Hometown isn't doomed? Doom it yourself! Whether it's an accident, revenge or just plain anger, heroes sometimes display disturbing tendencies toward destroying their own hometowns, countries, planets or even universes. Bonus point if they simultaneously kill their parents. It doesn't count if only the house is destroyed, in attempts to kill the hero or just to spite them. It also doesn't count if a broader war is involved, unless the character's actions directly created that war. This is more frequent with villains, especially the more vile and over-the-top ones. Sometimes it's to demonstrate how disturbed they are, other times it's a Start of Darkness event for them. Or maybe they just really liked the sound of being the Last of His Kind. This trope sometimes overlaps with Destroy the Abusive Home, though the character is generally portrayed sympathetically if this is the case. See also The End of the World as We Know It, Genocide from the Inside, Mike Nelson, Destroyer of Worlds, With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility. Compare Let the Past Burn. |

In Shin Megami Tensei IV, this happens to the Eastern Kingdom of Mikado through slightly different flavors in both the Chaos and Neutral paths. In Chaos, by destroying the angels who have replaced the kingdom's rulers and blasting Naraku open, Mikado descends into anarchy. In Neutral, you have to order the entire kingdom's evacuation for events to unfold. Let's just say that the original settlers could have chosen the site for their castle much better. | |

The same effect (technically) happens to Kamille. The same also, being something of a remake, happens to Kira (again being a remake, having done the same thing as Amuro among other things to damage his colony beyond repair) and Shinn , through in Shinn's case it has a lot more to do with being bitter at ORB (for the death of his familly) than anything. | |

In The Witchlands, Esme was exiled from her tribe because she was unable to use her magic to make Threadstones. Years later, after finding out that her power is different (and much more sinister) than she'd thought, she returned to her tribe and killed every single one of them. Now, she keeps them all as her puppets. | |

Arrow. When the League of Assassins gets a new Ras Al Ghul, he has to destroy his city or hometown of provenance in a symbolic casting off of ties. This is problematic for Oliver Queen when he's offered the position in Season 4, given that he's been trying to save his city since start of the series. | |

The universe of From the New World centers around the development of psychic powers, particularly telekinetic, in humans. This power, called PK, is capable of doing many things, some of which we aren't even aware of yet. There's one thing most know for certain, however; that it is very dangerous. Those that contract a certain mental disease, called Hashimoto-Appelbaum Syndrome, have difficulty relating to their fellow humans and can lose control of their power. As you can imagine, this could lead to some pretty horrific circumstances. Shun, one of the main characters of the series, contracts the syndrome. His family is the first to die, before he completely annihilates his entire village and warps the rest of the landscape. Then, he strands himself in the middle of nowhere in some creepy, nightmare inducing, PK-altered landscape to record his experience before the Earth swallows him whole. Oh, and he was only fourteen. And that's not even the worst of it. Boy K, a boy that lived long before Shun, had sociopathic thoughts and ideas, but behaved normally enough, so the community overlooked it. As it turns out, that was a terrible thing to do, because eventually something in him snapped. After brutally TEARING his teacher apart in the middle of a class lesson, he goes on a PK rampage, nearly wiping out the entire village, including his classmates, mere children, in scenes that were too graphic to show. |

Naruto: Itachi Uchiha massacred his entire family and clan in their private section of the village of Konoha. Zigzagged; while Itachi did kill his clan, it was actually a mission assigned to him by the village. The clan was planning a coup and Itachi wiping them out seemingly on his own let the village save face. Sasuke Uchiha briefly intended to invoke this trope after learning the truth about the above situation. |

Fullmetal Alchemist: Ed and Al burn down their house to symbolize how they'd never look back during their quest to regain their bodies. However, their father guesses that the true reason was to try to forget the shame of their failings. Speaking of Hohenheim, he absorbed half the population of the empire of Xerxes when he became a living Philosopher's Stone. The other half went to Father. |

A very long term version (as in at least a decade-long gap) occurs with RWBY: Cinder, The Dragon to Big Bad Salem was raised in an orphanage before she was purchased and spent her first 15 years of life as a slave in Atlas to a monstrous stepmother and stepsisters. Abused and tormented, she would eventually snap (and killing her mentor after he betrayed her by treating her as a criminal for standing up to her tormentors) and fall under the wing of Salem. Years later, she would return and play an instrumental role in the destruction of Atlas, sinking it and the place of her torment underwater in a long term revenge for Atlas' horrific system and the abuse it inflicted on her as a result. A more typical version occurs with Mercury Black, one of Cinder's personal minions. His abusive father raised him as an assassin, constantly brutalizing him under the pretense of training him, even taking away his Semblance (the manifestation of one's soul turned into a superpower). Mercury would eventually snap and murder his father, also burning down the house he and his father lived in. This event would be a major factor in Cinder recruiting him to her side. |

Trigun: Knives blew up the ship where he was born and brought up as part of his first attempt to kill off the human race; in the anime, he manipulates and kills off the entire crew beforehand. Legato Bluesummers seems to have almost gotten himself killed as a child out of his determination to do this, instead of using his nascent mind-control powers to get the fuck away and run like hell. That Knives appears to have turned up and killed the whole town for kicks at the last moment is icing on the cake of rape-stopping and life-saving and electing-not-to-murder and tacit-acceptance-of-lifelong-fealty. |

Final Fantasy VII has a creative variant in the Nibelheim burning. Sephiroth was born (and experimented on by his very own Father) in the Village of Nibelheim (which coincidentally happens to be the Protagonist's Doomed Hometown), but later taken to and raised at the resident MegaCorp's HQ. When he returns to his birthplace many years later, he has no idea about his connection to Nibelheim, but once he finds it out, he doesn't take the news too well... | |

Jak and co. do this to their homeworld by accident at the start of Jak II: Renegade by opening portal and releasing a horde of Metal Heads including their leader into the world. That is enough to turn relatively lively locales into deadly wasteland where only toughest survive, with the rest living in citadels ruled either by tyrants, mafia, or at the very least living by the 'survival of the fittest' mantra. | |

In The Order of the Stick: Resident Heroic Comedic Sociopath Belkar Bitterleaf claims he intends to do this to his Halfling village in order to earn roleplaying XP. Durkon might do it by accident, given a prophecy that he knows nothing about. Since he's become a vampire possessed by an evil spirit who is infiltrating the Dwarven homeland to try to bring about the end of the world, this has become a much more immediate threat. |

Metal Gear Psycho Mantis from Metal Gear Solid destroyed his home village during what can be described as a psychic temper tantrum. Though discovering through mind reading that his father blamed him for his mother dying in childbirth, generally hated him, and harbored the secret desire to kill him makes his trauma and anger certainly justified. In Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Laughing Octopus was forced to participate in the massacre that killed everyone else in her hometown by personally torturing her entire family to death. |

Fallout: New Vegas. An early sidequest allows you to side with the Powder Gangers and massacre everyone in Goodsprings. Technically, Goodsprings isn't the Courier's hometown, but it's close enough. The Lonesome Road DLC reveals the Courier was unintentionally responsible for destroying The Divide. Twice. With nukes. Dead Money DLC allows you to join the forces with Father Elijah and dooming entire Mojave by releasing The Cloud from Sierra Madre into it. This gives you Non-Standard Game Over. In the bad ending of Fallout, the Vault Dweller is converted into a Super Mutant, who joins the other Mutants in massacreing Vault 13. |

In Superman: The Animated Series: Superman's old foe Brainiac got a new origin: instead of a mad scientist from the planet Colu, he was an intelligent supercomputer from Krypton. When Jor-El shared his fears that the planet was going to explode, Brainiac lied and said Jor-El was wrong while secretly plotting his own escape, because Brainiac realized that if Krypton's council discovered the planet was doomed, they would have put him to work trying to evacuate everyone, a futile gesture that would have doomed Brainiac as well. Being the last holder of knowledge about a whole world appealed to him. In fact, he liked the idea so much he started doing it to other worlds too. Also providing the page quote is Lobo, who blew up his home planet and wiped out his entire race for his high school science project (which he gave himself an A for). In this case it was Played for Laughs. |

Torture Princess: Fremd Torturchen: Elisabeth Le Fanu was fed demon flesh as a child by her Evil Uncle, which cured her Incurable Cough of Death but caused her to be wracked with pain that she could only address by torturing people—which in turn generated mana for her due to the demon flesh. She went on to brutally slaughter her entire hometown, transforming her into a partly demonic being capable of conjuring torture and execution implements, the eponymous "Torture Princess". | |

Or nuke Megaton, the first major town visited after leaving the Vault, and where James and his infant child stopped by on their way to the Vault.

In the Annals of the Black Company, the man known as "Erin NoFather, an unlanded priest of the god Vancer from Slinger, in the kingdom of Vye" eventually became the Dominator. Of course, by that time he'd made sure to wipe the town of Slinger off the face of the earth, and kill everyone who had lived there while he was growing up, to prevent any of his enemies learning his true name. Later he laid waste to all of Vye. | |

In Chrono Crusade, Joshua goes insane when Aion gives him Chrono's horns, which allows him to hear the thoughts of everyone around him. He "stops the noise" by freezing everyone in the orphanage he lives in to stone. Also doubles as a Doomed Hometown for Chrono and Rosette—their goal is both to save Joshua, and unfreeze the children in the orphanage. Also, in the manga Aion's plans are reveal to be a plot to destroy Pandaemonium (the demon's home) and "remake" the world. He succeeds in destroying Pandy and killing all of the demons but himself, Chrono and Shader, but Chrono and Rosette stop him before he destroys all of humanity. |

Gundam: Mobile Suit Gundam's Amuro Ray accidentally blows a hole in the wall of Side 7 shortly after he gets on the Gundam. The same effect (technically) happens to Kamille. The same also, being something of a remake, happens to Kira (again being a remake, having done the same thing as Amuro among other things to damage his colony beyond repair) and Shinn , through in Shinn's case it has a lot more to do with being bitter at ORB (for the death of his familly) than anything. |

One Piece: Skypiea Antagonist, Enel, destroyed his home sky island of Birka before traveling to Skypeia and using his army of followers and his powerful lightning Logia Devil Fruit to overthrow Gan Fall and take over as "God". In Skypiea, "God" is merely the title given to the ruler of the land and doesn't mean they are an actual Deity. Despite this, Enel does refer to himself as a God thanks to his Devil fruit, which is so powerful it has given him delusions of Godhood. | |

Psycho Mantis from Metal Gear Solid destroyed his home village during what can be described as a psychic temper tantrum. Though discovering through mind reading that his father blamed him for his mother dying in childbirth, generally hated him, and harbored the secret desire to kill him makes his trauma and anger certainly justified. | |

Final Fantasy In Final Fantasy II, the returned-from-Hell Emperor Mateus raises the castle of Pandemonium where Castle Palamecia stood, utterly destroying his former seat of power. In Final Fantasy IV, after Cecil and Kain are tricked into burning down the village of Mist, young Rydia summons Titan in an attempt at a Roaring Rampage of Revenge but mainly succeeds only in finishing the job. It doesn't end there, interestingly—at least in the DS version. Scenes from much, much later in the game strongly imply that orphan Cecil was himself born in Mist, meaning his first action in the game is to unwittingly and unwillingly destroy the place of his birth—at the command of Cagnazzo, who is himself at the command of Golbez/Theodor, Cecil's older brother, who spent his childhood in Mist as well. At least in the SNES version(not the Bowlderized FFII, though maybe even there), Mist wasn't actually destroyed: you can return via airship. You can return to Mist in every single version of FFIV. Problem is, the only version that shows any damage to the town after the traumatic event is the DS version, where you can see the damage to some of the houses. If you talk with the inhabitants there, they will reference the horrible disaster that killed all of the summoners. Maybe Mist had two significant populations: the world's only summoners, and the world's best carpenters. Final Fantasy VII has a creative variant in the Nibelheim burning. Sephiroth was born (and experimented on by his very own Father) in the Village of Nibelheim (which coincidentally happens to be the Protagonist's Doomed Hometown), but later taken to and raised at the resident MegaCorp's HQ. When he returns to his birthplace many years later, he has no idea about his connection to Nibelheim, but once he finds it out, he doesn't take the news too well... In Final Fantasy XIII Fang and Vanille do this to their hometown of Oerba, when they turned into Ragnarok at the orders of the fal'Cie; and all the other Pulse societies went with it. The fal'Cie's plot is for the heroes to do this to Cocoon, killing everyone within. The heroes go through with it...and then avert the "killing everyone within" part. |

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power: Waldreg is an inn keeper from Tirharad, native to the Southlands. All of his life, he secretly hoped that Sauron would return to lift up the Southlanders from muck and filth and hid a secret Artifact of Doom belonging to Sauron. When the occasion comes in the form of Adar, he joins forces with him and is secretly charged with carrying on Adar's plan of provoking Orodruin's eruption. Waldreg obeys without question and uses the Artifact of Doom to unlock an ancient mechanism that triggers the destruction of a series of dams, which sends a vast torrent of water streaming down into the Southlands and ultimately deep into Mount Orodruin itself, destroying in the process his own home. | |

In the Malazan Book of the Fallen, High King Kallor first built an empire on the continent of Jacuruku, then razed it to the ground so thoroughly, the remaining earth had to be put into a parallel realm and given thousands of years time so it could heal. And all of that just to spite those people who hated him and called a god from another dimension to drop on his head. | |

Carrie. Unlike the movie adaptation, which didn't have the budget for the full ending, Carrie moves into the town itself after killing her classmates and leaving the survivors to burn to death inside the school. She destroys fire hydrants to prevent anyone from putting out the fires she started, blows up gas stations, and kills several adult citizens who come outside to see what's going on, and by the time she dies, the death toll is well over 400. This also results in Chamberlain becoming a Dying Town as the death of most of their teenage children leads to many citizens just drifting away. | |

Warhammer 40,000 has several examples of the "planetary destruction" variety: Perturabo, primarch of the Iron Warriors, vented centuries of bitterness and frustration on his home planet Olympia after an uprising, almost wiping out the civilian population. Later, he had all life on the surface wiped out after a two-year siege by loyalist Space Marines The Night Haunter, the primarch of the Night Lords, spend his youth as a bloody-handed vigilante cleaning up the streets of his adopted home planet Nostramo by fear. On his eventual return, and seeing how the populace has slipped back into depravity, he uses his fleet to annihilate the entire planet. Angron, primarch of the World Eaters, suffered as a gladiator-slave on the planet Nuceria. When he returned during the Horus Heresy, he and the Word Bearers took revenge by killing the entire population. |

Doctor Who: Davros arranged the apparent extermination of his own species for the sake of the Daleks. They turned on him about five minutes later. As of the revival, the Doctor was only able to end the Last Great Time War by destroying both sides — including the other Time Lords and his home planet Gallifrey. Despite this, the Daleks, The Master, and Davros have managed to survive. He also destroyed Gallifrey in the Eighth Doctor Adventures novel The Ancestor Cell, and, to be fair, it was for a good reason and they were being assholes anyway. He developed Trauma-Induced Amnesia as a result. Then it turned out that the amnesia was in part due to the fact Gallifrey had been kind of stored in his head. How's that for a "brain the size of a planet"? "The Day of the Doctor" depicts the last day of the Time War when the Doctor destroyed Gallifrey. After meeting the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors, the three decide to embark on a radical plan to change their own personal timeline, faking the destruction of Gallifrey by shunting the planet into another universe. In "Spyfall", Gallifrey is destroyed again. This time, for a change, it's the Master who claims the credit. |

Practically every animated adaptation of Mewtwo's backstory includes the image of it wreathed in flames in the remains of the Pokémon Mansion/whatever lab is used to create it, and possibly atop the corpses of those who'd been working there. There's a reason this guy is The Dreaded. |

One (and a half) villain in The Wotch was ostracized by his village of reindeer because he was a were. No, not a werewolf, a harmless were-girl. When he/they came back from a quest for an artifact allowing him/them to control the change, the townsfolk reacted even more violently, leading to an inevitable, but deserved, massacre. The Uricarn Demon killed all the other members of his species. He comments that he probably should have thought it through a bit more, since he didn't discriminate by gender. Cue daydreaming about the time Anne fought him after transforming into a very accurate and very female Uricarn demon. |

In a heroic example, Buffy the Vampire Slayer has, over the years, destroyed her high school gym (it was filled with vampires), her next high school (blown up stopping a giant demon-snake made of Mayor), and finally, her home town of Sunnydale (built on a gateway to Hell, caved in when the good guys destroyed it). | |

In StarCraft II, Vorazun is the one to voice the option to destroy her homeplanet, Shakuras, rather than let it fall to the Zerg. Artanis initially wanted to refuse the idea, but he went along with it, and they detonated the planet with over a billion Zerg on top. | |

In Final Fantasy XIII Fang and Vanille do this to their hometown of Oerba, when they turned into Ragnarok at the orders of the fal'Cie; and all the other Pulse societies went with it. The fal'Cie's plot is for the heroes to do this to Cocoon, killing everyone within. The heroes go through with it...and then avert the "killing everyone within" part. |

Mostly inverted in Saikano, as Chise protects her and Shuji's home town from complete destruction until the very end of the story, when she exterminates all of humanity. | |

The prequel comics and novel to 2007's Transformers movie all reveal, despite otherwise being separate continuities, that it was Optimus Prime, of all people, who launched the AllSpark into space to keep it from Megatron's hands, dooming Cybertron to a slow, lingering death. In the movie itself, Optimus states that he's willing to sacrifice his own life to destroy the AllSpark, if need be. Some characters think it's noble. Others think it's disturbing... In the third film, Bumblebee is the one who destroys the Space Bridge control, resulting in Cybertron's destruction. |

Superman's old foe Brainiac got a new origin: instead of a mad scientist from the planet Colu, he was an intelligent supercomputer from Krypton. When Jor-El shared his fears that the planet was going to explode, Brainiac lied and said Jor-El was wrong while secretly plotting his own escape, because Brainiac realized that if Krypton's council discovered the planet was doomed, they would have put him to work trying to evacuate everyone, a futile gesture that would have doomed Brainiac as well. Being the last holder of knowledge about a whole world appealed to him. In fact, he liked the idea so much he started doing it to other worlds too. | |

Captain Hero in Drawn Together tossed his home planet Zebulon into its sun in the episode "Little Orphan Hero," which was basically a parody of Superman's backstory. | |

In YuYu Hakusho, Hiei was a male fire demon that was born among a female race of ice demons. Males can only be born to ice demons if they were sired by an outside male, which is forbidden. According to the ice demons' beliefs, males bring destruction, so the elders had him thrown off a cliff. This is what caused him to want to destroy the ice demons, but it was subverted in the end. Why? Because when he finally found them, he realized that the ice demons had very pitiful lives, so decided that leaving them alive was a worse punishment. No wonder Hiei has a lot of social problems. Yukina of all people is searching for her brother in an attempt to invoke the trope, believing he'll raze the place to the ground, and once asked Hiei to find him and give him the message not knowing that Hiei is said brother and had already opted for Cruel Mercy. |

In Overlord II, the titular Overlord's hometown of Nordberg is the first town you conquer; you'll either wind up enslaving them all or leaving the entire village as a smouldering heap of wreckage. Players aren't likely to feel sympathy for them, as the Nordberg residents were A.) idiots, B.) treated the young overlord as a pariah and C.) the only sympathetic villager and the Player's childhood friend Kelda joins you because she wants to watch Nordberg burn for what they did. | |

In Carrie, the main character kills everyone at her prom, the two kids who had humiliated her, and her mother after prom night goes horribly, horribly wrong for her. They wanted to have her destroy the town, but didn't have the budget. In the remake, the damage is more severe. | |

Gravity Falls: Bill Cipher was apparently born in the flat second dimension (hence his triangular state), but he thought it was boring, so he 'liberated' it, the same way he's planning on 'liberating' Gravity Falls. However, ambiguously canon material implies he's ultimately regretful of what he did, even if he'd never admit to the fact he alone is responsible for his own despair. | |
