* In ''[[The Order of the Stick]]'', two members of the [[Redshirt Army]] offer to hold back a squad of oncoming hobgoblins in order to give their leader and the heroes enough time to escape. Elan, being [[Genre Savvy]] to a fault, knows that they're doubly doomed, and even tells them so in an attempt to dissuade them. They manage to save themselves by [[Red Herring Shirt|giving themselves just enough characterization]] during the battle, and finally even to downgrade a fatal wound to a minor one by telling each other [[Nominal Importance|their names]], Kazumi Kato and Daigo. Daigo wisely decides to withhold his last name for a future emergency. As they've both managed to get married, reached sixth level (a "booster level" in any class), and step up to the ranks of [[Blue Blood|nobility]] afterwards, it's proving to be a prudent move.
** He even started to reveal his last name: I am Daigo D-(door slams in face)
** During the Battle of Azure City, Lien single-handedly defends [[Supporting Leader|Hinjo's]] personal ship from the hobgoblin hordes, both saving it for his escape, and protecting the refugees onboard. In a subversion of this trope, she survives, protecting the ship long enough for Hinjo and the Order to get to it and for them all to escape.
* Torg tries to do this during the "That Which Redeems" arc of ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]''. He even [http://www.sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/041102 quotes Gandalf]. But then he decides to just [http://www.sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/041122 push the bad guy down the hill] and outrun him with the rest of his group.

* In the Festival of Veils arc of [[Dubious Company]], [[Clingy Jealous Girl|Mary]] and [[Defrosting Ice Queen|Sue]] do this after the [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity|Queen]] threatens to arrest and torture [[The Heart|Elly]] for the King's disappearance.  Actually the three of them are [[Prince and Pauper|mistaking]] the King for Elly and vice versa. Perhaps the first time Mary has ever [[Kubrick Stare|looked]] more badass than her sister.
