Line 15:
** Later example: After {{spoiler|L's death at his hands,}} Light assumes control of the Kira Taskforce and presents himself to police around the world under the name "L" while still maintaining his identity as [[Serial Killer Killer|Kira]].
* Masquerade/{{spoiler|Alice}} in ''[[Bakugan]]''. {{spoiler|This is a shock even to her.}}
* ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'': {{spoiler|Selim Bradley is Pride}}.
* In a couple of arcs of ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni]]'', {{spoiler|Shion}} combines this with {{spoiler|[[Twin Switch]]}} and [[Mind Screw]]. {{spoiler|She [[Torture Cellar|imprisons]] her sister and becomes 'Mion' to the public eye, but continues to contact Keiichi as Shion.}}
* In ''[[Baccano!]]'''s ''Drugs and the Dominoes'', Claire Stanfield not only has the reputation as the world's most violent and dangerous assassin, but is also the greatest challenger to that claim, {{spoiler|Felix Walken}}. Gustavo then makes the mistake of hiring the latter to kill the former (along with his stepbrothers, the Gandors) and violent [[Hilarity Ensues]].
Line 66:
* {{spoiler|Sylvia Daisy the cruel governess}} and {{spoiler|Mrs Pouncer the wicked witch}} in ''The Midnight Folk'' by [[John Masefield]].
* 'The Last of the Venitars' takes this to the extreme. {{spoiler|Tobias, James and the Beast are all revealed to be the same person, albeit in different time periods. Francis is also revealed to be 'the old man'.}}
* Aragorn as Strider/Thorongil/whatever name he uses for adventuring and Aragorn as Elessar the Isildur's Heir in [[The Lord of the Rings]]. There's no surprise for the reader, but in-universe not many people know they are the same person. Barliman Butterbur particularly is very surprised when he learns that the King who Returned and Strider the strange vagabond he knew are one and the same.
