Plot-Triggering Death	comment	Between the many ways death can be used in media, there's its use as a trigger for the start of the story itself. It could start a Roaring Rampage of Revenge from part of the protagonists and pull them into something even greater, maybe looking for the truth behind the death could make the protagonist know about something he wasn't supposed to know, the protagonist could suddenly see himself having to continue where the deceased left off, or the execution of a baddie may bring forth something even worse, etc. In order for a death to be covered by this trope, it has to satisfy some conditions: The death has to either occur before the story begins or during the first moments of it. The death must either: Make the plot start moving (without needing to affect the protagonists directly at first), or Make the protagonists start taking some kind of action that later pulls them into the big plot (which must not be necessarily related to the death). In cases of TV series or long runners with clear continuity, the death must have affected the big picture of the series. For example, the deaths occurring on every episode of a murder mystery series do not count; but the death of a close one that made the protagonist take the decision to become a detective so he could investigate the mystery behind that murder does count. Deaths in these kind of works that trigger new mystery arcs also count. On some occasions, the death is self-triggered: if My Death Is Just the Beginning, then the protagonist obviously can't force the antagonist to stop... antagonizing. Can sometimes overlap with Starts with a Suicide, Posthumous Character, Death by Origin Story, The Lost Lenore, I Let Gwen Stacy Die, Crusading Widow, Doomed Hometown (can be a greater scale of this trope), Starts with Their Funeral, Unexpected Inheritance, and the list goes on and on. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_1aacbbc9	comment	Dragon Age: Depending on which origin is chosen in Dragon Age: Origins, there may be at least one of these for the protagonist in their backstory. But for all of the origins (and Alistair), the deaths of King Cailan and the rest of the Fereldan Grey Wardens are the starting point of everything going to hell. Dragon Age: Origins â€“ Awakening, the post-game expansion pack, starts with the darkspawn attacking and killing almost everyone in the Wardens' fortress of Vigil's Keep. Malcolm Hawke's death sometime prior to the beginning of Dragon Age II leaves his widow and children in a very bad situation when their home in Ferelden is destroyed by darkspawn. The DLC The Exiled Prince is kickstarted by the murders of Prince Sebastian Vael's entire immediate family; he only survived because he's a priest and was in a different part of the continent at the time. Dragon Age: Inquisition: Everyone (except the player) who attended the Divine's Conclave died prior to the beginning of the game.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_1cc09117	comment	Bleach: The deaths of Masaki Kurosaki, Souken Ishida, Kaien Shiba, and Hisana Kuchiki all combine to create the reason why the first 181 chapters of the manga unfold as they do. Even after those chapters have passed, Masaki's death continues to be the motivation for Ichigo's resolve to protect as many people as he can, Souken's death remains the primary motivation for Uryuu's determination to stand by Ichigo and work with the shinigami despite quincies and shinigami being traditional enemies, Kaien's demise is the reason why Rukia opened up the path to power for Ichigo in the first place (and continues to guide her decisions after she replaces him as 13th division lieutenant), and the death of Hisana is the reason why Byakuya adopted Rukia and why Ichigo and Byakuya now possess a bond so unbreakable it can even defy brainwashing. Without those four deaths, this story would have been completely different, or perhaps even non-existent. Plot-triggering deaths have been confirmed to have impacted the final arc as well. Both Masaki and Kanae's deaths are tied into the events of the final arc having been caused by Yhwach performing The Purge on impure quincies six years before the beginning of the story. The impact of these two deaths on the behaviour and decisions of their husbands (Isshin and Ryuuken) over the intervening years, and subsequently on their sons (Ichigo and Uryuu), are hugely important to the development of the final arc.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_22147342	comment	Arrow: Every single instance somehow stems from the first entry, Rebecca Merlyn, and caused a season's worth of problems. Seasons 1, 3, and 5 can be chained together, while Season 2 is only connected to Season 1. The only season that wasn't the result of a death, from either Oliver's five years away from home or previous seasons, was Season 4. The death of Rebecca Merlyn twenty-one years before the start of the series is the very impetus for the entire show. If she hadn't died, then her husband Malcolm Merlyn wouldn't have gone insane in trying to avenge her death with the Undertaking and try to kill his best friend Robert in order to stop him from trying to prevent it, resulting in Oliver Queen being stranded on Lian Yu for five years and becoming the Arrow. Shado's death on the island is what prompts the events of Season 2. Slade Wilson, who loved her, is driven insane by the Mirakuru, and Oliver's role in her death twists his mind and causes him to direct his rage at Oliver, his friends, his family, and ultimately Star(ling) City as a whole. The death of Sara Lance causes the events of Season 3. Malcolm Merlyn brainwashes his daughter Thea into killing her, forcing Oliver to take the blame and in turn, pique Ra's al Ghul's interest. Sara was later revived at the beginning of Season 4. Ra's al Ghul's death is the trigger for Season 5, as his daughter Talia al Ghul was so enraged by it that she trained Big Bad Prometheus to help her take revenge on Oliver.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_2664f44a	comment	A staple of the Yakuza series (in chronological order): Yakuza 0: The murder of a debtor Kiryu had shaken down in an otherwise insignificant empty lot drags him into a brewing civil war within the Tojo Clan, with a massive real estate development and the future Chairmanship on the line. Yakuza: Nishiki's murder of Sohei Dojima lands Kiryu in jail for ten years, and therefore unavailable to prevent Nishiki's Start of Darkness. Later, the murder of Chairman Sera is linked to the disappearance of 10 billion yen, sparking a civil war in the Tojo Clan with the Chairmanship on the line. Yakuza 2: The assassination of Fifth Chairman Terada leaves the Tojo Clan leaderless and therefore vulnerable to attack from their rivals, the Omi Alliance, and it's up to Kiryu to provide some stability before a full on gang war begins. Yakuza 3: The attempted assassination of Sixth Chairman Daigo Dojima (along with the theft of the deed to the orphanage Kiryu's been running) draws Kiryu out of retirement on Okinawa and up against a government conspiracy that threatens both the Tojo Clan and Kiryu's new family. Yakuza 6: The son of a Chinese triad boss is murdered in Kamurocho, leading to a gang war between the triad and the Tojo Clan that Kiryu gets involved in because his adoptive niece/daughter, Haruka, unwittingly had a child with the triad boss' Spare to the Throne, and was put in a coma after an attempted hit on the infant. Yakuza: Like a Dragon: First, Masumi Arakawa's father was assassinated by Ryuhei Hoshino due to his wife stealing counterfeit bills from the Seiryu, leading Masumi to the yakuza for both survival and to start a quest for revenge. Decades later, Masumi is the patriarch of his own branch of the Tojo Clan, and has a disabled son, Masato. Second, when Masato gets into a fight with and kills Chikao Suzumori, a mook from a rival yakuza family, it leads to Masumi's protector, protagonist Ichiban Kasuga, taking the heat and going to jail. When Ichiban's released, his quest to uncover what's happened to the Arakawa family while he was away, such as why Masumi's now working for the Omi Alliance, drives most of the plot.

If it wasn't for Robert selling the guns to the Fireflies (without Tess and Joel's permission), Joel would never have met Marlene, the Leader of the Fireflies. And if Joel had never met Marlene, he would never have had to escort Ellie to safety at her request. Even earlier, if Sarah hadn't died at the beginning, the game would probably just be about Joel and Sarah trying to survive everyday life, and Joel never would've met most of the rest of the cast.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_28c6afce	comment	The Thomas & Friends fanfic Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure Bad Ending features an alternate ending of Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure where Sailor John successfully kills Thomas, the Fat Controller resigns out of guilt for his earlier treatment of Thomas, and Gordon being Driven to Suicide after a Trauma Conga Line which involved the resigning Fat Controllerâ€™s final act being to permanently ban him from ever taking the Express or any other passenger train again and condemning him to be a shunter and goods engine for the rest of his days, all while he was hated by the other engines. Thomasâ€™s murder at Sailor Johnâ€™s hands is what triggers the Point of Divergence from canon, and Gordonâ€™s suicide plays a big role in Spencer deciding to atone for his past crimes and take over as one of the main express engines. Both of their deaths also play a massive role in Henry being (re)painted blue and also becoming a successor to Gordon as an express engine. Even today, their deaths cast a shadow over the remaining engines of the Island of Sodor.

During Season Five, the Ninja Tribunal even flat-out admit this is why they rejected Yoshi's request to help defeat the Utrom Shredder, as Yoshi had to die in order for Splinter and the turtles to exist so they could one day help bring about the final defeat of the Tengu Shredder. Judging by the regret and sympathy in Chikara's voice when telling this to Splinter, they didn't like the decision any more than he did, even if it was necessary.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_2f203125	comment	Throughout the Shin Megami Tensei series, there has been an ongoing battle between Law and Chaos, with the latter usually represented by Lucifer in some capacity, and Law usually represented by YHVH. In Shin Megami Tensei V, Lucifer kills the God of Law (who may or may not be YHVH), and the cosmic balance begins to shift violently in the years since. The God of Law created a copy of Tokyo via the Shekinah Glory where all the humans reside, and a late-game issue that makes His death a pressing matter is that the Shekinah Glory is starting to break down without Him to sustain it, which will eventually erase Tokyo and everyone still in it. And then there's the all-out war between Law and Chaos going on around you, and eventually the gods themselves take over the fighting once that is resolved.

Miranda had a romance with Diego in Villa Gesell, and everything was fine... until her best friend Sandra seduced Roby, Miranda's father. Miranda tried to see Diego again at the Buenos Aires obelisk, as planned, but he failed to meet her in time (and, trying to give mystery to their first date in Buenos Aires, they did not exchange addresses or phone numbers). She renounced everything related to Rock and Roll, swore to never interact again with the dreaded Sandra or Roby, and started a romance with Segundo, a delicate high-society boy. End of flashback. Now, in the present, Roby has died. Miranda is now the heir of Roby's rock radio, she has to work alongside Sandra (Roby's widow) on a daily basis, and Diego saw her at the funeral and finally located her after so many years.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_30a5ebfd	comment	Naruto: The title character is the person-shaped can for a monster the city's previous leader (who is also the titular character's father) died sealing in him when he was a baby. Much, much later, we learn that in a technical way, Rin's death of all things is what started the plot. Why? Because her death in the backstory directly motivated Obito into becoming Tobi...who unleashed the monster on the city in the first place, prompting the leader to seal it away inside the title character. It goes much deeper than that — it's ultimately the reason why Obito took up Madara's offer, leading to the creation of the Akatsuki, the attack of the Nine-Tailed Fox, the Uchiha Clan Massacre, and eventually, the Fourth Great Shinobi War. Had she not died, the entire plot of Naruto would have been avoided almost entirely, and chances are that both Naruto and Sasuke would have had much happier lives. Going back even further, it was the death of Princess Kaguya that laid the foundations for current events due to Black Zetsu manipulating events in an attempt to revive her. Izuna was his brother Madara's entire world. Madara is the man he is today because of Izuna's death, which allowed him to be susceptible to Black Zetsu's manipulations.

Years later, it's revealed that Lily's sacrifice to save her son invoked a very ancient magic, which gave Harry a powerful protection. This protection caused Voldemort's killing curse to rebound on him, destroying his physical body, and driving him to find a way to get it back for the next fourteen years. At the same time, Dumbledore works to try and prepare Harry, since he knows the boy is destined to fight (and hopefully defeat) Voldemort once he eventually returns to power.

In rescuing Chloe, Max also gets caught up in her desperate search for her missing friend Rachel Amber for the remainder of the story.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_3e8c09b9	comment	Attack on Titan has several significant deaths that set the events of the story in motion: The death of her parents set Mikasa neatly onto the path of becoming The Ace and Eren's protector. The death of Carla Yeager not only provides Eren with the desire to destroy all Titans but leads her husband to take drastic action before disappearing. The death of Marcel, a childhood friend of Reiner and Bertolt has unseen and far-reaching consequences. It not only returns Ymir to human form and sets her back on the board as a major player, but is the clue needed for Hange to discover that Titans possess a Cannibalism Superpower. The murder of her mother resulted in bastard princess Historia Reiss being forced into the identity of Krista Lenz. Her presence in the Survey Corps helps expose the Government Conspiracy and makes her vital to their plans to overthrow the government. The deaths of Farlan and Isabel resulted in Levi abandoning his life of crime and laying the framework for his Undying Loyalty to Erwin. Adding to Levi's story, his mother died when he was a very young child, leading to him being raised by serial killer Kenny Ackerman. Kenny is responsible for most of Levi's character traits: his clean freak behaviour, many of his combat skills (specifically with knives and guns), and his habit of telling poop jokes. Erwin's father was murdered after Erwin went around saying that his father believed that humanity wasn't really extinct, as having such opinions is forbidden (turns out he was right, however). This fuelled Erwin's desire to know the truth about humanity and the titans. Had Grisha not taken his sister Faye beyond the walls of the Eldian ghetto and unknowingly gotten her killed by Marley officers, he would have never joined the Eldia Restoration Movement and eventually end up on Paradis Island, the setting of the story. He also never would've met Kruger, the officer responsible for saving Grisha from becoming a mindless titan and giving him the Attack Titan's powers. And he would've never met his first wife Dina, with whom he had his son Zeke - the Beast Titan.

Also, the reason Miroku becomes a part of the group in the fight against Naraku is because his grandfather was such a significant enemy of Naraku's that Naraku cursed Miroku's entire lineage: the deaths of Miroku's grandfather and father are the reason he encounters Inuyasha's group and joins it, which is what enables Inuyasha to learn the identity of Kikyou's killer in the first place.

This prompted him to create a new narrative that would start the Robot War by helping Dolores continue her path of consciousness. Ford's death triggered the plot of Season 2 where the characters had to experience the host rebellion led by Dolores who is the one who killed Ford. The death of Elsie in the hands of Charlotte led to the awakening of Bernard's consciousness, prompting him to create a host replica of Charlotte and put Dolores' pearl in it. As a result, Dolores-as-Charlotte kills the real Charlotte and poses as her until she kills the Delos extraction team and flees into the modern world with Bernard's pearl and four copies of herself. This also kickstarts the plot of Season 3 where she plans to destroy the A.I. system, Rehoboam.

The plot of the Dawnguard expansion is partly triggered by the annihilation of the Vigil of Stendarr, a Church Militant group dedicated to the god of mercy, by the Volkihar vampires.

Live and Let Die: Three agents are murdered in connection with Dr. Kananga - Dawes at the United Nations, American-on-loan Hamilton outside a restaurant in New Orleans and Baines in San Monique. Octopussy: 009 is murdered in East Berlin. MI6, suspecting Soviet involvement, calls in 007. A View to a Kill: Bond finds a microchip on 003's corpse in Siberia. The Living Daylights: An assassin kills 004 during a training exercise at Gibraltar. The World Is Not Enough: Oil magnate Sir Robert King is killed in an explosion at MI6 HQ, prompting 007 to protect his daughter Elektra. Spectre: Franz Oberhauser/Ernst Stavro Blofeld committed Patricide just because his own father favored an orphaned Bond over him. This not only served as the catalyst for the Cain and Abel relationship between him and Bond in later years, but indirectly shaped the events of Casino Royale (2006), Quantum of Solace, Skyfall, and Spectre.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_7cf5a07	comment	The Flash (2014) The murder of Nora Allen fourteen years prior to the start of the series drives most of the plot of Season 1, as her son Barry's main goal is to solve it so he can get his father Henry, who was wrongly convicted for her death, out of prison. Henry Allen's own death towards the end of Season 2 breaks Barry enough to create the alternate timeline Flashpoint, the consequences of which drive most of the plot of Season 3. Iris West's premature death at the end of Season 3, as foretold in the midseason finale, was a result of Flashpoint, and also serves to get the plot going. More specifically, it acts as the lynchpin for a Stable Time Loop that ensures the existence of Big Bad Savitar. When her death is prevented in the season finale, the loop breaks and Savitar only has a few hours left before the paradox catches up to him and he ceases to exist.

The plot the DM had planned was an escort mission to bring him home to his kingdom to stop the war between them and the Elven Kingdom. However, one of the players decided to instead murder him and frame his elvish lover, turning the plot into a murder mystery Xanatos Gambit on the part of that player.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: The main plot of The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind is kicked off some 4000 years prior to the time the game takes place with the death of Lord Indoril Nerevar. His death, the subsequent events of Dagoth Ur and the Tribunal using the Heart of Lorkhan to obtain divinity, and his prophesied Reincarnation are the driving force behind the game's plot. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion begins with Uriel Septim murdered along with all his direct heirs. This severs a pact with the Aedra to keep the mortal world from the Daedra and thus starts a Hell on Earth plot. In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the civil war plotline is kicked off by the pre-game murder of High King Torygg at the hands of Jarl Ulfric Stormcloak. The plot of the Dawnguard expansion is partly triggered by the annihilation of the Vigil of Stendarr, a Church Militant group dedicated to the god of mercy, by the Volkihar vampires.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_9d47a2a2	comment	A Song of Ice and Fire doesn't have a single inciting death, but it uses them for the initiation of individual plotlines: In A Game of Thrones, Jon Arryn's death is what causes Eddard Stark (and by extension, the rest of his family) to become involved in the main plot. The Iron Islands plot in A Feast for Crows is triggered by the death of Balon Greyjoy, which happens offscreen during the events of the previous book. The deaths of Robert Baratheon and Ned Stark are what end up triggering the War of the Five Kings. The pre-series executions of Brandon and Rickard Stark, Ned's father and brother, by King Aerys Targaryen, along with the apparent kidnapping of his sister Lyanna by Prince Rhaegar, are the immediate triggers for Robert's Rebellion. The uprising ends with the death of Mad King Aerys, which results in Robert becoming king and marrying Cersei and Viserys and Daenerys fleeing into exile. Fifteen years later, these events result in the plot of A Game of Thrones. Robert's Rebellion also resulted in the death of Rhaegar, which made Cersei hate Robert throughout the duration of their marriage (as she loved Rhaegar). Seeking solace, Cersei deepened her incestuous relationship with Jaime and gave birth to their three children. This ended up sowing the seeds for three major catalysts for the War of the Five Kings: the Dark Secret about the children's legitimacy would be manipulated by Petyr Baelish to bring Ned into conflict with the Lannisters, Cersei's toxic marriage to Robert would result in the latter's death, and the first of those children, Joffrey, would order Ned's execution. The death of Rhaegar's wife, Elia Martell, also ended up causing problems later on. The Martells became extremely vindictive against the Lannisters, as Tywin had implicitly ordered her death (he actually only wanted her children killed, but Gregor Clegane didn't listen). Oberyn volunteers to become Tyrion's champion against Clegane during his trial by combat because he wants to avenge his sister's death. While he dies, he ends up inflicting a mortal blow on Clegane. In A Feast for Crows, it is revealed that Doran Martell has been drafting a plan for years to aid the last of the Targaryens in their reconquest of Westeros, hoping to watch the Lannisters fall. King Viserys I's death starts the Targaryen civil war known as The Dance of the Dragons in Archmaester Gyldayn's Histories. The first book of Tales of Dunk and Egg, "The Hedge Knight", starts in similar fashion to A Knight's Tale above; Dunk's master Ser Arlan dies and Dunk decides to take his place in an upcoming tournament where he tangles with the Targaryen royal family.

He is then revived as a powerful undead creature known as a Death Knight. Sun, being the poster board for the church and the one in charge of stopping undead attacks on the city, goes to face him and is unintentionally set up as Roland's killer. The lengths he goes to in order to obtain evidence to prove his innocence and to expose the real murderer cause him to learn revival magic to bribe/threaten his fellow knights into secrecy, which causes another church to interfere in the next book. Had he not met the head of that church, he wouldn't have been called in to help in book 3, etc.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_9e2f90f4	comment	In One Piece, the public execution of Pirate King Gold Roger, at which he made his Final Speech about his treasure (the titular One Piece), launches the Golden Age of Piracy. This is the setting of the story; nearly every pirate, including the protagonists, are searching for the treasure and with it the right to call themselves the new Pirate King. His Friendly Enemy Whitebeard similarly launched a new era of piracy with his own death, with his own last words confirming One Piece is real where doubt had begun setting in. The death of Corazon (aka Donquixote Rocinante, Donquixote Doflamingo's younger brother and Trafalgar Law's idol) is the primary driving force of the Pirate Alliance Saga. His death earned Doflamingo Law's hatred, causing him to spend the next thirteen years of his life plotting revenge. If Corazon had never died, it's highly doubtful Law would've been a pirate, let alone one of Luffy's allies. Seeing as the Dressrosa arc involved practically every major power in the world, you could easily argue that his death is an integral part of how the new era of piracy will be shaped — which is ironic considering that Corazon was a Marine spy sent to infiltrate his brother's pirate crew.

She was basically the glue that helped the villagers remember the importance of said community and without her, it's very noticeable how her passing has a large effect on the town as a whole. It's also basically the catalyst for what the rest of her family members do to drive the plot going forward, that being Flint going crazy from grief and neglecting Lucas, Claus going off on his own to avenge his Mother then getting captured and robotized as the leader of Porky's army, and Lucas learning to cope with his mother's death and fight against the pigmasks that indirectly killed her to save his home.

Decades later, Masumi is the patriarch of his own branch of the Tojo Clan, and has a disabled son, Masato. Second, when Masato gets into a fight with and kills Chikao Suzumori, a mook from a rival yakuza family, it leads to Masumi's protector, protagonist Ichiban Kasuga, taking the heat and going to jail. When Ichiban's released, his quest to uncover what's happened to the Arakawa family while he was away, such as why Masumi's now working for the Omi Alliance, drives most of the plot.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_b5a2b326	comment	The main plot of The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind is kicked off some 4000 years prior to the time the game takes place with the death of Lord Indoril Nerevar. His death, the subsequent events of Dagoth Ur and the Tribunal using the Heart of Lorkhan to obtain divinity, and his prophesied Reincarnation are the driving force behind the game's plot.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_b7b5e290	comment	This trope appears several times in the Deryni series: In Deryni Rising, the death of King Brion Haldane in the first chapter begins the multi-volume saga of King Kelson Haldane's rule as well as the specific challenges of getting him safely crowned king. In Camber of Culdi, the murder of a corrupt Deryni nobleman by anti-Deryni revolutionaries drives King Imre Festil to take hostages. If the murderers aren't found, the hostages will be executed. This starts a series of events that lead to Camber MacRorie's own rebellion against Imre and the restoration of the Haldane line to the throne of Gwynedd. In The Bishop's Heir, the Mearan Pretender has been plotting to revolt against Gwynedd for years. However, the immediate trigger for her rebellion is the death of Bishop Carsten of Meara, because her plan involves making one of her supporters the new bishop.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_b962c879	comment	Fairy Tail: Almost every single major event in the story is the result of the death of one person. That person is the main protagonist himself, Natsu Dragneel. Four hundred years before the current storyline, a young Natsu died in a dragon attack with his parents. His older brother Zeref, desperate to revive him, immersed himself in the study of forbidden and taboo magic. He was cursed for his willingness to bypass the boundary between the living and the dead by the Jerkass God Ankhselam, and would come to be known as the strongest and most evil mage in history. Zeref would create several demons to kill him that would later wreak havoc on the world (such as Deloria, who would kill Gray's parents and his mentor Ur), and many antagonists throughout the series are dark wizards who (mistakenly) seek to revive/summon him in hopes of attaining his power. Ironically, it seems the only thing Zeref was not responsible for in some way was Acnologia — many in the series are convinced that he turned Acnologia into a dragon, but in reality, Acnologia's transformation was a consequence of Dragon Slaying magic, which was created by Irene Belserion. In fact, some of the major events for which Zeref is responsible were the result of his plan to stop Acnologia. The death of Fairy Tail's first guild master, Mavis Vermillion, has a significant impact on the plot, though minor in comparison to the above example. Especially considering the fact that Mavis is technically still alive as an Astral Projection. Precht/Hades, in his attempts to revive her, turned her body into the eternal magic "Fairy Heart", a.k.a. Lumen Histoire. His failure to achieve his original goal is implied to what have driven him to villainy and create the dark guild Grimoire Heart. Ivan Dreyar is implied to have tried to use Fairy Heart for his own ends, which led to him being expelled from the guild, and spread the information around, eventually attracting the attention of the Alvarez Empire. Finally, there is Zeref, her "killer", who was in love with her. Losing Mavis the way he did, after he allowed himself to believe there was someone out there he could care for and be happy with, was his true Start of Darkness and led to him becoming the evil wizard the rest of the world feared so much.

Sera was communing with Bhrama when she saw O'Brien's death, which angered Bhrama to the point of destroying the world. The Demon Virus? Sheffield was killed because he turned into a demon and went berserk. As one of the first people to ever transform, the Karma Society extracted the virus from him (and Meganada). Heat's sudden betrayal of the party? The Karma Society showed him the circumstances of O'Brien's death.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_bf09bf33	comment	Arrowverse Arrow: Every single instance somehow stems from the first entry, Rebecca Merlyn, and caused a season's worth of problems. Seasons 1, 3, and 5 can be chained together, while Season 2 is only connected to Season 1. The only season that wasn't the result of a death, from either Oliver's five years away from home or previous seasons, was Season 4. The death of Rebecca Merlyn twenty-one years before the start of the series is the very impetus for the entire show. If she hadn't died, then her husband Malcolm Merlyn wouldn't have gone insane in trying to avenge her death with the Undertaking and try to kill his best friend Robert in order to stop him from trying to prevent it, resulting in Oliver Queen being stranded on Lian Yu for five years and becoming the Arrow. Shado's death on the island is what prompts the events of Season 2. Slade Wilson, who loved her, is driven insane by the Mirakuru, and Oliver's role in her death twists his mind and causes him to direct his rage at Oliver, his friends, his family, and ultimately Star(ling) City as a whole. The death of Sara Lance causes the events of Season 3. Malcolm Merlyn brainwashes his daughter Thea into killing her, forcing Oliver to take the blame and in turn, pique Ra's al Ghul's interest. Sara was later revived at the beginning of Season 4. Ra's al Ghul's death is the trigger for Season 5, as his daughter Talia al Ghul was so enraged by it that she trained Big Bad Prometheus to help her take revenge on Oliver. The Flash (2014) The murder of Nora Allen fourteen years prior to the start of the series drives most of the plot of Season 1, as her son Barry's main goal is to solve it so he can get his father Henry, who was wrongly convicted for her death, out of prison. Henry Allen's own death towards the end of Season 2 breaks Barry enough to create the alternate timeline Flashpoint, the consequences of which drive most of the plot of Season 3. Iris West's premature death at the end of Season 3, as foretold in the midseason finale, was a result of Flashpoint, and also serves to get the plot going. More specifically, it acts as the lynchpin for a Stable Time Loop that ensures the existence of Big Bad Savitar. When her death is prevented in the season finale, the loop breaks and Savitar only has a few hours left before the paradox catches up to him and he ceases to exist. Legends of Tomorrow: Rip initially gathers the Legends in order to prevent the deaths of his wife and son at the hands of Vandal Savage. Eddie Thawne's death in the Season 1 finale of The Flash is the indirect cause of Season 2, as it turned his descendant Eobard Thawne into a time remnant and thus a target for the Black Flash, forcing him to create the Legion of Doom to search for the Spear of Destiny, or face certain non-existence.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_c4a1d59e	comment	Call of Duty: President Al-Fulani's execution in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is a downplayed instance, as it only sparks the American side of the campaign, which is noticeably shorter and more self-contained than the British side and is over and done with before the halfway point. However, his death, combined with the deaths of 30,000 Marines in the ensuing events and the apathetic response from the rest of the world to those deaths, are what motivates the Big Bad of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Call of Duty: Black Ops is more or less kicked off by Dimitri Petrenko's death late in 1945, which is the motivation for Viktor Reznov to plot his revenge for almost twenty years. Interestingly, the way he's able to put the scheme into motion is thanks in part to another one, the death of a body-double of Fidel Castro, which ultimately leads to Alex Mason being captured and sent to the same gulag as Reznov. Will Irons dying is what sparked Jonathan Irons, CEO of Atlas Corporation, to become involved in the story of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (although given the fact that Irons is sitting at the helm of the world's largest standing military and dislikes government militaries even prior to the game, things may have happened with or without Will's death).

Kaname is killed in front of Reika's eyes, which causes the Holly to enter her eyes and not only force her to replay her lover's death in front of her eyes until she's appeased, but also released the Rift into the temple, killing hundreds, and pull people into the Manor of Sleep. Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water: The Maidens of the Black Water were brutally killed, which was psychically and emotionally felt by Ouse. Their death and regret, along with her own desire to live with Kunihiko Asou instead of simply dying with him, caused her ritual to fail and doom Mt Hikami.

Interestingly, the way he's able to put the scheme into motion is thanks in part to another one, the death of a body-double of Fidel Castro, which ultimately leads to Alex Mason being captured and sent to the same gulag as Reznov.

Gregory's death was also the distant catalyst for Misty Fey's disappearance (which in turn had several repercussions on the Fey clan, such as Dahlia and Iris's father leaving, Mia's Promotion to Parent, Yanni Yogi's Obfuscating Stupidity, etc.). In fact, a lot of deaths in this series have kicked off new arcs and plots (Mia Fey, Magnifi Gramarye, etc.). This makes sense in a world where it's Always Murder.

It's shown that Riza took a bullet for Roy during the war. Her sacrificing herself and dying in his arms traumatized Roy, which set in motion the plot and ultimately led to Roy losing his arm.

That they allegedly (it was never officially confirmed to be a murder at all, much less by the Zabis) caused Zeon's death so they could take power is what sets in motion Char's character arc.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_f1bed52	comment	Hello! Sandybell: Leslie. He raised Sandybell as his own child until he was diagnosed with a fatal illness. Feeling like she deserved to know the truth, he confessed to Sandybell that she wasn't of his blood and he had found her in a shipwreck when she was a baby. Before he died, he managed to give Sandybell the daffodil earring found at the scene of the wreck. The rest of the anime is about Sandybell searching for her long-lost mother. Mark's mother, the Countess of Wellington, dies in a car accident (some speculate it wasn't a car accident, but an act of suicide since the Wellingtons have become Impoverished Patricians in spite of their Blue Blood). Full of grief, Mark runs away from home (abandoning his Arranged Marriage to Kitty, which was a last-ditch attempt by the Wellingtons to salvage the family name) and tries to pursue his dream of being a great painter.

Plot-Triggering Death / int_f4984494	comment	Both of the first two games in the Detectives United series have one of these, as the Big Bad of each game has a Freudian Excuse for what he's doing. The wife and children of the first game's villain were murdered by criminals; the wife and son of the second game's villain were killed in a terrible car accident. In both cases, the Big Bad is a good man who has been driven to evil extremes to try to revive his family. Fortunately, in this universe, the rule of Stable Time Loop does not apply and the heroes are able to make it so that neither of these events ever happened, thereby averting the present-day tragedies that resulted.

The Titanic disaster also claimed the life of Charles Hays, president of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. Early in Series 3, the Railway is declared bankrupt because Hays' successors weren't as good as him, taking most of the Crawleys' money with it. The death of Sybil's friend Tom Bellasis in season 2 motivates her to become a nurse. Lavinia's father died in season 3 leaving his fortune to Matthew.
