Basic Trope: A character slaughters others to rescue someone.
- Straight: Bob kills 50 guards to save Alice from a Hellhole Prison.
- Exaggerated: Bob runs in a straight line and destroys everything he comes in contact with
- Downplayed: Bob patiently prepares a scheme to recover Alice from her predicament, and stealth's his way to her location, killing if he has no other choice
- Justified: Alice's safety is Bob's Berserk Button
- Inverted: Bob cuts his losses and doesn't bother trying
