* ''Fanfic/CodexEquus'' has High-Roller/Mr. Scratch, a DiabolicalMastermind running a criminal empire that's been running behind the scenes for over a hundred years and is one of [[TheDreaded most feared and dangerous ponies on Equus]] at the time. However, when he finally reveals himself in person, it turns out being over a hundred years old [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome means that he's extremely elderly]] and his deathbed, only kept alive by life support. He's decidedly not happy about this, particularly because he knows [[DraggedOffToHell he's going to Hell]] when he dies. [[spoiler:So he tricks Prince Maestro, an Alicorn, into a trap and [[GrandTheftMe swaps bodies with him]] to both avoid death and become stronger than ever.]]
