Reforged into a Minion	comment	So, you are a powerful villain in need of a Quirky Miniboss Squad. You need to replace The Dragon who has failed you one time too many. Or perhaps your Monster of the Week never works and you are thinking of trying The Psycho Rangers. But where can you find a servant both competent enough and willing to serve you? Not everyone can create minions from the ground up, particularly the forces of evil. But perhaps you don't need to create anything. See that guy, Not Quite Dead after a Heroic Sacrifice? He will do. A quick brainwashing, sometimes also a new name and new clothes, and while you are putting his damaged body back together, you can always make a few... improvements. If no half-dead hero is available, you can always use the remains of the previous season's Big Bad, or even some of your past victims. What is important is that they are not just Brainwashed and Crazy. The new minion must be customized for your needs. So turning dead heroes undead does not count by itself, but creating a Death Knight will. May coincide with That Man Is Dead and obviously We Can Rebuild Him. Sometimes involves a Deal with the Devil. Evil Costume Switch is pretty much mandatory. As mentioned, this trope requires the victim to be custom-modified. Also it must be someone either important (a powerful wizard, a king) or plot-relevant (the hero's childhood friend) prior to the transformation and important for the villain's plans after. This can be effective as it puts the former hero's strength on your side, and also puts the other heroes in the uncomfortable position of having to fight their former friend. On the other hand, heroes do have the nasty habit of beating them back to themselves, so in the worst case, the villain may just end up bringing back a hero the villain spent so much time and resources killing in the first place, only stronger. Whoops! Compare The Corrupter and Minion Manipulated into Villainy. If the subject has Heroic Willpower, may result in a Phlebotinum Rebel. A type of Faceâ€“Monster Turn. Can result in a Monster from Beyond the Veil. Not to be confused with Degraded Boss, where a boss enemy becomes a regular mook.

If killed, their spirits are very grateful no longer to be trapped helplessly in their own bodies.

One recurring boss in the first game, Nelo Angelo, is Dante's brother Vergil after being defeated by Mundus at the end of the third game and bonded to his armor. The concept makes a return in the fifth game with the Scudo and Proto Angelos, prototypes of Nelo Angelo, likely also created from helpless human victims. One of the bosses, Cavaliere Angelo, is a more advanced Angelo that uses Trish as its host.

Reforged into a Minion / int_1b021fcb	comment	Tokyo Ghoul: One of the Sequel Hooks involves Aogiri's plans to do this, using captured Ghoul Investigators for use in hybridization experiments. These plans come to fruition two years later, when Seidou Takizawa makes their very bloody debut as Aogiri's new Owl. Formerly the Plucky Comic Relief for the human-focused chapters, he performed a Heroic Sacrifice trying to protect Amon and was written off as killed in action by his superiors. Driven insane by experimentation and torture, he turns out to be completely aware of his past and hints at a feeling of resentment over being abandoned by his superiors. His inferiority complex has been used to twist him into a vicious killer, encouraging him to seek out and try to kill Sasaki to prove himself superior to his predecessor. More importantly, this gets strangely subverted, since Sasaki himself is technically Kaneki who suffers from amnesia. Well, if that's subverted or not depends on the viewer, since the CCG can be seen as the Big Good as well as the Big Bad. Somehow.

The Taken King wields the power of Taking, which snatches people away to... somewhere else... and spits them back out as Living Shadows with "physically illegal" abilities, which they'll turn against their former friends and allies without hesitation by the will of the Taken King. Slave Mook, dutiful general, robotic appendage of a Hive Mind, or Sufficiently Advanced Alien, it doesn't matter — being Taken alters you on the ontological level, and as such can't be resisted or reversed (aside from a handful of special cases, at great effort). Eerily, the process doesn't seem traumatic to the victim: the power they receive is tailored to counter their deepest fears, and their undercranked shuddering is of ecstasy.

Reforged into a Minion / int_2f203125	comment	Shin Megami Tensei games have this, both as a typical example and as a Rare Heroic example. As a general rule, once you've slain a boss or midboss, regardless of its previous allegiance or alignment, you can summon it as a new minion at the right level. As an example, in Nocturne, you can slay Metatron, the Voice of God... and force it into your service against God's representative in the Vortex World. Another good example is Futomimi, the Manikins' seer. Instead of reviving him as a Manikin, he returns as a demon. As an added bonus, with careful tinkering, you can slap any moves you want on them. The first two games have some mechanical limitations, however; the protagonist can fuse any demon as long as they have a high enough level, but the alignment system prevents lawful protagonists from summoning chaotic demons and vice versa. All bets are off on the Neutral alignment, however; Neutral protagonists can summon any demon. Poor Flynn. In Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse, there exists a route where the protagonist Nanashi has to kill him because the Big Bad is possessing his body. Fair enough. But after killing him, your only remaining ally resurrects him as a mindless puppet devoted to only Nanashi. If that's not bad enough, it's possible (but not mandatory, due to the game mechanics) to use him to slaughter the people of Tokyo, whom he vowed to protect. Defied, but eventually double subverted in Shin Megami Tensei V, regarding Michael and Belial. On the Law route, Archangel Michael asks the protagonist to slay Belial and promises to join in return, and vice versa on the Chaos route. Right before the protagonist can deal the final blow, an ally of the targeted demon intervenes, urging them to run so that their power does not fall into the protagonist's hands. Although, one can pursue the other route in a New Game Plus.

Notably, though, Obito wasn't Brainwashed — at most, Madara had him under More than Mind Control after a Despair Event Horizon caused him to undergo a Faceâ€“Heel Turn, and even then, Obito basically decided to hijack Madara's plan for his own use with no intentions of resurrecting him. Even when Madara gets revived through other means, Obito makes no secret that they simply have mutual goals at this point. This is the true power of the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Humans trapped in the illusion and cocooned to the God Tree are very slowly drained of their chakra and will power until they become shells of their former selves, turning them into an army of White Zetsu soldiers for Kaguya Otsutsuki to command in her fight against her own clan.

In retaliation for foiling their operations, Shadaloo kidnapped and robotized her for the sake of transforming her into M. Bison's top assassin. Unlike Shadow — a brainwashed Charlie Nash who escaped shortly after being transformed — Shadaloo added a Restraining Bolt to Shadow Lady's programming so she would remain fully loyal to them as an emotionless minion while obliterating her cheerful personality. In her ending however, Shadow Lady overcomes Shadaloo's brainwashing, regain her original memories as Chun-Li, and join forces with Shadow in taking down Shadaloo.

Some Shapers try to do this to Tahiri (though their primary goal was brainwashing her into believing she was Yuuzhan Vong herself, they also intended to make physical modifications to bring her closer to a Vong physical appearance). Unfortunately for them, Tahiri was rescued, and the head Shaper was killed before the process was complete. Unfortunately for Tahiri, there were lingering effects.

Reforged into a Minion / int_4c095a1f	comment	The Transformers: Galvatron is a literal example. Interestingly, the reforging completely failed to make him loyal, or even more evil; all it did was change his appearance and abilities, and make him significantly more Ax-Crazy. The Big Bad had to resort to repeated psychic torture to get anything resembling obedience. Two scientists who hate all Transformers due to an attack from the Decepticons leaving one's daughter crippled attempt to do this when they recover the body of Optimus Prime, by keeping him powered by some experimental spores containing a Hate Plague that would leave him insane and murderous. When their attempt to repair him fails, they decide to do the next best thing and lure the Autobots to their lab to recover his body, so they can expose them to the spores directly.

It's implied that he also turned Batman's allies and members of the Society into cybernetic minions in his arcade ending. Gorilla Grodd does a similar thing in his Arcade ending, where he betrays Brainiac and uses his technology to not only enhance his telekinetic powers, but also turn Batman and his allies into brainwashed cyborgs just like Superman did in his ending. In Darkseid's Arcade ending, not only does the tyrannical Lord of Apokolips kill Superman to avenge the death of his son Kalibak, he also turns Supergirl into a brainwashed Female Fury, complete with Evil Costume Switch that is very similar to the one she wore in Superman/Batman: Apocalypse during her stint as Darkseid's minion.

Since Wesker has some degree of respect for his former S.T.A.R.S. subordinates, he had a body-controlling cybernetic implant grafted onto her. In Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, playable character Four-Eyes has the ability to do this with her arsenal of weaponized Umbrella medical tech. She can transform enemy zombies into allied Crimson Heads, "reprogram" B.O.W enemies to fight on her side, and her "Brutal Kill" mechanic transforms the victim into an allied Crimson Head zombie. In Resident Evil 3 (Remake), the Nemesis has an ability that invokes a combination of this trope and Mook Maker, being able to infect common zombies with parasites that turn them into more dangerous threats.

In particular, Cyrax was quite unhappy with being forced to become a Cyber Ninja, thinking that being a machine meant he would lose his soul. While Sub-Zero also got converted, a way to reverse the process was found.

This naturally resulted in him being trapped in there with the evil badly wounded from fighting off an army alone, which then took his unconscious body and reforged him into Koragg/Wolzard, their new Black Knight dragon. Yes, becoming a Black Knight qualifies as being reforged, it's a transformation rather than a suit of armor, and he stayed in that form the full twenty years until the spell was broken.

Reforged into a Minion / int_a1117942	comment	In Tekkaman Blade, every Tekkaman is an example. The Radam captured a bunch of explorers and subjected them to a harrowing procedure that infused them with awesome superpowers and a parasite controlling their thoughts. Takaya, who is D-Boy's father, used the last of his strength to free Takaya and interrupted the process. As a result, Takaya had the superpowers of a Tekkaman but lacked the mind controlling parasite, but at the cost of going berserk if he stayed transformed too long, possibly because the process was interrupted prematurely.

Reforged into a Minion / int_aacd24cb	comment	StarCraft: The Zerg Swarm uses a hyper-evolutionary virus to convert terrans into new soldiers for their war against the Protoss. Several of their leaders were also created this way, with their infestation meant to let them retain a greater degree of free will than the usual shambling zombie that results of a typical infested terran. Kerrigan was captured by the Zerg after she was abandoned on Tarsonis. The Overmind, desiring a new leader that would replace him and free the Swarm from Amon's control, infested her and turned her into the Person of Mass Destruction known as the Queen of Blades. Alexei Stukov was infested when a surviving cerebrate acquired his body after he was killed by a shapeshifter and given a Burial in Space. The cerebrate intended to have him lead the remnants of its brood in its stead as cerebrates cannot survive for long without the Overmind, which ends up being for naught as Raynor deinfested him with an experimental cure, and the brood remnants were purified by Artanis' fleet. He later returns in Heart of the Swarm as an independent entity leading the infested terrans of Kerrigan's Swarm. Izsha, the Mission Control of StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm, was originally a terran medic named Amanda Haley before she was infested as part of Kerrigan's experiment to create more intelligent infested terrans. Her transformation is depicted in the short story "Hybrid".

For example, Cyclops Mask kidnapped and mind-controlled children into serving the Black Cross Army. Another example is Tiger Mask from the penultimate episode, who was made from the corpse of one of Peggy's friends who died in the first episode. Battle Fever J had one episode where a friend of Battle Cossack II is secretly dying of cancer and is so terrified of dying that he agrees to be turned into an Egos monster. He is turned into a combination of a vampire and Mister Hyde who also can change into an alien lizard monster and his new evil personality causes him to murder several people before Battle Fever puts him down. In the final episode, Satan Egos planned to do this to Battle Fever by luring them into his base and having the monster making capsule swallow and melt them down to create an unstoppable monster, but they are able to find the capsule's weak spot and destroy it from the inside. Choudenshi Bioman had a two-part story where a Badass Normal man who wanted to become the Sixth Ranger of Bioman but was rejected when he tested negative for bio particles is tricked by the villains into becoming a test subject for their experiment in making their own evil rangers. Immediately after being transformed, he gets mind controlled and forced to attack the Biomen and is only freed after his powers are destroyed. Gekisou Sentai Carranger and Power Rangers Turbo both had an episode where the Monster of the Week turned out to be a hero who had the unfortunate fate of being captured by the villains and brainwashed into being their dishwasher. He tragically dies in the Japanese version but was spared in the American version. In Power Rangers Mystic Force and Mahou Sentai Magiranger, Leanbow/Isamu was The Hero of the Great Offscreen War twenty years prior, who stayed behind to make sure that the seal on the evil can worked. This naturally resulted in him being trapped in there with the evil badly wounded from fighting off an army alone, which then took his unconscious body and reforged him into Koragg/Wolzard, their new Black Knight dragon. Yes, becoming a Black Knight qualifies as being reforged, it's a transformation rather than a suit of armor, and he stayed in that form the full twenty years until the spell was broken. In Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, Joe learns that Walz Gil's bodyguard Barizorg is actually his old friend Sid, whom he thought had sacrificed himself to help him escape, but was actually rebuilt into a cyborg and brainwashed.

During the attack on Xyrus Academy, he ends up being captured by the servants of the Vritra and is taken with them back to Alacrya. Naturally, when he returns to Dicathen years later at the close of the war as one of the Alacryan Scythes, Arthur assumes he had been brainwashed by the Vritra. It turns out that "Elijah Knight" was in fact a false personality created to help him blend in Dicathian society, and that the Alacryans merely restored his true identity: Nico Sever, the former childhood friend of Arthur's past life King Grey, who has been willingly working with Agrona and the Vritra out of a desire to exact revenge on Grey for the murder of his fiancÃ©e Cecilia. Played straight with Tessia Eralith. After the war's conclusion and Arthur's apparent disappearance, she goes on a secret mission back to her homeland of Elenoir only to be captured by the Vritra and turned into the vessel for an entity known as the Legacy, who as it turns out is Cecilia. Cecilia herself is also an example, as Agrona gave her False Memories both to make her more compliant with his plans and to make her more hostile towards Arthur/Grey.

He attracted the attention of the Steel Inquisitors, who, owing to how good Marsh's impersonation was, had Marsh forcibly converted into an Inquisitor himself, a stomach-churning procedure Marsh certainly did not sign up for. However, the Inquisitors were not aware that Marsh was a spy, and he was able to retain his personality despite the mind-altering effects of the transformation and betrayed the Inquisitors at a crucial moment, killing their leader Kar and several other high-ups and leading directly to the overthrow of their boss, the Lord Ruler. Unfortunately, the dark god Ruin — ultimate source of the magic that powered the Inquisitors and whom the Lord Ruler had been holding at bay — now gained greater power to affect the world, so he possessed Marsh and made him into The Dragon. So poor Marsh ended up a minion after all, even if it didn't quite work out the way that those who reforged him wanted it to.

Unfortunately for Cherubimon, the human he snatched turned out to be Kouichi, one of the heroes' long-lost brother, and that lingering connection keeps him from killing the heroes long enough for them to orchestrate a Heelâ€“Face Turn.

Some Shapers try to do this to Tahiri (though their primary goal was brainwashing her into believing she was Yuuzhan Vong herself, they also intended to make physical modifications to bring her closer to a Vong physical appearance). Unfortunately for them, Tahiri was rescued, and the head Shaper was killed before the process was complete. Unfortunately for Tahiri, there were lingering effects. Dark Lordâ€”The Rise of Darth Vader: After Darth Vader's physical Emergency Transformation is complete, the story focuses on Darth Sidious' attempt to restore Vader's confidence in himself and fully indoctrinate him into the Dark Side.

Reforged into a Minion / int_f4abd380	comment	BlazBlue: Mu-12's origin. More specifically, she's Noel Vermillion.note Who it turns out was an Artificial Human who was created for the purpose. There are roughly 10 identical copies of her (who were "failures"), plus Lambda-11 and Nu-13, who were successfully completed. Terumi/Hazama mind raped her into nihilism, finished the process of turning her into a cyborg killing machine and sicced her on Ragna. All just as a brief distraction so he could kill a god. This far from the only time Relius and Hazama invoke this trope, either; The ending of the second game also implies that Hazama and Relious Clover did this to Ragna and Jin's apparently dead little sister Saya to use as some sort of pupper ruler/vessel for a higher power. The Extended edition also all but says that Hazama's minion "Phantom" is Konoe A. Mercury a.k.a. Nine, one of the six heroes. In "Phase 1", the protagonist Kazuma Kval merges with Terumi (essentially just being a physical body for him) to create Hazama. In BlazBlue: Chronophantasma, Izanami the Goddess of Death using Saya as a vessel does this to Ragna, making him her slave.

Reforged into a Minion / int_fa738078	comment	Sailor Moon: The Shitennou were Endymion's Generals before everyone was sent into the future to be reborn and fight Queen Beryl in the future. Present day however, they've been brainwashed and now serve her as the Quirky Mini Boss Squad. She does this to Tuxedo Mask himself, having Kunzite kidnap him as Sailor Moon is revealed to be Princess Serenity. The irony being, just as she remembers her love for TM and his for her, he is kidnapped, brainwashed, and turned against her. It's also the main shtick of Kunzite in the anime version: turning civilians into Monsters of the Week to try and find the secret identities of the Sailor Soldiers, once doing this to Sailor Venus' best friend from London. Quite ironic, considering he's one of the Shitennou (who in the anime don't appear to have the same backstory as in the manga)... That's the origin of the Phages, the Monsters of the Week of the fifth season: as a side effect of having their Starseed extracted, people with a fake Starseed (that is, everyone but the Sailor Soldiers) become a phage. In the manga, the Daimons of the Death Busters are civilians (or, sometimes, cats and dogs) who had their souls removed and replaced with beings from the Tau Star System, transforming them into monsters at random times. Note that this is when the process fails: successful Daimons keep a human appearance. While the anime used objects as the vessels of the Daimons, we still have two similar examples: Germatoid uses professor Tomoe as host in the anime before leaving him near the end of the season (where in the manga Germatoid was Tomoe after becoming a Daimon), while a Daimon in Sailor Uranus' and Neptune's flashback was a kid who assumed the form of a failed Daimon. In the Stars arc of the manga (and the Sera Myu musical Le Mouvement Final), Galaxia disintegrates Tuxedo Mask and the Inner Senshi (except Saturn), then brings them back as puppets to fight Sailors Moon, Chibi Moon, Saturn, and Chibi Chibi.

Reforged into a Minion / int_fb9c177d	comment	Transformers: The Transformers: Galvatron is a literal example. Interestingly, the reforging completely failed to make him loyal, or even more evil; all it did was change his appearance and abilities, and make him significantly more Ax-Crazy. The Big Bad had to resort to repeated psychic torture to get anything resembling obedience. Two scientists who hate all Transformers due to an attack from the Decepticons leaving one's daughter crippled attempt to do this when they recover the body of Optimus Prime, by keeping him powered by some experimental spores containing a Hate Plague that would leave him insane and murderous. When their attempt to repair him fails, they decide to do the next best thing and lure the Autobots to their lab to recover his body, so they can expose them to the spores directly. Beast Wars: The Vok pull this by capturing Tigertron and Airrazor and merging them into a new overwhelmingly powerful machine called Tigerhawk. At first, he's controlled directly by a pair of Vok, but after they're drawn out of his body, the fused Spark of his two former selves takes over the body. Beast Machines: Megatron has turned tons of garden-variety transformers into mindless mooks, and two out of the three members of his Quirky Miniboss Squad are team members of Optimus Primal's Maximals who have been reforged into new bodies with new personalities.
