This character is someone whom the audience would consider a villain in any other story. They Kick the Dog, they Rape, Pillage, and Burn, they cross the Moral Event Horizon time and time again...because someone or something else is making them do it. This type of character is similar to, but separate from a Necessarily Evil villain. A Necessarily Evil villain typically performs their heinous acts of their own free will, because they think an ideal solution isn't possible or because it's the path that guarantees the most success. Ultimately, they may be right or wrong, but the responsibility rests completely with themselves. They believe their actions will lead to a greater good, and they are carrying out their own will. No one made them do anything. Not so for this character. These characters are villains because they truly don't have another option (that they know of anyway). Either they, someone they know, or even the world itself is in grave danger if they don't do what they've been told, and there isn't enough time or opportunity to find another way. They know that their actions are evil and will mean inevitable victory for the evil side, but their actions, no matter how horrible, mean the difference between evil winning now or evil winning later. Another example is that they may have Power Born of Madness or a Superpowered Evil Side, but have no choice but to use it to solve a ''bigger'' problem. Either way, all this person generally needs is to be freed from any external coercion or taught a better solution to their problem. Given enough time, they may fall prey to Evil Feels Good, Evil Tastes Good or Evil Is Easy and make a full Face–Heel Turn. Character types that usually fall victim to this are the Sympathetic Sentient Weapon, Tyke-Bomb, Friendly Enemy, Tragic Monster, Slave Mook and Anti-Villain (almost always the "Villain in Name Only" type). The Complete Monster will instead never be this trope, as they are not evil by force but rather by will. Situations like Explosive Leash, I Have Your Wife, Please Spare Him, My Liege!, The Commies Made Me Do It or An Offer You Can't Refuse usually turns into this (when The Hero is the pleading party). Also expect one-sided Teeth-Clenched Teamwork on the side of the forced, if they're told to fight alongside the evil. When the audience knows the characters are forcibly doing this but the protagonists don't, see Dramatic Irony. May lead to a Faustian Rebellion. A character who is trying to fight back may be a Stealth Mentor for the good guys and/or a Sixth Ranger Traitor for the villains. This is a very good way to justify having a Token Good Teammate in the villains group. Compare Hired by the Oppressor, where the villains actually hire the services of The Hero instead of forcing them to go into evil. Contrast with the Brainwashed and Face–Monster Turn tropes, where the character is forcefully modified and robbed of free will to be steered into evil, or Mind Rape where they were wrecked so hard their free will wasn't working straight to steer them into evil. In that case they didn't really make a choice and weren't really even themselves. Not so for this character, this character knows what he/she is doing and had their free will intact and straight, but still couldn't do a thing to resist the forcing... for the moment. They have a choice, it is just a very, very harsh one and possibly a choice to die. Also compare with More than Mind Control where the character is coerced mentally into believing that the only way available is something that he/she doesn't like, thus being forced to make a free will choice of steering themselves into evil. Then Let Me Be Evil is another similar trope, in which a character isn't directly forced into being evil, but is expected to by society. Minion Manipulated into Villainy is a more subtle way of converting a person into a villain. Trapped in Villainy is a subtrope where forced is akin to having them and/or their loved ones threatened with death or worse, which can turn this character into a Regretful Traitor. Since this trope covers villains who are forced to do evil, we strongly advise you to not add any real life examples to this list. |

Dracula, previously known as Gabriel Belmont, in the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow series, believes himself to be this. Embittered towards those he feels drove him into evil, he decides to embrace it, at least at first. | |

Several examples pop up in Worm, including every single member of the Undersiders: Regent was pressured to commit an escalating series of evil acts by his father, Heartbreaker. It's a Discussed Trope as the issue of how morally culpable he is for his previous actions is brought up a couple of times. The issue is further complicated by the fact that Regent's superpower seems to mess with his ability to feel empathy, he was raised in an environment devoid of love or any sort of moral foundation, and his power makes him so scary to the public at large that super-villainy is one of the very few career options available for him. Rachel accidentally killed her foster family by empowering a puppy her abusive foster mother was trying to drown, and was immediately assumed to be a villain by the authorities after she ran away rather than surrender to their custody. Grue needs a large amount of money and a legitimate-seeming paper trail to get his little sister away from her drug-addled mother and neglectful father. When she got superpowers of her own, letting her join the team was the only way he could keep an eye on her. Tattletale was living off the grid to avoid her very wealthy and emotionally abusive parents, picking pockets to survive, when a group of mercenaries hired by Coil made her An Offer You Can't Refuse. Skitter originally wanted to be a hero, joining the Undersiders as The Mole, but couldn't bring herself to betray the only friends she'd had in years. Parian's family was disfigured by Bonesaw, and there was no legal way to get the money she needed to fix them. Bonesaw herself was essentially kidnapped after being forced to tricked into extending her family's suffering and became a serial killer from a combination of Stockholm Syndrome and deliberate brainwashing by Jack Slash. A combination of being separated from Jack's influence and reminded of how her family died ultimately leads to her Heel–Face Turn. |

Samurai Jack: This happens to any warrior defeated by the eponymous villain in the episode "Jack versus Demongo the Soul Collector", although Jack manages to release them all. (And likely give Aku a lot more headaches in the future, seeing as they were all his enemies.) A most tragic version is X-9, a robot assassin who was given emotions, abandoned his life as an assassin and adopted a dog named Lulu. Aku kidnaps Lulu and forced X-9 to kill Jack. Unaware of the whole story, Jack destroys X-9, leaving Lulu abandoned. |

Psych: Lou experienced this three times in the Back Story of "Santabarbaratown," with each example being worse than the last. First, he became a reluctant lookout for a drug operation to pay his wife's medical bills. Then, when his boss committed a murder, Lou refused to dispose of the body until his boss threatened to expose Lou's corruption and take Lou to jail with him. Finally, Lou experienced severe guilt afterward and thought about coming clean before the other criminals threatened his wife. | |

In Diablero, it's clear from the beginning that Wences is a fundamentally nice person who has objections to Mama Chabela kidnapping and imprisoning the kids, but that he has some kind of vaguely defined mental disorder that makes it almost impossible for him to disagree with her. It also can't be helping that she uses him as a demon host, which Nancy recognizes as not his fault and pities him for. | |

It's indicated he only serves her out of fear, and they might too. Brighton also lets Snow White live rather than murder her on the Queen's orders, saying he much preferred her father. | |

Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter series. He willingly enters the ranks of Voldemort's Death Eaters at the age of 16, after years of bragging about his pure-blood status and acting like an utter racist jerk against muggle-born and blood-traitor witches and wizards. He entered partly as a way of revenge against Harry and the non-pure-blooded wizard world in general for seeing his father imprisoned for his criminal activities, but quickly gets disillusioned when he sees the atrocities performed by Voldemort and his followers. He can't change his mind, however; besides the fact resigning from being a Death Eater equals death, Voldemort sets an impossible mission on his shoulders, including smuggling Death Eaters to Hogwarts and killing Dumbledore, as a way to make his family pay for his father's failures in case he fails himself. This makes him much less self-confident and arrogant, becoming extremely anxious and terrified of the consequences if he does not succeed, leaving him no choice. Although he succeeded with the former, he showed hesitation and finally lowered his wand when he was about to perform the latter. | |

In Attack on Titan, Reiner, Bertolt, and Annie are not carrying out their horrific mission because they want to do it. Their families volunteered them for it as small children, having been promised better treatment in exchange for their children's loyal service. Even when they later begin to doubt their mission, they know the cost of betrayal is their own deaths and A Fate Worse Than Death for their loved ones. They genuinely believe they have no other choice, and that it's far too late for them to consider other options. Applies to the other Titan shifters under the Kingdom of Marley's military control too, most notably in the case of Zeke Yeager, Grisha's son. Reiner is trying to stop this from being the ultimate fate of his cousin Gabi, who is part of the next generation of Child Soldiers who will potentially inherit some of the powers of the Nine Titans once the current shifters reach the end of their 13-year time limit. |

Xu Shu from Romance of the Three Kingdoms is one of Liu Bei's earlier strategist and cornerstone of his survival against Cao Cao's constant attacks. Realizing this, Cao Cao arranges it that Xu Shu's mom gets under his captivity. Being a Momma's Boy, Xu Shu had no choice but to change sides into his enemy. However, as a Wei officer, he ends up being inefficient and faded from the stages of history, and before leaving, he did recommend to Liu Bei someone who's eventually proven to be far better than him as replacement: Zhuge Liang. | |

There were several victims of this in the Power Rangers franchise. Tommy is likely the most famous one, unwillingly brainwashed into becoming the Green Ranger by Rita; two seasons later, Rita repeated the same trick on Kat. Karone Power Rangers in Space and Ryan from Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue, were both kidnapped as young children and raised to be villains. In all these cases, it ultimately led to a Faustian Rebellion. | |

Homestuck: A female troll (possessing clockwork majyyks and other powers) was nearly single-handedly responsible for making planet Alternia an antagonistic, caste-warfare-torn hellhole. She rained so much destruction on Alternia that history remembered her only as a demoness, and mythology remembered her as Death's right-hand servant. And she did all of this because she was forced into it by a time-traveling, universe-eating demon. | |

In Jill's campaign in the first Resident Evil, Barry betrays the rest of the S.T.A.R.S. team to work with Wesker, spending his time in the mansion erasing evidence of Wesker's involvement with Umbrella and making multiple half-hearted attempts to kill Jill. But he's only doing it because Wesker is threatening his family. Barry ultimately decides enough is enough and turns on Wesker just before he unleashes the Tyrant. | |

The Mamas, Grandmas, and Sisters in The Promised Neverland. They are women who showed exceptional abilities and high scores in their farms as children, and were offered two choices: to die and be eaten by the demons, or to live on and train to raise more children as food. These women chose the latter, and became the farmers instead of the cattle. In the final arc, all of the Mamas and Sisters, led by Grandma Isabella, rebel against their demonic masters and help the children of Grace Field escape to the human world. Isabella ends up sacrificing her life to save Emma, revealing in her dying breath that she did indeed love the children she took care of in her own way. | |

Yurin L'Ciel in Mobile Suit Gundam AGE allowed herself to get captured and get on a mobile suit used by Desil to empower his mecha through telekinesis... on the basis that if she doesn't comply, she'll never see Flit again. What results is her tragic death, by taking a blow meant for Flit, as well as the cementing of how utterly horrifying and despicable Desil is, as he passes it off like he just lost a toy. | |

In BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, the ever-kind and compassionate Hospital Hottie Litchi Faye-Ling ended up in NOL thanks to the consummate troll Hazama/Yuuki Terumi, despite being able to keep her sound mind and resisting Hazama himself TWICE on him preying on her obsession with Arakune (her Fatal Flaw) by offering to cure Arakune. This was largely because of the corruption that she took to save Arakune alone was quickly catching up to her and she only had little time left until she loses her sanity or memory due to the corruption. So even if the decision was extremely questionable (and unfortunately pegs her as idiot because players are savvy enough that Hazama is not going to fulfill his bargain, and Litchi isn't\), she really had no choice but to join NOL except if she wants to just rot down, become a monster and eats the other people she loves. | |

Subverted with Szeth-son-son-Vallano in The Stormlight Archive. As a Truthless of Shinovar, Szeth must obey any order given by the holder of his Oathstone, except orders to kill himself or surrender his Shardblade, while remaining morally responsible for all of his actions. However, there is absolutely no power except his honour preventing him from just saying no. | |

In Dungeons & Dragons, devils have been known to alter a society's culture so that coming-of-age rituals involve acts that will send you to hell (or increase your chance of ending up there). There's a spell in The Book of Vile Darkness called Morality Undone which can turn a victim evil against his or her will. (It does not make the victim loyal to the caster in any way or force him to commit evil deeds, but once the spell is cast, the caster may find convincing him to do that easier.) Fortunately, it's temporary, lasting ten minutes per caster level. (Still, being a 5th level spell, a caster needs to be around 10th level to use it, so that's often long enough to get the victim in some rather dangerous situations.) |

In Mortal Kombat 9 this happens to all but three of the entire cast of Earthrelm's protectors when they are killed by Sindel, along with Sindel herself and the Outworld warriors who allied themselves with the Earthrealm after their souls are stolen by Quan Chi. By the time of Mortal Kombat X, a few are freed from Quan Chi's hold, while the rest are forever trapped as revenants following Quan Chi's demise leaving Liu Kang, Kitana, and Sindel as potential enemies in the future. | |

Any given Sabbat recruit in Vampire: The Masquerade will go through a period of this, assuming the creation rites don't drive them mad from the outset. They're made loyal to their pack through blood bonds, and are kept isolated from humanity and non-Sabbat vampires, so they have no choice but to go along with the pack. This eventually fades as atrocities blend together, and they grow to like evil. | |

The fourth case in Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc starts with a message from Monokuma that amongst the students, there's a mole working for him. And that mole is... the resident Gentle Giant Lady Looks Like a Dude Sakura Oogami. She has shown disgust towards Monokuma, claiming that she won't stand for any other murders of her friends, but gets promptly reminded by Monokuma that he has her whole dojo hostage and in case a murder doesn't happen, she is to kill someone, causing people to distrust her. She solves this by choosing to murder herself and this manages to at least stop the remaining students from trying to kill each other. | |

Dr. Noore Najjar in Far Cry 4 was once a human rights activist working for the UN... until she insulted Pagan Min by trying to expose the human rights violations he was carrying out in Kyrat. He subsequently had her family kidnapped and placed her in charge of the Shannath Arena and Kyrat's prostitution and drug manufacturing industries, telling her he would have her family tortured and killed if she refused to cooperate. It's later revealed that her family were all killed long ago. Upon learning this, she realizes that she's been committing atrocities for nothing and proceeds to throw herself to her beasts. | |

She's back in Second Super Robot Wars: Original Generation, and her backstory is still similar. Her kingdom was destroyed by the Garden of Baral, she was nearly consumed by TouTetsuOh... then Son Ganlong said that if she served the Baral Garden, he promised that he would reunite her parents with her. Near the end, Ganlong gleefully reveals that her parents can't even come back because their souls have been devoured into nothingness by TouTetsuOh, meaning Kukuru has been completely duped. After Sanger saved her, Kukuru finally is able to pull a Heel–Face Turn... then dies after the final battle, because the Baral Garden is destroyed and her life was linked with them. At the very least, she died a heroine now. | |

Star Wars: The Old Republic features this with a Light Side Sith Inquisitor. The character starts off as a Force-Sensitive slave and is forced to join the Sith because of their policy (i.e. join us or die). After completing training, they take regular jobs from the Empire, including stamping down slave rebellions, preventing the Republic from re-cultivating a devastated planet, crushing resistance groups, attacking Jedi enclaves, and testing superweapons on entire fleets. However, an LS inquisitor can state they have no particular love for the Empire, that they have options to minimize casualties sometimes implies they don't enjoy what they do, and they can also state they would prefer to change the faction from within to make it a more rational and peaceful organization. With later expansions, they can actively sabotage the Empire by ruining critical operations in their war effort. | |

Doum'wielle Armgo from Companions Codex of The Legend of Drizzt, wins a contest for the sentinent magical sword Kazid'hea against her brother, and it's all downhill from there. First, the sword makes her kill her brother in a fit of bloodthirst which leads her to flee her elven village. Then her father Tos'Un, former owner of the sword, joins her thinking his time among the surface elves is at an end and intends to return to Menzoberranzan with her in tow, not realizing that as a half-drow Doum'wielle will be treated like dirt. Sure enough, once they meet some other dark elves, Doum'wielle and her father are immediately roped into their machinations as pawns. From there it's a dark journey of killing, rape and emotional instability for her. | |

Tyranny deconstructs this trope (as well as many other tropes about evil in fiction), to the extent that it's ambiguous just who in Kyros the Overlord's empire isn't, to one extent or another, a victim of this trope (except for Kyros him/herself). It's certainly a valid interpretation of the Player Character's motivation for being Judge, Jury, and Executioner in Kyros' judicial system, given some of the roleplaying options you're given. | |

Sombron saw Veyle as an unworthy successor to his throne, so he had Zephia create a Split Personality for her, and this new personality would carry on Sombron's will.

Subverted in Kill Six Billion Demons. Mottom presents herself as a victim of this trope, forced to continuously pstrip worlds under her dominion to the bone and sacrifice blood tithes of her citizens to her husband's corpse to maintain her immortality because of the Evil Power Vacuum that would arise should her power or control slip but a little, leading to either Jagganoth or her Decadent Court killing her. Once Allison realizes the full extent of Mottom's actions (and that she's trying to pawn off all her responsibilities onto Allison) she rejects all of it, stating that Mottom is nothing but a frightened old woman deluding herself into thinking she has no choice when she is a demi-god and has almost every kind of choice available to a human being in The Multiverse. She simply chooses not to try to be better. | |

In Shrek 2, part of King Harold's motivation for acting against Shrek is his fear of retaliation from the Fairy Godmother — long before the events of the first film, he's made a deal with her to turn him from a frog to a human so he could be with Lillian, on the condition that their daughter would marry the Fairy Godmother's son, Prince Charming. Unfortunately for him, Shrek had already rescued and subsequently married Fiona before Charming could get there. When the Fairy Godmother finds out, she presses Harold into helping force Fiona to be with Charming, and when he shows doubts, the Fairy Godmother threatens to turn him back into a frog, which she does at the end of the film after Harold takes a spell meant for Shrek. | |

The Urpneys only really seemed bothered about going after The Dreamstone because Zordrak will either turn them into stone or feed them to the Frazznats otherwise, making them essentially all conscripts. Co-Dragons Sgt Blob and Urpgor partly go after it for rivalistic sake though. Subverted in a later episode, which makes clear that despite their unwillingness, the Urpneys would rather stay with Zordrak than get thrown out of Viltheed to fend for themselves. |

Kukuru in Super Robot Wars Alpha 2. Her first on-screen debut, exclusively in Sanger Zonvolt's route, is... to blow the Earth Cradle to smithereens and even seemingly killed Sophia Nate, sending Sanger into a frenzy. Throughout the game, however, you find out that aside of becoming Sanger's rival, Kukuru used to be a princess of a kingdom and forced into servitude of the Jamatai against her honor and wishes when her kingdom's destroyed. Even if she refused to be pitied, Sanger does not face her with hatred. She's killed before she could turn around for good, but also revealed that she didn't kill Sophia, she just got her captured. She's back in Second Super Robot Wars: Original Generation, and her backstory is still similar. Her kingdom was destroyed by the Garden of Baral, she was nearly consumed by TouTetsuOh... then Son Ganlong said that if she served the Baral Garden, he promised that he would reunite her parents with her.

This is the driving trope of the Weird Route in Chapter 2 of Deltarune. In it, the player forces Kris to gaslight Noelle into becoming a bloodthirsty murderer, messing with her psyche until she becomes single-mindedly focused on getting stronger. Through these actions, she gets manipulated into eliminating every enemy in Cyber City, murdering an Addison and her friend Berdly, and eventually going on a rampage in Queen's mansion that allows Spamton to take over. In essence, it's forcing someone into evil as a means of forcing someone else into evil. | |

Accidental Detectives: Norbert and Jimmy from The Volcano of Doom simply did a minor job (which they suspected, but didn't know for sure was related to smuggling) for the money to pay some heavy debts but when the delivery failed, are threatened with death unless they retrieve it, leading to their run-ins with the gang. Two minor henchmen who appear in one chapter of Madness at Moonshiners Bay are later mentioned as being ex-convicts who were blackmailed into doing so with the threat of being framed for parole violations. In The Legend of the Gilded Saber an accomplice to the museum robber was deliberately and systematically bankrupted by the criminal (who tricked him into putting his money in all of the wrong stocks) to make him desperate enough to agree to let the guy spend a night conducting research in the museum without authorization in exchange for a little money. He had no advance knowledge of the theft, and only helps the villain cover it up (with no small amount of bitterness) because he'll be fired from the museum and/or arrested if the truth about how he unintentionally abetted the theft in the first place comes out. |

In One Piece, Sanji's brothers are vindictive, unapologetic monsters who take pride and pleasure in abusing anyone they can...because that's what they were designed to be. Sanji's father Judge was a brilliant geneticist who wanted Tyke Bomb children, so he first modified his first daughter Reiju to have super-strength and always obey his orders. But that wasn't enough. When his wife Sora was pregnant with quadruplet sons, he decided to modify the boys pre-birth the same way...without the ability to feel empathy. In a bid to thwart Judge's mad schemes, Sora took a drug to combat the modifications, but it only saved Sanji. Ichiji, Niiji, and Yonji became ruthless jerks, completely unaware of what their father took from them. Reiju, meanwhile, knows just how far around the pale her family has gone, but is unable to fight against them directly, only capable of using Loophole Abuse. | |

In Tekken 6, after losing in the 5th tournament and seeing his master dwindle into an even worse state, Eddy Gordo becomes desperate in giving him medical treatment. Cue Jin Kazama, after he himself pulled a Face–Heel Turn into the head of Mishima Zaibatsu, offers him a medication so long as he joins the Zaibatsu. Without much choice, Eddy joins and turns from a model citizen in a soldier involved in many of the Zaibatsu's dirty works. Jin lied about the medication. | |

This applies to some of the characters in Warriors Orochi serving under the titular antagonist for various reasons, whether it be to save their people (Tokugawa Ieyasu) or their leaders (some Shu and Wu generals), etc. Those who don't count because they joined of their own volition are Maeda Keiji (Sympathy for the Devil), Sima Yi (opportunism), Date Masamune (loss of faith in humanity), Fuuma Kotarou (Ax-Crazy), Lu Bu, Achilles (Blood Knights), and Dong Zhuo (Card-Carrying Villain; inverted in 3 where Zhuge Liang forces him to join the anti-Orochi Resistance). | |

The page quote is from the song "Where There's a Whip, There's a Way" from the Rankin-Bass The Return of the King adaptation, which suggests that a good part of Sauron's army are conscripts who are only marching against the west because bigger Orks with whips are ordering them to. | |

In Soulcalibur V, her daughter Pyrrha follows in her footsteps. Practically raised by Tira from the young age she was kidnapped at, once she grew old enough to have suitors, Tira killed every single one of them, giving Pyrrha a reputation as "The Bringer of Woe" and people everywhere incentive to kill her. Tira, being Tira, advises her to kill them all. After all, it's self defense, so it's okay. Of course, Tira's true goal is turning Pyrrha into the next host for Soul Edge. She succeeds. | |

The Grey Zone: The Sonderkommandos are Jewish prisoners in the death camps who assisted the extermination process by marching the new victims into the gas chambers and then disposing of the corpses. The only reason they're doing this is because the Nazis literally forced them to at gunpoint, and eliminate the Sonderkommandos themselves at regular intervals. After what the characters have done and seen, most of them simply don't want to live anymore. | |

They were a weak race that was conquered by Mensouma and forced to fight for Dark Force's cause. They seek to escape from Dark Force's army. Unfortunately they're hostiles on the battlefield all the same, giving contact damage to the player and just as susceptible to being blasted away even at low power. | |

He only became the Final Boss working with crimelord Mr. Big because they already took his daughter, Ryo's sister, Yuri, as a hostage and blackmailed Takuma to work for them unless he wants Yuri to bite it. By the second game, Takuma returned into being a good Cool Old Guy, and Yuri Took a Level in Badass. | |

Soul Series: Sophitia Alexandria falls into this category during Soulcalibur IV. Her daughter has been captured and bound to the evil Soul Edge, meaning that if the sword is destroyed, so is her daughter's soul. Sophitia is forced to fight on the side of the villains and spill blood to save her daughter's life. The worst part of it is that her proximity to Soul Edge, her despair, her dread of doing something which can never be redeemed, and the overall exhilaration she tries to deny are all pushing her toward a permanent Face–Heel Turn. To rub salt in the wound, she's killed before she gets a chance to redeem herself. In Soulcalibur V, her daughter Pyrrha follows in her footsteps. Practically raised by Tira from the young age she was kidnapped at, once she grew old enough to have suitors, Tira killed every single one of them, giving Pyrrha a reputation as "The Bringer of Woe" and people everywhere incentive to kill her.

In Wolverine and the X-Men (Marvel Comics), the Hellfire Academy student Tin Man has no interest in being a supervillain, but is taken against his will and forced to take classes along with the other students, and later made to battle the X-Men when they attack the Academy. He's unable to resist, or make any attempt to escape, mostly because he's too meek and spineless. | |

In Battlestar Galactica (2003), Gaius Baltar's bad actions are usually more misguided than actively malicious, but one example from the New Caprica arc definitively fits this trope. Baltar, as the nominal president of the 'Twelve Colonies', is required as a legal rubber stamp by the Cylons to give their occupation of the human settlement some air of legitimacy. They order Baltar to sign a mass execution order for Resistance members, but when he refuses, they shove a gun in his face while yelling at him to sign. He eventually relents after some guidance from Head Six. | |

In Tales of Destiny, Leon Magnus' chief reason of betraying Stahn's party is that his foster mother figure Marian was taken hostage by Hugo Gilchrist. Depending on the version, he either subverts it or plays it straight: In the original, he's already been an incurable nihilist Jerkass, so he's not so much Forced into Evil, he's just playing along to vent his annoyance to Stahn's party. Then he got dropped with a bridge. In the remake, he genuinely did consider Stahn and co. his True Companions, but then was powerless to ask them for help, therefore playing it straight. Then comes the Heroic Sacrifice. | |

X/1999: Either Kamui or Fuuma are fated to become evil depending on Kamui's choice of becoming either a Dragon of Heaven or a Dragon of Earth. The one who becomes the Dragon of Earth will automatically change their entire personality into something twisted and evil and will kill their beloved Kotori (Kamui's love interest and Fuuma's little sister). In all media, it is Fuuma who becomes a Dragon of Earth, but he has no choice or agency in the matter because the choice is made by Kamui alone and neither of them can prevent Fuuma from turning evil. In what-if scenarios, Kamui would have turned as evil as Fuuma does whereas Fuuma would have retained his personality. | |

Carly Nagisa from Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds definitely counts. A few other Dark Signers might qualify too. Misty, Kiryu, and Bommer weren't exactly willing recruits, and were tricked into serving the Earthbound Gods. This is the biggest reason why a lot of the Dark Signers ended up having second thoughts, and in two cases, tried to rebel against their masters. | |

Ace Attorney: Phoenix usually only defends clients that he trusts to be innocent (and with his lie-detecting Magatama, he can usually make sure of this), but twice he has been forced to defend guilty clients because somebody kidnapped his assistant Maya and threatened to kill her if Phoenix didn't get the client off. Lana Skye in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney is The Dragon for a corrupt Chief of Police: she helps him forge evidence and frame the people he wants framed because he holds evidence that her little sister committed a murder. (It's forged evidence — he killed the person himself and set things up to gain a hold on Lana.) |

Babylon 5: The Drakh use a parasitic Restraining Bolt to control their operatives, who are aware of their actions but usually unable to control themselves. Londo Mollari was a 3-dimensional character who walked a tightrope that made him something of a Heel–Face Revolving Door. By the final series he's mostly settled into being a sympathetic character, which is tragically when the Drakh blackmail him into accepting a Keeper. |

Oracle of Tao, the Big Bad of the first game (there's also a Playable Epilogue that has a totally different enemy) is basically sent out on an exploration mission for his fellow demons (they're in a Crapsack World and looking to escape). The very first town he visits, all the villagers treat him like a pariah and he is sealed in an urn. Needless to say, he quickly decides to do something not so good not long after, and basically decides he doesn't care enough to spare the world he visited, instead preferring to violently merge the two worlds. | |

Things turn out to be less bad than they appear because the two of them have formed an Enemy Mine against Mother with Siegfried even sacrificing himself to keep Rudy alive.

A Different Miraculous Set of Circumstances... (Miraculous Ladybug): Adrien is brainwashed all the time, and sometimes literally beaten into obedience. He retains just enough sense of self to not target people with Cataclysm, and keep his Love Interest at arm's length. | |

The Devil's Mirror: The Seven Disfigured Swordsmen who serves the evil Jiuxian Witch are actually lawful warriors poisoned by the witch's Corpse Worm Pills, who ends up having their faces melted and would die agonizingly within days. They're forced to perform assassinations and theft under the witch's orders, where upon completing their assignment, the witch will give them half the antidote, prolonging their lives for a few more days, making them return to serve her later on. Near the halfway point of the film, two remaining swordsmen decide to pull a Heel–Face Turn to save the heroes, getting killed by the Witch's underlings in the process. | |
