10	[[caption-width-right:250:A crafty, cruel, and cunning villain. [[BaitAndSwitchComparison Just like her father]].]]
11
12	->''"Rather than simply being an attractive stage prop, make sure that you know every detail of the running of the Evil Empire, so that if anything unpleasant happens to Daddy, the transition of power will go smoothly. Then make sure that something unpleasant happens to Daddy."''
13	-->-- #14. of '''the [[JustForFun/TheUniversalGenreSavvyGuide guide]] for the [[http://www.worldconquer.org/evil_overlord.html#Anchor-Tips-23240 "Wicked but Beautiful Daughter"]]'''
14
15	The EvilCounterpart of DaddysGirl. She's the daughter/niece/granddaughter/etc of an EvilOverlord, who shares said EvilOverlord's {{ambition\|IsEvil}}, cunning, and cruelty. She could be anything from a simple SpoiledBrat to an Overlord in waiting. She's also likely to be a [[GratuitousPrincess Princess]] (since [[GarnishingTheStory even villainy is improved with that]]), although she will still prefer wearing [[EvilWearsBlack black]] or dark colors over [[PrincessesPreferPink pink]].
16
17	Viewers should neither expect her to be TheIngenue nor expect a HighHeelFaceTurn from her, even if [[VillainessesWantHeroes she falls for the hero]]. That would more be her just wanting him for herself than willingly joining his side; she'll want ''him'' to [[FaceHeelTurn willingly join]] ''her'' side (and his refusal is likely to inspire WomanScorned, however little reason she had to believe that he might accept).
18
19	She is more likely to be a DarkActionGirl than a DarkMagicalGirl, because the latter has a high chance of becoming good after her MagicalGirl counterpart [[DefeatMeansFriendship defeats her in combat]] or otherwise convinces her to switch sides with ThePowerOfFriendship. On the other hand, she is prone to RevengeByProxy subjected by an AntiHero in a darker setting.
20
21	She might [[EnemyMine team up with the heroes]], but only for the same reason any other [[TheDragon dragon]] would team up with them. [[StatusQuoIsGod Then it's enemies again.]]
22
23	If she's above a certain age, [[SexyVillainsChasteHeroes she is going to be hot]], often [[EvilIsCool a cooler character than the female lead]], and [[SensibleHeroesSkimpyVillains might wear less]]. If the bad guys are the YellowPeril or otherwise "Asian-themed", expect her to be a DragonLady.
24
25	If her father is defeated, [[AvengingTheVillain she will be the one doing the avenging.]] On the other hand, she might get impatient waiting for Mommy and Daddy to die so she can take their place. In this case, she might decide to become a SelfMadeOrphan and TheUsurper all at once. In the meantime, mom or dad might give her a first rate education by sending her to the AcademyOfEvil. If it turns out her EvilParentsWantGoodKids, expect a disappointment. To correct this [[VillainousLineage acquired morality]] they may send her to a SuperheroSchool.
26
27
28	Compare MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter (who may or may not be evil), TheEvilPrince, ProtectedByAChild, and EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas.
29
30	Contrast PrincessClassic, DefectingForLove, EvilParentsWantGoodKids, and MafiaPrincess (unless, of course, she's being groomed to take over the family business). SisterTrope to OverlordJr (perhaps literally if both characters exist in the story) and VillainousMotherSonDuo.

33	----
34	!!Examples:
35
36	[[foldercontrol]]
37
38	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
39	* ''Literature/ACertainMagicalIndex'': We're not entirely sure if [[spoiler:Amata Kihara]] is [[spoiler:Telestina Lifeline's father]] or if Gensei Kihara had another son, but they're both him and [[spoiler:Telestina]] really fits this trope well. [[EvilLaugh Really, really well]].
40	* She's not his daughter, but [[BigBad the Millennium Earl]] and [[LittleMissBadass Road Kamelot]] of ''Manga/DGrayMan'' behave like this. She also behaves like this with her real father. But it's really odd since [[spoiler:she's older than he is..]].
41	* Inverted in ''Anime/{{Dangaioh}}''. [[spoiler:Pai Thunder, the Big Girl from the FiveManBand, was the daughter of BigBad Garimoth and had a FaceHeelTurn once she recovered her memories. But when Garimoth told her to kill her teammate Roll before taking her back, Pai rebelled and rejoined the group.]]
42	* ''Anime/DokiDokiPrettyCure'' has a very complicated example in Regina, the daughter of King Jikochuu. On one hand, the villains, herself included, are powered by selfishness (it's kinda in the name; "Jikochuu" (''selfish'') isn't just his name but the whole monster race) and have it as their foremost trait, and the king can force this part of her to become dominant. On the other hand, Regina learned to love as she was befriended and taught about humanity by the heroes. On the ''other'' other hand, her father is who she loves most of all. This keeps her very conflicted and going through the HeelFaceRevolvingDoor. There's one point with the heroes trying to awaken her good side and seeming to succeed, and she goes from her [[ColourCodedForYourConvenience evil colors to her good colors]] and ''keeps on attacking,'' going from doing it ForTheEvulz to doing it for her father.
43	* ''Anime/EurekaSeven'': Anemone is very much this trope towards her commander [[BigBad Dewey Novak]], with a dash of {{Yandere}} thrown in for good measure. Unlike most, she [[spoiler: does make a HeelFaceTurn in the end, after she realizes just HOW depraved Dewey is, how he admitted to her that she's another expendable pawn in his grand scheme after going through the entire series treating her with extra special attention and "Love", and [[LoveRedeems Dominic's love for her changes her for the better]]]].
44	* Subverted in ''Manga/FlameOfRecca'': Renge thinks she's this to the BigBad, but in actuality, [[spoiler:he kept her around just so he could devour her to be immune to Kurei and Recca's flames]].
45	* One of the stories adapted in ''Anime/GrimmsFairyTaleClassics'' is [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donkey_Cabbages "The Magic Heart"/"Donkey Cabbages"]], where a WickedWitch is aided in her plans against the huntsman Frederick by her beautiful daughter, Lisbeth. [[spoiler:[[TheDogBitesBack It fails. Epically]].]]
46	* ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'':
47	** ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'': She's far from childish or spoiled, but Princess Kycilia Zabi still fits the trope, sharing her father Degwin's philosophy and remaining loyal to him [[spoiler:even after his death]]. In fact, her care for him is one of her few redeeming qualities.
48	** Mariemaia Barton from the ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing'' OVA. She is (allegedly) the illegitimate daughter of Treize Kushrenada and a nurse. She tries to TakeOverTheWorld [[TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior at the age of eight]], "the way her father would have wanted."[[spoiler:Some evidence, however, suggests that she is not Treize's daughter at all, but just a random girl found and groomed by [[BigBad Dekim]] to assume the role.]]
49	*** Treize's daughter or not, the ultimate irony is that Kushrenada was more of a WellIntentionedExtremist who ultimately believed in peace, while Mariemaia knowingly tried to start another war just after a rather devastating one had finally wrapped up.
50	* [[spoiler:Mathilda Toulonchamp]] from ''Manga/HonooNoAlpenRose'', willing accomplice to her ManipulativeBastard father [[spoiler: in his BatmanGambit to manipulate Jeudi's maternal family. Averted by her older sister Madeleine, though. And later, Mathilda herself starts backing off, since she realizes she's in ''deep shit'' after their accomplice fails to kill Jeudi and such a situation scares the crap out of her]].
51	* ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha'':
52	** [[DarkMagicalGirl Fate Testarossa]] is the daughter of [[MadScientist Precia]], the first season's BigBad. While Fate did everything to make her mother happy, including trying to gather the [[MacGuffin 21 Jewel Seeds]], Precia just yelled at her and punished her with [[ATasteOfTheLash whip slaps]] or with ElectricTorture. The reason why Precia treats her like that was that [[spoiler:Fate was actually a failed clone and ReplacementGoldfish of her late and real daughter Alicia]]. For Precia, Fate was just a tool to accomplish her goal: [[spoiler:going to Al Hazard and finding a method to revive Alicia]].
53	** The [[Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaStrikerS third season's]] BigBad [[MadScientist Jail Scaglietti]] has ''twelve'' "daughters". All of them are [[{{Cyborg}} Combat Cyborgs]] created by him, and all of them treats him as their father, even the ones who have underwent a HeelFaceTurn. Eight of them qualify as [[MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughters]], since seven of them made a HeelFaceTurn in the end, while the eighth stays with one of the true four Daddy's Little Villains.
54	** [[spoiler:Runessa Magnus]] from ''AudioPlay/StrikersSoundStageX'' is this to Tredia Graze. In fact, [[spoiler:''she'' is the BigBad while Tredia is the GreaterScopeVillain]] and carries all of his motivations.
55	* In ''Anime/MyHime'', [[spoiler:Alyssa's most important person, even more than her robotic bodyguard and companion Miyu, is her "father," the Searrs president]].
56	* A reveal in ''Manga/OnePiece'' firmly sets [[spoiler:Charlotte Pudding]] as this for [[spoiler:her mother, Charlotte "Big Mom" Linlin]]. The girl claims to be her horrible [[spoiler:mom]]'s favorite child and is just as terrible, [[spoiler:only able to hide it MUCH better, [[BitchInSheepsClothing making herself look sweet and gentle]] until it's time to attack]]. It turns out there's a huge reason for it: [[spoiler:Pudding possesses a ThirdEye, which according to Big Mom, should help her read the Poneglyphs' content without understanding the language, like how Roger used his mysterious ability of "hearing the voices of all things" to read Poneglyphs. Plus [[AbusiveParents she psychologically abused Pudding]] [[HarmfulToMinors ever since she was a little kid]], by endlessly mocking her ThirdEye and how it looked]].
57	* Rue from ''Anime/PrincessTutu'' is a normal ballet student until she becomes [[spoiler:her alter ego, Princess Kraehe. Later it's revealed that the BigBad Raven kidnapped her as a baby. Meaning he'd lied to her about her being HIS daughter]]. The Raven is definitely ''not'' going to win the "father of the year" award.
58	[[/folder]]
59
60	[[folder:Comic Books]]
61	* ''ComicBook/AllOutAvengers'': The first issue's villain is Arrok the Seventh, queen of the Sinnarian Empire. Her father was the BigBad of the ''Black Order'' series, published a few years earlier -- and now he's dead she's following in his footsteps. Not only is she just as malevolent, she's also using similar tactics (albeit on a smaller scale), with the mutagenic 'Bow of Attican' replacing the world-wrecking 'Bow of Gabriel' her father acquired.
62	* Talia al Ghul from ''ComicBook/{{Batman}}'', daughter of Ra's al Ghul. She often flip-flops between loyalty to her father and to her "beloved". The page image shows Talia from ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'', though [[spoiler:by that point, her father [[GrandTheftMe hijacked her body]]]].
63	** There's also Talia's sister, Nyssa, who lacked any of Talia's loyalty issues by being emotionally numb (losing everyone you loved and being horrifically tortured/experimented on while interned in a concentration camp can do that sometimes) and trying to [[TheStarscream Starscream]] her dad and become leader of the League of Assassins. Don't feel bad for not having heard of her: [[StatusQuoIsGod the coup didn't last]] and [[DroppedABridgeOnHim neither did she]].
64	* PlayedForDrama in ''ComicBook/BatmanBeyondTheWhiteKnight''. Everyone knows that Bryce and Jackie Quinzel are the children of [[Characters/BatmanTheJoker The Joker]]. While Bryce passes off as normal, Jackie suffers from a lot of angst over it, presuming that she's expected to be "more like Joker", a problem only compounded by bullies at school rubbing it in her face. Because of this, [[ThenLetMeBeEvil she starts dressing like Joker and behaves like a delinquent]].
65	* Sybil Mayhew, daughter of ''ComicBook/{{Blackhawk}}'''s EvilCounterpart Death Mayhew, who follows in her father's footsteps after his death.
66	* ''ComicBook/CaptainAmerica'': Sin, the Red Skull's completely AxCrazy daughter. [[UglyGuysHotDaughter She was a looker]] until [[spoiler:the final issue of ''Captain America: Reborn'', in which she gets an extreme makeover courtesy of an exploding mecha. She truly was [[ButterFace her father's daughter]] at least until Kobik repairs her face]].
67	* Winnowill from ''ComicBook/ElfQuest'' was vaguely {{retcon}}ned to be Haken's daughter, though the hinting started pretty early on in the series. She really takes after him... and once she starts living inside Rayek's mind, she flesh-shapes his body to look exactly like her father's.
68	* In ''ComicBook/{{Empire}}'', Golgoth, supreme villainous overlord of the world, has only one joy in life: his sweet, innocent daughter. Only [[spoiler:she's not as innocent as he thinks, as she's been sleeping with one of his lieutenants and eventually convinces him to betray her dad for her. Then it turns out she had been manipulating the guy all along, intentionally setting him up to be caught and executed just for her own amusement, and the whole thing was just a way of expressing her disturbing obsessive feelings toward her father]]. Even worse, [[spoiler:she poisoned her own mother and made it look like a suicide because she felt she was making Golgoth soft]].
69	* ''ComicBook/FreddyVsJasonVsAsh'': Freddy Krueger's daughter Kathryn a.k.a. [[spoiler:Maggie Burroughs]] has [[FallenHero fallen to the dark side]] and is now working with her father. Not only that, she's become a daddy's girl in [[ParentalIncest all the wrong ways]]...
70	* In ''ComicBook/TheFurtherAdventuresOfIndianaJones'' #13, one of Dr. Jones' more trouble-prone female students turns out to be the daughter of a notorious mobster and a willing participant in his criminal schemes, and at least some of her klutziness is an act intended to keep Indy distracted from what her father is doing.
71	* ''ComicBook/ItTakesAWizard'': [[spoiler:The [[DamselInDistress little girl]] the CorruptCorporateExecutive valued so much that he busted the hero out of his impending death sentence so he could rescue her? Not only did she join the BigBad in the [[BigAppleSauce wasteland of Manhattan]], her father supported her decision to do so. Sending the hero on this mission was all part of a grand EvilPlan -- to [[GaiasVengeance avenge Gaia]] by [[ImAHumanitarian dethroning humanity from its place at the top of the food chain]].]]
72	* The ''ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica'' have had to deal with two of these. First is the daughter of the Mist, the archenemy of the original Starman, who took her father's place after his death. The second is the appropriately named Junior, daughter of the first [[ComicBook/SecretSix Ragdoll]].
73	* ''ComicBook/NewGods'': Darkseid has a daughter named Grail. She's his favorite child ([[AbusiveParents for all that’s worth]]), and also the one who takes after him the most.
74	* ''ComicBook/{{Planetary}}'': Flashbacks explains how Doc Brass fought mysterious [[LawyerFriendlyCameo Fu Manchu-like Hark]] and eventually convinced him to join the side of the good guys. Hark's daughter Anna, however, had been raised as a villain, survived her father and became a thorn in the heroes' side.
75	%%* Alexandria von Fogg from ''ComicBook/PS238''.%%Administrivia/ZeroContextExample
76	* Darla Aquista from ''ComicBook/Robin1993'' started out as a MafiaPrincess who wanted to be involved in her daddy's business but [[EvilParentsWantGoodKids he wanted to shelter her from that life]]. After she was "adopted" and given powers by the the super-villain Johnny Warlock she delved right into acting as a super-powered murderer on his behalf, even taking up the name "Warlock's Daughter". A little while later, though, she joined the supernatural hero team Shadowpact.
77	* ''ComicBook/{{Shazam}}'' has a good example of the difference between this and MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter. Captain Marvel's archenemy Sivana has four kids. Two of them are [[MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter beautiful and good, siding with Captain Marvel]], while his other two children are ugly and evil like him. Though in some appearances, his beautiful children were bad as well.
78	* In ''ComicBook/SpiderGirl'', we get a DistaffCounterpart of Electro ([[BerserkButton don't call her Electra just because she looks like Electro]]; her name is ''[[InsistentTerminology Aftershock]],'' dammit!) who wants to follow in her father's footsteps, but by now, Electro has long since retired and doesn't want his daughter making the mistakes he did when he was her age. Subverted with a different character named Aftershock in the main Franchise/MarvelUniverse continuity, who claims to be Electro's daughter who had inherited his powers. When confronted about it, Electro points out that she's around seventeen and [[ComicBookTime he's had powers only for thirteen years]]. [[spoiler:It turns out that she was brainwashed into believing herelf to be his daughter.]]
79	* ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'': Ana Kravinoff, the daughter of Kraven the Hunter, has followed in her father's footsteps despite only being [[LittleMissBadass 12]].
80	* ''ComicBook/TheSuperiorFoesOfSpiderMan'' has somehow managed to combine this with EvilParentsWantGoodKids. Beetle's father [[spoiler:Tombstone]] is proud that his daughter wants to be a criminal, but he doesn't approve of her being a supervillain; he believes that [[CutLexLuthorACheck she'll be able to steal much more as a lawyer]].
81	* ''ComicBook/{{Superman}}'':
82	** Superman's sister-in-law Lucy Lane became a supervillain in ''ComicBook/WhoIsSuperwoman'' in order to help her father General Sam Lane destroy Superman and [[ComicBook/NewKrypton the other Kryptonians]].
83	** In ''ComicBook/AllStarSuperman'', Lex Luthor has a niece, [[PerkyGoth Nastalthia]], who's eighteen, [[{{Omniglot}} speaks 30 languages]] and wants to conquer the world. She also appeared in MediaNotes/{{the Bronze Age\|OfComicBooks}} ''ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'' comics and was nicknamed Nasty.
84	* ''ComicBook/TeenTitans'':
85	** Played with for Duela Dent, who introduced herself as the Joker's Daughter in the 1970s, but flip-flopped between heroism and villainy; her first "evil" acts being elaborate pranks (which included pretending to be the daughter of other Bat-villains) meant to get Robin's attention so he could induct her into the Teen Titans, as a way to turn over a new leaf, but her own craziness meant she remained trapped in the HeelFaceRevolvingDoor (when the writers bothered to remember her, that is). It would eventually be revealed that she ''is'' indeed the Joker's Daughter... but to the Joker from pre-''ComicBook/New52'' [[MirrorUniverse Earth-3]], a.k.a. the Jokester, who was a hero, and her looniness is because she was constantly and subconsciously universe-hopping.
86	** Trigon ''wants'' his daughter Raven to be this. How well he succeeds is DependingOnTheWriter. Most of the time, she resists... It's when she ''can't'' that her teammates are screwed. In ''ComicBook/New52'', Raven [[AdaptationalVillainy was reintroduced as a villain]] and therefore ''is'' this, willingly.
87	* One short strip from ''ComicBook/ThargsFutureShocks'' is about a goth chick who leads a bunch of {{Vampire Vannabe}}s to the CreepyCemetery so that her vampire father can eat them. Tharg commends their family values.
88	* ''ComicBook/XMen'':
89	** Magneto's daughter the Scarlet Witch is an inverted example; she was originally a villain and one of the original Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, as was his son Quicksilver, but their hearts weren't in it, and they eventually turned against him. They had been [[ComicBook/TheAvengers Avengers]] for ''quite'' some time before realizing who their father is (and he didn't know, either).
90	** Mastermind had two daughters with [[MasterOfIllusion similar powers]] who have been villainesses. The younger one, Regan, even briefly joined the X-Men under the guise of a HeelFaceTurn before showing her [[BeneathTheMask true colors]].
91	[[/folder]]
92
93	[[folder:Comic Strips]]
94	* Angel Top, the daughter of the infamous hitman Flattop from the ''ComicStrip/DickTracy'' comics.
95	* Princess Aura in the original ''ComicStrip/FlashGordon'' comic was an early example, though as the stories progressed she became more of a RebelliousPrincess. As [[TheEmperor Ming the Merciless's]] daughter and only child, she helped him hunt the heroes, and even commanded military forces for him occasionally. She does have a soft spot for Flash Gordon out of attraction to him, and is Prince Barin's lover in some continuities.
96	[[/folder]]
97
98	[[folder:Fan Works]]
99	* [[spoiler:Malvina Devereaux]] in ''Fanfic/TheAwakeningOfAMagus'' comes from a Death Eater family... and has the mindset and evil genius enough to impress Voldemort [[spoiler:at the age of fourteen]].
100	* The fanmade song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xA9dFZJtQWc "Daddy Discord"]], which [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation interprets]] the background character Screwball as one of these (with a healthy side dose of CreepyChild who [[CreepyChildrenSinging sings]] [[VillainSong evilly]]) in relation to [[GodOfEvil her creator]].
101	-->'''Cause you... are my daddy Discord... and I... am a piece of you.''
102	* In [[https://www.deviantart.com/silfofinadragon SilfofinaDragon]]'s ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara'' fanfic ''Finally Home'', the late UsefulNotes/ToyotomiHideyoshi fathers Kagehime, a [[YouKilledMyFather vengeful]] [[WickedWitch witch]].
103	* In the ''WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheGuardians'' fic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8751000/1/Guardian-of-Light Guardian of Light]]'', Pitch ''wants'' his daughter to be this. She has other ideas.
104	* ''ComicBook/{{Shazam}}'' fanfiction ''Fanfic/HereThereBeMonsters'' has [[MadScientist Dr. Sivana]]'s daughter Georgia, who is a bigger psychopath than his father, to the point Sivana has to restrain her from killing the Marvel Family with her bare hands.
105	%%* Princess Lotora from ''[[http://fanfiction.wikia.com/wiki/Hottie_3:_The_Best_Fan_Fic_in_the_World Hottie 3: The Best Fan Fic in the World]]''.
106	%%* ''Fanfic/JewelOfDarkness'': [[VillainProtagonist Raven/Midnight]] to Slade.
107	* In the ''Fanfic/PonyPOVSeries'':
108	** The [[BadFuture Epilogue timeline]] version of [[AxCrazy Fluttercruel]] is this to [[BigBad Discord]], due to being his creation. Surprisingly, Discord [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes cares about her too]], to the point that he pulls her back from the FinalBattle with [[HeroAntagonist Queen Cadence]] because he's worried she might get hurt. [[spoiler: When she is seemingly killed by Rarity when the heroes [[StormingTheCastle storm the castle]], he slips into a VillainousBSOD, and when ''he'' is mortally wounded, she has a full-blown VillainousBreakdown.]]
109	** [[spoiler: Discord's little sister Rancor is likewise quite close to their [[EldritchAbomination Father, Havoc]]. Though Havoc was only the 'villain' for the Alicorn/Draconequi War and [[AntiVillain only wanted to protect his family after they were damaged by the destruction of the Windigos.]] Celestia just had an understandably skewed view of him due to that war, and his Avatar went berserk against his will at the end of it. Otherwise, he's actually [[BigGood acting in mortal life's best interests,]] even if it's in a GoodIsNotNice fashion.]]
110	** [[spoiler:The mainline Discord 'adopts' the now Nightmare Diamond Tiara as his daughter and treats her this way, though her mentality following her transformation makes her not quite return it properly.]]
111	* ''Fanfic/RWBYScars'' presents Roman and Neo as this. Roman is a high-ranking criminal involved with the illegal Dust trade and he'd do anything for his daughter Neo. Neo is very attached to her father as well. The two act as a ParentChildTeam, though it's implied that Roman isn't comfortable with how AxCrazy his daughter is.
112	* In ''Fanfic/ShadowsAwakening'', this is how Tarakudo views [[EnemyWithin the Queen of the Shadowkhan]] (much to her annoyance).
113	* One of the weirdest examples of this Trope occurred in Lorelei's backstory in ''Fanfic/ShadowchasersTorment''. Her father was a [[EvilSorcerer Doomdreamer]], a senior member of the [[ReligionOfEvil Cult of Tharizdun]]. When an omen from his god foretold that any disciple he took would betray him, he decided to raise his own offspring as one, summoning a [[SuccubiAndIncubi succubus]] for the express purpose of carrying his child, and then training his daughter almost since infancy. While Lorelei became an incredibly powerful Doomdreamer in her own right, her father didn't escape the prophecy; ''she'' betrayed him and in one of the worst ways, [[ForcedTransformation turning him into a cat]] and them keeping him like a pet. Despite this, he had absolutely no regrets - [[SoProudOfYou she turned out just the way he had wanted his daughter to be.]] (Of course, Doomdreamers are all ''[[AxCrazy completely]]'' [[AxCrazy insane...]]
114	* The ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' collective fan character Eggatha plays this role for series antagonist Dr. Eggman. While her actual origin varies (her being a robot he made or her being his blood relative), she essentially fulfills the role of a daughter figure for Eggman and also shares his vast intelligence, hot head, and disdain for Sonic.
115	* ''Fanfic/TotalDramaLegacy'' has Emilia, the daughter of Alejandro (the BigBad of ''[[WesternAnimation/TotalDrama Total Drama: World Tour]]''. She's just as manipulative and ruthless as he is.
116	[[/folder]]
117
118	[[folder:Films -- Animated]]
119	* Princess of ''WesternAnimation/AlphaAndOmega 2: A Howl-iday Adventure'' is a subversion. While Princess is loyal to her father [[BigBad King]] and serves as his [[TheDragon Dragon]], it becomes clear that she's an AntiVillain to his CardCarryingVillain. [[spoiler:Even moreso in the climax when, thanks to [[MoralityPet Runt]] bringing out more of her good side, Princess defies King's final attack order and retreats.]]
120	* Princess Aura in ''WesternAnimation/FlashGordon1979'', though her attraction towards Flash may affect her judgement.
121	[[/folder]]
122
123	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
124	* ''Film/AssassinsCreed2016'': Sophia Rikkin cooperates with her father in their quest for the Eden Apple of Granada, although she wants to "cure aggression" rather than TakeOverTheWorld it still boils down to TheEvilsOfFreeWill.
125	* In ''Film/BulletproofMonk'', Nina, who pretends to be a human rights activist, is the granddaughter of the BigBad Nazi, who has been chasing the titular monk since UsefulNotes/WorldWarII. She later tries to seduce the monk and has a DesignatedGirlFight with Jade. She's enough of a badass that she has no problem breaking into a mansion owned by a [[TheMafiya Russian mobster]].
126	* Red Skull's daughter in ''Film/CaptainAmerica1990'' has a prominent role as her father's henchwoman, assassin and right hand.
127	* ''Film/ConanTheBarbarian2011'': Marique to Khalar Zym. He's the BigBad while she's his [[TheDragon loyal lieutenant]] and daughter, being very close with her father. She takes it to [[VillainousIncest extremely creepy lengths]] though.
128	* ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'': Bane with Talia al Ghul [[spoiler:a.k.a. Miranda Tate]], who wants to finish her dad's EvilPlan because he was killed in [[Film/BatmanBegins the first movie]].
129	* ''Film/DaughterOfTheDragon'' has Fu Manchu's daughter, played by the stunning Creator/AnnaMayWong.
130	* Though we don't get to see them in action, Mr. Han from ''Film/EnterTheDragon'' trained his daughters to be his most loyal guards. As Roper says upon finding out how tough they can be, "No one's more loyal than Daddy's little girl."
131	* Ming's daughter Princess Aura in both the classic 30's ''Film/{{Flash Gordon\|Serial}}'' serials and the '80s ''Film/{{Flash Gordon\|1980}}'' film, albeit in some versions she's not as cruel as her father and may even betray him in order to save Flash, who she (in all versions) lusts after him.
132	* ''Film/TheFunhouseMassacre'': Eileen is the daughter of Manual "Mental Manny" Dyer, and breaks him and several other {{Serial Killer}}s out of the Statesville Mental Hospital so they can carry out their plan to kill a bunch of people in a Haunted House Attraction. She even has her own serial killer identity, the Stitch-Faced Killer.
133	* ''Film/AGoodDayToDieHard'': Irina is this towards her father [[BigBad Yuri Kamorov]].
134	* ''Film/GunsGirlsAndGambling'': [[spoiler:The Girl Next Door is actually The Rancher's daughter, and has been manipulating John Smith the entire time in order to secure the mask for her father.]]
135	* ''Film/{{Kajillionaire}}'': Two petty thugs don't want their daughter to have a better life. Instead, they want her to join in the family business.
136	* ''Film/TheMaskOfFuManchu'': Fah Lo is every bit as evil as her father, and is completely on board with making him the new Khan. See entry under Literature below.
137	* Angela in ''Film/MatchstickMen'' proves to be just as cunning of a ConMan as her father Roy. [[spoiler:Justified as she is an actress playing a con against him.]]
138	* Angelica Teach from ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanOnStrangerTides'' is TheDragon for her father, [[TheDreaded the infamous Blackbeard]]. [[spoiler: Little does she know [[UnwittingPawn he's just using her]] to achieve [[ImmortalitySeeker his quest for immortality]].]]
139	* In the Danish film ''Film/{{Pusher}} 3'', Serb drug lord Milo's daughter clearly wears the pants in the family, ordering her flustered father around to prepare for her 25th birthday party. After Milo discovers that her boyfriend is an independent drug dealer and forces him to buy his product for distribution, his daughter finds out and hardballs his price down. What a family!
140	* ''Film/{{Sky High\|2005}}'': [[spoiler:Gwen]] was raised by Stitches to be evil, and she absolutely hates whenever someone, including Stitches himself, points this out. [[spoiler:Also a rare instance of the "little villain" rather than the "daddy" being the dominant partner. In this case, though, she was already evil to begin with.]]
141	* In ''Film/TheSmurfs2'', Smurfette is played up as this to her "father" Gargamel before her HeelFaceTurn, along with her "sister" Vexy, though to a lesser extent.
142	* ''Film/ThorRagnarok'': Hela had a grand time with her old man, [[spoiler:Odin]] as a GalacticConqueror, drenching entire civilizations in "blood and tears". Then he turned good and they had a falling out.
143	* ''Film/War2007'': Kira, the Yakuza boss's daughter, is a DarkActionGirl who is eager to please her father by working as his lieutenant. She briefly works alongside Rogue while not realizing that he's PlayingBothSides.
144	* ''Film/{{Willow}}'': Initially, Sorsha's a loyal lieutenant to her evil sorceress mother.
145	* ''Film/{{Yellowbeard}}'': Triola, daughter of the greedy [[GodGuise religious leader]] El Nebuloso.

149	%%* Opal Koboi in ''Literature/ArtemisFowl''.
150	* Larry Peril from ''Constance Verity Saves The World'' is a Mommy's Little Villain, being the son of MadScientist supervillainess Lady Peril. Also a ''reluctant'' example, as he's long nursed a crush on the heroine and feels far too inept at command to follow in his mother's footsteps.
151	* Lila Zacharov of ''Literature/TheCurseWorkers'' by Holly Black is the daughter of a manipulative, murdering crime boss, and wants nothing more than to be his heir. However, she's portrayed as more of an [[AntiHero Anti-Heroine]] than a villain.
152	* A fascinating example in the ''Franchise/DoctorWho'' ''Literature/NewSeriesAdventures'' novel ''Judgement of the Judoon.'' Hope is an example of EvilParentsWantGoodKids, and knows nothing of her father's activities as TheDon. He is ''determined'' to keep it that way, and loves his little girl deeply. However, unbeknownst to him, she is also a WellDoneDaughterGirl, and became "Madam Yolanda", his archenemy in the underworld, as a way to get her father's attention. In the end, thanks to a GambitPileup, [[spoiler:she accidentally kills her father, and then is killed herself]].
153	* ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'': Harry Dresden's nemesis Nichodemus has a daughter named Deirdre who is as evil and dangerous as him and is [[ParentalIncest apparently his lover too]]. The RPG refers to her as ''Daddy's Little Denarian'' in her character sheet.
154	* Fah Lo Suee, the daughter of ''Literature/FuManchu'' embodies the "beautiful but at-least-as-evil-as-he" version of the evil mastermind's daughter.
155	* ''Literature/{{Gentleman Bastard}}'':All three of [[TheDon Capa Barsavi's]] children could fall into this trope.
156	%%* Belinda Contague in Glen Cook's ''Literature/GarrettPI'' series.
157	* Devereaux D'Orsay in (the last book of) Cinda Williams Chima's ''Literature/TheHeirChronicles'' is male, but he's still the spoiled, bratty, and thoroughly villainous (though handsome) child of one of the main villains.
158	* Phaidor, daughter of the Thern (White Martian) [[HighPriest Priest King]] from the second and third ''Literature/JohnCarterOfMars'' novels. Her dad is the head of a planet-spanning PathOfInspiration which manipulates the other Martian races into being slaves and/or [[ImAHumanitarian food]] for their people, and she's not only completely cool with it, she finds the idea of any other way of life unthinkable, and while [[VillainessesWantHeroes she's attracted to Carter]], it's mostly because he's badass and she's [[EvilCannotComprehendGood utterly dumbfounded]] by why he does the things he does. [[spoiler:Then she gets a dose of BreakTheHaughty when she finds out that ''another'' Martian race, the First Born, are using the Therns the same way the Therns use everyone else, followed shortly by Carter exposing the whole thing and toppling it. ''Then'' her dad gets offed by the First Born warlord he'd been in a very tense VillainTeamUp with, and she [[AvengingTheVillain avenges]] him before committing suicide, though [[RedemptionEqualsDeath she does express repentance in her last moments]].]]
159	* ''Literature/LegacyOfTheDragokin'': [[spoiler:Inverted as Kthonia is not at all evil and her daughter Sali-Ka is the BigBad. Avenging The Villain kicks in when her daughter is killed]].
160	* Although not related by blood, DimeNovel villain Zanoni the Woman Wizard was the ward of Dr Jack Quartz, the ArchEnemy of ''Literature/NickCarter''.
161	* In ''Literature/OutlanderLeander'', Signe the Scraper is this. After her mother dies she fights to take over her crime ring despite being underage. She's involved in kidnapping, slavery and murder, and goes as far as to plan the assassination of one of the country's leaders.
162	* Nova from ''Literature/{{Renegades}}'' is the niece of Ace Anarchy, the world's most infamous supervillain, and is dedicated to furthering his cause.
163	* ''Literature/RulerOfTheMagicalKeys'': The teenage daughter of [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Signor Mafioso Banditto]] in ''The Island of Captains''. Makes her father immensely proud by helping him to snatch property from the local poor and planning to follow in his footsteps. It’s not mentioned what happens when she grows up, but she [[spoiler:creates the {{Tulpa}} that becomes the BigBad of the book]].
164	* Mr. Scratch of ''Literature/ScaryStoriesForYoungFoxes'' conditions his eldest daughter to abuse her disabled younger brother Uly. She encourages their sisters to join in, making Uly's life quite unbearable until her death.
165	* In ''Literature/TheSecretsOfDrearcliffGrangeSchool'', several of the students at Drearcliff are the daughters of criminal masterminds, including the protagonist Amy's room-mate, Kali, whose father is a Kafiri warlord. The DistantFinale shows that she has taken over and expanded her father's organization, but frequently uses it to take down worse criminal masterminds and generally acts with honor such that Amy is not embarrassed to consider her a friend.
166	* ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'':
167	** Petyr Baelish is trying to get Alayne Stone/[[spoiler:Sansa Stark]] to play this role, although there is much speculation as to where this will lead.
168	** Cersei wanted to be this to Tywin Lannister, but winds up as a [[GenderInvertedTrope rare female]] WellDoneSonGuy instead, because Tywin would rather she adopt a more traditional female role as wife and mother to a king.
169	** Asha Greyjoy appears to be this while her father is alive, but after his death proves to have a much different and more sensible agenda.
170	* ''Franchise/StarTrek'': In Creator/WilliamShatner's novel ''[[Literature/StarTrekShatnerverse Ashes Of Eden]]'', the BigBad's daughter has been brainwashed by her father into doing everything she can to kill Kirk. Why? Because her mother was killed by Klingons shortly before Kirk helped sign the peace treaty, preventing her father from exacting revenge on them. She opts to die with her father rather than let Kirk [[SaveTheVillain save her]].
171	* ''Franchise/StarWars'': Vestara Khai from ''Literature/FateOfTheJedi'' comes from a whole society of [[EvilSorcerer Sith]], and both she and her father Gavar are major villains. [[spoiler:Then she gets into an EnemyMine with Luke Skywalker and his son Ben against an EldritchAbomination which is manipulating her people- and while Ves herself would be horrified at the idea, many fans hoped she'd make a genuine HeelFaceTurn before everything was over.]] Indeed, in ''Vortex'', [[spoiler:she saves Luke and Ben from the Sith. ''Twice'']]. Also, this trope takes an interesting turn when [[spoiler:Vestara killed Lord Taalon, who was "too far above her station", thus making her own father (and lots of other Sith) want to kill her]]. Afterwards, she decides to stick around and help Luke and Ben and [[spoiler:falls in love with Ben. They're set up to have an adorable romance... until she murders someone in a desperate bid to save Ben's life]]. While he wasn't aware of it, it [[spoiler:crossed her personal MoralEventHorizon, and she decides ThenLetMeBeEvil]].
172	* Sonia Steiglitz is the beautiful and sadistic PsychoKnifeNut daughter of the ex-CIA chief/archaeologist villain of ''The Takers'', a modern {{Two Fisted Tale\|s}} by Jerry Ahern.
173	-->"My mother would drink while my father was out searching for the damned [[MacGuffin Gladstone Log]]. Some nights she'd beat me because she couldn't love him. I'm twenty-six years old. I stopped playing with dolls twenty years ago. I taught myself to hurt things and feel nothing -- all so I could be with him when he searched -- ''be with him!'' It was never my mother -- I don't know if he loved her. It was always finding the Gladstone Log... the power... the power he wanted..."
174	* In ''Literature/VampireAcademy'', [[spoiler:Natalie will do anything her father Victor Dashkov tells her to do - even drastic things, like turning Strigoi to help him get out of prison. She is his chief agent in his campaign against Lissa]].
175	%%* Angela Paco from ''Literature/TheVampireFiles''.
176	* PlayedWith in ''Literature/{{Worm}}''. Feared supervillain [[BadWithTheBone Marquis]] is visibly shocked when he finds out his biological daughter Amy Dallon is now a beloved superhero with the [[{{Biomanipulation}} power to heal]], but ultimately seems to be content that [[EvilParentsWantGoodKids she turned out okay]]. After she undergoes a TraumaCongaLine and is sent to the same prison as him, he becomes very protective of his near-catatonic daughter, even though the other prison bosses see it as a weakness. When she starts to ([[SanitySlippage dubiously]]) recover though, he’s proud of how well she begins to assert herself amongst the other inmates. By the sequel series ''Literature/{{Ward}}'', he has happily made her his [[TheDragon most trusted lieutenant]].

179	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
180	* ''Series/{{Arrow}}'' has Ra's al Ghul as the BigBad of Season 3, but of his two daughters, Nyssa gets more prominence than Talia. The same season flirts with the idea that Thea will fall under the influence of supervillain Malcolm Merlyn (having recently discovered she's his illegitimate daughter) but she eventually rejects him and returns to her brother Oliver, by which time (ironically) Malcolm has become the next Ra's.
181	* Invoked and inverted in the Brazilian Soap Opera ''O Beijo do Vampiro'' (''The Vampire's Kiss''). Zeca is the son of an evil vampire Boris and a human. Boris finds his son when he's about to turn thirteen, when he'll become a full vampire. Zeca is horrified about the whole ordeal. While he turns into a vampire anyway, he manages to remain a kind boy, much to Boris' frustration (doesn't stop him from trying to convince Zeca to change his ways, though). Later, as they spend time together, Boris grows to [[EvilParentsWantGoodKids just be happy as long as Zeca is and that he comes to accept Boris as his father]].
182	* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'':
183	** Despite not really being his daughter, Faith winds up very much playing this role to The Mayor in the third season -- she's his loyal [[TheDragon Dragon]], of whom he is clearly protective. Her loyalty is based on him being the first (and possibly ''only'') person who ever valued her just for being her (not using her or trying to change her). When he tells her that even if Buffy did a FaceHeelTurn, he'd still pick Faith over her, it's a weird but touchingly sincere moment that clearly means the world to her. Buffy sending her into a coma leads to [[AffablyEvil his one swear word]], and Buffy taunting him about said loss leads to his defeat. Many scenes between Faith and the Mayor involve him acting very fatherly and tender, giving her gifts and general life advice (about respecting and valuing herself) alongside assassination missions. Nice little call back in both Season Seven and the Season Eight comics, showing that Faith remembers him fondly despite her HeelFaceTurn.
184	** Darla is this, if you remember that The Master is her sire.
185	** Drusilla is almost as evil as her beloved "Daddy." The two seem to have a lot in common, killing and making plans together, and in "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS5E14Crush Crush]]", Dru even shows Angelus's affinity for torture, while Spike prefers quick kills. Angelus even tells her "no one knows me like you do." Her betrayal of Spike for Angelus the moment he returns probably seals the deal. Of course, Dru and Angelus have been sleeping together since before Spike was born, but that's how vampire families seem to work.
186	* ''Series/ElChapulinColorado'' in TheWildWest settings has Rosa la Rumorosa (Rosa "the many rumors one") daughter and accomplice of feared gunslinger villain Matonsísimo Kid (the "Kills a lot" Kid).
187	* ''Series/{{CSINY}}'':
188	** "[[Recap/CSINYS07E18 Identity Crisis]]" features a young woman in her early-twenties, the daughter of an infamous deceased ConMan who taught her everything he knew about grifting. What gets her killed is trying to the tell her boyfriend about a large score they could make from scamming two guys who themselves were trying to pull off a scam. She tells the boyfriend that the deal went wrong, and convinces him to empty his bank account, borrow a large amount from his brother, and sell anything of value to pay them off. After months of not seeing her, he recognizes her in an old man costume, and when she tries to fight him off, he kills her and flees the scene.
189	** "[[Recap/CSINYS08E03 Cavallino Rampante]]" deals with two of a car thief's three daughters following him into the family business. He helps them focus on stealing Ferraris and gets killed for his trouble (along with one of the girls) when they snatch the car of an internationally wanted felon.
190	* ''Series/ForeverKnight'': [[InvertedTrope Inverted]]. [=LaCroix=]'s daughter Divia became a vampire first and is the reason for him becoming one too, not the other way around. She's also far more amoral and embracing of her monstrous nature than even her Machiavellian father, which led him to [[SealedEvilInACan seal her away]] for two thousand years.
191	* ''Series/GameOfThrones'':
192	** The show has a scene where [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen Cersei]] is showing Crown Prince [[RoyalBrat Joffrey]] how to be Mummy's little villain. [[spoiler: Unfortunately, he takes her advice re: "you are king and can do whatever you want" very much to heart, while ignoring her lessons on prudent policy and government]]. Cersei herself seems to be trying to be this to her father Tywin, but unfortunately thanks to being a) a woman and b) not nearly as clever as she thinks she is, she doesn't get the appreciation she thinks she deserves.
193	** Yara Greyjoy is a straight example when she is eager to participate in her father's plan to attack the North, though she disobeys her father in the finale of Season 3, when she gets word of [[spoiler:Theon's imprisonment by Ramsay Snow]]. Balon's disgustingly cruel dismissal of Theon as "not being a man anymore" and his desire to leave him to his nightmarish fate cause her to openly disobey his command and set out with her own team to take care of it herself.
194	* ''Series/GothamKnights2023'': Eunice Harmon adores her father, a serial killer, who dotes on her even now, fully supporting his murderous work as the Court of Owls' top enforcer. However, being an old lady in a nursing home, she doesn't actively do anything but voice moral support of him.
195	%%* Elle from ''Series/{{Heroes}}''.
196	* Nora Darhk was initially one of these in ''Series/LegendsOfTomorrow'', acting as TheDragon to her dad, Damien Darhk. Following Damien's death (in which he abandoned his evil plan when he realised it would kill her) she underwent a HeelFaceTurn, and ended up as Ray's {{Love Interest\|s}} and [[spoiler:a fairy godmother]].
197	* Alexandra Udinov was nearly an example in ''Series/{{Nikita}}''. She adored her Russian oligarch father and swore revenge against Division when they killed him. This trope is subverted when she realizes just how evil he was and that she was being groomed to take over him company. Though she still avenges his death, she gives away the company and continues helping Nikita against Division.
198	* ''Literature/Nos4a2'': Millie, Manx's daughter, is almost exactly like him and turned evil at the same time (she's the first of his vampirish kids).
199	* ''Series/{{Pandora}}'': Both of Harlan Fried's daughters are just as evil and as ambitious as him. [[spoiler:Even Tierney, who's revealed to be his third daughter "Odessa" in the season one finale. And unlike Regan and Cordelia, she's actually loyal to him.]]
200	* ''Franchise/PowerRangers'':
201	** Astronema from ''Series/PowerRangersInSpace'' toward Ecliptor, although he was just a father figure to her (this is known from the start, although it's related to [[spoiler:her being Andros' BrainwashedAndCrazy long-lost sister]]).
202	** Trakeena from ''Series/PowerRangersLostGalaxy''.
203	** Nadira from ''Series/PowerRangersTimeForce'' (though she has a HeelRealization by the end, which leads to [[spoiler:Ransik's own HeelFaceTurn]]).
204	** cough [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Rita Repulsa during Master Vile's campaign]] cough
205	%%* [[spoiler: Mr. Yang]] from ''Series/{{Psych}}.''
206	* ''Series/ResurrectionErtugrul'': During the sophomore season, there's [[spoiler: Goncagul Hatun,]] both in the sense that she’s the daughter of the immoral [[spoiler: Gumustekin Bey]] and the niece of [[spoiler: his sister]] Aytolun, and is at least equally malicious as either of her aforementioned relatives.
207	* ''Series/TheRookie2018'': Oscar Hutchinson, a ruthless murderer, applauds his illegitimate daughter for her involvement in crime, and hopes his legacy will continue with her.
208	* In the ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'' episode "[[Recap/StarTrekS1E13TheConscienceOfTheKing The Conscience of the King]]", the daughter of a former villain in hiding uses their cover as a performing theater troupe to kill off the remaining witnesses to her father's previous crimes as a way of "protecting" him from recrimination. Her father is extremely displeased with her when he finds out, having hoped to start a legitimate new life in their cover identities, and appalled that the blood on his hands had irreversibly stained her as well.
209	* ''Franchise/SuperSentai'':
210	** ''Series/ChoushinseiFlashman'' has Leh Nafel, who was created by Lee Keflen and views him as her father because of this.
211	** ''Series/KyuKyuSentaiGoGoFive'': Denus, the only daughter of [[EvilMatriarch Grand Witch Grandiene]], is ''Mommy'''s Little Villain.
212	** ''Series/MashinSentaiKiramager'': Yodonna has something akin to this relationship with Emperor Yodon, who is technically her father since [[spoiler:he created her to be his LiteralSplitPersonality. While Yodonna is very affectionate towards him, Yodon doesn't reciprocate and throws her under the bus as soon as is convenient.]]
213	* ''Series/YoungDracula'' has Ingrid, the elder sister of the title character, who at least in the earlier seasons would ''love'' to be this. Unfortunately for her, her father is utterly sexist, and so he [[TheUnfavourite despises and ignores her]] in favour of her WhiteSheep brother.

216	[[folder:Religion and Mythology]]
217	* There is a Jewish folktale about a merchant's son who fell in love with the daughter of the Demon-king Ashmodeus and while she aided him against her father, found that her spouse had a roving eye, and like Medea she killed his entire human family.
218	* In Myth/ClassicalMythology, war god Ares has a literal AmazonBrigade of these--as in, he fathered [[TropeNamer the original Amazons themselves]], who due to ValuesDissonance were often depicted as a dangerous StrawFeminist BarbarianTribe (even if they ''[[AllAmazonsWantHercules could]]'' also be, er, friendlier once they got to know you). This makes the trope OlderThanFeudalism. Zigzagged in that, while Greek sources depict Ares as a thuggish MilesGloriosus and as TheFriendNobodyLikes on Olympus, the ''Romans'' presented his counterpart Mars as [[AdaptationalHeroism much more honorable]].
219	* ''Literature/TheBookOfMormon'': Jared's [[TheEvilPrince attempt to overthrow]] his father the king has just failed. Jared's daughter suggests a plan for a successful overthrow: Jared's friend Akish would kill the king in exchange for her hand in marriage. The plan gets Jared the throne and Akish married to Jared's daughter. Later, Akish murders ''Jared'' and takes the kingdom for himself. (The account doesn't reveal how Jared's daughter feels about the events that made her queen.)

221
222	[[folder:Professional Wrestling]]
223	* Lady Apache and her daughter Fabi tend to compete as ''[[{{Face}} tecnicos]]'', while Lady's husband Gran Apache often works with the ''[[{{Heel}} rudos]]'', especially in Wrestling/{{AAA}}, and their other daughter Mari tends to work with him against [[AntagonisticOffspring her mom]] and [[CainAndAbel sister]]. [[DownplayedTrope That said]], Gran and Mari more often [[HeelFaceTurn choose to switch to tecnico]] to appease the other Apaches.
224	* Wrestling/StephanieMcMahon, daughter of billionaire BadBoss Wrestling/VinceMcMahon, definitely qualifies.
225	* Wrestling/CharlotteFlair, daughter of the dirtiest player in the game, Wrestling/RicFlair. She especially shows this after she TookALevelInJerkass.
226	* After Act Yasukawa relinquished control of Oedo~tai back to Kyoko Kimura, Kyoko's then rookie daughter joined her mother's efforts to knock over the STARDOM promotion, helping Kyoko and Kagetsu take the Artist Of STARDOM from the [[VillainousUnderdog seemingly unstoppable]] babyface [[RivalsTeamUp alliance]] holding them. Hana technically counts as daddy's little villain in a literal sense too, as dad Isao Kobayashi is also a pro wrestler, but due to the relative rarity of mixed gender cards in Japan she doesn't team up with him nearly as often as mom.
227	[[/folder]]
228
229	[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
230	* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' has two prominent examples, both archdevils from the Nine Hells of Baator.
231	** Glasya is nothing less than the daughter of Asmodeus, Overlord of Hell. She went through a long rebellious phase, but then the two of them reached an accord and Glasya was given the sixth hell of Malbolge to rule over - her first act was to do some remodeling using the Hag Countess, the layer's previous ruler, [[BloodyBowelsOfHell as a building material.]] This act sent shockwaves through Hellish politics, reminding the other archdukes that Asmodeus could replace any of them at any time, particularly unnerving Levistus, the duke who murdered Glasya's mother, and Mammon, her on-again off-again paramour. As for Glasya herself, she's too busy these days to seduce paladins and other righteous mortals herself, but still enjoys promising a victim carnal delights beyond imagination only to instead rot the flesh from their bones with a horrible contagion.
232	** Lady Fierna is the nominal ruler of Phlegethos, though for most of her reign her dear father Belial wielded most of the power while Fierna enjoyed herself ([[VillainousIncest often with him]]). But she's recently become best friends with Glasya and is taking a much more active role in governing, even setting up her own cultist and intelligence networks [[TheStarscream "just in case"]] of her father's sudden demise. Belial is smart enough to be very, very worried.
233	[[/folder]]
234
235	[[folder:Theatre]]
236	* ''Theatre/HarryPotterAndTheCursedChild'':
237	** [[spoiler:Delphi]] is the daughter of Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange, eagerly following her father's steps.
238	** Augurey, a powerful Death Eater whose parents supported Voldemort during [[Literature/HarryPotter the first Wizarding War]]. The two Death Eaters never met their child, but the Augurey still feels an incredible closeness to them and seeks to destroy the Potters in their honor. The Augurey's status as an orphan also creates a parallel scenario for Harry Potter, who fights for good because his deceased parents did.
239	* OlderThanFeudalism: ''Theatre/{{Medea}}'' of Creator/{{Euripides}}' tragedy is an excellent illustration of what this character type is like when they are in love with the hero, and how just ''dangerous'' said characters are if you betray them. After Hera made her [[MadLove fall madly in love]] with Jason, in order to aid him she betrayed her father, cut her brother into several pieces to distract her father so Jason had more time to escape, and tricked Jason's cousins into murdering their father -- Jason's usurping uncle. Jason married her and vowed eternal love, but when he [[TooDumbToLive changed his mind]] and abandoned the [[DarkMagicalGirl very powerful witch]] to go marry someone else, she not only murdered her own children by Jason (to keep them from becoming slaves, which they would have been under Greek law at the time as she was a foreigner) but had her revenge by magically incinerating Jason's wife. She's also a major KarmaHoudini, since her fate was to become a goddess and get paired with some handsome hero in the Elysian Fields. Although it makes some sense as not only she was part-divine, and from her actions she was clearly [[JerkassGods following in the footsteps of the rest of that pantheon]], what she did was nothing but a sadistic take on what was the punishment for an oathbreaker and thus, [[ValuesDissonance for the Greeks]], Jason himself was the only one to blame.

243	* Cindy Caine from [[Ride/UniversalStudios Universal's]] ''Theatre/HalloweenHorrorNights'' is the demented and equally murder-happy daughter of The Caretaker, who serves as one of the event's main icons.
244	[[/folder]]
245
246	[[folder:Video Games]]
247	* Tabitha/Larissa from ''[[VideoGame/NintendoWars Advance Wars: Days of Ruin]]'', who is Caulder's/Stolos' [[TheDragon Dragon]]. She's also the most loyal to him (though not slavishly so; for some reason they seem to have a relatively normal father-daughter relationship).
248	%%* Elenor Lamb in the bad ending of ''VideoGame/BioShock2''.
249	* ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaPortraitOfRuin'' plays with this: while Stella and Loretta aim to take down the heroes, they do it independently of Brauner, who insists they stay out of harm's way. [[spoiler:They're also not his daughters, having been {{brainwashed\|AndCrazy}} to believe that Brauner is their father.]]
250	* Nina Cortex, the niece of Dr. Neo Cortex [[spoiler:(although it has been speculated that she may be his daughter)]] in the ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot'' series.
251	%%* Puchi Oguras #1 and #5 from ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendaryStarfy Densetsu No Stafy 2]]''.
252	* ''VideoGame/{{Disgaea 2}}'': Rosalyn ''believes'' herself to be one of these, [[spoiler:but in reality she's the reincarnation of Lord Zenon, not his (or possibly her) daughter]].
253	* The ''VideoGame/DragonFable'' villain Sepulchure (one of the more serious bad guys in the normally lighthearted game) is revealed to have a daughter during on the Elemental Orb storylines. You may think of her as an innocent baby, but that's only unless you haven't played ''VideoGame/AdventureQuestWorlds'', AE's MMO, which shows her already a grown woman (or teenager, it's hard to tell) and takes over as the leader of the Evil faction in the game. The two even wear the Doomknight armor.
254	* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
255	** You'd think ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyCrystalChroniclesMyLifeAsADarklord'' would feature this... but it doesn't, exactly. The current Darklord is all EvilOverlord, but according to the intro [[spoiler: and the previous game, ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyCrystalChroniclesMyLifeAsAKing'']], her father was an AntiVillain who just wanted to protect monsters and provide them a place to live in peace.. but was more than willing to kill those who stood in the way of this goal. So... she doesn't take after her father in that she's ''more unambiguously evil and less sympathetic than him.'' [[spoiler:though by the end, it's flipped, in that she doesn't even qualify as an ''anti''-villain anymore, having realized that the ruthlessness of her father's methods actually failed to help anyone and trying to out-ruthless him isn't the way to succeed where he failed.]]
256	** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX'': Yunalesca being one of these to her father Yu Yevon is one of the reasons Spira is such a CrapsackWorld. [[spoiler:Apparently she ''could'' have designed the Final Aeon to be able to permanently destroy Sin and Yu Yevon, but she just couldn't bring herself to kill what was left of her father and Zanarkand. Cue 1000 years of suffering.]]
257	* The animatronic known as Circus Baby [[spoiler:or rather, Elizabeth Afton]] to her father [[spoiler:William Afton AKA [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys3 Springtrap]]]] in ''[[VideoGame/FreddyFazbearsPizzeriaSimulator Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator]]''. She is perfectly willing to kill you alongside her father and is fully capable of doing it.
258	* She's only his daughter in name, but Mileena has this relationship with Shao Kahn in the ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' games, especially in the altered timeline, where she becomes a twisted and evil sort of DaddysGirl. Unfortunately, despite proving herself in her "father's" eyes, and becoming empress of the Outworld after his death, she becomes a poor one; in ''VideoGame/MortalKombatX'' she is almost [[HatedByAll universally hated, both by Earthrealm and Outworld natives alike]].
259	* In ''VideoGame/MysteryCaseFiles: 13th Skull'', the actual villain of the story has a [[CreepyChild disturbing little girl]] who is [[spoiler:fully aware of and ''involved in'' their plan to use and then kill the protagonist]].
260	* ''VideoGame/SaintsRowGatOutOfHell'': {{Satan}} has a daughter, Jezebel, who he's decided to marry off to the most powerful being in the universe, The Boss. Subverted in that Jezebel hates her abusive father and sides with the heroes to get out from under his thumb.
261	* ''VideoGame/SilhouetteMirage'' has Geluve, Har's biological daughter and one of the [[QuirkyMinibossSquad Guardian Angels]].
262	* Vaylin from ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic'' is a tragic, but twisted example. Valkorian had no intention of giving up power, and Vaylin was so potent with Force power that she was making furniture move ''in utero.'' From the time her and her brothers could stand, Valkorian was training them to be his [[TheDragon Dragons]]. When Vaylin lost her temper during a sparring session, her outburst crushed several men to death inside their armor. Valkorian, fearing she would overthrow him someday, dumped her on a [[PlaceWorseThanDeath world that had been stripped of the Force]], put her in the hands of a crazed MadScientist and equally insane cult, [[BrainwashedAndCrazy subjected her to horrific tortures and "experiments,"]] and conditioned her with a TriggerPhrase that could stop her from acting. Her mother ''tried'' to storm the prison and carry her to safety, but she was so far gone she stayed with daddy. The end result is a bloodthirsty and insane young woman who acts more like a rabid dog with Force powers and a lightsaber than a Sith.
263	* Wendy O. Koopa from the ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' games, though WordOfGod says in modern games she's not ''directly'' related to Bowser. One of the ''Literature/NintendoAdventureBooks'' centers around [[spoiler:Wendy trying to be TheUsurper by stealing her brothers' magic wands and combining them with her own to create a super-powered wand. She plans to use the wand to [[TheStarscream overthrow Bowser and rule the Koopas in his stead]]]].
264	* Olivia Mann to her father Gray in ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2''. She's completely willing to help her father take over Mann Co. and its [[AppliedPhlebotinum Australium]] reserves, even if she's still in elementary school.
265	* Vanessa [=VanCleef=] from ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft''. Daughter of the head of the Defias gang Edwin [=VanCleef=], Vanessa watched her father be killed by the heroes of the Alliance. In Cataclysm, she was hell-bent on revenge, and the entire Westfall questline revolves around her desire for vengeance.

267
268	[[folder:Visual Novels]]
269	* Subverted with [[spoiler:Eris Illmater]] in ''VisualNovel/TyrionCuthbertAttorneyOfTheArcane''. At first, she's revealed as the daughter of the Eyetaker, a notorious crime boss, and is just as involved in his day-to-day operations such as [[spoiler:pressing Ruby into making sure the heir to House Frega gets away with murder]]. Then it's revealed that [[spoiler:she's not his real daughter at all, and was merely disguising herself as the real Eris, whom she already disposed of]]. However, during the game's end credits, we see her having a conversation with [[spoiler:her real father, where she's whining about him "grounding" her from Wyverngarde]].
270	[[/folder]]
271	[[folder:WebAnimation]]
272	* WebAnimation/WolfSongTheMovie:
273	** PlayedStraight with Mia and Mai, who are loyal to their father the [[BigBad Death Alpha]] and cause trouble for the heroes whenever they can
274	** {{subverted}} with Raina, who starts off on the villains side but after falling for Lightning and Alador convincing her squad to defect, she sides with the heroes and proves her worth several times, even though her loyalties do remain visibly conflicted for some time
275	[[/folder]]
276	[[folder:Webcomics]]
277	* ''Webcomic/TheAdventuresOfWiglafAndMordred'' has one so interested in following in her father's footsteps as a henchman that she gets her new [[OurZombiesAreDifferent partner]] out of trouble with her dad by turning her dad on the [[ChronicHeroSyndrome hero]]. Hagen explains in the face of her new [[SignedUpForTheDental partner's]] incredulity with "[[http://liliy.net/wam/archive/what-did-you-expect/ What did you expect? I'm a henchman too, ya know.]]"
278	* ''Webcomic/ApricotCookies'': The Director of Darkness has a daughter that he wants to be the next Director. [[FollowInMyFootsteps Not that she wants to succeed him.]]
279	* Lucrezia Mongfish from ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' is equal parts this and MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter. Whether she ever did a HeelFaceTurn or not remains a matter of debate, even though she's sort of dead... and sort of not.
280	[[/folder]]
281
282	[[folder:Web Original]]
283	* ''WebOriginal/ObscuredEyes'': Daisy shares much of the similarities to her father Dr. Nightshade, mainly doing experiments using different plants and chemicals, and they both share the same lack of remorse for their actions.
284	* ''Literature/TheRoadToHell'' has Bereesa Torgash, the daughter of the tyrannical King Chorn Torgash. Similar to her father, she mostly just cares about (sometimes begrudgingly) assisting her father in ruling over his kingdom, even if it means killing fellow orcs and permitting slavery.
285	* Chaotrix, from ''WebVideo/SuperAcademy'', is utterly obedient to her father and completely blind to that fact.
286	* [[MadScientist Sieglinde Nomura]] from ''Literature/UnderTheColdMoon'', who's the daughter of [[BigBad Siegfried Gunmarsohn]], the leader of a pack of vicious werewolves. Like her father, she's a heartless sociopath who enjoys wanton murder and tormenting innocent people.
287	* JustForFun/TheUniversalGenreSavvyGuide list for [[http://www.worldconquer.org/evil_overlord.html henchmen of]] the EvilOverlord, includes a section for the [[http://www.worldconquer.org/evil_overlord.html#Anchor-Tips-23240 "Wicked but Beautiful Daughter"]]. It includes tips such as:
288	** Learning about TheReveal relating to your father before any heroes can spring it on you.
289	** Avoid futile attempts to MurderTheHypotenuse to try and [[VillainessesWantHeroes be the hero's love]].
290	** How to deal with HighCollarOfDoom outfits.
291	* Maybe half the girls in the Bad Seeds, the club at [[SuperheroSchool Whateley Academy]] in the ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'' for children of supervillains. Jobe is the child of Gizmatic, and as such is now the heir apparent and princess of Karedonia.
292	[[/folder]]
293
294	[[folder:Western Animation]]
295	* In ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius'', Beautiful Gorgeous, the FemmeFatale daughter of Professor Finbar Calamitous, constantly bickers with daddy when they scheme together. Their one mission together involves kidnapping Action Hero (real and TV star) Jet Fusion.
296	* ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfSuperMarioBros3'' amps up this tendency in Bowser's daughter Wendy O. Koopa, as mentioned in the Video Games folder. Bowser lets all of his kids wreak havoc in the episodes where they appear, but is particularly adoring of his only daughter.
297	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Arcane}}'': [[spoiler:Jinx in Acts II and III]]. Silco regularly dotes on her, enables her destructive and unstable behavior, and takes her occasional moments of [[AbusiveOffspring violence towards him]] in stride. Meanwhile, his other lackies and fellow crime bosses see her as a unstable wild card who tends to complicate any given operation, which Silco even privately acknowledges as true; he just cares too much for his daughter to seriously punish her for it. In the season one finale, [[spoiler:when Silco is actually given the option to receive everything he ever wanted on a silver platter, he decides to reject it, as it would mean giving up his foster daughter. [[{{Patricide}} Jinx learns that he was going to reject the offer a bit too late]], but even then, his final words to her are those of loving encouragement and affirmation]].
298	* ''[[Franchise/AvatarTheLastAirbender Avatar]]'' franchise:
299	** [[Characters/AvatarTheLastAirbenderPrincessAzula Princess Azula]] in ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' gets much more screen time than her similarly-evil progenitor. She also serves as a foil to her brother, [[AntiVillain Zuko]], succeeding repeatedly where he fails [[spoiler:and eventually failing spectacularly, miserably, where he succeeds]].
300	** In SequelSeries ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'':
301	*** [[MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter Asami Sato]] defies the trope. When her father [[WeCanRuleTogether offered her]] a [[StaticStunGun shock glove]], she took it...and [[CombatPragmatist used it on him]].
302	*** Played straighter with Princess Eska, and subverted with her twin brother [[DudeLooksLikeALady Desna]], who is a sort of [[GenderInvertedTrope Rare Male Example]]. Eventually, though, their father [[spoiler:goes too far, past the point where they must draw the line]].
303	* PlayedWith in the ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'' episode "[[Recap/BatmanBeyondS3E4OutOfThePast Out of the Past]]". Talia al Ghul (pictured above) appears to have given up being a villainess and decided to fully accept that she loves Bruce. She offers him eternal youth via constant dips in the Lazarus Pit and declares that his life as a vigilante is over. Bruce undergoes the process and much of his youth is restored. He promptly declares that if he stays in the house with Talia and keeps taking dips in the pit, he'll be weaker than ever. Talia is unwilling to let him leave, and it is discovered that [[spoiler:she isn't Talia at all but rather Ra's Al Ghul himself. Ra's had Talia kill herself so that [[FamilialBodySnatcher what remained of his consciousness could be transferred to her body]]. His real reasoning for inviting Bruce was to transfer his consciousness to a more suitable form and gain all of his millions to top it off. The fact that Talia was willing to die just for her father's plan to work definitely makes her a cross between this and LoveMartyr]].
304	* ''Franchise/Ben10'':
305	** Charmcaster has this sort of relationship with her uncle Hex in ''WesternAnimation/{{Ben 10}}''. Ironically, [[spoiler:Hex would go through a HeelFaceTurn in ''WesternAnimation/Ben10Omniverse'', while Charmcaster would merely go through the HeelFaceRevolvingDoor.]]
306	** ''WesternAnimation/Ben10Omniverse'': Incursean Princess Attea shares her father's ambition, and he's proud of her, even (or especially) when she's [[spoiler:usurping him]]. Tetramand Princess Looma also has her father's approval, but she's less of a villain and more of an antagonist.
307	* Shreeky from the ''Franchise/CareBears'' series is No Heart's spoiled and bratty niece. As a villain, she and Beastly act like a TerribleTrio (with No Heart being the leader).
308	* ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'':
309	** [[FieryRedhead Numbuh 86]] is [[StrawFeminist extremely unpleasant]], feared by everyone, and is the daughter of Mr. Boss, who is one of the show's biggest villains outside Father... but she defies this trope, as she's one of the leaders of the Global KND. This doesn't stop father and daughter from getting along, with any conflict related to their jobs being kept outside the home (not that this means Mr. Boss is nice to any kids other than his own).
310	** [[CreepyChild The female Delightful Children]] could count as an adopted variation of this trope.
311	* ''WesternAnimation/DangerMouse'' (relaunch):
312	** Baron Greenback is given a daughter named Delilah, who is just as evil but also an awkward teenager. He tries to encourage her to come out of her shell and conquer somewhere.
313	** Dawn/Princess, an EnfantTerrible with a pink fixation, is later revealed to be the daughter of Augustus Crumhorn IV, a CorruptCorporateExecutive.
314	%%* From ''WesternAnimation/DaveTheBarbarian'', Princess Urmaplotz is a parody of the concept, as well as the PrincessClassic.
315	* Rava from ''WesternAnimation/GaltarAndTheGoldenLance'' is even more full of scheming and betrayal than [[BigBad her uncle Tormak]].
316	* Demona from ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'' would like to turn her daughter Angela into this. It's not happening.
317	* Star Nightingale, one of the fellow cheerleaders of the titular trio of superheroines in ''WesternAnimation/GrooveSquad'', also happens to be the daughter of Dr. Nefarious Nightingale, the film's main villain--Star also combines this trope with EvilRedhead (Star has red hair while her dad has black hair), MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter (since her dad's a MadScientist bent on world domination) and UglyGuysHotDaughter (just look at the profile pictures for Star and her dad on the character page).
318	* Played completely straight with Creeping Ivy, daughter of King Thorn, in ''WesternAnimation/HerselfTheElf'', who shares her father's evil nature-ruining ambitions and wants to become queen.
319	%%* Goldie, Goldfinger's daughter in ''WesternAnimation/JamesBondJr''.
320	* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'''s resident MadScientist, Dr. Doofenshmirtz, likes to ''think'' that [[MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter his daughter]] Vanessa is this. While she was completely unreceptive to the idea at first, later episodes seem to hint that [[CharacterDevelopment she might be heading in that direction after all]], even if she still denies it. [[spoiler: And ''then'' it's completely {{inverted\|Trope}} in the finale when, while considering an internship with the good guy agency that serves as a counterforce to the Tri-State Area's many evil scientists, ''she'' gets ''him'' to question his own investment in villainy and directly causes his HeelFaceTurn.]]
321	* Princess Morbucks on ''Franchise/ThePowerpuffGirls''. Her daddy virtually finances all her schemes. (Although, he himself has never been known to do anything evil other than that.)
322	* Danuvia of ''WesternAnimation/{{Robozuna}}'' is the daughter of EvilOverlord Caesar Mallam (although at least in the first season, he is not seen onstage and Danuvia is the BigBad).
323	* ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'': [[spoiler:Aku seems thrilled with the idea of having a daughter and an heir once he discovers his dark magic sired Ashi, especially when he is able to control her and use her as a weapon against Jack. Sadly, Ashi does not approve, and is helpless to resist as he controls her like a puppet.]]
324	* Cerina in ''WesternAnimation/SkysurferStrikeForce''. She is a very active participant in Cybercon's schemes, including stealing (back) a vial of an enlarging formula from Jack and sneaking into the hotel room Nate's mother is staying in to steal a magic figurine.
325	* ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan'': Towards the end of the second season, Spider-Man meets the villainess Silver Sable, a well-trained and deadly mercenary. She's a walking example of this trope: her father, Silvio Manfredi (aka Silvermane) was the biggest crime lord in New York, and he trained her to follow in his footsteps. She shows the utmost loyalty to him, and is devastated when the four-way battle between Silvermane, Tombstone, Doctor Octopus, and Spider-Man lands her father back in prison.
326	* Kitten, the daughter of Killer Moth in ''WesternAnimation/{{Teen Titans\|2003}}''. She steals her father's technology purely to create mayhem and get Robin's attention, and when her boyfriend Fang dumps her she latches on to Robin [[OperationJealousy purely as a trophy boyfriend to make Fang jealous]]. She unleashes a horde of man-eating moths on the city. [[spoiler:Her EvilPlan is a partial success; Fang does come back to her and profess his love, but they both end up in jail at the end.]]
327	* Even though it's not a biological relation (Programs do not have families in the way humans do), the dynamic between General Tesler and his more sympathetic [[TheDragon Dragon]] Paige has shades of this in ''WesternAnimation/TronUprising'', with a side order of {{Deconstruction}}. Tesler clearly prefers Paige over Pavel (who isn't very good about disguising the fact [[TheStarscream he'd like to stab Tesler in the back and take charge]]), and acts like a mentor to her. Paige believes Tesler saved her life from an ambush by Isos, and gave her a new function as a soldier when her medical facility was destroyed. [[spoiler:The reality is that Tesler slaughtered his way through the medical center, killing all of Paige's "family" to discredit the Isos. Paige was only spared because Quorra knocked her out, making Paige ''think'' she'd been ambushed. That, and Paige's talent for combat impressed Tesler enough that he found her useful. If she weren't useful to him, he'd de-rez her in a picosecond and not feel a whit of remorse.]]

331	* The EvilOverlordList recommends that if an evil overlord ends up having kids, make them get involved in the family business early and shower them with love. That way when the hero shows up [[XanatosGambit you have a no-win situation for them]]: they either kill the evil overlord in front of his little girl and walk away a lot less morally upstanding, or convince said little girl to come with them (at which point she pulls out her little gun and shoots him in the kneecap).
