History PapaWolf / FanWorks

** The same goes for Ren and Nora, whom he adopted after saving them from a Grimm attack on their village. [[spoiler:When they are killed during the Siege of Terra, he takes a brief moment to say his final farewells, and then proceeds to [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge rain down ten different kinds of hell on whatever Traitor forces he sees.]] Needless to say, they didn't stand a chance.]]

And this was Kirby's most unsettling line in the fanfic:

** ''Kirby: (after being turned into his own frozen heart beast) …You will be wailing, and gnashing your teeth forever like what you did to my mom!''

* Hades' [[SarcasmMode very measured and restrained reaction]] to his son Nico's disappearance - which involves damning evidence against the House of Life - as declaring war against the magicians. Oh, and he also enlists his brothers Zeus and Poseidon's help to ensure the war would be an ''one-sided slaughter''. Poseidon also has shades of this, agreeing to help Hades in part because he had a history of Egyptians causing misfortunes to his children.

[[AC:''Anime/FullmetalAlchemist'']]

* In ''Fanfic/Class78thWatchesTheFuture'', [[spoiler: [[WholseomeCrossdresser Chihiro Fujisaki]] is pretty much the epitome of NiceGuy, unable to bear the thought of harming a mosquito that bites him because of its family, and he sees Alter Ego, an ArtificialIntelligence of his own design, as his child. That being said, when he sees Hifumi Yamada become an AbhorentAdmirer of the AI while watching the [[VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc future]], he goes into a "mother hen" mode and forbids the Ultimate Fanfic Creator from coming near it in the present day]].

** As in the source material, [[Film/RogueOne Galen Erso]] sabotaged the Death Star to protect his daughter from the Empire and get back at them for separating him from his daughter and [[CrusadingWidower killing his wife]]. He also considers two million people as acceptable collateral damage to kill the people he holds responsible for that situation, namely Tarkin and Orson Krennic... And becomes a full Rebel collaborator once Tarkin points out it was ''Palpatine'' who twisted Krennic in the man who killed his wife and separated him from his daughter.

* [[OriginalCharacter Helena]]'s father in ''Fanfic/FrozenHearts''. While he fell into despair and alcoholism after losing his job at the castle as part of the staff reduction to keep Elsa's powers secret, he springs into action to protect his daughter from someone who tries to take advantage of her, and Helena recalls that at that point, he seemed to be his old self again. Unfortunately, he gets fatally stabbed in the process.

* Jack Kenway in [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10870770/1/Harry-Potter-and-the-Grand-Trainer-Tournament Harry Potter and the Grand Trainer Tournament]] towards his adopted daughter Jasmine. When she was seven her parents were killed during a rally protesting Kanto basically ruling over Johto. That night Jack asks Jasmine what she wants and she says she wants Kanto to hurt. Jack proceeds to declare war on Kanto, ending with his discovering a lost Pokemon Art and blowing up the Kanto Pokemon League. To repeat... he started and won a civil war because the daughter he'd just adopted was crying. No one messes with Jack's little girl.

* Naruto in ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5571816/20/Win-Some-Lose-Some Win Some, Lose Some]],'' a collection of one-shots. Naruto's warning when Kurenai, Hanabi, Ebisu, and Konohamaru find out about his (adoptive) daughter basically amounts to "If you tell anyone about my daughter, I'll kill you. If anyone tries to harm her, I'll kill them. If anyone kills her, I'll burn Konoha to the ground." Turned UpToEleven because the Nanabi is sealed within her, meaning the ''[[EldritchAbomination Kyuubi]]'' is protecting her too.

* While it was established in the prequel books that Pitch was a PapaWolf, the story ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8751000/1/Guardian-of-Light Guardian of Light]]'' takes it UpToEleven. [[spoiler: While he starts out as an evil version of this trope early on, it eventually gets to the stage where he ''jumps off a cliff'' just to save his daughter, Helen.]]

* [[Fanfic/HelluvaDad]]: Striker is fiercely protective over his son Jake and will always put his wellbeing over anything else. He fiercely attacks Travers when he finds the latter trying to kill his son.

* ''FanFic/ConversationsWithACryptid'':

* In ''FanFic/ForgivenessIsTheAttributeOfTheStrong'': All Might is very protective of all his adopted kids.
* ''FanFic/CustodyBattle'': All Might goes berserk when Izuku is in danger.

* [[FanFic/UltimateSleepwalker Sleepwalker]] is deeply torn by angst and loneliness over his being exiled from his home dimension of the Mindscape and trapped in Rick Sheridan's mind. He doesn't have any doubt at all about one thing, though. If you threaten Rick Sheridan or any of Sleepwalker's other close human friends, '''you are in for a world of hurt.'''

[[AC:''FanFic/WithPearlAndRubyGlowing'' -- Children's Media MegaCrossover]]
* [[{{WesternAnimation/Villainous}} Dr Flug]] doesn't fight back when Black Hat beats and rapes him, but on finding out Black Hat molested 5.0.5. (here Flug's human son, named Oso), Flug douses Black Hat in gasoline and lights him on fire.

* In ''FanFic/BackToTheFuturePrequel'', Marty is kidnapped by a vengeful enemy of Doc's, who throws him into an icy lake to drown. Doc subdues the physically bigger enemy and swims two hundred feet to save Marty.

* Skinner, Nemo, and Jekyll all have a tendency in this direction in ''FanFic/ThePrivateDiaryOfElizabethQuatermain''. Jekyll has (eventually) his adopted son, Nemo has his foster daughter, and Skinner has his niece.

* Optimus Prime and Ratchet in ''[[FanFic/ThingsWeDontTellHumans Things We Don't Tell Humans]]''. Optimus is a fan of children, and Elita puts off telling him about how badly Quicksilver was treated because she ''knows'' he'll react badly (he does, and it's a little terrifying). Ratchet tries to pick a fight with a general who dismisses Prowl as just a numbers guy.

* [[FanFic/BlackCrayons Don't mess with Annabelle Lennox]]. Not only would that tick off [[HumansAreWarriors her actual father, Will Lennox]], but it will also anger [[TriggerHappy the Autobot Weapon Specialist]], [[HonoraryUncle Ironhide]]. And probably most of the other Autobots, who are rather fond of her. [[CurbStompBattle Barricade learned this the hard way]].

* In ''[[FanFic/HarrysNewHome Harry's New Home]]'', Snape will go to any lengths to protect his ward Harry, even if it included breaking rules or facing the Dark Lord and Dumbledore (if necessary) to do it. For that matter, Dumbledore does ''not'' like seeing any of his students harmed in any way, especially if it's Harry. In the prequel he gives a casual warning to Snape who earlier in a fit of rage slapped Harry. All in a cheerful tone and a benign smile.

* In ''FanFic/ThreeSlytherinMarauders'' if you try and hurt Harry, Snape will ''end you''... that is if [[BigBrotherInstinct Tom]] doesn't do it first.
* ''FanFic/TheVerySecretDiary'': In ''Disenchanted'', Arthur snaps after Dumbledore reveals that Malfoy was the one gave Ginny the diary. Dumbledore himself feels a touch of anger at Tom for badly traumatizing Ginny.

* ''FanFic/{{Insontis}}'':

* ''FanFic/AmongYou'': In ''like son, like father'', Orange quickly becomes fairly protective of Bean after unofficially adopting him, but the transformation into an Impostor is what ''really'' turns it into this trope. At the climax of the story, although Lime is about to kill everyone else, it’s the moment he threatens ''Bean'' that makes Orange shift into his Impostor form and kill Lime.

* Fanfic/TheShroudedPath has Terra, who forces his way into ''Franchise/SilentHill'''s Otherworld to protect Ven. Later on, when he learns his friends have been captured by the BigBad, he immediately storms the place where they're being held and takes on ''the entire [[{{Cult}} Order]] at once''. He quickly one-ups this by [[spoiler:[[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu beating the Order's God to a pulp]]]].

* ''FanFic/TheLegendOfSpyroANewDawn'': Spyro is pretty protective of his adopted egg, just like [[MamaBear Cynder]], but a much bigger PapaWolf is Ember's father, Blaze. When [[TheDragon the Warden]] has Ember overpowered in their battle, Blaze blasts him, despite [[AgonyBeam the Warden's collar inflicting debilitating pain]] on any of the cursed slaves who attacks or touches him in anyway. Once [[spoiler:the Warden's collar is destroyed and the curse is broken]], Blaze tears through the cage holding him and [[FoeTossingCharge an entire mob of]] [[EliteMooks Warrior Gargoyles]] to get his claws in the Warden.

[[folder: Web Comic]]

* ''FanFic/FacingTheFutureSeries'': [[BumblingDad Jack]], while still a BunglingInventor, becomes a very dangerous opponent when you mess with his family, as in canon. [[spoiler: He went ballistic when he learned about Vlad's attempt to clone Danny. However, he quickly took in Danielle, the product of Vlad's twisted experiment, as his own kin, even laying siege to the Guys in White for kidnapping her]].

* ''FanFic/PonyPOVSeries'':

* ''FanFic/RealityChecksNyxverse:'' Twilight's LoveInterest, Ink Spot, becomes this to Nyx by the time he and Twilight get married. Best exemplified when he fights off Tirek to protect her, and later warns Discord -- in all seriousness -- that if Tirek's rampage, which is to blame on Discord's actions, have permanently harmed Nyx in any way, he won't need his magic to tie Discord's neck into a knot.
* ''FanFic/TheLifeOfAWantedChangeling:'' Bugze may be an unlucky, clumsy, and unskilled changeling, but threaten his daughter Nightshade and he's capable of delivering a CurbStompBattle to anypony from platoons of Royal Guard to ''Princess Celestia herself''
* ''FanFic/EscapeFromTheMoon'': In the sequel ''The Mare From the Moon'', Discord is ''very'' protective of Fluttershy, and makes it very clear to Spliced that he knows of her past with experimental plagues and what will happen if she harms Fluttershy or anypony else in this world with them.

* In ''Fanfic/Class78thWatchesTheFuture'', [[spoiler: [[WholseomeCrossdresser Chihiro Fujisaki]] is pretty much the epitome of NiceGuy, unable to bear the thought of harming a mosquito that bites him because of its family, and he sees Alter Ego, an ArtificialIntelligence of his own design, as his child. That being, when he sees Hifumi Yamada become an AbhorentAdmirer of the AI while watching the [[VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc future]], he goes into a "mother hen" mode and forbids the Ultimate Fanfic Creator from coming near it in the present day]].

* Perturabo made Penny Polendina and regards her as nothing less than his own daughter and loves her very dearly. Like any good father, he reacts [[BerserkButton poorly]] to anyone that means her harm and will not care who they are. At one point, Leman Russ demands to face her in a trial by combat to see whether or not she's a soulless machine that the Imperium has been instructed to destroy any vestige of. If Russ decides that she is a threat to the Imperium, then he makes it clear that he will do his duty to ensure that doesn't happen. Perturabo was ready to kill his fellow Primarch and damn the consequences if he hadn't been talked down by Glynda, Winter and Cinder.

* Betelgeuse is this for Lydia. Following the events of the movie, he - regretting certain past actions - effectively adopts her as his {{protectorate}}, and by the time of the fic they are LikeBrotherAndSister. He calls her "my girl" and has a tendency to [[BerserkButton go ballistic]] if anyone even thinks about hurting her.

* In ''[[FanFic/HarrysNewHome Harry's New Home]]'', Snape will go to any lengths to protect his ward Harry, even if it included breaking rules or facing the Dark Lord and Dumbledore (if necessary) to do it. For that matter, Dumbledore does ''not'' like seeing any of his students harmed in any way, especially if it's Harry. His BerserkButton is pressed when he finds out Umbridge used a Blood Quill on Harry and in the prequel, he gives a casual warning to Snape who earlier in a fit of rage slapped Harry. All in a cheerful tone and a benign smile.

* In ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4949127/1/Deterioration_of_Reason Deterioration of Reason]]'', OC!Gabriel was already shown to be [[BigBrotherInstinct a protective big brother]] over Castiel and his BerserkButton is if any harm comes to Castiel. But when the demon Belial, who had kidnapped and tortured Castiel, implied that he [[RapeAsDrama did something else]] to Castiel, not only does Gabriel go into TranquilFury, but it's revealed that '''God Himself''' has had enough.

[[AC:''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'']]
* [[spoiler:Megatron is very protective of Sheba]] in Creator/{{Shebakoby}}'s fanfic series ''Fanfic/PrisonerOfDestiny'', ''Fanfic/TheBigCaptureOf19992006'', and [[BerserkButton particularly part 7]] of the collaborative ''Fanfic/ShadowOfTheGuardian'' co-written by Creator/ConveyusPrime.

* Thor. He has so far terrified the Dursleys and only narrowly restrained himself from incinerating them (because what Tony had planned was more humiliating and excruciatingly painful), Snape, explaining exactly who he is, what he is capable of and what he will do if Snape even ''looks'' the wrong way at Harry and sent [[HumanoidAbomination Gravemoss]] running for his life with one shot after Thor caught up with him (because Gravemoss had orchestrated Harry's kidnapping by the Disir. While Harry managed to IndyPloy his way out of trouble, Thor was Not Pleased). Gravemoss, bear in mind, is a PhysicalGod who had previously killed Sif with minimal effort (she got better), regarded losing an arm as a mild annoyance (he grew it back) and tanked Harry Dresden's [[CastFromHitPoints Death Curse]], which had blasted him over 500 miles from Paris to the North Sea, as well as being a mystical powerhouse on par with Loki. Thor sent him running for his life.
* Odin. He may have made mistakes, but holy crap, you do not want to be in Thanos' shoes when the Allfather catches up to him, not after what happened to Loki (while Loki's madness was his own and, as acknowledged by Loki himself, his responsibility, Thanos was not exactly kind to him).
** In a direct example, when Chthon, an Elder God, threatens his family in chapter 77, the response [[WrestlerInAllOfUs is a simplified Facebuster.]]
** And in the sequel, when the Red Room [[spoiler: kidnap Harry]], Odin responds by unleashing TheScourgeOfGod on Russia.
** Afterwards, the Council Elite of Skyfathers, each one nearly as powerful as Odin, are considering binding or killing Harry because of the threat he potentially represents as [[spoiler: the Dark Phoenix]], he goes to the meeting and makes it entirely clear that if they want to lay a finger on his grandson, they are going to have to go through him to do it.
* The Avengers in general are this to Harry, even after he becomes more than capable of looking after himself. Loki does not take kindly to the thought of his nephew being interfered with, warning Albus Dumbledore that while he, Loki, notes and approves of his plans, he had better tread carefully where Harry is concerned. Clint treats Harry like a little brother and when he's kidnapped, says that he wants to teach Harry to shoot. And he will. With a practical demonstration. And the Hulk... well. He likes Harry. As Bruce puts it, 'We will find Harry. And Hulk will smash.'
** And after Harry has a [[TraumaCongaLine painful]] run-in with the Red Room in the sequel, Loki's primary response, aided by Clint, Natasha, and Bucky, is to quietly and methodically track down and murder every single Red Room Agent they can find, draining the knowledge of their senior officers from the mind of each Agent so he can work his way up their chain of command, then back down again.

* We don't know much about [[WildCard Stephen Strange]], prior to his OriginsEpisode in chapter 20 of ''Ghosts of the Past''. But one of the things that ''is'' widely known is that when the White Council came for a thirteen year old Wanda, judging her too dangerous to live after [[RealityWarper her powers]] went haywire, he challenged them to a duel. ''All'' of them. This is an organization numbering about two thousand Wizards, the most powerful 1% of wandless practitioners on the planet, led by the seven members of the Senior Council. These are seven wizards, all centuries old, who can do fun things like pull satellites out of orbit and drop them on your house with pinpoint precision, while [[AsskickingEqualsAuthority the Merlin]] can stonewall an army of [[OurVampiresAreDifferent Red Court vampires]] and [[EldritchAbomination Outsiders]] with a single on the fly ward. Combined, they are a bona fide hyperpower and less a collective of magical beings, more a force of nature, one entirely unfazed by the prospect of taking on Dumbledore, Charles Xavier, and Magneto, at once. But when Strange threw down the gauntlet, ''they backed the hell down''. Part of that was probably Strange's [[MagnificentBastard sheer]] [[LivingLegend reputation]]... but he ''earned'' that reputation. All told, one does not mess with the student of the Sorcerer Supreme.
* When Coulson recruits Harry Dresden to track down the ''veidrdraugar'' and their Master, Dresden is reluctant because he knows very well that he's out of his depth - one of these creatures nearly ripped Loki's throat out, after all, and their Master is an Omega Class threat, never mind the Darkhold, which said Master possesses. Then he finds out that they killed children and takes the case, harshly telling his apprentice, Bruce Wayne, to get out (because Bruce is a bit too nosy for his own good and would end up dead or worse if he got involved). Dresden does not tolerate children being hurt or put in danger.
** A few chapters later, Gravemoss utterly dismisses Dresden and rips out Sif's heart with his bare hand. Dresden responds by [[spoiler: unleashing his Death Curse]]. This is under Paris. A few moments later, a vast column of fire about a thousand feet high erupts over the Paris skyline and Gravemoss lands in the North Sea, somewhere off the east coast of Britain. And as a bonus, he incinerates several dozen of the ''veidrdraugr'' as a ''side effect''.
