The Bull Miraculous was taken by an OriginalCharacter calling himself Oxtoppable before Ivan could find it, though it gets reclaimed by Ladybug, Rena Rouge, and Queen Bee. The Monkey Miraculous was hidden in a pool that Kim visits, but by bad luck it's found by Lila instead when she visits the same pool.

* ''VideoGame/TheLegendofDragoon'': A rare case where the villain ''succeeding'' in it is actually a good thing for the heroes. [[spoiler:Melbu Frahma usurps Shana's role as the Moon Child -- ie the soul of the Virage Embryo -- and becomes the God of Destruction in her place. This spares the party from having to kill Shana to save the world and they have no problem with slaying Melbu Frahma instead.]]

* In ''ComicBook/{{Fables}}'', the backstory of Bigby Wolf had him nearly devouring the Green Lady. The Green Lady offered to tell him his fate if he would spare her life. After he agreed, she told him he would be defeated and devoured by a monster as vicious as him in three days. A despondent Bigby accepted his doom, until he learned from a passing turtle that the Green Lady doesn't just tell fates, she ''assigns'' them. Bigby Wolf went after the Green Lady again and threatened to devour her if she didn't remove his doom. The Green Lady did so by switching Bigby's fate with that of a nearby sorcerer to whom she had given a favorable fate. The sorcerer then suffers the doom that was supposed to be Bigby's: to be devoured by a monster as vicious as Bigby Wolf (namely, Bigby himself). Bigby then goes on to live out the sorcerer's fate: that is to say, the events of the comic.

* In ''Fanfic/AmazingFantasy'', the nature of One For All's successor is inverted from canon. Izuku doesn't meet All Might in that underpass as he's hospitalized from the spider bite. This gives Sir Nighteye enough time to pressure All Might into making Mirio his successor. However, Izuku and All Might end up meeting anyways during the Prowler incident. The Hero laments that he would have loved to make Izuku the next torchbearer had he not already given One For All. By the time Izuku arrives at school, All Might shows some clear favoritism towards him even though he's not his protégé.

* ''Fanfic/{{Becoming the Mask|Trollhunters}}'': [[spoiler:Vendel]] suspects that the Amulet was meant to go to James Lake Junior, but since the Changeling Jim "stole" his name, he got his destiny as well. However, the Amulet specifically called for "[[ExactWords Jim Lake]]", not James Lake Junior, implying that the Changeling was its intended recipient all along.



* ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'': Percival was a failed attempt to do this. The plan was to create a counterfeit Child of Prophecy wielding the [[OnlyTheChosenMayWield Spear of Selection]] used by the previous Child, but the plan hits a snag due to the fact that the weapon is degraded and will kill any fairy who wields it. Percival gets around this by being a human raised to surpass the limits of ordinary humanity.

* ''ComicBook/RobynHood: I Love New York'': Robyn has her status as the prophesied "Child of Darkness" stolen by another archer, thanks to a ritual and a drop of our heroine's blood. Normally, this would be a relieve for Robyn, since then she would avoid getting constantly harassed by members of the Dark Horde that want her to turn to evil, and bring their organization to a complete dominion of the Five Realms. That, and get rid of all the guilt that knowledge brings to her. The problem is, the woman that has done this is definitely evil, is totally on board with making said prophecy true, has a personal vendetta against Robyn, and is planning to harm many of her loved ones along the way. She manages to beat the pretender by the end of the story, but it's left unclear if the ritual has been undone.

Cinder even has the gall to claim that the power was hers by right the entire time, and Pyrrha was promised something that was never hers.

%%* ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'': Cinder Fall uses a PowerParasite Grimm to steal part of Amber's Fall Maiden powers. While Cinder is mostly just after the power, the Maidens have a key role in the fight against the BigBad Salem. Since Cinder is ''working'' for Salem, this lets Salem undermine the efforts against her. Pyrrha Nikos was supposed to get the rest of Amber's power, but Cinder brutally murders her to claim it for herself, then kills Pyrrha. Cinder even has the gall to claim that the power was hers by right the entire time, and Pyrrha was promised something that was never hers.
