History DarkIsNotEvil / WebOriginal

* Music reviewer ToddInTheShadows, as [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin his name suggests]], is almost always seen in darkness. While he is quite [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]] and prone to fits of rage when he hears particularly bad music, he's a pretty nice guy.

* The Darkness Faeries in ''{{Neopets}}''. Although even other fairies consider them evil, most of them are misunderstood and mischievious at worst, although they still seem to have an edge in the "evil" ratio as a group. There are many Neopians that even suspect that Queen Fyora herself is a Darkness Faerie promoted as queen, due to her name ending in the same sound as Jhudora and Jennumara, two Darkness Faeries (at least one of them, Jennumara, is actually evil. Jhudora might be just a bigass poser that might hug puppies when nobody else is looking... Or not).

* The monsters of ''{{Mortasheen}}'' are grotesque, no doubt, but very few of them can actually be considered evil. In fact, quite a few of them were genetically engineered to be helpful to society.

** To elaborate [[spoiler: The protagonists father was a Sargent that died in the line of duty and the ghost was a loyal solider that died alongside him keeping a promise he made to him to protect his daughter should something ever happen to him. On her 18th birthday he deems his final order complete and leaves her a letter before crossing over.]]

* Louie and [[spoiler: Ian Von Helson]] from ''GaiaOnline'', as they are vampires.

* In the ''LeagueOfIntergalacticCosmicChampions'' Sailor Evil, aka Shadow Senshi, had darkness based powers, but was good... it was just her last name that was Evil.

* ''Literature/TheZombieKnight'' center around Garovel and Hector, a [[TheGrimReaper reaper of souls]] and his [[CameBackStrong deathless servant]]. The reason Garovel bothered to take a servant was to [[DontFearThReaper have a means of saving lives]], a role Hector enthusiastically embraces.
** Strongly averted for some other reaper servants, though; some of them subscribe to a ReligionOfEvil called Abolish, whose goal is to ''[[DestroyAllHumans wipe out humanity]]''.

* ''Literature/TheZombieKnight'' center around Garovel and Hector, a [[TheGrimReaper reaper of souls]] and his [[CameBackStrong deathless servant]]. The reason Garovel bothered to take a servant was to have a means of saving lives, a role Hector enthusiastically embraces.

** There are a lot of other examples in Neopets. [[CuteWitch Sophie]], Prince Jazan and [[HellishHorse Nightsteed]]...

* {{Literature/Worm}}. Okay yes it may centre around villains whose only fully heroic member is [[TheFettered the protagonist herself]], however it is repeatedly shown that even at their worst none of The Undersiders are truly evil or anything close to it. However unlike other such villains in the series their powers are a collection of nightmare-inducing horrors that even includes someone with literal darkness powers. [[spoiler: He is a villain in order to get money and a respectable facade so he can take care of his younger sister away from his extremely messed up mother. He worries about his lack of social awareness and is shown to forget how unpleasant his darkness is as he can see, hear and feel normally in it.]]

* In the {{Web Serial Novel}} ''[[http://thezombieknight.blogspot.com The Zombie Knight]]'', Garovel is a {{Grim Reaper}}, but a case of {{Dont Fear The Reaper}} is soon established. Also, the protagonist himself may qualify, as he uses gruesome powers of zombification to help people in serious danger.

* The monsters of ''{{Mortasheen}}'' are grotesque, no doubt, but very few of them can actually be considered evil. In fact, quite a few of them were genetically engineered to be helpful to humans.

* The CreepyPasta "Love" and "Sim Albert" feature hauntings by ghosts that [[spoiler: actually turn out to be benevolent.]]

** Then you have the [[{{Mordor}} Darigan Citadel]], who were GoodAllAlong in the first war. They only attacked Meridell because they stole the orb; however, [[RousseauWasRight Meridell did not mean any harm and was trying to bring prosperity to their own people.]] At least, if you take [[FatBastard King Skarl's]] word. When [[CompleteMonster Lord Kass]] took over after [[NobleDemon Lord Darigan's]] death, however...

* ''WebOriginal/{{ARCHON}}'''s [[http://www.archonseries.webs.com/loreraces.htm extra lore]] states that the Culled, despite being undead, viciously fought against their former {{Necromancer}} masters in order to prevent other people from being cursed as they were.

* In ''Roleplay/TheGamersAlliance'', some of the demons such as Omaroch and Ronove are not as bad as one might think. The [[TheOrder Forgotten]] are not as villainous as the [[CorruptChurch Clergy of Mardük]] even though both worship the dark god Mardük.
