the world, both times from the same threat while being unable to prevent the death of the third}}. Nobody else seems to like or trust him because he's a spooky looking necromancer. Then there's the {{spoiler|time he spends as "Brian"}}, when he acts friendly and gregarious and just plain ''likable''; followed by the revelation that {{spoiler|''that's who he actually is at heart''. His cold [[Shoot the Dog|Dog Shooter]] nature is a facade he uses to deal with his trauma}}. His woobiedom can be seen [https://web.archive.org/web/20171012130906/http://www.dominic-deegan.com/view.php?date=2005-04-15 here].
{{quote|''' {{spoiler|Leaflette}}:''' You are as cold as always Rilian.
'''Rilian:''' My roles requires me to be cold. Otherwise I would be overcome by the immense sadness it brings me to have to kill you, {{spoiler|Leaflette}}. }}
