The Sacrificial Lion is a sympathetic character who is slated to die so that the audience knows that the villain is playing for keeps or that the situation really is as dangerous and desperate as it seems. The death is ultimately unnecessary in the large scheme of things, but it does provide a shocking twist to the proceedings. The main distinction between this and a Sacrificial Lamb is in the presentation of their characters. The Sacrificial Lamb is a throwaway minor character who is made to be likable just so that the audience feels sad when they die. Their death provides no real change to the plot, only that we know the enemy is Dead Serious. On the other hand, the Sacrificial Lion might not be central to the plot, but the character isn't throwaway; quite often, in fact, a Sacrificial Lion will be one of the second- or even first-tier characters. Their death usually produces a noticeable shockwave to the story or changes the way the rest of the characters behave. Sometimes they die specifically to bump the villain over the Moral Event Horizon. If their death is directly vital to the story (such as a political assassination), then it ceases to be a "sacrificial" character and becomes plot-relevant. Finally, where the Sacrificial Lamb tends to die relatively early on in the story, the Sacrificial Lion will hang around for longer, and their death will often times signal the beginning of the story (or Story Arc)'s endgame, the advent of the Darkest Hour, or turn what otherwise would be a Happy Ending into a Wham Episode with a Bittersweet Ending. Often found in Anyone Can Die stories, specifically to signal that from now on, no one is safe. A Mauve Shirt is frequently in danger of becoming a Sacrificial Lion if the writers decide to kill him off for a cheap shock. Decoy Protagonists can rapidly become Sacrificial Lions as well, in which case this also qualifies as a Gut Punch. This is essentially The Worf Effect taken right to the hilt. Compare the Knight of Cerebus, who probably killed him. In a video game, his death is likely to be a Player Punch. May or may not have anything to do with actual sacrificial lions. As a Death Trope, all spoilers will be unmarked ahead. Beware. |

In Terry Pratchett's Night Watch, the main action is kicked off by Carcer's murder of Sergeant Stronginthearm. Stronginthearm was a dwarf who was leading a riot against the trolls and was drafted into the new Watch by Captain Carrot in the second of the Watch novels. Since then, he rose through the ranks, eventually becoming a mainstay of the City Watch, as evidenced by his rank. His death, while not as shocking as that of a first or second tier character, managed to effectively communicate just how dangerous Carcer was, and how the story was about to take a turn for the worse. | |

Sleepless Domain starts off being about Team Alchemical, a team of Magical Girls with Elemental Powers. Until Chapter 2, when Alchemical Air, Fire, and Earth are killed in action, and Alchemical Aether saves Water at the cost of her own powers. Then the comic becomes the story of Undine (Water) and Tessa (Aether) moving on with their lives as best they can. | |

Carrisa, a gifted Amazon surgeon who was friends with Diana and a supporting character in Wonder Woman (1987), was killed in the OMAC attack on Themyscira to make it clear the things were a true threat even to the Amazons, and so that she wouldn't be around to protest using the purple ray to create a superweapon. | |

Spoofed in Clone High, in which Ponce de Leon would appear to be one of these if not for the fact that he's introduced in the same episode that he snuffs it, as well as the amusingly obvious foreshadowing of his death. Both the next-episode preview and the cold open feature the narrator making a big deal of "a clone dies tonight!" | |

Mad Eye Moody in the beginning of the seventh book. Immediately after his death, the characters comment on how surprising Moody's death is given his seemingly badass and invincible nature. It also signals that characters can now die at any point of the book, not just in the climax as with books 4-6. This is especially ironic because at the time Mad Eye was riding with Mundungus Fletcher, a veritable Mauve Shirt. | |

DMZ has the death of protagonist Matty's girlfriend Kelly at around the one-third mark. As with former trope namer Cedric Diggory, this signals the point in the story at which significant characters are no longer safe, especially as she is among the countable-on-your-fingers number of completely good people in the setting. | |

Impossible Creatures (2023): Gelifen, Mal's last companion and the whole reason Christopher learned about the Archipelago, dies because Mal tries to give up and go home, runs into Adam, and learns why he was trying to kill her. In the scuffle, Adam mortally wounds Gelifen. This motivates Mal to finally stop denying that she's the Immortal. | |

The Chronicles of Prydain: Adaon, son of the chief bard Taliesin, in The Black Cauldron. He had become a close friend and confidante of protagonist Taran and Taran's other friends, and his death changed Taran forever. Later, in The High King, Coll son of Collfrewr and King Rhun of Mona also become Sacrificial Lions. Coll is particularly gut-wrenching for the reader because he helped raise Taran from infancy. |

Most Redwall novels have at least one major character dying halfway through or towards the end of the book. Salamandastron took it up a notch and killed off one of the main characters. Martin The Warrior did the same, not only killing off one of the main characters, but doing so in the most heartbreaking manner possible. | |

Honor Harrington: Havenite admiral Javier Giscard in At All Costs. He is the first sympathetic Havenite character to be killed — and by the title character herself, no less! Having been around for half-a-dozen books and a central figure of the growing Havenite rebellion — and also the lover and de facto husband of President Eloise Pritchart — his death serves to underscore the severity of the current situation, the terrible mishandling of diplomacy by Corrupt Politicians on both sides, and the desperation with which a peace is needed. In the next (mainline) book, Manticore and Haven make peace and sign a mutual defense treaty that forms the Grand Alliance — all because the woman he loved made the gamble of her life and won. | |

RWBY: In Volume 3, Pyrrha Nikos' death during the Battle of Beacon triggers Ruby Rose's Traumatic Superpower Awakening. This kick-starts the main storyline by leading both Ruby and the remainder of Pyrrha's team on a quest to Haven Academy to learn who is responsible for Beacon's destruction. In Volume 7, Clover Ebi is introduced as one of the kingdom's most elite Huntsmen and a partner for Qrow. By the finale, Clover becomes the first major casualty of Salem's attack on Atlas and heralds the darker tone of Volume 8. |

Harry Potter Cedric Diggory, in the former Trope Namer. He's introduced a book before, given loads of Character Development, becomes Harry's friend in addition to his rival... and then is rather casually murdered, just to show how evil Voldemort is. In commentary on the series, his death serves the meta purpose of showing that Rowling was playing for keeps. Sirius Black's death at the end of the fifth book signals that even the major characters aren't safe. Mad Eye Moody in the beginning of the seventh book. Immediately after his death, the characters comment on how surprising Moody's death is given his seemingly badass and invincible nature. It also signals that characters can now die at any point of the book, not just in the climax as with books 4-6. This is especially ironic because at the time Mad Eye was riding with Mundungus Fletcher, a veritable Mauve Shirt. Hedwig dies early on in the last book. Rather distressing given that she had been Harry's faithful pet owl for the entire series up to that point. (The Film of the Book turns her death into a Heroic Sacrifice; she had escaped but came back to protect Harry.) Dobby's death saving the trio along with Olivander, Luna, Dean and Griphook convinces Harry to focus on the Horcruxes over the Hallows. In the climax of the final book, Fred Weasley, Remus Lupin, Nymphadora Tonks and Colin Creevey are among the major casualties of the Battle of Hogwarts. |

The Song of Dragons trilogy in the Dragons of Requiem series started off by killing only one major character — in the same chapter she was introduced in. But then Benedictus, who is central to the trilogy's plot and arguably one of the main characters with the strongest amount of Plot Armor, is killed at the end of the second novel to show that all bets were off by the third novel. | |

Stronginthearm was a dwarf who was leading a riot against the trolls and was drafted into the new Watch by Captain Carrot in the second of the Watch novels. Since then, he rose through the ranks, eventually becoming a mainstay of the City Watch, as evidenced by his rank. His death, while not as shocking as that of a first or second tier character, managed to effectively communicate just how dangerous Carcer was, and how the story was about to take a turn for the worse. Another Terry Pratchett example in Men at Arms with Cuddy, who achieves major character status within the book and was set up for some sort of Odd Couple relationship with Detritus the troll.note If you're not a Discworld fan, it's trolls that dwarves have a longstanding racial grudge against instead of elves. But then, just as they've both gone through a bit of Character Development and become Fire-Forged Friends, Cuddy gets killed. And Detritus does not take it well. |

Homestuck: Jade's Dream Self gets killed off by Jack, mostly to show how deathly seriously broken their game is. Jack's first action after being prototyped with Becquerel is to kill Bro, whom he had been fighting with on equal terms before. And even later, half of the trolls die in Act 5. Including Vriska, who for a while became a patron to the comic's main character. And even more later, Jade gets killed off to show how much Aranea is a threat to the session. |

In The Order of the Stick, both Roy and Durkon die at various points. In both cases, it's later subverted when they are eventually resurrected, but the keyword is "eventually" — their deaths cause major hardships for the party for a not-inconsiderable amount of time before they can be reversed. | |

Lieutenant Bradley from Schlock Mercenary, when an attack on the tank he was flying resulted in it losing power, leaving the tank to destroy property and/or kill innocents when it finally came down unless something was done about it. Other Toughs have died as well, but this guy got a lot of character development, being in the cast since pretty much the beginning of the comic, and getting a lot of screen time in the process. | |

Inez Polk is one of the main supporting characters in The Howling (1977); she becomes a close friend and confidant to Karyn, and is one of her only allies in Drago as Roy becomes increasingly distant and she realises she can't trust her neighbours. Inez figures out that all of Drago's inhabitants are werewolves and is on her way to warn Karyn when she's waylaid and killed by a werewolf. When Karyn learns of Inez' death in a supposed 'car accident', she realises the werewolves killed her to shut her up and she herself is in grave danger, calling Chris for help. | |

The death of Jet in Avatar: The Last Airbender certainly counts. He's killed soon after redeeming himself, and besides the fact that it came because he helped Aang find Appa again, his death doesn't otherwise benefit the heroes in the least (not like Yue's in the Book One finale). Add to it that he died in "Book Two: Chapter 17" — only three episodes before the (temporary) death of Aang himself — and it really emphasises the seriousness of the conflict. | |

Cliffjumper in Transformers: Prime, who's killed by Starscream in the first act of the first episode. Ostensibly, this setup would put him more in the category of a sacrificial lamb, however, he was heavily featured in promos for the show in advance of its premiere and is a well-known heritage name from the franchise, priming (heh) expectations and implying that he would be a regular character. His death has a significant effect on the Autobots as they come together as a team and with their human friends. And it makes them a little sore when confronting the Decepticons later on. More than just a little in Arcee's case, as Cliffjumper was her partner. A rare villainous version occurs in Crossfire, with Breakdown getting eviscerated by Airachnid to show she's cutting ties with the Decepticons. |

Val-Lor in Superman mini-series The Krypton Chronicles. The Vrangs had ruled Krypton for two decades, keeping the Kryptonians as slaves, until a slave called Val-Lor spoke out openly against them. Val-Lor was gunned down on the spot, but his bravery and defiance inspired his fellow slaves, who revolted right away. Their rebellion grew into a planet-wide uprising, and eventually the Vrangs were forced to leave forever. | |

When Bigwig in Watership Down sets himself up for a toe-to-toe with Woundwort, he fully expects to go out as one of these. It's his last fight, whatever happens, and he knows it. His subverts the trope and sends Woundwort packing in fear — something that had never happened before and (given what happens shortly thereafter) never happens again. According to Richard Adams, he'd actually intended for Bigwig to die there, but his daughters begged him to change it (the story was originally created for them), and so he survived. The animated film adaptation, however, turns Blackavar into one of these in practically the same manner that Adams had intended for Bigwig, so it fulfills this trope. | |

Spider-Man: Sally Avril from Untold Tales of Spider-Man, one of Peter Parker's fellow students. She tries to become a vigilante like Spider-Man, but he tries to dissuade her due to the risks. Undaunted, she later dies in an auto accident after recklessly pursuing Spidey to get photographs of him in action. Spider-Verse has gone out of its way to prove that no variation of Spider-Man is safe. Killing the Spider-Man of Marvel1602 is bad enough. The Spider-Man from the very first issue of What If? is killed as well. And if that isn't enough proof, consider the following: the entire cast of Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends and Spider-Man Unlimited, even if it isn't the actual world, were murdered. Due to his universal acclaim (hell, even Garth Ennis loves the guy), horror spinoffs always go for a Gut Punch by killing off Spider-Man in the most horrific ways possible or simply making him the first to go. See Marvel Zombies, The Punisher Kills the Marvel Universe, Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe, or Ruins. |

The Incredibles originally planned on having a civilian airplane pilot killed after being shot down to prove that the bad guys were playing for keeps. Fortunately for him, the creators of the film decided that it would take too long to introduce the character for long enough to make the audience care about his death, and the character's role was reduced to simply loaning Helen a plane. Watch that scene — right after the main body of the airplane hits the water between the main characters, there's a shot looking down into the depths for a few seconds as the plane sinks. The pilot's hat was originally supposed to be drifting forlornly upwards in that shot, making it look a little pointless without it. | |

If there was any question of just what Transformers: Animated's Shockwave was made of, it was removed when he crushed Blurr into a cube. Cliffjumper in Transformers: Prime, who's killed by Starscream in the first act of the first episode. Ostensibly, this setup would put him more in the category of a sacrificial lamb, however, he was heavily featured in promos for the show in advance of its premiere and is a well-known heritage name from the franchise, priming (heh) expectations and implying that he would be a regular character. His death has a significant effect on the Autobots as they come together as a team and with their human friends. And it makes them a little sore when confronting the Decepticons later on. More than just a little in Arcee's case, as Cliffjumper was her partner. A rare villainous version occurs in Crossfire, with Breakdown getting eviscerated by Airachnid to show she's cutting ties with the Decepticons. |

Unsounded: While there was always a feeling that anyone could die the main characters were safe up until chapter 16 where two major characters, two recurring named antagonists and a minor character Sette had just informally inducted into her "gang" all kicked it, ensuring readers know that from here on out no one is safe. | |

Bitch Planet initially follows Marian Collins, who complains that she's being unjustly punished as she is transported to the titular prison for "non-compliant" women. Her plight appears to be the focus of the series until her death at the end of the first issue, which was ordered to cover up a bureaucratic error and which emphasizes how secondary women are in this world. It also serves to bring the real protagonist into focus. | |

The Lion's Den has two. Torio Iwata acts as a critical Voice of Reason for Makoto during their imprisonment, and his death at the hands of Munakata after he helps Makoto reach the Future Foundation's search party serves as a major Cynicism Catalyst, alongside the loss of his pet grizzly Kuma. | |

The Hunger Games: Cinna in Catching Fire. He is subjected to a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown by Capitol guards and Katniss is forced to watch but cannot help him, as she is currently travelling to the arena for her second Games. He gets killed offscreen at some point between the second and third books. President Snow did this just to screw with Katniss as she entered the arena, in the hope that her focus would be thrown off and she'd get herself killed. With Cinna's murder, character deaths were no longer restricted to the Games. Prim—Katniss' beloved little sister whom she volunteered as Tribute for in order to save her life in the first book—is killed by bombs during the final battle between the rebels and the Capitol in Mockingjay. Especially given that Katniss is told that Snow would never kill Prim, making him in some ways the lesser of two evils as she realises it was President Coin who orchestrated the bombing to achieve victory. |

Code Prime: Throughout R1, Cliffjumper receives more screentime than he did in Prime, forming a strong sibling-like dynamic with Kallen and Arcee. At the same time, Dreadwing's time in the story has him established as the Token Good Teammate of the Decepticons, forming a friendship with Suzaku and Euphemia that culminates in a Heel–Face Turn following the SAZ Massacre. Then comes the Black Rebellion, where both Cliff and Dreadwing sacrifice themselves, the former killing Luciano Bradley in an electric explosion, and the latter taking down an Insecticon Hive to help save Euphemia and Cornelia. Both of them are the first on the heroes' side to die, establishing that nobody is safe in war, as the sequel R2 sees several more prominent Autobots and Black Knights be killed off. | |

T.O.T. was mostly restrained in killing off the main characters for two-thirds of the story. Then Mark, who was written to be the main protagonist, dies at the end of Chapter 9. From that point forward, all the humor in the story went away, and each subsequent chapter killed off at least one main character. | |

Granch in Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld was an ally of the titular protagonist in the first half of the original maxi-series. As the story progresses, he rallies together his siblings for an attack on the Big Bad Dark Opal (Granch and his siblings were Dark Opal's children, but they were rejected by him due to their deformities, and Opal instead adopted Carnelian to replace them). In the end, all of Granch's siblings are killed, and Granch himself dies in battle against Dark Opal himself. This is at the half-way point of the series, and Granch's death causes Amethyst to realize just how serious this is and how evil Dark Opal truly is. | |
