Retired Monster	comment	The Retired Monster's past is full of evil and atrocity and he's okay with it. In fact, he caused most of it. When you first see him, he'll come across as Affably Evil at best; he'll also have experience and advice that he might give out to a young hero, although possibly the best he can do is "You should stay away from people like me". However, he'll be creepier than the Cool Old Guy or Retired Badass, and he'll tempt the young ones, giving them advice more on the cynical side of the Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism. You see, he's not doing any gross evil acts now â€” he may not have done so much as run a red light in the past ten years â€” but that's only because he's tired. As the backstory of this character becomes known, we learn that they kicked the dog a number of times, perhaps took a hopscotch over the Moral Event Horizon, only stopping because for some reason they got sick of it. Perhaps he finally came out worse for wear after a run-in with the guy who's now The Mentor. Maybe he was caught and sent into exile and now has at least enough fear of the authorities to not put a toe out of line. Then again, often, they have just literally retired, saying "I'm too old for this" and using their pension fund of Nazi Gold to support a life of margaritas on the beach. They've never apologized (not sincerely at least) for their actions, there was no Heelâ€“Face Turn, and they are not The Atoner who'll help to make up for some wrong. No, they'll just sit back, but if a character underestimates their evil, if they think that because they aren't as bad as the more active monsters, that they're OK, they may get a horrid reminder of what the Retired Monster is still capable of. Usually, they'll either be a mentor to the villain they're Passing the Torch to, or even a Token Evil Teammate if they are helping the hero. It's not rare for this kind of character to produce copycat villains, either out of genuine admiration or because said villains are trying to throw the authorities off track by blaming the Retired Monster for their crimes. Usually, the Retired Monster is less than amused about this, and he will go straight back into action to either dispose of these guys personally or to help the heroes in apprehending them, as a way to "clean" his name of crimes he didn't commit. In any case, he has bucket-loads of Villain Cred. Monsters who don't retire, or come out of retirement and continue to be evil in old age, can become Evil Old Folks. Sub-Trope of Karma Houdini, due to the fact that very few of this type of character are found in jail. Compare the Retired Badass, one of several good counterparts, and the Retired Outlaw, which may occasionally overlap. Contrast The Atoner, who said monster can become if he does end up regretting his past crimes later in his retired life. noreallife

After a small stint in jail on relatively petty charges, he got married and went straight. When his family is killed in a suspicious car accident he kidnaps and tortures an undercover police officer to find out if the police were covering up what really happened.

Retired Monster / int_1869a077	comment	Samurai Jack: The title character of "The Tale of X9" fits the trope, being a former robotic assassin and cold-blooded killer. You can't help but feel sorry for him, though, seeing as he retired out of his love for a puppy (and is only capable of feeling love due to an Emotion Chip) and comes out of retirement because said puppy has been kidnapped. Despite his past deeds, the situation makes him a very sympathetic figure among fans, who regard his death at the end one of the saddest moments of the whole series. Aku during season 5. After destroying the last time portal, Aku was content to hide out in his lair until Jack inevitably died of old age. Unfortunately, he discovered that, as a side effect of time travel, Jack was turned into The Ageless, leaving Aku to wallow in despair. He quickly jumps back into action the minute he hears of a chance to kill Jack once and for all.

After the traumatic events of War Of The Spark however, namely Gideon sacrificing his life for hers and burning the last of her bridges with her friends in the Gatewatch, she decides to retire to Strixhaven, as the new professor of Necromancy. Partly out of guilt for everything she did, partly because she's now the most wanted planeswalker in the multiverse and needs to lay low, partly in hopes of finding a spell to resurrect Gideon. She even briefly serves as a mentor to Will and Rowan Kenrith, two young new heroic planeswalkers.

Retired Monster / int_30a5ebfd	comment	Naruto: Madara went into hiding after his defeat by Hashirama. When he took in Obito, he was a one-eyed, decrepit man kept alive only due to a life support system he had jury-rigged from an experiment. He seemed largely uninterested in the outside world and was even helpful. In fact, he had spent the last few decades preparing his big comeback and Obito was just the final piece in his plan. Danzo is suitably monstrous and pretends to be retired from his duties outside of acting as an advisor. Most of the cast knows he's still running Root and tasking them with black-on-black ops. He comes fully out of retirement when he becomes Candidate Hokage, only to have all of the enemies he's made come out of the woodwork when he steps out of Konoha. Orochimaru becomes the Karma Houdini version of this by the end of the manga. While the Leaf Village keeps tabs on him and make sure he doesn't do anything too evil, he is allowed to more or less live in peace and perform (hopefully) non-evil experiments; he even keeps some of his own subordinates and lives in his old lair. Creepily, given his Body Surf tendencies, his physical appearance has changed yet again, leaving it as unclear if he managed to possess yet another person before his enforced retirement or if he used some other method. For a character that murdered numerous children, including BABIES, killed his own master, tried to start a world war by annihilating his hometown, and operated for decades as a Mad Scientist Evil Sorcerer Serial Killer, the fact that he is let off more or less scot-free is pretty amazing.

Retired Monster / int_39e3b5ff	comment	Kill Bill has a trove of these. Esteban Vihaio, Bill's surrogate father. He was a pimp who lead a vicious gang consisting of his whores' children, but he's retired as of the movie. In reference to Bill shooting the Bride years before, he says "I would have just cut your face." Doesn't sound so bad compared to what Bill did, but just then he calls one of his girls over to the table sporting a hideous and disfiguring scar running across her mouth. He hands her a hanky to wipe off some drool, then she fetches him a drink. The man is only semi-retired. (Doesn't stop him from being the nicest gangland pimp you could possibly imagine, though.) Pai Mei, an ancient Kung Fu master with a history of atrocities and bloodshed, who sports an unpleasantly racist and sexist worldview, along with the knowledge that he can do anything to anyone without fear since he is just too tough and skilled to die. Until Elle Driver poisons his fish heads in retaliation for snatching out her eye, that is. Ironically, Bill thinks that he's getting lonely because everybody is too frightened to approach him, and that's why he accepts apprentices he despises, even though it doesn't stop him from abusing them as much as he likes. Even more ironically, despite being a chauvinist who hates Americans, the Bride (an American woman) becomes his best student, and the only one he is willing to teach his most powerful technique to. She even starts to love him like a father, and eventually avenges his death by tearing out Ellie's other eye and leaving her to die in the desert. Most of the Deadly Vipers themselves qualify. Bill had long retired from assassination work by the time Beatrix caught up to him, electing to raise their daughter instead, Vernita quit outright and preferred to try and build a family, and Budd was just living out his days in a trailer and working as a bouncer. Beatrix herself also qualifies, having a change of heart after getting pregnant and wanting to leave the profession and live in El Paso, though Bill would have none of it. The other two members, Elle Driver and O'ren Ishi'i, however, were still active; Driver was still doing professional assassinations and Ishi'i had taken over the Yakuza gangs of Japan.

Retired Monster / int_3b34143f	comment	Harry Potter: After the Evil Sorcerer Voldemort died the first time around, many of his followers (known as Death Eaters) avoided imprisonment by claiming they'd been magically compelled to do his bidding. Law-abiding citizens on the surface, behind closed doors they regretted nothing and still held true to their genocidal hatred of both Muggles and Muggle-born witches and wizards, to the point where some were willing to occasionally put on the old Death Eater robes for the odd bit of Muggle torture like they did at the Quidditch World Cup. One of them, Walden McNair, loved killing so much he became an executioner of dangerous magical beasts for the Ministry of Magic. Unsurprisingly, when Voldemort returned, many of these retired Death Eaters returned to their master's side and had no problem resuming the war where they left off. One such wizard is Lucius Malfoy. By the end of the series, he becomes one of the only known Death Eaters to avoid imprisonment for his crimes a second time, since he defects for the sake of his son Draco before the final battle and rats out his fellow Death Eaters after the war. He's still as prejudiced and unapologetic for his crimes as ever, and Draco's wife made a point of making sure none of Lucius's influence rubbed off on her and Draco's son Scorpius. Igor Karkaroff escaped punishment after the First Wizarding War by informing on other Death Eaters. By the time the Death Eaters regroup, he doesn't return to them because he's quite comfortable as the headmaster of a Wizarding School called Durmstrang (with a campus in a decidedly Uberwaldian bit of Lapland and a reputation for teaching The Dark Arts), and because he squealed on so many of his former allies that he wouldn't last long if he met them again. It's later mentioned offhandedly that the Death Eaters hunted him down and killed him for his betrayal.

But she's coming out of retirement to chase down the journalist who tried to expose her back when she was in school.

Silver has been peacefully running an inn and living happily with his wife for some years when the story begins, and he continues this after making off with a part of the treasure in the end. Billy Bones had also settled down quite comfortably at the "Admiral Benbow" and was quite content to drink and eat away his share of the plunder before his past caught up with him.

While it doesn't seem like he necessarily enjoyed killing, in his youth as a bandit, Munny was a cold-blooded mass murderer â€” killer of women, children, and animals. The events of the movie bring him out of retirement. English Bob could also be considered one of these. While at present, he plays the role of Remittance Man and is a sort of celebrity, it's indicated that he was previously employed killing Chinese laborers for the railroads, and the truth behind his gunfighter exploits is that he was a dishonorable Combat Pragmatist.

Retired Monster / int_43576f5	comment	Season 12 of Supernatural reveals the existence of the Princes of Hell, the first generation of demons created after Lilith, who were meant to act as Hell's generals. Azazel, the Big Bad of the first two seasons, was one of them, but the other three (Ramiel, Asmodeus, and Dagon) view him as having been a fanatic, as they themselves have long since grown disillusioned with Lucifer's war with Heaven. Since then, they've all lived in comfortable retirement. That being said, Ramiel still takes the occasional Virgin Sacrifice, and he mentions that Asmodeus has "hobbies" and Dagon has "toys" (this is never elaborated on...which is probably for the best) so how retired they are is debatable. Asmodeus ultimately comes out of retirement in Season 13, to fill the Evil Power Vacuum in Hell caused by Crowley's death and Lucifer being imprisoned in an Alternate Universe. He's very much a fire and brimstone traditionalist who turns on his former boss after Lucifer has been temporarily depowered.

Although he's a slightly less morally dark character at present because bounty hunters have to take their target alive (and because Jet is rubbing off on him), Spike has mostly abandoned his past rather than face up to it and has no regrets for the things he used to do. True to form, his realization that he does actually have some things left undone in his old life leads him to try and set things right, (possibly) dying in the process.

And he does not hide from the protagonists that this is his plan, or that taking advantage of his powers too much will release him, even though a little bit of deception would have him freed much quicker. And he's quite gung-ho about going off to kill Feinne, his former ally (though Feinne is far too powerful at this stage for them to succeed). And he'll chew you out for even suggesting he's not a bad guy. This gets played with a bit later when we find he was actually Brainwashed and Crazy and while he never reverts back to his original personality (in the Normal route at any rate) he does get enough Character Development to pull off a Heroic Sacrifice against the Big Bad.

He attempted to go straight in his old age but was persuaded by the Joker to join him for One Last Job as a Gleeful and Grumpy Pairing. He then betrays the Joker and tries to kill him to take over Gotham, but Batman stops him which leaves the Joker distraught over having his "greatest prank" ruined. In "Menace of the Conqueror Caveman", Booster Gold recognizes a photo of the millennia-old conqueror/supervillain Kru'll and claims that they had some fights in the 25th century before Booster went back in time. A flashback shows Kru'll, apparently retired from villainy, minding his own business in the museum where Booster works as a janitor, with the two bumping into each other and spilling Kru'll's coffee because Booster is distracted talking on his phone. Kru'll is annoyed, but doesn't attack Booster even after recognizing him as a superhero whom he fought with in the 21st century.

The name of the perk comes from a quote from the aforementioned William Munny. Orion Moreno, one of the refugees from the Enclave's fall in Fallout 2, is this. The other members of the Remnants were either Punch Clock Villains who were only in it for the action or Minions with Fs in Evil who regularly subverted their orders, but Orion was and is a true believer in the Enclave's fascist outlook, he loved the violence of his job, and he's damn proud to have served. However, he's also portrayed as a somewhat tragic figure, being a patriot who saw the nation he loved burned to the ground and to this day is still harassed by the NCR. Marcus was a devout member of the Master's Super Mutant Unity in the first game. After the Master was defeated, he retired to a (mostly) peaceful life of non-violence and has become a major proponent of coexistence between humans, ghouls, and Super Mutants. However, despite being a genuinely moral All-Loving Hero, he has no real remorse for his time in the Unity; he genuinely believes that the Master's plan would've saved the world if it had been carried out, but also knows that it's not really feasible now so there's no point in carrying on old feuds. He notes that he both hates and deeply respects the Player Character of the 1, blaming them for many of the bad things that have happened in years since, but also feeling that if all humans fought for their beliefs the way he did, the Unity wouldn't have been needed.

Bothari is undisputably a sociopath, and when under the command of a sadistic officer, regularly followed orders to rape and torture prisoners. However, following a Sudden Principled Stand, he ends up as a trusted bodyguard/ Psycho Sidekick of Cordelia and Aral Vorkosigan, as Cordelia is able to convince him to believe in an image of himself as an honorable soldier- and he doesn't really feel guilt for his past actions, as he sort of convinces himself that they didn't happen. His lack of true remorse is showcased The Warrior's Apprentice, in an incident where Miles had no choice but to let Bothari perform the Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique on an enemy soldier. Miles notes Bothari's unhealthy eagerness to obey this order, and Bothari proceeds to torture the man (to death, though it wasn't intended) with sadistic glee.

By the time he is found by Thanos and the heroes, he is no longer the same megalomaniac as before, since he lost all ambition and ax-craziness after spending decades guarding it. In fact, he couldn't take the stone even if he wanted to. By the end of the movie, Thanos becomes one after having just committed the single largest mass-murder in existence when he kills half of the entire universe's population with a snap of his fingers. He then retreats to a farm on a remote planet, having fulfilled his life-long mission before (as revealed in Avengers: Endgame) destroying the stones so that they can never be used to undo his own work. The enraged surviving Avengers eventually come for him, and even knowing what he's done...there's something strangely pitable about him.

By the time he is found by Thanos and the heroes, he is no longer the same megalomaniac as before, since he lost all ambition and ax-craziness after spending decades guarding it. In fact, he couldn't take the stone even if he wanted to.

Retired Monster / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: The demon lord Pale Night is an ancient being that many other demon lords claim is their mother (and some claim the current race of demons can trace their bloodline back to). Nowadays, she tends to stay in her palace, distancing herself from the mortals, the Blood War, and other demons... But, may the gods help anyone she catches trespassing on her property. Some she turns into soulless husks whom she keeps as trophies (and guardians) while others she lets go, only to live with the horrors they've seen forever. Another ancient demon who is now retired, but not by her choice, is the Queen of Chaos. In the mythic Age Before Ages eons ago, she ruled the obyrith, the race of demons that first populated the Abyss, and led them on a war of genocide against the Wind Dukes of Aaqa. She was such a monster, she murdered any obyrith who refused to join her forces. Eventually, however, her army was defeated by the Wind Dukes due to the creation of the Rod of Law (later the Rod of Seven Parts), her second-in-command and consort Miska the Wolf Spider was banished to Pandemonium, and the obyrith nearly driven to extinction as a result. Neither the Queen nor the obyrith ever recovered; since then, she has laired in the 14th layer of the Abyss, known as the Steaming Fen, licking her wounds, dreaming of freeing Miska and returning to glory. The baernoloths are the creators of the yugoloth race (until the 4th edition, where the yugoloths were included among demons via retcon) but long ago entrusted leadership of the race to the ultraloths and retreated to the farthest locales of the Grey Waste. The few encounters that mortals have with these ancient fiends have yielded reports of horrid and blasphemous experiments, but fortunately, the baernoloths don't seem to have the great power they are said to have once had. Also, there are the Rabble of Devilkin, powerful unique devils who reside on the first layer of Hell. Technically, they are exiled, not retired, formerly being Dukes of Hell (or in the case of Moloch and Geryon, rulers of whole layers) who were stripped of their position for some reason, but spared death for other reasons. Most are content to simply stay in their lairs and keep to themselves, but a few have made vain attempts to regain their former positions, so much that in such cases, their names have been stripped of them to prevent mortals from summoning them. One notable Rabble is Armaros, a being who is believed to be the most powerful devil in existence and a wizard with godlike magical power. Only Asmodeus himself is allowed to visit him (which he does quite often, possibly for advice) and no one else dares disturb his magical research. A few ancient evil gods match this Trope; legends say they were once powerful gods, but because this cosmology is one where Gods Need Prayer Badly, these gods suffered as their races became weaker and lost their influence on mortal worlds, becoming slothful and neglected due to the lack of worship. (This happens to non-evil gods too sometimes, but not as often, for some reason.) Examples include Ramenos, the frog-god of the bullywugs, Merrshaulk, the god of the yuan-ti (a race that challenged humans for dominance and lost), Laogzed, the deity worshipped by troglodytes (now little more than a giant lizard that other gods think of as a divine garbage disposal), and Gorellik, who used to be the patron deity of gnolls until that position was usurped by the demon lord Yeenoghu, causing him to wander the lower planes, seemingly with no purpose. Jergal of the Forgotten Realms is a literal Retired Monster. He was once a Greater Deity who commanded the portfolios of Murder, Strife, and Death. But over time, he grew weary of his roles. So when a trio of ambitious mortals demanded that he give his power to them, he agreed. And that's how Bane, Bhaal, and Myrkul came to be. Jergal now serves a more humble role as the seneschal to the Lord of the Dead. The Tome of Magic mentions Andras, the Gray Knight. He was once an elven paladin who crusaded for good, only for a series of misfortunes to prompt a Crisis of Faith, driving him to become a blackguard just as vile as the hero he once was. But after three hundred years of service to both good and evil, Andras grew tired of both causes, and in the middle of a pitched battle, he just dropped his sword and quit the field, never to be seen again. Since no afterlife would welcome his soul, Andras was condemned to become a vestige.

This isn't out of a desire to do good, but, in the case of the Earth One and Two Riches, The Cheetah being the result of a "split" personality that emerged from Rich's own insecurities. Both realize they can assert their self worth by applying their talents in legitimate business ventures, but on Earth Two the Cheetah defeats Priscilla, who while now interested has never had a real job, and establishes itself as the "true" Rich, while on Earth One, Priscilla Rich was a successful performer before crime, defeats the Cheetah and returns to her old ways. In the case of Post Crisis Rich, she's simply too old, and the Wonder Woman she REALLY hates has also retired from superhero duty, Hippolyta being Wonder Woman before Diana Prince as a result of the cosmic retcon. Silver Age Rich has to deal with new villain Cobra kidnapping and torturing her niece Debbie Domaine into his own personal Cheetah, with Debbie ending up in an insane asylum, with Post Crisis Rich is killed by a newer, completely unrelated Cheetah named Barbara Anne Minerva, who had been convinced Rich's continued existence was holding her back.

After the Master was defeated, he retired to a (mostly) peaceful life of non-violence and has become a major proponent of coexistence between humans, ghouls, and Super Mutants. However, despite being a genuinely moral All-Loving Hero, he has no real remorse for his time in the Unity; he genuinely believes that the Master's plan would've saved the world if it had been carried out, but also knows that it's not really feasible now so there's no point in carrying on old feuds. He notes that he both hates and deeply respects the Player Character of the 1, blaming them for many of the bad things that have happened in years since, but also feeling that if all humans fought for their beliefs the way he did, the Unity wouldn't have been needed.

Finding himself in a role where he has to use diplomacy and can't solve every problem with brute force, Dow has somewhat mellowed over the years and shows some sympathetic Hidden Depths, although he feels the need to retain his fearsome image in order to retain power. Fittingly, Dow ends up sabotaging himself in a situation where showing mercy would be the wiser, but doing so would hurt his "rep", coupled with the fact that Dow couldn't stop himself from being needlessly cruel.

Retired Monster / int_73d7930f	comment	Star Trek: Deep Space Nine In "Duet", the protagonists meet a Cardassian with a similar background, being the brutal camp commandant of a forced labour camp, brazenly flaunting his guilt... or was he? Turns out he was merely a filing clerk who had assumed his identity, having been driven mad with guilt for all the atrocities committed there. His goal was to be executed as penance for never speaking out against the brutality, and to shine a light unwanted by the Cardassian government on the atrocities committed. Garak is a complicated subversion. He was caught and exiled for an unspecified crime (hinted to be some kind of treason or betrayal of the Obsidian Order) and he has a reputation for being a very dangerous man who shouldn't be trusted. However, as the show progresses, it becomes less clear that this reputation is as cut-and-dried as it first seemed. Eventually, it becomes clear that he's not so much heartless about the past, and he may not easily admit it or apologise for it, but he's carrying at least some guilt about it. His motivation for everything he did in the Order was a bitter and cynical I Did What I Had to Do, and he wasn't above sacrificing his own sense of morality for his job or Shooting the Dog if he had to. He became a part of the Obsidian Order in the first place because his father, Enabran Tain, was trying to mould him into the perfect operative... and he succeeded. However, although Garak has done many morally ambiguous things in his life and was even brought up to enjoy performing Cold-Blooded Torture, he doesn't feel that good about it in retrospect, and it's clear that the main reason he did what he did was his acute loyalty to Cardassia and the belief that he was doing what he had to do for his people. His observation of some of the worst that sentient creatures â€” Cardassian and otherwise â€” are capable of in the murky underworld of covert operations has made him incredibly cynical but also fascinated with the Federation, particularly Julian Bashir, whose compassion and desire to help people is completely alien to him. Although he is incredibly dangerous if you get on his wrong side, his enforced "retirement" and consequent exposure to the Federation has allowed him to learn compassion and to lose his taste for the more unsavoury aspects of his job description. His moral compass has definitely been pulled a certain way since he was exiled, leading him to act more like a Sociopathic Hero than a Retired Monster. The show hints that he's been hiding dissident sympathies. When trapped between obeying the state (killing them) or letting them go free, he acknowledges it's against his better judgement to oppose them and eventually lets them go free. It's not the last time he helps dissidents either, much to the consternation of an old Obsidian Order colleague of his. To Enabran Tain (who exiled him) he is clearly very upset over how things turned out between them (but then, we don't know the circumstances to know why). When he is ordered to torture a captured prisoner (Odo) in "The Die is Cast", he's uncomfortable with the idea but carries it through. He succeeds in torturing himself almost as much as he tortures Odo, begging Odo to give him even the smallest bit of information so he can have an excuse to stop the torture. Afterwards, he apologizes to Odo and from it, an Odd Friendship is born. When he's commissioned by the Federation as a code-breaker in the fight against the Dominion (and therefore Cardassia), he suffers a claustrophobic breakdown which turns out to be as a result of him bottling an immense guilt over the role he's playing in the fight against Cardassians. In "What You Leave Behind", he gives a speech observing how the decimation of Cardassia could be considered payback for the awful actions they've committed against other species during their military expansionist phase. Enabran Tain, Garak's superior and father and the man who ran the Obsidian Order for twenty years, is completely unrepentant of his crimes and killing whomever might be a threat (while Garak seemed to be always looking for excuses to not kill someone, Tain seemed to be looking for excuses to kill). It's his missing the old days which prompts him to actually come out of retirement and forge an alliance with the Tal Shiar to strike at the Dominion preemptively. This doesn't end well.

After being soundly defeated and crippled by current boss of Omega Aria T'loak, he can be found serving as her advisor in Afterlife, clearly broken and longing to return to his bloody glory days, when he was respected and feared. In a sidequest, Shepard has the option of coaxing him out of retirement in a couple of different ways. Mass Effect: Andromeda: The ancient krogan warrior Drack admits that he helped destroy at least one culture back in the day, but he's 1400 years old and is running a bit short on internal organs. He mostly just wants to see krogan society develop into something new before he takes his last nap.

Retired Monster / int_7aba404	comment	Yoon Tae-goo "The Weird" of The Good, The Bad, The Weird turns out to be one of these. Part of the reason Park Do-won, "The Good", is hunting Park Chang-yi, "The Bad" (no relation) is because he believes Chang-yi is this notorious bandit known as the "Finger Chopper". While Chang-yi is a total psycho, it's ultimately revealed that Tae-goo was the Finger Chopper and Chang-yi lost a finger to him. This reveal probably has a lot to do with Tae-goo being an Expy of Tuco of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, right down to the similar names, and in both cases, the seemingly comic relief character has a rap sheet of some seriously awful crimes. The main difference between these two is that in "Weird", Chang-yi is more than just a one-dimensional villain who makes Tae-goo look worse in comparison.

Retired Monster / int_7f5bc680	comment	Fallout: Fallout 3: Jericho used to be a raider, and expresses some interest in taking up the life again, but spends the game just bumming around Megaton like every other NPC... at least until an evil Player Character convinces him to give it another shot. There's also the weapons dealers Flak and Shrapnel in Rivet City, a retired slaver and raider, respectively. Fallout: New Vegas: Level 50 characters with Evil or Very Evil Karma can take the "Ain't Like That Now" perk to restore it to Neutral levels and gain a bunch of bonuses. The name of the perk comes from a quote from the aforementioned William Munny. Orion Moreno, one of the refugees from the Enclave's fall in Fallout 2, is this. The other members of the Remnants were either Punch Clock Villains who were only in it for the action or Minions with Fs in Evil who regularly subverted their orders, but Orion was and is a true believer in the Enclave's fascist outlook, he loved the violence of his job, and he's damn proud to have served. However, he's also portrayed as a somewhat tragic figure, being a patriot who saw the nation he loved burned to the ground and to this day is still harassed by the NCR. Marcus was a devout member of the Master's Super Mutant Unity in the first game. After the Master was defeated, he retired to a (mostly) peaceful life of non-violence and has become a major proponent of coexistence between humans, ghouls, and Super Mutants. However, despite being a genuinely moral All-Loving Hero, he has no real remorse for his time in the Unity; he genuinely believes that the Master's plan would've saved the world if it had been carried out, but also knows that it's not really feasible now so there's no point in carrying on old feuds. He notes that he both hates and deeply respects the Player Character of the 1, blaming them for many of the bad things that have happened in years since, but also feeling that if all humans fought for their beliefs the way he did, the Unity wouldn't have been needed.

Retired Monster / int_8125b468	comment	Oswald Cobblepot â€” AKA "The Penguin" â€” became this in the Batman comics in the 1990s. Somewhere along the way, he decided he enjoyed being wealthy, having lots of famous friends, and being seen in the company of beautiful women more than he enjoyed being a crook â€” so he "officially" retired from crime and opened the Iceberg Lounge, one of Gotham City's most popular casino-nightclubs (and for that matter, he also stopped wearing his top hat). However, the Penguin didn't withdraw from crime entirely: while he never actively gets into mischief, he still runs a gang and has them do all his dirty work. Batman and other Gotham heroes tolerate this because Cobblepot sometimes "overhears" information they need in his nightclub that he's willing to share â€” off the record. So, Villain with Good Publicity meets this trope. During Chip Zdarsky's run on Batman, Penguin takes this even further, faking his death, altering his appearance with cosmetic surgery and leaving Gotham, so that he can leave his self-destructive obsession with fighting Batman behind, instead settling for running a flower shop.

The comic would go on to reveal she was the general of the Middle Army of Vesh during the War, ended up on the winning side, and would have become one of the Seven Black Emperors had she not abandoned her Army and given away her Key to Incubus at some point before the War ended. Maya hasn't so much 'atoned' for her earlier actions as 'gotten drunk and stopped doing that stuff', and it's implied she's hunting Allison so she can somehow get revenge on Incubus for his later actions.

After conquering the setting's epic equivalent of World War II, being a mass-murdering demon soldier wasn't every entertaining or fulfilling anymore. After a while, he got bored, started dating, and switched over to the good guys. Mostly for the challenge. Subverted when he finds an even bigger challenge in defying the devil and making the world a better place; it feels good, and it's even more fun.

He still works as a weapons supplier to any supervillain (and shadier hero) willing to pay. Another Spider-Man foe that fits is Roderick Kingsley aka Hobgoblin (pictured above), who has a tendency to go in and out of retirement from supervillainy for months or years at a time during which he enjoys his ill-gotten gains. Every now and then, he goes back to being Hobgoblin, usually to defend his villain cred.

Examples include: Lorgar, Primarch of the Word Bearers, was the one who instigated the crippling Horus Heresy and turned several Space Marine legions to Chaos worship to begin with. He is currently isolated meditating in his temple on the planet Sicarus, far from any battlefield. That being said, there are rumors that he is leading armies of Word Bearers into battle now. Fulgrim, Primarch of the Emperor's Children, was one of the earliest and most effective leaders of the Heresy who brought his legion to serve the dark god Slaanesh. For his deeds, Slaanesh gifted him an entire planet of unending pleasure named Callax to live it up. Much like Lorgar he has made a bit of a return, but only after his arch-enemy Roboute Guilliman (who he could have sworn he killed millennia ago) came back.

When they make another appearance in Sunset's Backstage Pass, the Dazzlings are performing as singers wherever they can just so they can get by in the human world. The Dazzlings don't feel remorseful for their actions in spite of their drop-in status; they show deep resentment about being trapped in the human world, call their fans "human scum", and insult Sunset Shimmer for being caught in a "Groundhog Day" Loop with a "The Reason You Suck" Speech. It's this speech that makes Sunset have a Heel Realization about how bad of a friend she was being to Pinkie Pie, with Sunset deciding that she Must Make Amends and be nicer to Pinkie. However, the Dazzlings didn't intend for Sunset to do this; they just wanted to rub salt in the wound. This is the Dazzlings' final appearance in the Equestria Girls franchise, and they leave with no indication of becoming better people.

The Brethren Court, who are all pretty badass Pirate Lords in their own right, are scared by his mere appearance at the meeting, even though he immediately slumps down in the corner and absent-mindedly begins playing with a guitar. When one of them suggests not following the Code for the second time, one of his strings snaps and he looks up, terrifying them all into silence. He makes his appearance by shooting another pirate in cold blood, showing that he is only semi-retired, and naturally steals the scene since anyone capable of hitting someone in the chest from that far with a single-shot musket pistol would humble all around him.

He doesn't try to pretend that he has become a better person or that he can escape his past as the monster who almost single-handedly brought the entirety of Greece to ruin, but he does try to at least raise his son Atreus to be better than he was. And if you try to harm a hair on Atreus's head, he will show you exactly why everyone fears him. Downplayed in that he holds virtually nothing BUT remorse for his past actions, and his shame of and reluctance to discuss them is a major factor in his strained relationship with his son. This and the following game lead to gradual subversion, as Kratos slowly becomes a better man, father and god.

After killing the three members of the Girl Posse who got his girlfriend Trish killed, he seems to have settled down into a normal, peaceful life, even growing up to be a high school principal. He was never caught in the original timeline, but there's no indication he ever hurt anyone else once his revenge was complete. It turns out that Pam, who was friends with the victims and was the Final Girl of the original killings, was deliberately spared because she didn't contribute to Trish's death. Her death thirty-five years later is actually the work of a copycat, and Doug is shown trying to console Pam's daughter.

Retired Monster / int_ce50887e	comment	Despite settling down on Earth and attempting to save it on several occasions, Vegeta of Dragon Ball Z has never explicitly been shown to express any guilt, angst, or shame for his decades-long life of murder, tyranny, and genocide. He eventually gets better. During the Buu saga, he makes this speech about how he wanted to go back to the days when he was a cold-hearted, ruthless brute who thought of nothing but causing pain and suffering to others. An episode earlier, when he becomes Majin, he proclaims to the Supreme Kai when he's told to be innocent and clear, "How can you say that! I'm not innocent!" He knows he was an evil monster once and wishes to let that monster inside him loose again. This is because he feels he's gone "soft" and that he could â€” and should â€” be stronger than he is. By returning to the old state of mind, he believes he'd be able to use his full power. There is a bit of a subversion, however, ironically enough, when Porunga was asked to revive all those on earth who aren't pure evil, Vegeta is resurrected. He then appears genuinely stunned at just what that means.

However, as Harry Potter, no such negative acts have been attached to his name, so instead of revealing himself and reclaiming control over his former minions, "Harry" decides to go through Hogwarts until he graduates so he can get a teaching position there. The problem is that the rest of Voldemort's soul isn't retired.

Well, he is this to a point... He most likely still hasn't gotten past how he dishonored Holly Summers by not killing her in battle when she wanted such a fate. Otherwise, he doesn't care to get back into the games until Bishop is killed and Sylvia "convinces" him, perfectly fine with his pathetic lifestyle. It's mainly because killing has become boring to him after killing the best of the best. He does regret killing Charlie's cheerleaders but that and Holly seem to be is only two regrets. He gets a few more moments, such as being enraged at Sylvia for shooting the dog when he wanted an honorable duel with Ryuji, preventing the UAA from tampering with Captain Vladimir's corpse, honoring Margaret's last request to memorize her song, and simply venting his disgust and anguish over the death of Alice, the one Assassin in the game whose predicament best mirrors his own and who desperately sought to escape the UAA. That last one, in fact, marks the biggest milestone in his character progression; from that point on, Travis vows to become a real hero, starting by ending the perpetual bloodshed brought by the UAA and their twisted fights.

She is an unrepentant Proud Warrior Race Girl who sees nothing wrong with any of this, and the only reason she is retired at all is because a Physical God changed the very laws of the universe to create a world where conflicts are settled with games and killing is forbidden. The Big Damn Movie shows her in action in the era before the Ten Pledges, and we get to see her viciously slaughter one of the main characters, Laughing Mad as she does.

In the years'-long era between her killings of Tomoo and his subordinates and her capture by the Diclonius Research Institute, she killed Kouta's sister and father out of a hissy fit of jealousy when Kouta lied to her about his cousin's gender (even if he explicitly told her about his cousin's real gender, someone was bound to be dead, anyway) and caused a series of heart attacks across Kamakura while infecting males with the Diclonius virus. While she does feel guilty (deep down inside) about the murders of Kouta's father and sister and tries to atone for it, when she comes out of retirement (by slaughtering several Diclonius Research Institute personnel), she proves herself that she's still excessively murderous... not that those Research Institute personnel didn't have it coming. Yeah, it's that kinda series, where being locked up in a Tailor-Made Prison that frankly has "Nazi Concentration Camp expy" written all over it is bound to mess one up (more than what she already was). She gets better at the end, via limiting most of her murders to people that actually deserve it. Needless to say, it does not work, but she goes out in a Heroic Sacrifice protecting her loved ones.

Retired Monster / int_f5b9fb2	comment	Caster in Fate/hollow ataraxia. Her only goal during the Holy Grail War was to find a way to live a normal life with her Master and husband Souichirou. She did some horrible things during the War, has lost very little sleep over them, and would do it again without issue if the need arose. Now things have calmed down, she's perfectly peaceful, if a bit possessive. After all, she has everything she wanted anyway, so what need is there to keep causing problems?

Retired Monster / int_f6eed39	comment	How some of the older members of the mob end their careers in The Sopranos - the lucky ones. Then again, Uncle Junior's gradual descent into dementia, eventually rendering him a frail, senile husk of his former self condemned to spend the remainder of his life in a dank state-run facility unable to even recognize his family or recall his own accomplishments is one of the most depressing and haunting plotlines in the show.

Retired Monster / int_fb2991d8	comment	Justified: Wynn Duffy, a ruthless gangster working for the Dixie Mafia, retires from crime after the end of the series and spends his retirement surfing in Fiji. Mags Bennett wanted to become this, leaving the marijuana business and criminal activities to her boys and her surrogate daughter while retiring to the countryside to spend it with her grandkids and not regretting her life of crime. In the end, Coover's death and Dickie's screw-ups, combined with the renewed Givens/Bennett feud convince her that she was kidding herself, and she takes the family's reins once again.

Retired Monster / int_fe5a4514	comment	In the Craft Sequence, the Deathless Kings are a bunch of ultra-powerful sorcerers (Deathless because they've become liches as a natural part of their power level) who went to war with the gods during the God Wars. The Deathless Kings won, killing a number of deities in the process. However, they then realized that someone needed to provide the civic services like clean water that used to be the gods' responsibility. The most prominent Deathless King in the series is Kopil the "King in Red", who brutally slaughtered and enslaved gods after worshipers of one pantheon murdered his lover in a Virgin Sacrifice/hate crime. Afterward, like other Deathless Kings, Kopil refashioned himself into a combination of CEO and city-state ruler and is presented as a Benevolent Boss who cares for his employees and citizens, although still very much a fearsome figure. When a gentrification protest in his city goes bad and rioters begin invoking gods for the power to perform justice, the King in Red is frighteningly eager to fight the old war once again, even though it means deploying lethal military-grade weaponry against his own, civilian population.
