** In fanfics that are villainizing both Ron and Ginny, you can expect this to be extended to their mother, Molly Weasley. She will be portrayed as a manipulative SocialClimber who instigated all of Ron and Ginny's wrongdoing, arranging for Harry to befriend Ron and teaching Ginny how to brew love potions so that she can use them on Harry. Sometimes, it will be revealed that Molly herself used love potions to get Arthur and still uses them to keep him in her thrall, turning her into a character vile as [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil Merope Gaunt]]. Almost inevitably, Molly will be doing all this in cahoots with an evil Dumbledore (see above), and he will be the real mastermind behind it all.

** In Literature/TheBible, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esau Esau]] was a rival to his brother Jacob, but nowhere near an outright villain (and remember, Jacob tricked ''him'' out of ''his'' birthright). He even forgives Jacob when they meet again as adults.[[note]]Jacob did give him a lot of livestock though.[[/note]] However, since he was considered to be the ancestor of the Edomites, enemies of the Israelites,[[note]]The Edomites didn't exist as a nation by the first century, but they were considered by the rabbis to be the ancestors of all the nations and people that have persecuted Jews throughout history, including [[Literature/BookOfEsther Haman]] and Rome[[/note]] he was given a HistoricalVillainUpgrade. According to Literature/TheTalmud, he was a [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking rapist, murderer, and he denied God]]. He also [[KickTheDog tried to prevent Jacob being buried]] with Abraham and Isaac in the Cave of the Patriarchs, claiming that as firstborn he had the right to be buried there.
* An in-universe example in the book ''Literature/{{Penance}}''. Dolly, one of the girls who committed the murder at the center of the book, is an obsessive "Creeker", a fan of two school shooters, Matty and Brian. The Creeker fandom portrays Matty and Brian's victims in as bad a light as possible, reality be damned--by all evidence these kids were perfectly nice and at worst a little insensitive sometimes, but if you only learned about the massacre through Creeker fanfic you would think they were vicious bullies who practically ''forced'' Matty and Brian to shoot them.

** Blitzo also gets this treatment as much as Stolas as well, most of them doing it because of toxic behavior towards Moxxie and Millie in Season 1 and has become more of the main focus as of Season 2 that M&M fans had a problem with. An example of this put in effect is the Absolutions of Hell wrote by Rileyopal and OptimuzYT2022 when they took Blitzo negative qualities being turned up to eleven, with Blitzo ending up going from respecting Millie to allowing Martha cook Millie during the Murder Family rewrite.

** Justified in that the thieving, mischieving and destroying antics of kenders are shared with goblins, who at the time of the books were written were AlwaysChaoticEvil monsters!

* Lara Croft's character in the Core Design era of the ''Franchise/TombRaider'' games gradually changed her into becoming more snarky and morally dubious (partly due to the developers [[TroubledProduction getting tired of making ''Tomb Raider'' games constantly without a break). Fans critical of ''VideoGame/TombRaiderIII'' depict Lara as being a cold blooded selfish killer who will happily kill anyone that gets in her way and giving no shits about anyone or anything other than the artifacts she's hunting down. Most fans will use the finale cutscene that shows Lara killing a helicopter pilot to steal his helicopter to prove their point on Lara's viciousness. While Lara does kill, she's usually attacked first (mostly from wild animals and trigger happy guards). Lara is also seen showing concern towards two people who are in clear distress (Tony's hallucinations and an Aussie soldier whose leg got eaten) and even offers helping one of them escape their predicament. Most fans tend to ignore Lara's empathetic display in those scenes.

* ''WesternAnimation/HazbinHotel'': While Alastor mostly gets the DracoInLeatherPants treatment, the fandom can go the opposite direction too as some fans and FanWorks portray Alastor as an irredeemable CompleteMonster who's worse than Adam or even Valentino. While Alastor is ''not'' a good guy in the slightest, these fans ignore Alastor's own twisted but resolute code of morals such as his hatred of rapists, his unwillingness to hurt children, him ultimately keeping his word to Charlie and protecting the Hotel however in self-interest it may be, and his genuine friendship with Rosie and Niffty.
