The plot where the object that everyone is looking for turns out to have been transformed into a person (with the occasional variation of being a Robot Girl). It's usually (but not always) a girl, and is usually associated with several of the following tropes or plot elements:

Kamen Rider Fourze's Kengo used to be a fidget switch. While he's not directly necessary for the villain's plans, he is necessary for the Big Good's, so the villain wants to kill him.

In Super Paper Mario, the character Luvbi is a Pure Heart transformed into a Nimbi by her parents. She only became aware of her true nature at the end of Chapter 7. After that, she volunteers to revert to her true form so that Mario and the gang can continue on with their quest, though finishing the game reveals that she was later brought back as an actual Nimbi.

World of Warcraft: Anveena Teague was the last pure energy of the Sunwell, given human form by the red dragon Korialstrasz. It was supposed to just be an illusion to hide the energies but got a bit more complicated when she started developing her own emotions.

Kamen Rider Ex-Aid has several members of the cast who used to be video game programs before they were brought to life. Most of them are villains, but in the second act they also all double as the Macguffins the Big Bad's after, since he needs their data to create the ultimate video game.

Yvaine from Stardust is the fallen star that the potential heirs to the throne, the witch trio, and the protagonist all need to retrieve. Of course, we know she's a star right from her introduction, and so does everybody else. The hero was a little slow on the uptake.

In Gold Digger there are at least two characters that fit this, Array (who among other things can create and absorb new bodies of virtually any type and ability, recreate them at will, and each new body has its own mind/personality that remains distinct within the original's mind when absorbed) and the title character's paternal grandmother (who was forced back into her MacGuffin form prior to the start of the series to be used by one of the Big Bad's due to her particular set of magical powers).

Dawn in Buffy the Vampire Slayer is an ancient energy construct called The Key who was hidden in human form by a group of mystical monks. Specifically, they made her Buffy's sister through a Cosmic Retcon, so that Buffy's drive to protect her would be even stronger. Glory wants to use Dawn's blood to open the doorway back to her native dimension, but the process would doom our world and possibly even every other. In the end, it turns out that Dawn's human form was just created out of Buffy's blood, so Buffy can close the portal by making a Heroic Sacrifice in her place.
