* Arfur Gregorio in ''VideoGame/BaldursGateIII'' was a rich toymaker who invented the setting's first talking teddy bears. His EstablishingCharacterMoment is trying to have some hired thugs assault a family of refugees who had been squatting in his mansion while he was away [[KickTheDog (as opposed to simply giving that money to the parents so they could find lodgings elsewhere)]], and if the party does a bit of digging they can discover that he's been blackmailed to plant bombs in his toys for the [[ReligionOfEvil cult of Bane]]'s FalseFlagOperation. They can then extort him, kill him, or force him to turn himself in (upon which he's [[HeKnowsTooMuch immediately killed in his cell by the Banites]]).
