Would Hurt a Child: Difference between revisions

Line 299:
* All the protagonists in the ''[[Mother]]'' series are children (so obviously, plenty of the enemies that battle them will be adults), but perhaps the most notable specific example of this trope is in ''EarthBound'' when a bunch of policemen beat up Ness ''just because he wants to leave his hometown.''
* [[Dragon Age]] is a rare game which lets a player character do this, as you can chose to murder Arl Eamon's son rather than try and help him. You might argue that it's a mercy-killing, but you're still killing a child.
* The horribly misnamed Grelod the Kind from ''[[Elder Scrolls|Elder Scrolls V: Skyrm]]''. A cruel woman who runs the [[Orphanage of Fear|Honorhall Orphanage]], she's so abusive that her charges are actually trying to contact the [[Carnival of Killers|Dark Brotherhood]] in order to get rid of her, and mistake the Dragonborne for one of them. You aren't (yet) but it's pretty easy to help them, as Grelod doesn't fare very well against someone who can fight back. Of course, while ''she'' isn't much, getting rid of her starts a far-darker questline involving the ''real'' Dark Brotherhood...
