* ''TabletopGame/ChangelingTheLost'': The [[TheFairFolk True Fae]] basically make themselves exist through narratives, so they're constitutionally incapable of seeing the world as anything but a story with themselves as the main character. If a Fae's mind strays too close to the notion that other people might actually be ''people'', it goes a bit insane and loses its powers until the thought dissipates.
* ''TabletopGame/ChuubosMarvelousWishGrantingEngine'': Those who wish to try this would be advised to invest in either Fist-Shake or (Overacted) Speechlessness XP. In the canon characters, the clearest example would be the Idol, Soun Shounen, who once punched out an ambassador because he thought the party was for him.
* ''TabletopGame/{{Cyberpunk}}'': In the ''Neo Tribes'' sourcebook, America and other western countries collapsed because of [[StrawmanPolitical a selfish ideological sickness]] that was born out of the need for people wanting to be seen as special. Everyone had to be "equal" to or preferably better than others, and fought to protect their "special" rights. If anyone had something that someone else wanted, they were painted as racist, sexist, elitist, or worse.
* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'':
** Beholders, combined with a heaping helping of FantasticRacism. A typical Beholder's world view: It is the pinnacle of creation and the perfect reflection of the Great Mother that spawned their race. Other Beholders of the same breed are tolerable inferiors who have their uses. Beholders of other breeds are disgusting abominations against nature that must be destroyed on sight. Anything that's not a Beholder is barely worth considering -- either flies to be swatted when they become a nuisance, or potential slaves. For added fun, although the difference between Beholder breeds is sometimes quite large, other times it can be things so minuscule that nothing that's not a Beholder would even notice. The Beholder with slightly bumpier skin or a different number of teeth is as much a hated inferior as the one who has flame-based powers instead of the standard Beholder suite or has a differing number of eyestalks. In fact, at least one splat claims that ''every single Beholder'' is technically its own breed, and siblings will soon attempt to kill each other over, say, a particular spot or mole. And the Great Mother? Whose true appearance could solve this issue with a single glance? Any Beholder who sees the Great Mother sees ''a perfect copy of themselves''. It doesn't help that she's ''completely insane'', and is trying to displace ''all other forms of life with mirrors of herself.''
** The NeutralEvil alignment is all about this as well. LawfulEvil is about doing terrible things in the service of a higher authority or cause. ChaoticEvil is about doing terrible things [[ForTheEvulz for the thrill of it]]. Neutral Evil characters do whatever they think will benefit them at any given moment, without a moment's consideration for others except for the possibility that said others might catch them in the act.%%In-universe alignment
** The ChaoticEvil ''Tanar'ri'', commonly called demons, have this attitude to separate them from the LawfulEvil ''Baatezu'', or devils. More specifically, every single demon believes itself to be the absolute center of the universe, and everything else exists for it to do with as it wills.%%In-universe alignment
** ''TabletopGame/{{Ravenloft}}'': Nearly every Darklord exhibits at least some traits of this, and the ones who claim to be serving some higher cause or [[IDidWhatIHadToDo doing what they had to do]] are usually the worst of the lot, twisting their higher cause into a celebration of their own ego regardless of the cost to others. Vladeska Drakov enforces brutal punishments and military law because she'd rather her nation be ground down to nothing in a ZombieApocalypse than admit she can't win and retreat. Elena Faith-Hold has built a despotic theocracy founded entirely on her own unwillingness to admit she could be wrong. Harkon Lukas's demand for renown and power was so foundational to his atrocities that part of his IronicHell is that nobody will ever remember or respect him. Ivan Dilisnya views the entire world as existing solely to bring him pleasure.
--->'''Vladeska Drakov's Bond:''' All who live in my domain are my troops, and they exist to further my will. Those who deny me are traitors bound for execution.
* ''TabletopGame/{{Exalted}}'':
** Malfeas is a particularly impressive example. The Demon City has to suffer a psychic fracture to comprehend that other people might exist independent of His goals and desires.
--->''Only in the grip of true madness can Malfeas consider the terrible possibility that the universe might contain more perspectives than his own.''
** Malfeas' fetich soul (a sort of living SoulJar) Ligier is very similar: his Motivation is to "share my glory with all of existence," while his Intimacies (the things he cares about, whether positive or negative) are all related to the things he's created as an UltimateBlacksmith. In other words, as a matter of game mechanics, he literally does not particularly care one way or another about anything that is not directly related to himself.
* ''TabletopGame/InNomine'':
** This is the core conceit of sorcery. Sure, there's a lot of occult bits and bobs and chanting and weird sigils, but at its core every ritual is about the sorcerer honestly believing that they have the right to force the universe to work the way ''they'' want.
** Even before he got his Word, the Demon Prince Nybbas saw himself as the main character of the universe, with everyone else just bit characters in his life. Becoming the embodiment of the Media has only worsened this.
* ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'': This is the primary characteristic of the colour Black. [[DarkIsNotEvil Not every Black character is evil]], but all are selfish.
** [[SignificantAnagram Liliana Vess]] is the most extreme of this. Even Sorin Markov feels responsibility to the people of Innistrad.
** With Liliana's move to being the Gatewatch's TokenEvilTeammate, Nicol Bolas has retaken his throne as Magic's most self-centered asshole. With the Mending, he has been rendered ''merely'' exceptionally powerful rather than the virtual god he used to be. He views this as completely unacceptable, and will go to [[TheUnfettered any lengths]], no matter how many people need to suffer and die, no matter what destruction he wreaks, to re-empower himself. He has manipulated ''entire planes'' to get what he wants.
--->''"For what I require, I would drain every world. I would devour every single one. But I start here."''
* ''TabletopGame/InNomine'': The divide between the two sides of the War is fundamentally one of selflessness versus selfishness. As such, this is a very common mindset among the forces of Hell.
** Demons are selfishness incarnate, and defined primarily by the refusal to submit or accede to anything but themselves. All demons believe, in their heart of hearts, that their personal aims and desires are the most important things in the world.
** Sorcery is based on this form of thought, so much so that it is fundamentally impossible to use it if you don't think this way. Sorcery is essentially an act of will where the sorcerer imposes his desires on the Symphony; as such, its practitioners need to honestly, genuinely believe that they're entitled to impose their will onto the rest of the world and force the universe to reshape itself to meet their ends.
* ''TabletopGame/PrincessTheHopeful'': This is ''the'' defining trait and flaw of the Court of Mirrors. Each Princess of Mirrors is told by the Queen that she is the True Heir, the one who is destined to drive out the Darkness and restore the Kingdom to its glory. But a fundamental rule of Mirrors is that the True Heir cannot have any equals, that others must by at most her lieutenants and subordinates. This is even enforced by the magic: If a Princess of Mirrors allows someone else to take the spotlight, she loses access to her Invocation until the next day, and abuse of the Invocation of Mirrors can cause the Princess to develop several different kinds of narcissistic mental disorder.
* ''TabletopGame/SentinelsOfTheMultiverse'': While a lot of the villains are at least a bit like this (there's a reason that they're ''villains''), minor villain Revenant a.k.a. Marc Benedetto is particularly extreme. After he was fired from his high-ranking position in a computing company after a profane rant of his was inadvertently broadcast, and then lost all his money in the failure of Betamax, he was given a second chance to make it big by Baron Blade, who needed someone to run his false-front company, Revocorp. Benedetto, by this point, was so convinced that the world owed him that as well as making bank as the CEO of a very successful corporation, he decided to start ''robbing'' banks in a suit of PoweredArmour as Revenant.
* In the Vs System, one of ComicBook/TheJoker's [[http://www.tradecardsonline.com/im/selectCard/card_id/131736/cards_lang/ cards]] says this: "Enough about me. Let's talk about me!"
* ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer}}'': Malekith, the Witch King. In the ''Time of Legends'' books dealing with the Sundering, when he moves into full-on obsession mode over the Phoenix Throne, he will do literally anything to get what he believes is his due -- barter with cults, assassinate the elected Phoenix King, wage a war that pushes Ulthuan to the edge of destruction, ''unravel the magical vortex keeping the daemons at bay'', it doesn't matter, as long as he gets to sit on the throne at the end of it (or, if he doesn't get the throne, [[IfICantHaveYou nobody else can either]]). Even when he ''does'' realise he's been definitively rejected from consideration, it's an IgnoredEpiphany and it takes him a matter of hours to get back into full give-me-the-throne-or-die mode.
* ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'':
** The Dark Eldar Archon Vhane Kyharc is noted to be a narcissist even by their standards, starting by first making the elite of his Kabal get their faces surgically altered to look like his (Dark Eldar society being what it is, it's a good precaution against assassination), then the rest of it (the Half-born, grown in vats to keep a strong population, instead wear masks of his face). The crowning moment would be infecting a planet with a virus that gave ''every living thing'' his face.
** In the backstory, a lot of the Primarchs have this problem, especially the ones who end up falling to Chaos. There's just something about being fifteen feet tall, the son of what is functionally a god, the leader of an army of bio-enhanced supermen, and praised across the galaxy that leads to swollen egos.
** The prevailing attitude among the Leagues of Votann is that all resources of the galaxy to belong to them, even if said resources have already been extracted, processed and stored by other cultures or species; the impact that that this "reclamation" might have on anyone using these resources isn't something that Miner Guild surveyors are overly inclined to care about. Even classifying fully functional industrial infrastructure as a very profitable concentration of harvestable resources as if they were ore veins in an abandoned asteroid is normal. In those cases, the Guild will try to trade first but, if that fails, they see the use of violence against their legitimate owners as the next logical step.
** Slaanesh is basically the Chaos god of this trope. That, and pleasure. This "pleasure" however is often highly twisted and SafeSaneAndConsensual is one of the first things to be thrown out the window when it comes between a Slaanesh devotee and something they want.
