* A [[EvilOverlord king]] is given a prophecy that a child born on a certain day will lead to his downfall. He has every infant born on that day in the kingdom killed; however one, a boy of noble blood, survives and is rescued by a peasant couple. They raise him as their son until he comes of age and makes war on the king, who is revealed to have actually been [[LukeIAmYourFather father]], and the FinalBattle ends with them slaying each other in single combat. Standard HeroicFantasy story right? Except that's the story of Mordred, one half of Myth/{{Arthurian Legend}}'s BigBadDuumvirate.

** Norse Gods in the original myths are generally depicted as far more human than Gods of other ancient civilisations or modern adaptations of the myths, including the Creator/MarvelComics version. Most notably they were explicitly not immortal, and it is a plot point in many myths that the Gods can not only die in battle but also of sickness and even old age unless they regularly consume magic apples that grant them youth and health.
