* [[Characters/ClassicalMythology Heracles]] in Myth/GreekMythology did this a ''lot''. Because he [[DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength didn't know his own strength]], [[BlessedWithSuck he was always accidentally killing or severely maiming people]]. At one point this got so bad that the citizens of Athens refused to accept him into the city until his buddy/cousin Theseus vouched for him. [[IAmAMonster Hercules, however, kept trying to convince his friend that the citizens were right]]. In fact his famous twelve labors were atonement for when he killed his wife and children (though to be fair it was because [[BrainwashedAndCrazy Hera cursed him with temporary insanity]]). Another time he was forced to work as a man-servant for a woman for several years. While wearing a dress.

* ''Literature/TheBookOfMormon'':
** Alma the Younger most famously, but the sons of Mosiah (his companions) also. They are initially mentioned in the narrative as unbelievers who go around disrupting the church and leading people away, until they are rebuked by an angel and undergo a group HeelFaceTurn -- after which they dedicate their lives to admitting their mistakes, repairing the damage they wrought, and preaching repentance, even going on a long and dangerous mission to preach to the hostile Lamanites.
** Converted Lamanites often felt this way.
*** The people of Ammon, acutely aware of their history of violence, [[ActualPacifist swear that they will never shed blood again]], being willing to die rather than continue to hurt anyone else.
*** Later groups of converted Lamanites actually move en masse out of lands they'd conquered so the Nephites can return.
