A heroic party whose official professions are defined vaguely enough to allow them to go on all sorts of adventures. Generally requires only one catch (like simply being paid) to take any job no matter how unusual or apparently trite, and all are treated with the same amount of professionalism. A noticeable trend is for these groups to be some variation of either mercenary work or detective work. If dealing with supernatural forces, you literally have a Who You Gonna Call? on your hands. Adventure Guild is a Sub-Trope commonly found in a Role-Playing Game 'Verse. People who do this stuff without getting paid generally have Chronic Hero Syndrome. A variant might be that they'll charge based on the client's ability to pay, lowering or even waiving their fees if the case is interesting enough or the customer is in dire enough straits. Someone who wanders from place to place doing this is a Knight Errant. Named for the slogan of Angel Investigations in Angel. Their original line was in fact "We help the hopeless", but it mutated into "helpless" at some point. |

The protagonists of the Dragon Age games can optionally be played as this kind of Small Steps Hero. They can take time out of their saving-the-world adventures to do things like give money to an orphaned child or track down supplies for homeless refugees. Some of their companions, most notably in Dragon Age: Origins, may express frustration or even outright contempt for these tendencies. Cole from Dragon Age: Inquisition is obsessed with helping people due to his empathic abilities; he used to be a serial killer who would target people who wanted to die, until he finally understood that this was wrong. Now he instead works to help everyone around him in every way he can; the Inquisitor can gain approval from Cole by helping everyone they meet, even if Cole isn't in the active party at the time. It's suggested that this is because he's a Spirit of Compassion who was trapped in the material world. At the end of Inquisition, and again at the end of its final DLC Trespasser, this can be seen in a few ways depending on the player's choices. If Leliana has been made Divine Victoria, she rededicates the Chantry to this cause. If Blackwall is released, he takes to Walking the Earth and doing exactly this by bringing hope to people like himself. If the Grey Wardens are not banished from Orlais, they sever ties with the motherhouse at Weisshaupt and commit themselves to doing more than just hunting darkspawn to help the people of Thedas. |

Given the prevalence of magic in the setting, this lets to their involvement with demons, fast-evolving parasites, assassins, a criminal organization of gender-benders, shamanic serial killers, et cetera. | |

Downplayed in Jagged Alliance. A.I.M. ends up on the side of the good guys a lot of the time, but it is implied that the organisation cultivates this image after the events of the first game (securing production of hugely valuable medicine) gave them a lot of good press. Also, several mercenaries comment that it is nice to work for the good guys. However, this doesn't change the fact that A.I.M. is an organisation of mercenaries and their members expect to be paid handsomely for their services, or that several members of the organisation have worked for some pretty damn unsavory people. | |

Parodied in Smiling Friends, in which it's the main job of the characters to make people smile. This causes them to get into all sorts of wacky zany misadventures. As an example, the very first episode outright hits them with having to help someone so far gone that he's got a gun aimed at his head and refuses to put it away. | |

Star Trek: Picard: Jean-Luc Picard is among the very few people in the Alpha and Beta Quadrants who wanted to save Romulan lives when the Romulan star was about to explode. His personal mission is to rescue Soji from the Zhat Vash. In "Stardust City Rag", he describes her to Seven of Nine as: As a Qowat Milat acolyte, Elnor chooses to bind his sword to Picard's quest because it meets the requirements for worthiness, i.e. it's a lost cause. Protecting Picard (a fragile elderly man) and rescuing Soji (a sentient android whose life is in grave danger) requires Elnor to confront the Tal Shiar and the Zhat Vash on his lonesome, which would be an impossible task for anyone who isn't a Qowat Milat. Technically, Elnor is not Hugh's qalankhkai because he didn't swear the oath, yet he behaves exactly like one. Hugh is a Non-Action Guy, so Elnor takes it upon himself to be his bodyguard, and he supports Hugh's goal to seize control of the Artifact from the Romulan Free State because the latter had sanctioned the slaughter of the xBs. Even after Hugh dies, Elnor is still willing to implement Hugh's plan because, as the older man reminds Elnor before he passes away, it's a lost cause. The goal of the Fenris Rangers, a vigilante group which includes Seven of Nine, is to help those who have no one to help them in the lawless regions of the former Romulan Neutral Zone. As the Executive Director of the Borg Reclamation Project, Hugh supervises the recuperation of ex-Borg drones who have recently undergone the reclamation procedure. The xBs are the most loathed people in the galaxy, so virtually no one is willing to make the effort to understand that they're victims who need help. Hugh was once part of the Collective, so he knows all too well what it's like to be in their place, and he tries his best to care for those who have no else to care for them. |

The Dresden Files: Harry Dresden, the only professional wizard in Chicago. A lot of people ask him why he fights so hard, so unswervingly, for the muggle population that doesn't even believe in the things he fights. Behind the facade of snark, the real reason is that he doesn't think it's right that anyone, anything, is picking on the helpless. The Knights of the Cross are also known for this. There are only three of them, but each one is the bearer of a sword whose hilt has one of the Nails of the Cross worked in — the same nails that were impaled into Christ. They travel the world and help people. Believing in the big G isn't a necessity either, even though they work with literal angels. They just have a strong conviction of helping those who are in danger. |

In Tokyo Shinobi Squad, this is the philosophy of the Narumi-kai. They refuse to take jobs they consider dirty and immoral, only fighting to help the less fortunate from those who would harm them. Unfortunately, in a crime-ridden city like Tokyo, this means their paychecks aren't particularly large. Jin's stubborn refusal to take on jobs from well-paying clients who'd use him for dirty tasks earns him the ire of the office designed to regulate shinobi activity as they try to strongarm him into doing these jobs. | |

In Elementary, Sherlock, unlike most incarnations of Sherlock Holmes, doesn't charge at all for his services, relying on the fact his family is very wealthy, and his dad will pay the bills as long as he's clean. Lampshaded by an exception early on; when he expresses his dislike of a bank by charging them twelve times his usual fee, he tells Watson he's going to have to make up a usual fee. And then multiply it by twelve. | |

Luke Cage (2016): Luke's initial superheroics against Cottonmouth are all in the name of the innocent Harlem residents that Cottonmouth harasses and intimidates. In fact, a Running Gag of the show is people offering Luke money in exchange for his superheroics, or telling him he could charge money for his services, and Luke refusing (especially funny given Luke's "Heroes For Hire" past in the comics). | |

This was Touch Me's main raison d'etre in Overlord (2012), and why he formed the party Nine's Own Goal. In YGGDRASIL, players who picked the monstrous Heteromorphic races were often bullied by those that picked Humanoid or Demi-Human ones, and the mass slaughter of Heteromorphs was even a requirement to take certain job classes. Touch Me, a Heteromorph himself who liked to role play as a Knight in Shining Armor, would swoop in to save any fellow Heteromorph who was under attack, including protagonist Momonga. | |

Fittingly, in Skyrim, the Vigil of Stendarr is a Church Militant order dedicated to hunting down and destroying supernatural threats to mortal life, including Daedra, Daedra worshipers, vampires, lycanthropes, and others. The Vigil formed in the wake of the Oblivion Crisis with the goal of preventing any similar incidents. The Vigil believes itself to be doing good and helping the helpless, which is, for the most part, accurate. They'll cure disease free of charge and work to eliminate supernatural threats to mortal life. However, they can also veer into Knight Templar territory pretty easily. | |

She's reliable enough (when sober) that high-price attorneys like Jeri Hogarth and corporate billionaires like Joy Meachum are willing to employ her services.

The WWE tag team, sometimes trio, The Acolyte Protection Agency (APA for short) hired themselves out to various underdog faces for bodyguarding, six-man-tag-teaming, and general-purpose ass-kicking. They even had a few faux-commercials for their services, with the tag line "APA: 'cause we need beer money!" Also see Kronik late in the run of WCW, though they were just as likely to take a job For the Evulz. | |

Star Wars: Allegiance: The Hand of Judgment doesn't even get paid. They are five stormtroopers who left the Empire — or, as one of them says, "The Empire left us" when the ISB went after one of them for refusing to kill unarmed civilians; this incident made them realize that the Empire was no longer what it had been when they signed up, so they stole an ISB ship and fled. From there, while they argued about what to do, they kept running into situations where Imperial citizens, or people they thought were Imperial citizens, were in danger, and they kept trying to help them. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Following the events of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, S.H.I.E.L.D. begins to reformat itself back into this, which was its original purpose before everyone got ideas about "stopping threats before they start". Skye has a quick conversation to this effect with the leader of a Differently Powered Individual colony. Daredevil (2015): Nelson & Murdock is a firm that provides legal services to working class residents in Hell's Kitchen that can't go anywhere else. For instance, they decide to defend Karen Page because Matt knows from her heartbeat that she's innocent, she admits that she doesn't have any money to afford an attorney, and she's their first client in the seven hours since Matt and Foggy signed the lease for their office space. Jessica Jones (2015): Jessica Jones' private investigation business caters to all walks of life.

Dungeons & Dragons and many of its campaign settings like Forgotten Realms have pretty much all and any adventuring groups (chartered or not) that have no strict official affiliation, as a cheap and easy way for the Game Master to get the adventure started — it's a particularly good fit for the Lawful Good alignment, though Neutral Good characters can often fit this as well. | |

The Knights of the Cross are also known for this. There are only three of them, but each one is the bearer of a sword whose hilt has one of the Nails of the Cross worked in — the same nails that were impaled into Christ. They travel the world and help people. Believing in the big G isn't a necessity either, even though they work with literal angels. They just have a strong conviction of helping those who are in danger. | |

Superman: There is a reason why Superman was called "Champion of the Oppressed" back in The Golden Age of Comic Books. Despite having the powers of a god and the potential to take over the world with barely a thought, he'd rather stop runaway trains and rescue cats from trees. Demonstrated in this quote: Supergirl can't stop herself from helping people in need. During the early Silver Age, she spent more time protecting the weak and making people happy anonymously than fighting supervillains. "Help for all" is actually her motto. |

In Xenoblade Chronicles X, BLADE's primary mission is to recover the Lifehold core, but they're generally designed to be able to respond to anything and everything that the citizens of New Los Angeles need. From fighting off dangerous Indigens and hostile Xenoforms, Scouting the planet and installing Data Probes, solving domestic disputes, finding lost pets, and anything else under Mira's five moons. Granted, BLADE is divided into divisions that supposedly specialize in more specific fields but any BLADE, regardless of division, can accept any job if they feel they can handle it. So it's not uncommon for, say, a Harrier to provide marriage counseling, or an Outfitter to gun down a rampaging Millisaur if they need to. This is justified in universe, as humanity has only been living on the planet for a couple of months prior to the game's start, and they know next to nothing about it. Such flexibility is ideal in a situation where anything can happen. | |

The Elder Scrolls: In the series' mythology, this falls within the realm of Stendarr, the Aedric Divine God of Mercy, Justice, and Compassion. He is a protector deity and heavily associated with Restoration magic. His Commandment states: "Be kind and generous to the people of Tamriel. Protect the weak, heal the sick, and give to the needy." Fittingly, in Skyrim, the Vigil of Stendarr is a Church Militant order dedicated to hunting down and destroying supernatural threats to mortal life, including Daedra, Daedra worshipers, vampires, lycanthropes, and others. The Vigil formed in the wake of the Oblivion Crisis with the goal of preventing any similar incidents. The Vigil believes itself to be doing good and helping the helpless, which is, for the most part, accurate.

One of the jobs of the Seeker of Truth in the Sword of Truth series. Because of all of the world-threatening dangers that Richard ends up fighting, he very rarely has time to help the little guys. Knowing this, when he does have time, he teaches them to help themselves, often leading by example. It's surprisingly effective. Kahlan had a similar moment, but only if the definition of 'helpless' includes "tiny military force pitting themselves against hilariously larger force". | |

Leverage has this from the second episode on (in the pilot, each of the five thieves makes it out with over $32 million on short-sold stock). It's an odd duck because, unlike most other examples of this trope, the characters really don't need money very much at all and are therefore never broke. Then again, international thieves are a lot like stockbrokers: if the guy's broke, he's probably not worth hiring. | |

The Trails Series has the Bracer Guild who are paid to help out their customers and hunt down monsters to protect the citizens. The protagonists also end up doing this, but it varies from game to game. The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky has the protagonists Estelle and Joshua Bright who start out as Junior Bracers in the Bracer Guild and work their way up in the ladder. The Legend of Heroes: Trails from Zero and Trails to Azure has the Special Support Section, a branch of the police who are emulating the ways of the Bracer Guild branch at Crossbell to win back the citizens, who see the police as ineffectual and corrupt. The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel doesn't really have a group but Olivert, after his experiences in Liberl, decided to emulate the bracers way of thinking by having one class in a military school consist of both nobles and commoners to see if they can lead the way for both classes to work together. Of course, it helps that the Bracer Guild doesn't have a branch in the Erebonia Empire due to the events that happened back in the Sky games. The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak has the Spriggan occupation with Van Arkride being one such person who has an office called the "Arkride Solutions Office" (even though his employees just decided to join him on a whim without his consent). Unlike the Bracer Guild, Spriggans are notorious for accepting requests that can skirt along the line and even break some laws. |

Red Dead Redemption 2: The Van der Linde Gang's philosophy as summarized by Dutch is "we shoot fellas as need shootin', save fellas as need savin', and feed 'em as need feedin'." However, the romantic nature of the crusading outlaw becomes brutally deconstructed over the course of the game; if Dutch indeed wanted to help others and retreat from the modern world while spreading his quasi-Luddist philosophy, he could've started some sort of anarcho-primitivist collective and lived peacefully in the wilderness. But his insistence on maintaining an Old West gang and fighting injustice through force of arms means that the modern world will always be at his heels hunting him down. Just being a band of outlaws in the first place requires them to fend off other, more vicious gangs for territory and dominance, leaving little time for heroism, while Dutch himself slowly becomes (or is revealed as) a tyrant who doesn't allow anything less than unwavering loyalty in the ranks. Ultimately, all they've got separating them from the O'Driscolls in the eyes of the law is a code of ethics and a mission statement, and the law doesn't give a damn about good intentions. Whether Dutch sincerely believes in his Robin Hood ideals or is using them as an excuse to justify a life of crime is left up to the player, but taking advice from Micah, a trigger-happy psycho who's only looking out for number one, is what ultimately dooms the gang. | |

Sherlock Holmes is one of the most iconic examples. As a Private Detective, many of Holmes's cases are brought to him by clients needing help, up to and including Inspector Lestrade and the rest of Scotland Yard. Holmes charges his clients for his efforts, but he'll sometimes waive the fee for clients who have limited means and/or especially interesting problems. He's also been known to ignore requests from the wealthy and powerful when their cases don't interest him in favor of commoner clients whose problems appeal to him. | |

Samus Aran's missions Metroid series are generally simple; investigate a disturbance on a planet, exterminate all the metroids, etc. But in quite a few games, she goes above and beyond the strict terms of her contract due to her own heroic sensibilities. The two most extreme examples are perhaps Prime 2 (sent to investigate the missing Bravo team; ends up saving an entire planet from the same creatures that killed Bravo Team), and Fusion (Sent to exterminate the X Parasites, ends up defying her orders and breaking her contract in order to exterminate not only them, but also destroy the illegal, Federation-run Metroid cloning project and the planet of SR-388). One can only imagine her collecting her meager contract for the investigations that kicked off each adventure. As far as Fusion goes, she might not even get paid for that mission, given the end result. | |

The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak has the Spriggan occupation with Van Arkride being one such person who has an office called the "Arkride Solutions Office" (even though his employees just decided to join him on a whim without his consent). Unlike the Bracer Guild, Spriggans are notorious for accepting requests that can skirt along the line and even break some laws. | |

Minako Aino from Sailor Moon just can't stop herself from helping anyone in need she stumbles upon, especially in her solo series, no matter the trouble she may get in doing so (once she's late to school, once she nearly misses a lottery she wants to take part in and ends up winning it as Sailor V, and once she nearly exposes her Secret Identity), and without asking for rewards (and the one time she is given a reward for helping a mangaka complete the next chapter before the deadline, Artemis convinces her to give it back). | |

The Knights Hospitaller in Infinity are an order of Warrior Monks who see it as their sacred duty to help others, from protecting their allies to going on high-risk missions to liberate captives and prisoners of war. | |

Downplayed in The Witcher. Sure, witchers are mutated, raised and trained to kill monsters, Walking the Earth for rest of their days and actively seeking dangers to fight... but being characters from a Low Fantasy Deconstructor Fleet, they do it for a reasonable price and only when they find it worth the hassle, or when rent is due. | |

The MITHRIL Organization from the Full Metal Panic! series, on an international scale. They are, amongst other things, hired by the UN to clean up civil wars and stop ethnic cleansing. | |
