Sometimes Sibling Rivalry can get a little… intense. Maybe one who Missed the Call gets overly envious that the other has become The Chosen One, maybe grand powers or knighthood run in the family and one just happens to have been tempted to The Dark Side, maybe one of them betrayed their master or father and the other has to stop him, or maybe it's just Because Destiny Says So, dammit. Whatever the case may be, now one's the hero and one's the villain, and they must do battle. Commence the angst. For whatever reason, the older sibling is almost always the villainous one. Probably because being younger and less experienced makes the younger sibling the underdog, whom we are supposed to root for. And because the Aloof Big Brother always looks eviler. The major exception is the case of The Evil Prince, who is usually the younger of two princes, and who will do anything to make sure he succeeds their monarch parent instead of his brother (or in the case of the older brother having already taken the throne, to take the throne for himself directly). It's not always siblings — Childhood Friends get to experience all the same woes from beating up someone they grew up with — but there's a certain poetry when they're actually related. For similar reasons, the traditional setup is for the duo to be of the same sex: either brothers or sisters. In cases where the Cain turns out to be The Un-Favourite, he's likely to be viewed from a more sympathetic angle. Of course, this would partially also depend on the sibling's attitude in all this. Sometimes the siblings will become The Only One Allowed to Defeat You. If the hero isn't aware of the relation until late in the series, it's also a Luke, I Am Your Father. We Used to Be Friends and Evil Former Friend also count if the siblings in question were former friends with each other. Contrast Sibling Team. Also contrast Bash Brothers, where the two people (who may or may not be brothers) beat up other people instead of each other. When Cain is gunning for mom and dad instead of Abel see Antagonistic Offspring. The trope title, of course, comes from the biblical story of the first siblings to exist. Cain as character has his own trope. See also Name of Cain. When There Is Another, compare Cain and Abel and Seth. May overlap with Big Brother Bully if said bully is truly malignant. If such a situation turns lethal, it's Sibling Murder. If not a Good vs. Evil situation, see Sibling Rivalry. Not to be confused with the two recurring Character Archetypes found in the Fire Emblem series. |

Aquaman (2018) is largely a story of the conflict between Aquaman and his half-brother Orm. What makes it interesting is that it is kind of difficult to tell who is the Cain; both men are paragons of their respective father's culture and neither is flawless or unsympathetic and no matter how you cut it, Aquaman's birthright claim to the throne of Atlantis is dodgy at best. The ending also hints that the two will eventually reconcile, which does indeed happen in the sequel, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. | |

Lemongrab and Lemongrab 2 in Adventure Time are technically clones of each other, but address each other as "brother" and have a sibling-like dynamic. However, the older Lemongrab grows more antagonistic, and increasingly responds to the younger sibling's attempt to resist his cruel whims with violence, including attempts to kill and eat Lemongrab 2. | |

In a rarer example of the younger sibling being the murderous one, Thrill Me has a song entitled, "The Plan", which is almost entirely devoted to the variety of ways Richard has thought up to kill his brother John. He doesn't, but only because Nathan points out that this trope makes for a really obvious motive. | |

In episode 7, Giovanni shows up with 2 German soldiers at Rossellini’s school, where an injured Mario is being nursed to health, to arrest his brother. However, he pulls a Heel–Face Turn when he realizes the Germans want to execute Mario, rather than just arrest him. | |

In The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, if Gloss and Cashmere had survived to the end of the Quarter Quell, this would have been their fate. It's stated that the siblings share a close and loving relationship, so it's possible that they would've refused (like Katniss and Peeta) and preferred to die together instead of committing fratricide for a society that's already betrayed them. The Capitol citizens are at least somewhat horrified as well. Gloss and Cashmere are likely the first siblings to be pitted against each other in the same Games, and the pair visibly play this up for sympathy with hopes of the Quarter Quell being cancelled. | |

Zeus and Hades in Hercules. Hades jealously loathes his older brother, the benevolent Zeus, because the latter is loved by all of the other gods while Everybody Hates Hades, combined with being stuck as lord of the Underworld. Bitter and envious of his brother's success, he decides to overthrow Zeus and kill baby Hercules so he can install himself as Top God and king of Olympus. He's widely despised on Olympus, and it's done to show how estranged and out-of-touch he is with them. They aren't happy at his appearance at Hercules's birthday, and his lame pun is met with scowls. But when Zeus makes a similar lame joke about his workaholic nature, the pantheon bursts into laughter, while Hades storms out in anger. | |

Umineko: When They Cry has four siblings in one Big, Screwed-Up Family. It also subverts the usual "brothers or sisters" rivalry. Krauss is largely resented by his younger siblings, particularly Eva, who actually takes her resentment out on Krauss's wife, Natsuhi. All four of them are pretty messed up, though, due to being raised by Kinzo, and at certain points, even Krauss and Rudolf admit that they wish they'd been better older brothers to Rosa. | |

Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire: Sometimes pits Dominic and Gregory against their necromancer brother Jacob. Early on, there was an interesting twist: Dominic hated Jacob, but Gregory still wanted to believe the best of him. And eventually they do put aside their differences, but remain apart. Luna's relationship with her sisters was also like this for a while, but the three surviving sisters eventually decided to try and at least tolerate each other after the rest of their family got themselves killed with their petty fighting. |

Robot and Monster has Robot and his Jerkass older brother Gart, who considers himself the Always Someone Better to Robot and will do anything to run afoul of him, such as buying the main duo's apartment and using his power to wildly lower and raise the temperature or creating a Pole-O team to go up against his, then using a blatantly false sob story to garner sympathy. Over the show's single season, Gart got hit by Laser-Guided Karma at least twice. | |

Dracula Untold: Vlad and Mehmed are not related by blood, but they were raised under the same household and call each other "brother" at the start of the movie. Mehmed wants to take Vlad's boys and turn them into his Slave Mooks to launch an invasion into Europe, forcing Vlad to become a vampire to protect his people. Historically, Mehmed was much older than Vlad the Impaler and was made much younger in the movie possibly to combine him with Vlad's real-life brother Radu. | |

In Tsarevitch Ivan, the Fire Bird and the Gray Wolf, the envious older brothers kill the youngest, Prince Ivan. The talking wolf puts him back together and restores him to life, and they get word to his father, who turns his oldest sons into menial servants and make Ivan his heir. | |

In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) Shredder's younger brother, Lt. Kazuo Saki, is a member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department; the two brothers despise each other, Kazuo rather embarrassed to have such a man as a sibling. (In most continuities, "Saki" is actually Shredder's given name, his family name being "Oroku"—placed before the given name, as is done in Japan—making this version something of an error compared to other continuities.) | |

In the 2003 series, adoptive brothers Hamato Yoshi and Yukio Mashimi become this when Mashimi, in a fit of jealousy, kills fellow adoptee and love triangle member Tang Shen. Afterwards, Yoshi kills Mashimi in revenge. (This is an adaptation of the story of Hamato Yoshi and Oroku Nagi from the original Turtles story, which led to quite the Cycle of Revenge when Nagi's younger brother Oroku Saki, who would later become the Shredder, murdered both Yoshi and Shen in vengeance for Yoshi killing Nagi.) | |

The 2012 cartoon versions of Hamato Yoshi and Oroku Saki were raised as brothers and rivals before becoming Splinter and Shredder, which would be further complicated by their shared love of Tang Shen and Saki's discovery of his birth family having died to the Hamato clan. After Tang Shen dies in a final battle between the adopted brothers and Yoshi goes missing, Saki adopted Shen and Yoshi's daughter Miwa and raised her to be the show's version of Karai as revenge for having Tang Shen taken from him. When he finds out that Yoshi is still alive and in New York as Splinter, Saki reignited their rivalry as the Shredder. After Karai finds out the truth and defects to her father's side, Shredder's hatred becomes so intense that he doesn't care if the world ends as long as he is able to kill Splinter. This is literally what happens! After those events are undone by Time Travel, Shredder is once again able to kill Spinter, this time for good, only for Leonardo to return the favor. This is defied and zigzagged between the Turtles and Karai when she's revealed to be the biological daughter of Splinter as she's an antagonistic until she finds out the truth |

Richard, Edward, and George in Richard III. They stuck together during the revolution of the previous play, which saw Edward ascend the throne, but Richard has his heart set on the crown and won't let his older brothers stand in the way. Since pretty much all the English kings have been part of one Big, Screwed-Up Family, most of the histories see some permutation of second cousins twice-removed competing for the throne or other. |

RWBY: Twin siblings Qrow and Raven Branwen have opposing ideologies; Qrow stands up for the greater good while Raven is willing to sacrifice innocents and her own family for her own survival. If it's any indication, four of the saner members of the Big Bad Ensemble are surprised when Raven tells them that she'll only accept an Enemy Mine if they kill her brother. While it is ultimately the set up for her plan, Raven notably doesn't care that Qrow is in the crossfire and fights him herself, while he in turn furiously disowns her for siding with Salem. | |

The main antagonist of Loved and Lost is Prince Jewelius, Princess Cadance's younger cousin. Though he's Cadance's favourite cousin to the point that she regards him as her younger brother, he has secretly hated her and their aunt Princess Celestia for years due to their superior popularity. He strikes a partnership with Queen Chrysalis to invade Equestria on Cadance's wedding day, double-crosses the former, and overthrows the princesses by scapegoating them as well as Shining Armor and Twilight's friends for the invasion. Though he sentences them all into exile, he soon lures them into a trap because his desire to personally murder Cadance overwrites his carefulness. | |

In Shadow Raiders, Femur arranged for his brother to be locked away in the prison planet, a hellhole where the Cluster's worst war criminals were sent to, where he was subjected to horrific tortures and expected not to survive. Considering Femur had to bribe the soldiers that were dragging him away so he wouldn't be executed, Sternum had it coming for A: trying it and B: not using more loyal guards. And from what we later see, while Sternum is less Obviously Evil, he isn't actually any better. | |

A rather lighthearted example appears in Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. The imaginary friends Imaginary Man and Nemesis (short for Nemesister) were created by a boy and his Bratty Half-Pint sister respectively — the sister created Nemesis just to bug her brother and Imaginary Man. Their feud continues after the now grown-up siblings adopt Imaginary Man and Nemesis for their children. Ironically enough, the brother adopts Nemesis thinking she would be the perfect friend for his daughter and the sister adopts Imaginary Man thinking he would be the perfect friend for her son. Terrence and Mac can be viewed this way. |

The SCP Foundation has two entities registered as SCP-073 and SCP-076, respectively "Cain" and "Abel" (along with a SCP-336 "Lilith" who refuses to confirm or deny any relationship with them) with semi-complementary powers (Cain is an otherwise pleasant man with metal limbs who destroys any plant-based matter on contact, and anyone who hurts him receives the same injuries; Able is an eternally resurrecting and extremely deadly Implacable Man who became a Psycho for Hire for the Foundation out of "boredom"). Able is still murderously angry at Cain (becoming violent at the sight of Cain's Oth, although he shouldn't be able to know what it is if God gave it to Cain after Able was killed...) They're both pretty much immortal. They've probably met again long before the SCP found them, and sometime after The Bible's story with them. | |

Pokémon World Tour: United: Rose Jenny's relationship with her eldest sister, Acantha, devolves into this at the end of Act Two, with Acantha as the Cain to Rose's Abel. They were always on the outs with one another, as Acantha is the oldest and most serious-minded of Rose's sisters, while Rose herself is the Black Sheep baby of the family who considers Acantha the "mean sister". When Rose pushes Acantha a step too far after confronting Acantha about her possibly being a Rocket, Acantha calls their mother and informs her that Rose stole her starter Pokemon, Bango the Growlithe, after he washed out of the Academy. It comes to a head when Acantha challenges Rose to a one-on-one battle using their Growlithes, with the stakes being whether Rose is arrested or pardoned for her actions. After Rose wins handily, she is warned by her mother and grandmother that Acantha will not take what happened lying down, and will almost certainly use any connections she has to make Rose's life miserable. | |

Darkonda teleports in and kills Dementian on the spot, to the disbelief of both Ecliptor and Dementian himself. Even Darkonda can't bring himself to look Dementian in the face as he dies...but he gets over it pretty quickly. | |

Karna and Arjuna from The Mahabharata of Hindu Mythology are these, though they don't realize it till the end of the Mahabharata (sort of a Luke, I Am Your Father moment). By that time, it's too late and Karna is dead. Actually, Karna knew it earlier than that; by this time Arjuna has insulted him and he has received nothing but kindness from Arjuna's enemies, besides he resents his mother for abandoning him at birth and taking Arjuna's side. |

Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts has this between Long Lost Siblings Kipo and Scarlemagne in the second season, with the latter being the Cain. In an interesting variant, the Cain holds no ill will towards their Abel; all their hate is focused solely on the favoritism of their parents, namely for breaking their promise to escape with him from the Science Bunker, and failing to look for him after its destruction. At one point, Kipo even calls their father out for this when he attempts to justify himself. | |

In Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, Raiden admits Shao Khan is his brother. (This is a non-canon event created specifically for the film.) This is also mentioned in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, but again, that game is non-canon. | |

In The Proposition, Charlie Burns is blackmailed into killing his evil older brother Arthur, using Mikey, the younger, "simple" brother, as leverage. Ironically, their names start with the initials C and A. Though Charlie is the Abel and Arthur the Cain. He eventually does, but by now Mikey's already dead, and it's just because Arthur deserves to die. | |

In Homestuck, the Cherub Caliborn loathes his "sister" and split personality Calliope. He murdered her dreamself before he even started his session of Sburb. As Lord English, he is still hung up on his hatred of his sister. He destroys entire dream bubbles — tearing reality apart in the process — hunting his sister's ghost so he can finally make her Deader than Dead. Arguably, everything bad in the entire story can be traced back to Caliborn's desire to destroy his sister and everything his sister loved. | |

Yin-Yang: Evilseed and Moss Man respectively, though Evilseed doesn't want to kill his brother, it's just in their nature to fight as the embodiments of the two halves of Eternia. A non-biological case with Randor and Skeletor since they were raised as brothers. Skeletor wants to kill and torture not just Randor, but his entire family while Randor originally wanted to reason with him before he sent Adora to Despondos, at which point whatever love he had for his adoptive brother died. |

The Order of the Stick: Elan and Nale. Nale is confused when he finds out that Roy and Julia Greenhilt actually get along. He thinks this trope is normal. And so does his girlfriend. And Redcloak and Right-Eye, in a more heart-rending and sympathetic example. Redcloak didn't kill his brother over rivalry, it was because of his Fatal Flaw. Elan created a situation like this between his puppet Banjo the Clown and another puppet Giggles the evil Clown god of slapstick. Since deities are powered by belief, the two of them are actually gods now that an orc tribe worships Giggles and Banjo is his equally powerful rival. Elan liked the orc high-priest of Giggles' suggestion that the two were brothers. |

‘’The Thebaid’’: Polynices and Eteocles are driven to wage war and kill each other each other due to a curse put on them by their father, the intervention of Jupiter, and their hunger for the throne. Of the two, Eteocles is the more like Cain since he betrays the other first, by denying Polynices his promised year as king. That said, Polynices isn't as innocent as Abel despite all his brother's villainy. He manipulates the people of Argos to die on his behalf and although he's the protagonist, he's the protagonist of a tragedy, so that's actually points against him being some innocent Abel. | |

The Owl House: The Clawthorne sisters have a pretty fierce rivalry during season 1, with Lilith trying to forcibly induct her younger sister Eda into the Emperor's Coven after Emperor Belos promised her he'd be able to heal Eda's curse. In the season 1 finale, it's revealed that Lilith was the one who cursed Eda in the first place to ensure she'd win a place in the Emperor's Coven, believing it would be a temporary thing, and not the debilitating illness Eda has been dealing with for decades now. When Belos reveals he never planned to heal Eda and tries to have her petrified, Lilith defects from the Emperor's Coven, saves Eda, shares her curse between the two of them, and tries to mend their broken relationship. Perhaps the most intense sibling rivalry in the whole show is between Caleb and Philip Wittebane, a rare example where it's the younger sibling that becomes evil. Caleb raised Philip after the death of their parents, and the two moved to Gravesfield, a town of witch hunters. There, Caleb met an actual witch named Evelyn, and moved away to the Demon Realm to enter a romantic relationship with her. Philip, believing Caleb had been abducted by an evil witch, followed them, and upon finding them, became so enraged at his brother's perceived betrayal that he stabbed Caleb to death. He then stole Caleb's body and used it to make a very long line of Grimwalkers, in an attempt to make a "better version" of his brother that wouldn't betray him. Hunter, his latest Grimwalker, grew up completely isolated from the outside world, and was nearly murdered by his "uncle" after discovering the truth. |

Dungeons & Dragons: Heironeous and Hextor, the gods of Lawful Good and Lawful Evil respectively, are brothers, and sworn enemies. Their appearances are radically different: Heironeous appears as a tall blonde human and Hextor, by contrast, is a six-armed ogreish monstrosity. Myths suggest that Hextor may have once been as handsome as his brother, and possibly even a force of Good, but was corrupted and degenerated into his current, ugly form. Bahamut, the Lawful Good god of noble dragons, is bitter enemies with his sister Tiamat, the Lawful Evil goddess of evil dragons. They were both created by Io, True Neutral god of all dragonkind, but were not his first creations - his first child was named Vorel, a physically-perfect being with the friendly demeanor, and overall intelligence, of a puppy. Bahamut and Tiamat were closer to what Io was going for, but the two were instant rivals for Io's favor. Tiamat tried to get Bahamut banished by tricking Vorel into destroying some of Bahamut's treasures, claiming her brother flew into a rage, and then murdering Vorel and framing Bahamut for the deed. But Io was patient enough to investigate the matter fully, so it was Tiamat who got banished. Tiamat became the creator of all matter of evil draconic creatures, while Bahamut dedicated this existence to opposing his sibling. Despite this, Io still holds out hope that someday Bahamut and Tiamat will mate and produce the true breed of dragons he envisioned. In the Forgotten Realms setting you have the twin goddesses Selûne and Shar. Having supposedly existed since the dawn of the universe and having been so close as to think of themselves as one being, they split apart on the issue of whether giving life to the barren universe would be a good idea. Selûne expresses her views on this matter by creating the Sun, which causes Shar to go Ax-Crazy on her and the entire universe, forcing Selûne to smack her with a Heroic Sacrifice bomb. Millenia later, Selûne's dogma urges you to trust in her radiance and know that all love alive under her light shall know her blessing, while the dogma of Shar features the promotion of misery for its own sake and the direct order to destroy anything Selûne might possibly be related to, in hopes of one day tearing apart the entire universe back into the sweet nothingness it was before this whole pesky 'life' thing. Evidently, they are now not so close as to think of themselves as one being, and the family reunions must be very awkward. In the Ravenloft setting, this situation is what doomed Strahd von Zarovich, making him a vampire and the darklord of Barovia. When the beautiful maiden Tatyana rejected him in favor of his younger brother Sergei, Strahd developed jealousy of Sergei that eventually blossomed into hatred. He eventually made a pact with some dark entity (Strahd claims with death itself) and on the day of Sergei and Tatyana's wedding, he murdered his brother, and then tried to pursue Tatyana, only for her to flee from him and throw herself from the walls of Castle Ravenloft. This horrid act cursed Strahd forever, transforming him into a vampire, making Barovia the first recorded domain of Ravenloft with him as its lord, and tormented by images of Tatyana (or women who look just like her) ever since. 5e also makes this the relationship of the three hags of Tepest. Lorinda is the Cain, having betrayed and imprisoned her sisters to use them as a power source. |

Bob and George: Bob likes to burn things and George likes ice cream. Plus at the end, it is revealed that this was all a plot to ensure that the hero George would kill the villain Bob if he had to. Since robots from the same creator are termed siblings, a good number of other fights. |

Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars temporarily has this between Phineas and a Sithinatored Ferb. In the main series, Doofenshmirtz hates his younger brother Roger for being the favorite of their mother while Doof was subjected to one of the most absurd Hilariously Abusive Childhoods in media. As such, when he's not trying to take over the Tri-State Area Doof is looking to publicly humiliate Roger in some petty attempt at revenge which ends up backfiring in some way or another. |

In Avatar: The Last Airbender, the royal family of the Fire Nation exhibits this with two sets of siblings. As above, in both cases, the younger sibling is the outright sociopath of the two. On one occasion Azula outright attempts to kill Zuko her brother, as she shouts, "I'm about to celebrate becoming an only child!" Later comics have Zuko despise that their relationship is one of battle and tears; he is tired of fighting his own sister in near death scenarios. When Zuko irrevocably proves to Azula that he does care for her as a person, it actually triggers a genuine sense of sisterly care from Azula, although this did not necessarily prevent further conflict between the two. It remains to be seen whether the two ever truly reconciled or not. It can also be inferred that preventing this trope is the reason why Zuko has only one child. And it is unknown whether this trope is in effect among Izumi's two children. In season 3, Sozin and Roku are revealed to have been as close as brothers in their youth. Then Roku went away to become the Avatar, and Sozin became Fire Lord and decided that what the world really needed was to be conquered by him. They'd grown apart rather, and Roku kept shutting Sozin down flat whenever he brought these ideas up. Eventually Roku violently halted an invasion of the Earth Kingdom, which Sozin interpreted as a permanent breach of their old friendship… and therefore betrayed Roku to his death during a volcanic eruption, leaving him free to launch his world conquest. And in The Legend of Korra, we have Amon/Noatak and Tarrlok. Neither's exactly good, but the younger, Tarrlok, is much closer to the heroes' side by the end of things than Amon is. Book 2 has Korra's father Tonraq and his brother Unalaq, the latter going to various lengths to eliminate the former and bring Korra to his side. |

In the Forgotten Realms setting you have the twin goddesses Selûne and Shar. Having supposedly existed since the dawn of the universe and having been so close as to think of themselves as one being, they split apart on the issue of whether giving life to the barren universe would be a good idea. Selûne expresses her views on this matter by creating the Sun, which causes Shar to go Ax-Crazy on her and the entire universe, forcing Selûne to smack her with a Heroic Sacrifice bomb. Millenia later, Selûne's dogma urges you to trust in her radiance and know that all love alive under her light shall know her blessing, while the dogma of Shar features the promotion of misery for its own sake and the direct order to destroy anything Selûne might possibly be related to, in hopes of one day tearing apart the entire universe back into the sweet nothingness it was before this whole pesky 'life' thing. Evidently, they are now not so close as to think of themselves as one being, and the family reunions must be very awkward. | |

Slightly Damned has an adoptive variant with Buwaro and Sakido as different kinds of Abel and Iratu as the Cain. Buwaro is kind-hearted and tries to help others, Sakido wants to make-up for scaring and abandoning Buwaro when he was a toddler as well as the things she's done in Hell and ends up dying getting him and his friend Rhea out of Hell. Iratu, on the other hand, became a General for the army of hell and leads them in an attack to conquer Medius, he still loves Sakido but hates Buwaro and when he learns she died for him he tries to kill Buwaro himself. Kieri and Kazai also veer into this route; while they love each other, Kazai has bought into the Angel-Supremacist cult ruled by the now-corrupt Heaven while Kieri was always doubtful about it. Kazai's inability to convince Kieri and the other angels that Heaven is unquestionably good (and that the Warrior Class is even gooder and the Angelic Council is equal to Gaia) and Hell is unquestionably evil leads him to (try to) beat her and her demon boyfriend until they admit his 'truth'. Her being better at combat through Dirty Fighting, despite his angelic teachers telling him he was always a better fighter than Kieri, just makes him angrier. |

In The Flash (2014) fanfic Ice cold deception, Nora West-Allen is the Cain to her half-sister Allison Dawn Allen's Abel. Allison was conceived when Barry had an affair with Caitlin while they were both under the influence of a metahuman with the power to remove a person's inhibitions. Barry and Iris' marriage fell apart as a result of the affair even though Barry and Caitlin weren't in their right minds at the time, leading to Barry and Caitlin becoming closer as they prepared to raise their future daughter together. Iris tried to kill Allison by poisoning Caitlin while she was pregnant out of jealousy, leading to Caitlin's death. Blaming Allison for her parents' relationship falling apart, Nora worked with the Reverse-Flash to prevent Barry and Caitlin from being affected by the metahuman that started this, knowing that doing so could erase Allison from existance. In the end, Nora is erased from existance as a result of abusing her powers to change the timeline and an author's note states that Allison will still be born. | |

In New Vindicators, siblings are often at odds, its just that kind of series. Phobos and Deimos are twin brothers, and Deimos wants to be the one who kills Phobos, while Phobos' problems are less personal, and more because Deimos is a bad guy. In the European Academy, this pops up again, with the younger sibling being the evil one, wishing to make their older sibling suffer as much as possible, rather than outright killing them. | |

When Cortez rejects Mendoza's plans to gain power and wealth, a furious Mendoza betrays brother, taking control of the Muertos and leaving Cortez blind. Years later, he hires the Domination Guy to kill Cortez, and when that fails, he concocts an elaborate plan to enter the House and finish his brother off. Played with when Team Dad Westheimer kills Mendoza in the final challenge, saving Cortez's life. However, Cortez (who had sworn to have his revenge on his brother for blinding him) is furious, and vows to avenge Mendoza's death. |

The Better Bones AU has several examples besides the ones from canon Warrior Cats Tangleburr and Runningnose are loyal supporters of Brokenstar and later Tigerstar, but Deerfoot heroically rebels against them. Gorseclaw with his siblings Ripplestar and Spottedpelt, though it's a case where neither sibling is really evil; Ripplestar, with Spottedpelt's help, is attacking all the other Clans, even going as far so as doing so at a gathering, but only because he wants the territory they refused to give willingly to shelter SkyClan, and Gorseclaw betrays him because he thinks the bloodshed and attacking a gathering is going too far rather than not caring about SkyClan. Hollyleaf and Jayfeather's relationship devolves into this as well, as Hollyleaf increasingly breaks down emotionally and becomes concerned with enacting justice and proving herself as a hero by punishing wrongdoers, leading to her coming into conflict with and eventually trying to kill Jayfeather for his defiance of StarClan. Ferncloud confronts her brother Ashfur, the Big Bad of the arc, in the rewritten version of Warrior Cats: The Broken Code, fighting him as a Light in the Mist and taking Graystripe's role of being killed by him in the confrontation. |

Starfire and Blackfire of Teen Titans (2003), who still look like a parallel of Queens Elizabeth and Mary Tudor, even though Glen Murakami admits that they watered down the much more intense rivalry of the original comics into a more kid-friendly, "I Dream of Jeannie/Bewitched kind of way." If you're even slightly familiar with the comics, you'll know what he's talking about. | |

The Undertaker and Kane, who alternate between hating each other and teaming up as the "Brothers of Destruction". Again, Kane is the younger brother (despite being bigger than the Undertaker), and usually the heel when they feud. In fact, Undertaker's original name was Cain the Undertaker. Taker's more identified with death and lightning, Kane is identified with fire and which one set the house fire that killed their parent varies on which one is face and heel. Fridge Logic logic suggests Kane would be the more likely, given he is associated with fire and all. | |

Several examples in the Superman story Superman of 2499: The Great Confrontation: Adam and Alan, the sons of the former Superman.

He holds a huge grudge. Klar -the former Superman- and his brother George. George also resented his older brother becoming Superman. Unlike Adam, he gets over it and makes amends with Klar. |

ReBoot's principal villains, Megabyte and Hexadecimal, are brother and sister, yet they are always trying to kill each other. When an incredulous Bob asks why, Hexadecimal casually explains that it's just "sibling rivalry." Thanks to a Retcon, Megabyte and Matrix fit this too. Matrix's dad, Wellman Matrix, is responsible for the "birth" of Megabyte. Megabyte even calls the nullified Wellman "father" so this makes Megabyte and Matrix brothers. Good thing Matrix doesn't know this since he has a problem with viruses. |

In the Kim Possible episode "The Ron Factor", Global Justice chief Dr. Director and supervillain Gemini are (fraternal) twins, and the usual opposition between hero and villain clearly takes a back seat to their personal issues (particularly, Gemini's annoyance that Dr. Director won't defer to him as the older -- by four minutes -- sibling). | |

In Tangled: The Series we have two characters who are related via adoption and spend most of the series not realizing their familial connection. Their relationship was actually a good one prior to discovering this connection — indeed, part of the reason it becomes antagonistic is because of this revelation. The characters are Rapunzel and Cassandra (who is revealed to be Gothel's biological daughter). When Rapunzel tries to convince Cassandra to stand down by pointing out that this effectively makes them sisters, Cassandra scoffs at the idea and claims that this simply reinforces how Rapunzel has overshadowed Cassandra her entire life (Gothel abandoned Cassandra so she could keep Rapunzel). This is occurring right when Cassandra has decided to pull a Face–Heel Turn by claiming the Moonstone. While Rapunzel still seems to want to fix things, the relationship between the adoptive sisters is now an antagonistic one. | |

Not to the level of homicidal tendencies that we normally see on this trope (as is a show from The Disney Afternoon) but the relationship between Big Bad Duke Igthorn in Adventures of the Gummi Bears with his twin brother Victor is of total animosity as one is a vile traitor and the other is a heroic and loyal knight of the King. | |

They're not related by blood, but Marcus Aurelius considered Maximus the son he should have had instead of the ambitious Commodus and nominates him as regent. Commodus also considers Maximus his non-blood brother, as both try to win Aurelius' favor and Lucilla's love. However, Commodus resorts to murdering his father and arranging to rape his sister, while setting up Maximus' death several times. Discussed near the end: | |

In Witch Hunter, the rivalry between the three princes of the Bairong Empire gets very intense, even though one of them doesn't actually want the throne… one guess what happens. In a heartbreaking twist, the only actual fatality so far was a Mercy Kill done by one brother to free the other from a Grand Theft Me inflicted on him by their father. The third sibling is furious at the killer brother for doing this, while the killer hates his surviving sibling for allowing this horrible situation to happen in the first place. | |

An adopted example: Franziska von Karma from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney has some severe issues with her adopted "little brother" Miles Edgeworth. She's determined to outdo him in nearly everything, especially prosecuting, and is unhappy that she won't get to prosecute before he does (even though she's seven years younger than he is). Edgeworth doesn't seem to care very much, which only infuriates Franziska more. | |

Bob's Burgers has the Fischoeder brothers—the criminal, borderline-sociopathic Big Brother Bully Calvin and the long-suffering, oft-belittled Butt-Monkey Felix. Looks can be deceiving, however—Calvin is Abel, while Felix is Cain. Felix is responsible for Calvin's missing left eye, and the Season 4 finale depicts Felix attempting to drown Calvin under the pier. Moreover, Calvin's nonchalance about the situation implies that even outside of the eye incident, this isn't the first time Felix has tried to murder his brother. | |

The Pony POV Series Dark World Series has a few examples. The backstory has two symbolic examples — Twilight Tragedy and Queen Cadence and Traitor Dash and Scootaloo — while the present has Angry Pie and Apple Pie as a more traditional blood relation (albeit distantly related). In the Shining Armor Arc, it eventually turns out that Makarov and Dima are half-brothers, with the former being the Cain. The former is also the Cain in a more symbolic relationship: when he starts warping reality to wipe out his enemies and make himself the grand hero of the world, he kills all the Changelings, including Chrysalis; both Makarov and Chrysalis were created by Pandora, making them siblings of sorts. Of course in this case Chrysalis is just as much of monster as her "brother". On that note, it's revealed that Chrysalis was created from the Shadow of Existence of the original Cadenza, while Cadence was made from her Light. This makes them "twin sisters", as Chrysalis puts it, making her the Cain to Cadence's Abel. |

Way before A Triangle in the Stars begins, Bill was the Cain to Gabriel's Abel, though they initially got along excellently. The triangle just got fed up with how he was treated and how Gabe was so loved, and Gabriel in fact grew to be condescending towards his older brother. Instead of murder, the "Abel" was simply imprisoned. In the present, the school arc, the roles switch, for obviously different reasons. Interestingly, it's the Abel who kills the Cain. | |

In the Godzilla MonsterVerse fanfiction Abraxas (Hrodvitnon), San — who undergoes Character Development including a Heel–Face Turn after being severed from Ghidorah and merging with Vivienne Graham — becomes the Abel. His brothers, Ichi and Ni, are the Cain. San forms a Sibling Team bond with Vivienne that he never had with his brothers, who never gave him a shred of affection. It's also worth noting, whilst Ichi, Ni and San were originally born at roughly the same time, San is considered the youngest "brother" among the trio. | |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) Shredder's younger brother, Lt. Kazuo Saki, is a member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department; the two brothers despise each other, Kazuo rather embarrassed to have such a man as a sibling. (In most continuities, "Saki" is actually Shredder's given name, his family name being "Oroku"—placed before the given name, as is done in Japan—making this version something of an error compared to other continuities.) In the 2003 series, adoptive brothers Hamato Yoshi and Yukio Mashimi become this when Mashimi, in a fit of jealousy, kills fellow adoptee and love triangle member Tang Shen. Afterwards, Yoshi kills Mashimi in revenge. (This is an adaptation of the story of Hamato Yoshi and Oroku Nagi from the original Turtles story, which led to quite the Cycle of Revenge when Nagi's younger brother Oroku Saki, who would later become the Shredder, murdered both Yoshi and Shen in vengeance for Yoshi killing Nagi.) The 2003 series also has Hun and Karai, both view the Shredder as their adoptive father (in Hun's case, this is only implied, whereas, Karai explicitly refers to the Shredder as "father"). Yet Hun absolutely despises Karai, refusing to serve her, when the Shredder is believed to be dead. He even sabotages a mission where Karai is tasked to execute the Turtles, by freeing Leo, and making him fight Karai, saying he might spare Splinter if Leo succeeds in killing her and in a later episode, he is forced to go rescue Karai from Agent Bishop by the Shredder, which he only does out of loyalty for the Shredder, even briefly gloating to her face how he always wanted to see her dead but now he must rescue her. The 2012 cartoon versions of Hamato Yoshi and Oroku Saki were raised as brothers and rivals before becoming Splinter and Shredder, which would be further complicated by their shared love of Tang Shen and Saki's discovery of his birth family having died to the Hamato clan. After Tang Shen dies in a final battle between the adopted brothers and Yoshi goes missing, Saki adopted Shen and Yoshi's daughter Miwa and raised her to be the show's version of Karai as revenge for having Tang Shen taken from him. When he finds out that Yoshi is still alive and in New York as Splinter, Saki reignited their rivalry as the Shredder. After Karai finds out the truth and defects to her father's side, Shredder's hatred becomes so intense that he doesn't care if the world ends as long as he is able to kill Splinter. This is literally what happens! After those events are undone by Time Travel, Shredder is once again able to kill Spinter, this time for good, only for Leonardo to return the favor. This is defied and zigzagged between the Turtles and Karai when she's revealed to be the biological daughter of Splinter as she's an antagonistic until she finds out the truth |

The Venture Bros.: Played with where Thaddeus "Rusty" Venture eats his twin brother Jonas Venture, Jr while they were still fetuses. Jonas survives and later escapes, and attacks Thaddeus but gives up because he can't kill his own pathetic brother. Jonas finding his true calling as a heroic man of science quickly becomes a success financially, and with the ladies. It's implied that both would be successful if Thaddeus became a supervillain, and arched his good brother. Another example is Dr. Killinger and the Investors, whom he refers to as his brothers. Given the things they do for people, Killinger is the Anti-Villain Abel to their Cains. After the season 7 finale and The Reveal that Dr. Venture and The Monarch are half-brothers, it's safe to say they also have this dynamic. The Grand Finale reveals that they're actually both clones of the original Rusty, with the Monarch's DNA having been augmented with that of a baboon. He was already deep in denial about them being brothers, but the revelation that he's spent decades basically hating himself sends him into a Villainous BSoD before his wife convinces him to take it in stride and label himself Rusty's "better half". |

The Qur'an: Cain and Abel also appear, but the story is even shorter than in The Bible and doesn't mention the two brothers' names. In this story, The Prophet was told to tell the early Muslims about 'the two sons of Adam'. After his sacrifice was not accepted, Cain told his brother that he would kill him. Abel replied that God would only accept the offerings of people that listened to Him and that a murderer would go to Hell burdened by his own sins and those of their victim (the victim would be forgiven as a result of his unjust death). This version of Abel also refused to "stretch out my hands to kill you, even if you stretch out yours to kill me", and said that he feared God and would rather his brother burn in the fire for murdering him than sin himself. Cain was prompted by his 'wicked soul' to kill his brother, and instantly became a lost person for that act. Since he had no clue what to do with the body, God sent a raven to dig up the ground and show Cain how to bury his brother. Cain was mortified and guilty because the raven (who had buried another raven) knew what to do, but he couldn't even give his brother a proper burial. Cain lived out the rest of his life tormented by regret and guilt. This story was meant to explain why Muslims shouldn't murder anyone. Like the Christian and Jewish versions, the Muslim version of Cain and Abel has many different versions. In many of them, their names are different. They are also unnamed in some versions, have the same names as their Christian and Jewish counterparts in others, and in yet other versions they are given a variety of different names, with the most common ones being Habil and Qabil (or some other close variants). In the most commonly told rendering of the story, the brothers offered sacrifices to God; Abel was righteous and firmly believed in God, so his was accepted, but Cain was arrogant and prideful, so his was rejected. Cain was the wickeder of the two siblings and he subsequently cornered his brother and taunted him over how he would surely slay him. Like the Qur'an version, Abel told his brother that he was the cause of his own rejection and that a God-fearing person would never harm another, much less murder out of envy. Like in the original, Abel refuses to fight back and preaches to his brother about what the reward for murder will be. His brother's innocent pleading had no effect on Cain's evil heart, and he killed him anyway. After the murder, Cain felt guilt and remorse after a crow had to show him how to bury the body. He realized how horrible the murder of a human being really was and also acknowledged that the murder of his brother was even worse because his brother was innocent and righteous. Cain was condemned for his actions and lived out the rest of his life in deep regret for his crime. Another one of the main variants is that Cain murdered Abel over a woman. When the brothers were born, they were each part of a set of twins and had a twin sister. Since intermarriage was unavoidable, but direct relations marrying seemed inappropriate, Adam decided that the brothers would each marry the other's twin. Cain was unhappy because his own twin was prettier and refused to allow Abel to marry her. Adam proposed that they offer a sacrifice to god and let him settle the matter. Abel had a better and more righteous nature than Cain, so his sacrifice was accepted. From there, the story follows the two above. In yet another version of the one involving their twin sisters, Cain blamed Adam for praying to god on Abel's behalf for his success and confronted his brother in the field with the intent to murder him. Abel rebuked him and told his brother that he should be more concerned about making his heart right and renewing his relationship with God than marriage. God had blessed Abel with a pure and compassionate heart, so he told Cain that he would let him kill him if it would make Cain feel better, but also begged his brother to not do it, as Abel feared for Cain's soul should he become a murderer. Cain attempted to kill his brother but found himself unable to do it. At a later time, Adam got worried when Abel was late coming home from his work, so he sent Cain to find him. Cain's anger was rekindled and he proceeded to confront Abel again. Abel repeated his initial warnings but, this time, Cain was intent upon killing his brother and attacked him. In one version of that version, Cain clubs his brother to death with an iron rod. In another version, Abel lays down on the ground and offers his neck to his brother and tells him "Do with me what you will." Cain proceeds to attempt to strangle his brother to death but fails. The Devil appears to Cain and asks him if he really wants to kill his brother. When Cain answers yes, the Devil instructs him to crush his brother's skull with a rock |

Urza and Mishra from Magic: The Gathering. Not for nothing is their conflict called the Brothers' War. In the more recent setting of Theros, Iroas (the red/white centaur-based god of victory) and Mogis (the red/black minotaur-based god of slaughter) are brothers, and are known to have monumental battles. With Chronicle of Bolas: The Twins revealing that Nicol Bolas and Ugin are twins, they fulfill the Cain and Abel roles respectively. |

In the Ravenloft setting, this situation is what doomed Strahd von Zarovich, making him a vampire and the darklord of Barovia. When the beautiful maiden Tatyana rejected him in favor of his younger brother Sergei, Strahd developed jealousy of Sergei that eventually blossomed into hatred. He eventually made a pact with some dark entity (Strahd claims with death itself) and on the day of Sergei and Tatyana's wedding, he murdered his brother, and then tried to pursue Tatyana, only for her to flee from him and throw herself from the walls of Castle Ravenloft. This horrid act cursed Strahd forever, transforming him into a vampire, making Barovia the first recorded domain of Ravenloft with him as its lord, and tormented by images of Tatyana (or women who look just like her) ever since. 5e also makes this the relationship of the three hags of Tepest. Lorinda is the Cain, having betrayed and imprisoned her sisters to use them as a power source. |

In Gattaca, the main character Vincent was conceived without any of the advanced genetic screening that his younger brother Anton receives, and is thus subject to nearsightedness and a high likelihood of developing a heart condition. Their father clearly favors Anton throughout childhood (deciding at the last minute to not name the first-born son after himself when the potential heart condition is discovered at birth, saving that for his perfectly engineered second son). This favoritism coupled with the societal discrimination against naturally conceived "faithbirths" causes Vincent to hide his identity in order to pursue his dream of becoming an astronaut. Later, the police detective who discovers Vincent's deception is revealed to be Anton, who feels insecure about how successful Vincent is despite his "inferior" genetics (due to his determination). | |

As revealed in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All, younger sister Misty Fey was able to get the position as the Master of Kurain Village, due to surpassing her older sister Morgan in spiritual power. This left the latter extremely embittered and led her to conspirate to eliminate the main family's bloodline to instill her daughter Pearl as the new Master. It's also revealed that part of the reason Mia left the village was to avoid fighting her younger sister Maya for the position. | |

Transformers Film Series: At the climax of Transformers (2007), Optimus calls Megatron "brother". Peter Cullen, who voices Optimus, publicly referenced the story of Cain and Abel when describing the revelation. How that works with giant robots was unexplained, at first. It turns out that Optimus Prime and Megatron were both raised by their adopted father Sentinel Prime. More explicitly in Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen, the Fallen is revealed to be one of the Prime family, the original leaders of the Transformers. Optimus is either his brother or his nephew. | |

Sensei Wu and Lord Garmadon in Ninjago are the series' Abel and Cain respectively. The former is the younger brother who grows to become a wise Old Master who acts as the mentor to the ninja. The latter is the older brother who slowly turns evil involuntarily after getting bitten by the Great Devourer, to the extent of becoming an Evil Overlord. Garmadon gets cleansed of evil after being defeated by Lloyd and turns good again. This dynamic is reversed temporarily in Season 3: Wu undergoes Unwilling Roboticisation into an evil cyborg controlled by the Overlord, while Sensei Garmadon serves as the strict Team Dad for the ninja. |

Warhammer 40,000 has the rivalries between the Primarchs, the Emperor's clone-sons and the leaders of his armies, which escalated into the galaxy-shaking bloodshed of the Horus Heresy. These struggles are continued by the Space Marines and Chaos Space Marines, entire armies of superhuman, genetically-engineered brothers trying to murder each other. Fulgrim and Ferrus Manus had a shared obsession with perfection that forged them into good friends, which was why Fulgrim tried to talk Ferrus into going traitor along with him. When Ferrus refused and challenged his brother to battle, he became the first Primarch to die during the Horus Heresy. Konrad Kurze ended up capturing and killing Vulkan, several times, as part of an attempt to break the loyalist Primarch. Leman Russ of the Space Wolves and Magnus the Red of the Thousand Sons were natural rivals since Russ was a barbarian warlord with a superstitious hatred of sorcery and Magnus was the most powerful psyker among the Primarchs, and the most clearly inhuman. So when Magnus broke the Emperor's ban on sorcery, it was all too easy for Horus to trick Russ into trying to kill Magnus, rather than apprehend him as the Emperor had actually ordered. The tragedy is that Magnus had used his powers to try to warn his father about Horus' betrayal, but being attacked by the Wolves drove the Thousand Sons into the traitors' camp. Sanguinius and Horus were once close enough to confide their deepest fears to each other, and each assumed the other was the best choice for Warmaster. During the final battle of the Horus Heresy, Sanguinius still tried to talk his fallen brother down but was forced into battle and slain by Horus. Perturabo of the Iron Warriors and Rogal Dorn of the Imperial Fists were rivals for a long time before the Heresy. Both Primarchs were siege experts and had incredible engineering skills, but Dorn received the privilege of building some of the greatest works of the Imperium, including the Imperial Palace on Terra, while Perturabo and his legion were pigeon-holed into digging trenches and garrisoning planets, with no glory and no thanks. Perturabo wasn't happy about this, especially when Dorn told their brothers that he could tear down any fortification with the proper resources, including anything Perturabo built. This lack of respect, especially from Dorn, was what helped pushed Perturabo into the traitor's camp and made him take great pleasure in destroying the Imperium's works. And during the "Iron Cage" incident, Perturabo did in fact build a massive fortress and dared Dorn to try and break it down. Dorn did...and nearly got himself and all his sons killed in the long siege and traps Perturabo set. After the Heresy, Roboute Guilliman was mortally wounded by the now-daemon prince Fulgrim, but was placed in stasis for nine thousand years before being healed and returning to battle. Then when he headed for Terra, Magnus the Red nearly killed Guilliman on Luna. The daemon sword Drach'nyen was supposedly born from the first willful murder of a human being by another, strongly implying it was the original Cain and Abel (the name supposedly comes from the firsts victim screaming in pain, then the name of his murderer). The Emperor supposedly first awoke to his colossal psychic powers sometime around 8,000 B.C. when he had a vision of his uncle murdering his father as he was preparing his father's funeral pyre. He then found his uncle and stopped his heart with a single gesture. |

In Drowtales, this tends to happen due to Royally Screwed Up families: Vy'chriel and Yaeminira. Yae was an adopted "protector twin", and The Un-Favourite. She killed Vy'chriel for the crime of refusing to tow the family line and took her name. The fandom now fears for Chrys and her "protector twin", Shinae. Chrys' mother actually warns them against betraying each other with a story about the first "protector twin", and what happened when the true daughter betrayed her. To a much lesser extent, Ariel and her older "sister" Syphile. Syphile was forced to become Ariel's Governess, despite having never been trained in childcare. After years with a Babysitter from Hell, when asked what she would most like to do, the ten-year-old Ariel unsurprisingly replies "kill Syphile". Another example with Ariel is with her half-sister Kalki, who goes so far as to stab Ariel in the hand and then chop off her arm they very first time they meet. |

In an interesting if debated adaptation choice, The Prince of Egypt made Moses the adopted brother of Rameses instead of his nephew, then played this trope to the hilt. The Biblical version had Moses found by Pharaoh's daughter, while The Prince of Egypt had his foster mother as Pharaoh's wife. Given marriage customs among Egyptian royalty of the time period, the same woman could easily be the daughter of Pharaoh X and the wife of his successor, Pharaoh Y. Thus, identifying her by her relationship to a Pharaoh depends on which Pharaoh is the point of reference. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Princess Luna and Celestia form a rather complicated example. Luna got corrupted by an outside influence and when that was gone, Celestia immediately offered to return her to power. Also, in the episode "One Bad Apple", Babs Seed, who is the cousin of Apple Bloom, bullies the Cutie Mark Crusaders after she joins Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. However, when it turns out that she only did that out of fear of being bullied herself, she and the CMC make amends. The season 4 finale backstory has Tirek and Scorpan (originally from the G1 pilot episode My Little Pony: Rescue at Midnight Castle) reimagined as two brothers. They aim to steal all the magic in Equestria until Scorpan makes friends with the ponies and turns against Tirek. |

Elena of Avalor Season 3: We have cousins Elena as Abel and Esteban as Cain, since they consider each other their siblings in all but name. It's a little complicated, though; Esteban doesn't want to go against Elena, but he feels he has no choice because he fears her wrath and he eventually accepts that he has to get rid of Elena in order to feel safe. Elena doesn't want to fight him either, but unlike him, she knows where she stands and that Esteban did this to himself (since he never concretely takes responsibility for his actions), so she understands that she may need to kill him if things get too far (that, and some anger mixed in early on). | |

Cain and Abel from Serpamia Flare. A bit of a literal demonstration of this trope in the names; Cain has great trouble talking about his brother in Chapter Two and refers to him in the past tense, while Abel expresses extreme distaste/anger at the mere suggestion that Cain may be involved with a situation at hand at the end of Chapter Two. They seem to have some past issues, though a hint in Chapter Three suggests the two brothers weren't always on bad terms. | |

Survival of the Fittest: Anthony and Lyn Laeil Burbank (although the gender tradition is bucked here). Another example would be Josee Trembley and Remy Kim of v4, who suffer from a Sibling Rivalry as a result of both siblings trying to win their mother's love as a result of both seeing themselves as The Un-Favourite. Currently somewhat played with, as Josee actually wants either one of them to live to return home, and it looks like a team-up is in the works. |

In Desperado, when the Mariachi and Bucho finally face off, it turns out that they are both brothers. The Mariachi is Cesar's Manito (little brother in Spanish), while his brother is Cesar. In fact, Desperado has a story very similar to Il Trouvatore, where the same thing happens. | |

Jeremy and Bran from Shadow of the Templar. While Jeremy still cares for Bran and wants him to reconcile with their father, Bran despises Jeremy for being a better thief than him and having stolen his father's attention from him despite being "only" a foster son. Whenever the two meet, it's always highly uncertain whether Bran will listen to Jeremy or kill him out of spite. It's even all but said that they had sexual relations in the past, which really makes their current relationship a complicated one. | |

Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: The egg brothers. Jollie is the Cain in a loose sense, as while his "all-knowing prophet" qualities are more than questionable, he's ultimately helping the goats (or at least trying to). Darton, having taken over the Sixth Space and mind-controlling the bees to go against the goats when Great War in the Bizarre World starts, is the Abel. | |

See Michael Myers and his sister(s) from the Halloween movies for the slasher flick take on this: In the original film, Michael murdered his older sister Judith as a child Depending on the timeline, Michael has this relationship with Final Girl Laurie. The second film reveals that Laurie is actually Michael's younger sister. However, the 2018 film averts this as it ignores every movie except the original and retcons Michael and Laurie as being unrelated. |

Sarah one time asked Rolf, "What am I? His keeper?" when Rolf asked her for Ed so that Ed can help him mash raspberries. In The Movie, it's revealed in that Eddy had a big brother who always beat him up. | |

The Book of Mormon: The rift between Lehi's oldest and (at the beginning of the record) youngest sons, Laman and Nephi, is so deep that it forms the basis of the political division between their descendants, with a thousand years of on-and-off war between the "Nephites" and "Lamanites". During the family's journey across Arabia to The Promised Land, Laman repeatedly gets fed up with Nephi exhorting him to be obedient to God and keep going, with responses ranging from beating Nephi with a stick, to tying him up to die in the desert, to an attempt to throw him off a cliff into the ocean. Nephi survives each attempt through divine intervention, but once they reach their destination, he takes those who will follow him and parts ways before Laman can finish the job — and Laman resents that too, teaching his children that Nephi robbed him of the opportunity to govern the people. There are wars and skirmishes for centuries afterward until there's any sign of peace — and even then, it never lasts more than a few generations at most before old grudges are stirred up again. | |

Chaotic has twin sisters Aivenna and Nivenna. They were both raised separately, under different factions that are mortal enemies of each other. Aivenna is obstensibly the "good" sister, being raised in the Overworld, fighting her "evil" Underworlder sister Nivennanote The factions have a Grey-and-Gray Morality thing going on, with the Underworld being the darker shade. Ironically, both of their cards gain bonuses from being on the same team. | |

Queens of Mewni has quite a few examples, which isn't surprising since Game of Thrones was also a major influence of the series. Oddly enough, all the examples feature the younger siblings being the Cain: Nixie resented her older sister Hemera for 'stealing' Nixie's crush Roman (what happened was Nixie was too shy to approach him herself, so pushed Hemera toward him, only for the two of them to fall in love instead) and throughout Hemera's reign, caused trouble throughout, poisoned Hemera into miscarrying three children, raised high hell when she found out her son Pyxar was in love with Hemera's daughter Cosmica, and finally poisoned Hemera, Roman, her own husband (for accepting Cosmica and Pyxar's relationship) and herself to death the night Cosmica and Pyxar got married. Nixie is forever remembered in history as The Queen Poisoner. Umbra and Penumbra resented Celena for being the heir to the throne and the most beautiful of the siblings, and manipulated their brothers into tampering with Celena's potions, causing an explosion and putting Celena close to death. Antumbra, while not above bullying her older sister, found that Even Evil Has Standards and turned her triplet sisters in. Umbra was sent to another kingdom under the guise of being an ambassador and Penumbra was eventually disowned entirely. Ironically, Umbra's son would marry Celena's daughter. Sky and Etheria had a sibling rivalry due to being too close in age to each other (Etheria was born the same year Sky was), and Etheria resented the attention Sky got both as heiress to the throne and because of her diminutive stature. Getting passed over for an Arranged Marriage because the mother of the groom would accept no less than the heiress for her son didn't help. Eventually the tension escalated enough that a drunk Etheria tried to stab Sky. She was sent to St. Olga's Reformatory School for Wayward Princesses in response (a response that even her harshest critics thought was too much). It's both this, and Etheria seizing the regency while Sky was on her honeymoon, that caused Sky to name their younger sister Comet regent and adoptive mother of Moon on her deathbed. That said, Etheria still cared enough about her sister to try to get her to (and sometimes force her to) eat when she was on the verge of Death by Despair, despite the fact that if Sky and the baby she carried died, Etheria would be queen. |

Masters of the Universe: Big Bad Skeletor was supposed to secretly have once been Keldor, the brother of King Randor (and thus Prince Adam/He-Man's uncle). This was never officially revealed in any canon but has been confirmed as the intended outcome of the original minicomics that had already begun to anviliciouslly hint at it when the toyline was axed. Skeletor's past as Keldor was depicted in He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (2002) and the backstory of he and Randor being half-brothers was discussed by the writers on a DVD commentary as being an additional reason for their more specific & personal animosity in that version. | |

Ace Attorney: An adopted example: Franziska von Karma from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney has some severe issues with her adopted "little brother" Miles Edgeworth. She's determined to outdo him in nearly everything, especially prosecuting, and is unhappy that she won't get to prosecute before he does (even though she's seven years younger than he is). Edgeworth doesn't seem to care very much, which only infuriates Franziska more. As revealed in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All, younger sister Misty Fey was able to get the position as the Master of Kurain Village, due to surpassing her older sister Morgan in spiritual power. This left the latter extremely embittered and led her to conspirate to eliminate the main family's bloodline to instill her daughter Pearl as the new Master. It's also revealed that part of the reason Mia left the village was to avoid fighting her younger sister Maya for the position. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Trials and Tribulations reveals that Morgan had two daughters before Pearl, the twins Dahlia Hawthorne and Iris. The former is a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing who committed one crime after another trying to cover her tracks (ending when she attempted it on Phoenix), while the latter is a sweet and gentle soul who, despite being accomplice to her sister multiple times, genuinely loved her and just wanted her to stop piling up more sins. It seems to run in the family. In Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, Kristoph and Klavier Gavin are respectively Cain and Abel, with Kristoph being an Amoral Attorney who is responsible for Phoenix getting disbarred, and Klavier being a more moral prosecutor. In Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice, Ga'ran is the Cain to Amara's Abel. She framed her brother-in-law for a faked assassination to usurp control of the country from her sister, and outright had her sister shot when she was about to expose her crimes. |

There are two Yu-Gi-Oh! cards based off of these two, Numbers 13 and 31. Also, Master Guide 2 confirms that White Magician Pikeru and Ebon Magician Curran are sisters, making the situation on the Trap Card A Rival Appears suggest this Trope. | |

With the release of Prometheus, the relationship between the Humans and the Xenomorphs became something of this trope, as it was revealed that both species were created by ancient, humanoid creatures nicknamed Engineers, or Space Jockeys, in their bioengineering experiments. However, this trope is reinforced as the Engineers created the Xenomorphs in order to wipe out their former creation, the Humans, for reason unknown, and when it looks like the last Engineer died by the end of Prometheus, the deadly hatred the Humans and the Xenomorphs have to each other still remain active even centuries afterward. | |

Luigi and Pavi Largo in Repo! The Genetic Opera. In this case, the hatred is definitely mutual. The existence of sister Amber is a slight complication, though… they don't dare actually try to kill each other for fear fabulously wealthy daddy Rotti will disinherit both of them. | |

In It's Walky!, Walky and his separated-at-birth sister Sal have fought each other at least twice, and they get pretty rough. Also, Beef, who was believed to be Walky's twin brother, betrays SEMME in part because of being upstaged by his puny airhead adoptive brother. | |

Transformers has Planet-sized, Transforming Mecha (that turn into planets) Physical Gods Primus and Unicron. Unicron is the Big Bad God of Evil Omnicidal Maniac seeking to destroy everything that isn't him. Primus is the Big Good who is completely loaded with BFGs and Wave Motion Guns seeking to thwart his brother. However, his trump card isn't any of that weaponry — it's the Transformers themselves. Unfortunately, they'd rather spend their time fighting each other. | |
