* ''Fanfic/TheTwilightMan'':
** The PointOfDivergence is that Kars and Esidisi [[SparedByTheAdaptation failed to wipe out the rest of their race]] when they tried to stop Kars from threatening the world with his Stone Mask. As a result, Waamu is never raised by Kars and Esidisi but instead by the surviving Night Men, and he grows up to hunt down Kars and Esidi both to avenge his [[YouKilledMyFather deceased parents]] and stop Kars from using his stone mask to turn innocent daymen (normal humans) into vampires.
** [[spoiler:As it is implied that Lisa Lisa is now [[RelatedByTheAdaptation Jonathan and Erina's daughter by birth]], her childhood has changed from being raised by the Hamon-master Straizo to being raised by Erina and Speedwagon]].
* ''Fanfic/WhereThereIsStrifeThereIsPride'': Played with for the Homunculus Pride, who is Father's first and oldest homunculi but frequently masquerades as the adopted sons of high-ranked Amestris officials. In ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'', he takes the role of Selim Bradley, the son of his "younger brother" Wrath and his wife Mrs. Bradley, which reinforces Pride's duty to Father while he tired to suppress his human love for his adopted mother [[spoiler:until his final moments]]. In the fanfic, he takes the role of Maes and Gracia Hughes's adopted son to spy on Maes and his companion Roy Mustang. The genuine love of the Hughes family [[BecomingTheMask causes Pride to become more of the good son Selim Hughes]], which leads him to [[spoiler:stop Envy from killing Maes and pulling a HeelFaceTurn to save his family from Father's plan]].

* ''Fanfic/OnceUponADecemberNight'': In canon, April had a normal upbringing until the events of the series' first episode. Here, she was kidnapped alongside her parents when she was a toddler, and lost both of her parents while escaping (her mother that same night, her father later when the Kraang killed him via experimentation).

She has a ''much'' less traditional upbringing, but she's kept safe and clearly adored by her adopted family.

* ''ComicBook/TheFlash'': Downplayed. Originally, Barry had a happy childhood with both of his parents before becoming The Flash. Post-''The Flash: Rebirth''[[note]]No relation to [[ComicBook/TheFlashRebirth the tie-in for]] ''ComicBook/DCRebirth''[[/note]], however, Eobard Thawne went back in time and killed Barry's mother, which Barry's father took the fall for. While Barry retains most of his personality, he is a sadder, more driven character due to this, and his trauma over this backstory leads him to almost break the universe in the infamous ''ComicBook/{{Flashpoint|DCComics}}'' storyline.

* In the ''Webcomic/{{Walkyverse}}'', Beef and Sal were SwitchedAtBirth, with Beef being raised by the Walkertons as Walky's twin brother, and Sal by the Waters, presumably in the South, before learning the truth as an adult. In ''Webcomic/DumbingOfAge'' Sal was raised by the Walkertons as TheUnfavorite ... until they decided to send her OffToBoardingSchool. [[InSpiteOfANail This hasn't really resulted in any notable changes in her personality]] -- acts cool and mysterious, occasionally violent, hates using doors, finds her brother exasperating, understandably resents Linda Walkerton. Since the boarding school was in Tenessee, she even has the same accent as Sal Waters. On the other hand, what little we've seen of Dumbiverse Beef suggests that without Walky, he's a JerkJock.
