History ButtMonkey / FanWorks

[[AC: {{Dragonball}}]]
* In ''DragonBallAbridged'', Raditz is pretty much this to Vegeta and Nappa. So much so, that they use "a Raditz" as their measuring unit. They can even grow monsters that are exactly the same strength, rendering him completely useless. Needless to say, he's not very happy about it at all.

* ''Fanfic/KoujaNoSenshi'' also has a few of these. [[Disney/TheGreatMouseDetective Fidget]] is one of the most notable versions of this.

[[AC: {{Manga/Saki}}

* [[FanFic/DigBuildLive Steve?]] has, thus far in the series, died four times on the first few nights (to the same Skeleton, no less), been assigned humiliating and degrading tasks by the Testificates (he at one point had to chase a chicken in a chicken suit, which he couldn't get in time, forcing him to hide in the well at night), and then he loses his home because someone bought the land his house was at.

[[AC: DeathNote]]

* Krysta from ''Fanfic/MyLittleUnicorn'' . An entire chapter is dedicated to her getting constantly wet in the fight with a water monster.

* In ''Fanfic/ThePrayerWarriors''[[note]]A crossover between Percy Jackson, Harry Potter and the Kane Chronicles[[/note]], [[Literature/PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians Grover]] is one even more than in canon. He tends to die the [[BackFromTheDead most]] [[DeathIsCheap often]], and gets some of the most [[CruelAndUnusualDeath painful]] [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath deaths]] at that, such as getting eaten alive by insects, having his legs broken and getting [[NauseaFuel disemboweled by a spear]], or being "[[DemonicPossession demon]] [[RougeAnglesOfSatin processed]]" by Stalin and then stabbed in the throat by his former ally Jerry. What qualifies him as this more than anything else is that this treatment continues even after his inexplicable HeelFaceTurn between ''The Evil Gods Part 1'' and ''Threat of Satanic Commonism''.

* Meta example: In ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' fanfics, Rainbow Dash is as prone to TheWorfEffect as in the show (which is lampshaded in the VideoGame/GodOfWar crossover ''Bridled Fury''). She's also frequently the DesignatedVictim in {{Dark Fic}}s such as ''FanFic/{{Cupcakes}}'', or otherwise prone to being injured, crippled, or even killed off for the sake of drama.

* TD of ''FanFic/{{The Non-Bronyverse}}'' often ends up in all manner of unfortunate situations. Sometimes they're his fault, but more often than not it's because the universe seems to hate him.

* ''Franchise/DonkeyKong'' is constantly dying on [[http://www.youtube.com/user/ILVGwebmaster The Toad Show]]. Almost-literal Butt Monkey!

* [[CrossRegion Pikachu]] is this. He never stays concious after one hit and once knocked himself out by jumping after a submerged target and electrocuting himself. This was [[EpicFail after said target had already lost.]]

[[AC: TheLionKing]]

* In ''Fanfic/ThePrayerWarriors''[[hottip:note:A crossover between Percy Jackson, Harry Potter and the Kane Chronicles]], [[PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians Grover]] is one even more than in canon. He tends to die the [[BackFromTheDead most]] [[DeathIsCheap often]], and gets some of the most [[CruelAndUnusualDeath painful]] [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath deaths]] at that, such as getting eaten alive by insects, having his legs broken and getting [[NauseaFuel disemboweled by a spear]], or being "[[DemonicPossession demon]] [[RougeAnglesOfSatin processed]]" by Stalin and then stabbed in the throat by his former ally Jerry. What qualifies him as this more than anything else is that this treatment continues even after his inexplicable HeelFaceTurn between ''The Evil Gods Part 1'' and ''Threat of Satanic Commonism''.

* To a given extent, [[TokenGoodTeammate Linda]] in ''Manga/DeathNote'' fanfic [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7292991/1/Xanatos Xanatos]], having been on the receiving end of a HeroicBSOD, an [[SkirtsAndLadders accidental]] PantyShot, [[FelonyMIsdemeanor moral discontent]], and [[DrivesLikeCrazy Matt's driving]].

[[AC: PercyJackson]]
* In ''Fanfic/ThePrayerWarriors'', [[PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians Grover]] is one even more than in canon. He tends to die the [[BackFromTheDead most]] [[DeathIsCheap often]], and gets some of the most [[CruelAndUnusualDeath painful]] [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath deaths]] at that, such as getting eaten alive by insects, having his legs broken and getting [[NauseaFuel disemboweled by a spear]], or being "[[DemonicPossession demon]] [[RougeAnglesOfSatin processed]]" by Stalin and then stabbed in the throat by his former ally Jerry. What qualifies him as this more than anything else is that this treatment continues even after his inexplicable HeelFaceTurn between ''The Evil Gods Part 1'' and ''Threat of Satanic Commonism''.

* In ''New Champion Evangelion'', a fic written by someone who doesn't like Evangelion in general and Shinji in particular, Shinji gets this treatment taken UpToEleven. He is often insulted and physically abused by the GaryStu AuthorAvatar Ekaj, and in one scene, Misato, while trying to get him to come back to NERV, openly tells him she hates him and only needs him as a pilot.

[[AC: MassEffect]]
* ''Fanfic/IngloriousBoshtets'', a ''MassEffect'' fanfic, has Tali, the [[OnlySaneMan Only Sane Woman]] of her crew of idiots and {{Jerkass}}es, getting this a lot, and whenever something crazy happens, at least one of the crew (often Prazza, who's usually the cause of the crazy) will pin the blame on her.

* In the "X Meets {{WesternAnimation/My Little Pony|FriendshipIsMagic}}" series of videos, Lyra and Bon-Bon are usually portrayed as the butt monkeys whenever they appear.

* In ''WeddingPeachAbridged'', it seems that Limone is punished for his competence.

* ''FanFic/TurnaboutStorm'' has [[VisualNovel/AceAttorney Phoenix Wright]]. He already is a butt monkey in his home series, and the inhabitants of [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Equestria]] seem to be very aware of that. Case and point: While he's there he manages to get {{stealth insult}}ed by ''[[ShrinkingViolet Fluttershy]]'' and [[PinkIsForSissies mocked for the absurd girliness of the Equestrian Attorney Badge]] he has to carry around by '''''Pinkie Pie'''''; and that's just the start.

* Many characters have their moments in ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6138952 The Ultimate Disgaea Truth or Dare]]'', but Laharl and Mao get this the worst.
