When one turns an unfortunate and unexpected set of events into a positive and/or fortuitous outcome. A crisis occurs. It might be quite serious or be a relatively minor event, and it might even be deliberately manufactured by a character in order to bring about this trope. Either way, the crisis makes things harder, scarier or tougher for everyone except one or more characters or groups of characters to whom it's not necessarily a bad thing, and who seem to not only persevere in the face of the adversity, but outright triumph. Sure, they may have to make sacrifices too, but that's an acceptable loss. Because now they finally have the chance they've been waiting for. Rather than respond appropriately to the crisis and nothing more, the character or group decides to use the situation to their advantage in some way. While this tactic is commonly used by the Big Bad, Magnificent Bastard, and The Conspiracy to grab power and become dictators and by The Chessmaster to further their own goals, it can also be played positively. The idea that meeting and overcoming a crisis can pave the way to greatness is a pretty common one. Compare Xanatos Speed Chess. Examples |

In Tower of God, White, a Slayer of FUG, had made a Deal with the Devil that allowed him to gain power by consuming the souls of others. He set himself up a system to do this on an industrial scale by appearing as a different messianic figure for two different kingdoms and getting them to wage war with each other indefinitely. He got about a billion souls out of it before he was stopped by a Princess of Jahad. | |

In episode 2 of Gate, the Empire attacks the JSDF forces with an army of over three hundred thousand troops. Unfortunately they suffer heavy losses in Curb-Stomp Battle after battle, within a matter of days. The Emperor however, sent none of their troops into battle; instead they had tributary nations send their troops to their deaths. Turns out the Emperor purposely did this to whittle his allied nation's military strength, lest they decide to turn on the Empire itself. He later orders a Salt the Earth policy in the surrounding regions to further quell any attempts at rebellion under the guise of denying the enemy JSDF forces resources. | |

Twig takes a different path. The Lambsbridge Gang have a small tendency to deliberately make things significantly worse before they can get a handle on making it sort-of better. Justified because they're usually thrown into badly chaotic situations and crises in order to do their jobs to start with, and directing part of the can of crazy gives them a way to control some of it... And, because Sylvester. | |

In Worm, this is for the most part averted in relations between supervillains and superheroes. In the event of an S-class threat, it's common practice to band together and take it down, to the point that it's standard procedure for when the Endbringers-massive Kaiju-like creatures that have destroyed entire nations-attack. When Armsmaster sabotages this truce for a shot at personal glory, therefore, it is both a perfect example of this trope and a Moral Event Horizon. Hookwolf pulls this off when the Slaughterhouse Nine attack by accusing the Undersiders and Travelers of this; they've been encroaching on his territory, and he declares his intention to exclude them from the alliance he's forming unless they stop developing the territory they've just seized. |

Metal Gear: Green: Night Owl exploits the death of the Tyrant by setting up the HPSC's Vice President as The Scapegoat for their demise. They proceed to subtly eliminate their other competition and rise up the ranks, becoming the new Vice President for the HPSC around the time that Outer Heaven is formed. After Fudaki dies during the USJ attack, the HPSC plans to exploit the tragedy by using it as leverage to force U.A. under their thumb. At the same time, Principal Nezu aims to use the same tragedy to get the MSF on U.A.'s soil so they can use it to track Night Owl's positions in Japan. |

In Harry Potter and the Endless Night, it's unclear just how far Lucius took this in regards to a vampire attack that happens in Surrey. Was he simply using said attack as a chance to gauge Alucards' abilities, or did he take it a step further by being aware that his son Draco was working at the mall there and taking advantage of the attack to get Draco killed? | |

In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003), when the Triceracons invaded Earth, the Shredder decided to stand by and watch, believing it would present some "opportunities". After the invasion was over, he used his persona as Oroko Saki as a kind benefactor and started cleaning up the damage caused to New York. Not only does this net his organization a lot of good PR, but he was able to collect the remains of Triceraton technology and use it to build himself a starship with which he could return to space and enact his revenge on the Utroms. | |

In the Lyrical Nanoha/Naruto crossover Tome of the Orange Sky, the titular tome, heavily damaged, bonds with Naruto, in the process absorbing the consciousness of Kurama, as well as the chakra constructs of Minato and Kushina. Sarutobi, after learning that the nine-tailed fox is effectively dead, uses the chance to inform all three councils that Naruto being the jinchuuriki was a ruse, and that the real jinchuuriki's identity is a secret known only to him and a select few others. | |

In Loved and Lost, an extended retelling of "A Canterlot Wedding", Prince Jewelius helps Twilight Sparkle stop the Changeling invasion herself. However, he then uses the incident as ammunition against Princess Celestia and the other Element Bearers, telling the public that they refused to heed any of Twilight's efforts to warn them about how strangely the disguised Queen Chrysalis was acting, claiming that Celestia cared more about holding the wedding than dealing with a threat she knew had been made against Canterlot. Thanks to all of the Royal Guards and citizens who were injured during the attack, he easily turns the princesses, Shining Armor and Twilight's friends into hated pariahs, setting himself up as Equestia's new king. He originally made a deal with Chrysalis to take over Equestria together and helped her infiltrate Canterlot, but once he decided he'd gain more out of making Twilight his pawn, he betrayed the Changelings by helping Twilight defeat them and pinning the blame for the disaster on all the other heroes. | |

According to both myth and historical record, Cao Cao — the King of Wei most known for his starring role in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms — was assessed by a renowned sage, who was famous for always being able to tell someone's true potential. He stated that Cao Cao would be 'A decent administrator in peaceful times, or a blood-stained hero in chaotic times.' A few years later, the long period of civil war known as the Three Kingdoms Period got started, and Cao Cao lived up to the prediction by turning the crisis into his opportunity - eventually outmaneuvering both Wu and Shu, and seizing control of all China with the formation of a new Dynasty (it didn't last more than three generations before his trusted strategist, Sima Yi, pulled an Evil Chancellor and seized power for himself — but by then, Cao Cao was several years in the grave, so you can hardly blame him for that). | |

Occurs in The Death of Stalin, after the titular dictator's debilitating stroke. As he's still alive but comatose, his cabinet initially freak out over the necessity of summoning a doctor, as most of the good ones have already been arrested and purged and if Stalin recovers and learns that they summoned a bad doctor to treat him, they risk facing his wrath. It doesn't take very long for them to realise the opportunity within the crisis, however; any doctor capable of reversing Stalin's not-quite-brain-dead-but-might-as-well-be condition is by definition a good doctor (if not a literal miracle worker), and if the doctor is incapable of doing so Stalin will never know anyway, meaning his cabinet can get on with the business of getting ready to replace him. | |

Judge Doom in Who Framed Roger Rabbit became the Judge of Toontown in order to prevent Toon-on-Human Crimes like the tragic death of Detective Teddy Valiant when a Toon robbed a Bank. As it turned out it was Judge Doom that robbed the bank and killed Teddy in the first place, using the money he stole to buy out the election for the position. | |

In Code Geass: The Prepared Rebellion, Reuben Ashford offers Princess Cornelia to build and operate the first Knightmare factory in Area 11. The business proposal comes in at just the right time when the Viceroy was wondering how to keep her troops supplied after Homeland sent her crappy Spider Tanks instead of proper Knightmare Frames. Despite realizing that Reuben had self-serving reasons to help her with her problems, Cornelia had nothing but praise for his impeccable Magnificent Bastardy. | |

In Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg, this is a big part of Canada's strategy: waiting until the Internationale and the Reichspakt are at war to make invading them easier, using the chaos of the Second American Civil War to seize large parts of the United States including New England, and seizing the Legation Cities in China if the Triads take control of them. Prior to the events of the game, the United States established a Banana Republic on much of Central America, but thanks to poor management and The Great Depression, Nicaragua managed to liberate itself from American hegemony - or rather, half of it did; Americans begrudgingly conceded the western half of Nicaragua (including its capital) to the socialist rebels due to them being too busy dealing with the Great Depression to be able to properly intervene, but retained the eastern half to continue their economic exploitation there, and warned the rebels that any further action from them would see a very swift American intervention. As soon as the United States falls into civil war, the Nicaraguan rebels can immediately take advantage of the power vacuum to finally liberate the eastern half of the country and weed out the remaining US Marines while Uncle Sam is too busy to do anything about it. If the Commune of France elects the Jacobins or the Sorelians, it can very quickly plunge itself into chaos and civil war as the Travailleurs and Anarchistes revolt over the former's policies betraying the working class and the revolution. National France and the German Empire can then use this opportunity to declare war and quickly stackwipe the divided and weakened Communards. |

Lasseter escapes execution for treason at the end of American Ultra by pointing out that, however disastrous the events of the film were, they were also the ultimate field test for Mike. He's proven to be an incredibly skilled operative, so attempting to eliminate all loose ends (like her) and pretending like the night never happened would be a huge waste. When he agrees to join the CIA, she's set up as his Mission Control. | |

Billions Bobby Axelrod is renowned for being the sole survivor of a hedge fund whose offices were destroyed on 9/11 who managed to build the firm back up after the tragedy. It's later revealed that the reason he wasn't in the office was because he was in the process of being fired from the firm for insider trading and he was at his lawyer's office finalizing the severance package paperwork. When the first plane hit, he took advantage of the fact he still had access to the firm's resources and made his fortune short selling stocks before the market closed. | |

Ascendance of a Bookworm: When Myne gets a job usually given only to children from noble families, the harassments she gets include someone ransacking the book room she considers the job's biggest perk. She spends some time being furious, then realizes that whoever will be cleaning up the mess gets to choose where things are put back. The book room didn't have any sort of classification system before being ransacked, and Myne decided this was good time to introduce one. During the Interduchy Tournament of Rozemyne's second year at the Royal Academy, a student from another duchy with a resentment towards Rozemyne's retainer Hartmut launches an attack that accidentally hurts Rozemyne instead. Later, the fallout of an even worse event results in some of the country's higher-ups wanting Rozemyne to officiate the Royal Academy's coming-of-age ceremony. Rozemyne's Delicate and Sickly nature combined with the fact that she had to use a lot of mana to protect and heal the people from Ehrenfest during said even worse event falls short of convincing the higher-ups to let her sit things out. Ehrenfest's archduke convinces them by mentioning the fact that she was personally attacked before the even worse event and the ceremony would leave her unprotected. |

The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past: Agahnim's actions before the game started brought him much acclaim. He was famous for stopping a blaze and then he saved Hyrule from a rather mysterious pestilence and drought when no one else in the world could. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds: Yuga is not, himself, responsible for Lorule's current state; however, when Princess Hilda learns about Hyrule and its Triforce, he decides to make manipulations to take the Hyrulean Triforce for himself. |

In Tropic Thunder, when the Flaming Dragon drug cartel attempt to ransom actor Tugg Speedman, studio head Les Grossman tells them to do whatever they want with him since aside from seeing Speedman as past his prime he thinks his death would be great for PR and a potential insurance cash-in that would make them more than the film ever could. At the end of the film, when the whole Troubled Production of the film is made into an Oscar-winning documentary, Grossman takes credit for the film revitalizing Speedman's career. | |

Service with a Smile: Weiss once comforted a dying ten-year-old girl by singing for her. Her father had pictures of it published everywhere to illustrate "how caring the Schnee family was". Weiss never forgave him for taking such a personal and private moment and spinning it into propaganda. After the Breach, Jaune is given so many bouquets by well-wishers that there's simply no space for them all, so Velvet and Russel start giving them away to others who were injured in the attack. Unlike Jacques, this wasn't an intentional attempt to exploit the situation. |

Batman: Batman: No Man's Land: The Penguin's Iceberg Lounge is the only place in Gotham that still accepts cash and jewels as payment for goods (albeit heavily marked up), as he is fully aware that there was no way the No Man's Land law was legal and would last for long. So once it was revoked he would be extremely wealthy. On two fronts with Lex Luthor. First, he gives massive aid to Gotham near the coming end to the No Man's Land article, despite being against the law, to majorly boost his poll numbers in the upcoming presidential race. He even flat out admits it to the press. The other reason is he had Bane destroy all of the legal permits and created fake ones where he pretty much owned all of the land in Gotham. Batman was able to figure it out in time and saved copies of the legit ones, foiling Lex's plan. |

In The Flash (2014), the Earth-2 version of Harrison Wells is a particularly blatant example considering that he caused said crisis. After an experiment of his accidentally unleashes a bunch of villainous metahumans on his earth, he decides he might as well make some money off of it and starts selling anti-metahuman technology to scared civilians. This enrages his earth's Flash, but Wells just denies responsibility when that Flash attempts to call him out on it. When one of the metahumans kidnaps his daughter, he finally gets serious about helping to stop them. Later it's revealed that the said metahuman is the Flash of his world, and was using Wells's resulting infamy as a recruiting pitch, making him an example of this trope as well. | |

In Frozen (2013), Prince Hans's original plan was to seduce Princess Anna, and then arrange an accident to eliminate Queen Elsa, so Anna would become Queen of Arendelle (implying that he would then have Anna eliminated so he would become king). When Elsa's ice powers were revealed to the public and Elsa accidentally froze Anna's heart, he chose to leave her to die, tell the cabinet that he and Anna said their vows before her untimely death, and have Elsa condemned for killing her sister. | |

In Enigma (2001) when the codebreakers have lost their key to the Nazi transmissions, they need a known message to get back in. They realize a convoy is about to be attacked, and that the Nazis will include its location and speed in their reports: this is information the Allies already know and can therefore serve as the "known" message the codebreakers need. They don't want to "sacrifice" a convoy, but if it's going to happen anyway "we might as well use it to our advantage." | |

Problem is, Fu knows that the Butterfly doesn't have nearly enough range to effectively control an akuma from that great a distance... unless, of course, Hawkmoth is in the area. Especially since he creates two akumas during the event. On top of that, Gabriel personally appears during the event, putting him back on Ladybug's radar as somebody potentially involved with Hawkmoth. | |

When Bakugou starts sneaking out to become a Vigilante Man, Nedzu is fully aware of it... and lets it continue in order to play them as an Unwitting Pawn, engineering things so that Uraraka encounters them as an opponent. When Tartarus is assaulted, Nedzu naturally wants to send Class 1-A to the front lines as a publicity stunt. |

Gundam: Garma Zabi's death in the One Year War in Mobile Suit Gundam leads to massive funeral with thousands of people mourning him. Cue his brother Gihren turning the funeral into a massive political rally to drum up support for the war, and giving his famous "Sieg Zeon!" speech. Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory: Operation Stardust is revealed to be a plan for the Zeon remnants to unleash a Colony Drop. Several less ethical members of the Federation (Jamitov Hymen and Gene Coliny) broker a deal with the Cima Marines in an attempt to utilize the attack for their own ends. Jamitov and Coliny obstruct the heroes' attempts to stop the tragedy and formulate their own plan to destroy the colony with a superweapon (and having Cima's forces betray the Zeon faction). Their plan to stop the colony is thwarted and it still hits the Earth, but they're able to use the atrocity to drum up anti-Spacenoid sentiment and launch the Titans, setting them up as the villains for Zeta Gundam. In the manga retelling, Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Rebellion, the future Titans also use the fighting as a means to wipe out the Cima Marines they'd allied with; eliminating another loose end. |

A Wolf Amongst Lions: When Joffery is murdered, Tywin manipulates things in order to implicate Tyrion, resulting in their exile. He also uses this as an excuse to send Cersei back to Casterly Rock, and to arrange an engagement for Arya and Jaime. Since Arya, Tyrion and Tywin know how Littlefinger regularly turns war and conflict to their advantage, they bait him into an Engineered Public Confession by having Arya suggest that she's interested in another Stark-Lannister war, getting them to brag about the part they played in attempting to assassinate Tommen and Tywin while others are listening in. |

The Super-Revenge of Lex Luthor: The titular villain finds himself serving time in an asteroid prison where attempts to escape are punished by turning the perpetrator into a glass statue. As gathering fruit, Luthor finds a small crashed spacecraft.

As it turns out in the Soviet victory scenario in Command & Conquer: Red Alert, the entire Russian war effort was a plan by Kane to expand the USSR, then topple it, and use the ensuing chaos to strengthen the Brotherhood of Nod. Many fans take the stance that the primary C&C games are set in the timeline where Kane's plan succeeded (i.e. the Allies lost the war), while the subsequent Red Alert games are set in the timeline where he failed (i.e. the Allies won). | |

Daredevil (2015): Wilson Fisk cements his position as an organized crime boss in Hell's Kitchen by engaging in bid-rigging on government reconstruction contracts in light of the Incident. In "Into the Ring", Wesley admonishes Vladimir and Anatoly for letting one individual in a mask make short work of the men working their human trafficking operation at the docks. To which Leland Owlsley scoffs, "Again, I have to ask, why do we care! Every time one of these guys punches someone through a building, our margins go up 3%. We should be celebrating." In "Condemned", Matt Murdock is holed up with Vladimir in an abandoned building, and overpowers a police officer who stumbles upon them, but not before the officer is able to call for help. Ben Urich, who'd just published a piece on Karen's leak of Fisk's corruption at Union Allied, is among the reporters at the scene, trying to get a statement from Detective Blake and Detective Hoffman. Wesley, tipped off by Blake and Hoffman, tells Fisk that if Ben gets suspicious, they might have a problem. Fisk replies, "Problems are just opportunities that haven't presented themselves." In a positive example, Jeri Hogarth benefits from the fallout of Wilson Fisk's arrest by hiring on Marci Stahl and other Landman & Zack personnel. |

This doesn't go the way he hoped. The HSPC exploits the resulting scandal, taking the opportunity to investigate Aizawa's teaching methods and push into U.A., hoping to dig their hooks deeper into the school. |

The Elder Scrolls series has the 4th Era incarnation of the Aldmeri Dominion pull this off. After ruling the Sumerset Isles (as well as Valenwood and Elsweyr at various points) for thousands of years, the Dominion was on the receiving end of a nasty Curb-Stomp Battle from Tiber Septim and Numidium, bringing them into an empire of Men by force for the first time in history. The Dominion laid dormant during the reign of the Septim Empire, but found new life following the Oblivion Crisis which saw the end of the Septim dynasty. The Thalmor, a facistic elven-supremacist group of Altmeri religious extremists, took credit within their homeland for ending the Oblivion Crisis, winning them massive populist support. In short order, they reformed the Dominion, forcefully annexed Valenwood, and convinced to Khajiit to join as vassals with more Blatant Lies. They waged war on what was left of the Third Empire, and though the Empire would survive the war, they at least managed to force unfavorable terms onto the Vestigial Empire of Cyrodiil which set the stage for it to further fall apart. The Thalmor are motivated by an old Altmeri religious belief that the mortal world was a cruel trick on their divine ancestors which forced them to experience mortal suffering, loss, and death, and they believe that if the mortal world is unmade, it will return their spirits to a state of pre-creation divinity. One stage in this plan involves the destruction of Talos, the ascended god form of Tiber Septim (and possibly others), who may be the last thing keeping the mortal world extant. (And there is evidence that they may be right about this.) Obviously, this would paint them as Omnicidal Maniacs in the eyes of just about every other race (including among other Altmer who do not share this belief), so they have had to be crafty in implementing this plan. | |

As they present themselves as the strongest martial arts dojo, the Ryozanpaku from Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple is often challenged by groups that want to put this reputation to test... So, being perpetually short on money, they charge a 10,000 yen fee per challenger, plus an additional thousand yen per challenger if they want to attack as a group, and once they horribly beat the challengers up they bring them to the clinics of two of their members to be healed for a large fee. | |

One Piece: The Sun Pirates are forced to reunite as a crew and leave Fish-Man Island after their captain Jimbei renounces his position as a Warlord during the Paramount War to fight on the side of the Whitebeard Pirates, the long-time protectors of Fish-Man Island. Unfortunately, Whitebeard dies during the war, causing Fish-Man Island to lose his protection. So, over the Time Skip, the Sun Pirates take advantage of their new circumstances to broker a deal with Big Mom to get Fish-Man Island her protection to replace Whitebeard's, by offering to become her newest subordinates in addition to their people giving her a monthly tribute of candy. Ultimately it works out, with the deal sealed with a marriage between Aladdin (first-mate of the Sun Pirates) and one of Big Mom's daughters, Charlotte Praline. | |

Game of Thrones: Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish gives a great Motive Rant on the subject: "Chaos is a ladder..." Seriously, this is basically his life philosophy. Take a drink every time he uses a crisis to acquire more power, and make sure an ambulance is on hand for your alcohol poisoning. Tyrion sarcastically remarks on this trope re: his own Magnificent Bastard father, Lord Tywin. Tyrion has been thrown into prison for regicide, and Tywin convinces a Dornish prince who hates him to stand as an 'objective' judge, thus forming an alliance of convenience with a potentially troublesome House. |

The Godzilla vs. Kong movie's novelization reveals that the Apex Cybernetics corporation indirectly helped the military try to kill the Titans by helping them build the Oxygen Destroyer before the events of the previous movie, which Bernie regards as Apex capitalizing on the threat the Titans posed. The novel also reveals that Mechagodzilla's signal instigating Godzilla to attack Apex's Pensacola facility was a genuine accident on Apex's part, but afterwards, with the whole world misinterpreting Godzilla's attack and believing he's gone bad; Apex are all too happy to intentionally repeat the results in a more densely-populated city, so that Godzilla's name will be smeared even further before they set Mechagodzilla on him. | |

Even though the ship has been smashed by the guards and its fuel removed, Luthor stealthily salvages the wrecked ship for parts, builds one machine which turns the glassified inmates into rocket fuel and a space suit capable of interplanetary travel, and escapes from prison. | |

The Ultimates: Gregory Stark sees the events of Ultimatum as an opportunity to usurp Tony's position as chief supplier of tech to S.H.I.E.L.D., not to mention his plan to create super soldiers for a democratic revolution in oppressed dictatorships. | |

A core problem in Myke Cole's Shadow Ops; After The Magic Comes Back, the chaos of humans unused to possessing Magic and Powers enables every government in the world to remove many civil liberties - especially those of "Latents". The catch is of course that their goal is merely to control the crisis, and in fact take every step they can to extend and even exacerbate it - When a Fantastic Drug is developed to help Latents control their abilities, they nationalize it and use it to enhance their Mage Killers and imprison/kill every Latent who won't submit to being enslaved. | |

In Leviathan Wakes, tensions between Earth, Mars and the colonized asteroid Belt eventually erupt into open war across the Solar System. Later it is revealed that the events that set the war in motion were provoked and incited by the Protogen Corporation, to provide a smokescreen for large-scale human experiments with the Protomolecule . | |

South Park: Several characters are seen using the COVID-19 Pandemic to their advantage during the pandemic special episode: Cartman uses the lockdown order to stay home and do nothing all day, not even bothering to shower or attend virtual classes. Randy's weed business is one of the few doing well during the pandemic, he even releases a "Pandemic Special" strain of weed for the occasion. President Garrison is doing nothing to stop the pandemic, because he believes it will kill off all the Mexicans in America. When the students at South Park Elementary break quarantine, triggering a panic-induced riot throughout the town, Yates convinces Mayor McDaniels to refund the police department. They use the money to buy everything from assault rifles to tanks to heavy artillery, then go on a murder spree killing kids all over South Park. An earlier example was in "About Last Night", when the rowdy, drunken Obama supporters are causing chaos in South Park (tipping over Officer Barbrady's car when he attempted to put an end to the drunken revelry); Cartman rolls up on his Big Wheel, with a cart strapped to the back filled with stolen TVs, asking Stan and Kyle if they want to buy one. This becomes a Brick Joke when Randy wakes up the next morning, hungover and wondering where his TV is (and where his pants are, for that matter). |

The Legend of Korra: This is revealed to be the reason as to why Tarrlok is taking such extreme actions against the Equalists and unaffiliated non-benders. He's only using the Equalist crisis to further his own goals of cementing his power over Republic City, which is why he shoots down any other more reasonable actions to take against them. Varrick essentially tried to do this while opposing Unalaq. Once Unalaq's arrival angered the Southerners, it gave him the opportunity to start a war to make a lot of money from. After the war starts in the Southern Water Tribe, he wanted to magnify it on a global scale by instigating false flag terrorist attacks in Republic City that would implicate the North. However, since the Water Tribe crisis involved Vaatu's return, it wouldn't have benefitted Varrick in the long run. |

An Oglaf strip has a king receive the news of the ongoing destruction of his kingdom by the "Dark Marauder" with utter glee: he was a terrible king and had left the kingdom at the brink of ruin but now "ruin has arrived" and it's not his fault. The strip ends with the king thanking the Dark Marauder just as the latter is about to chop off the king's head. | |

EXTRAPOWER: Attack of Darkforce: This is why Fei Huang Rong has become disenfranchized with the Kinreikan. This globe-spanning ancient conspiracy of kung fu mystics and exorcists take every opportunity to advance their wealth, even enriching themselves off disasters and conflict. He fully expects that any help they give against the Dark Force invasion will be more to gain some tangible benefit rather than simply aiding the Earth's defense. However, this also means he knows that their coffers are overflowing, and insists that the team squeeze the Kinreikan for as much as they can when Platinum worries about becoming indebted to them over their help. | |

Batman: No Man's Land: The Penguin's Iceberg Lounge is the only place in Gotham that still accepts cash and jewels as payment for goods (albeit heavily marked up), as he is fully aware that there was no way the No Man's Land law was legal and would last for long. So once it was revoked he would be extremely wealthy. On two fronts with Lex Luthor. First, he gives massive aid to Gotham near the coming end to the No Man's Land article, despite being against the law, to majorly boost his poll numbers in the upcoming presidential race. He even flat out admits it to the press. The other reason is he had Bane destroy all of the legal permits and created fake ones where he pretty much owned all of the land in Gotham. Batman was able to figure it out in time and saved copies of the legit ones, foiling Lex's plan. |

Harry and the Shipgirls: Everyone who disagreed with the Wizarding World's Statute of Secrecy exploits how it's become harder and harder to enforce during the Abyssal War. Lucius also takes advantage of the way that Fudge has been poorly managing their response to the Abyssal War to increase his own power and influence. Councillor Ito uses the looming threat of an impending civil war and the Tokyo Diet's incompetence to call for a Vote of No Confidence against them, formally switching the government over to Kyoto. |

All For One is more than happy to take advantage of any opportunity that arises to twist matters to his own selfish ends. Hell, he was the one who accidentally caused the Mass Super-Empowering Event and kicked off the plot in the first place! When something goes wrong, he's right there whispering poisonous thoughts to Luz. Most notably when Luz discovers the mangled corpses of her camper friends, he encourages the distraught girl to brutally kill their murderers and steal their Quirks. |

In Star Trek: The Next Generation this is a recurring theme with Starfleet Politics where more than once Picard clashes with ranking officers who are taking advantage of a current crisis to get away with their misdeeds. In the aftermath of Admiral Sati demonizing Simon Tarsis for being part human and part Romulan, Picard points out that people like her will be waiting for the right time to flourish, spreading fear and ignorance to keep themselves in power. | |
