History Main / AllianceWithAnAbomination

Of course, with an ally so high on the SuperWeight scale, the character risks becoming an InvincibleHero or [[InvincibleVillain Villain]]. As a result, the alliance will either be brief, strained, conditional, rivaled (meaning there is an enemy of roughly equal or greater power to contend with), or has some bad consequences. This may be done through a DealWithTheDevil (with all that entails), but not necessarily.

** Played with in ''The Delirium Brief'': [[spoiler:Nyarl'ath'hotep (Prime Minister of Great Britain) pretends to want to pull an Enemy Mine with Cthulhu (whose servants have taken over America) against the Cold Ones, who are even higher on the SuperWeight scale and [[HorrifyingTheHorror utterly terrifying to them]], but this is a ploy to get one of his servants close enough to destroy Cthulhu's avatar on Earth and weaken his greatest rival for world domination]].

** ''ComicBook/MoonKnight'': In the 2022 run, Moon Knight runs into the House of Shadows -- a [[GeniusLocus sapient]] EldritchLocation that [[SapientHouse manifests through possessing buildings]] and offers it a choice; either become his new base, or be exorcised. Grateful for the choice and eager to finally be lived in voluntarily, the House of Shadows becomes Moon Knight's new home, the Midnight Mansion.

** ''Franchise/FantasticFour'': [[Characters/MarvelComicsGalactus Galactus]] is a CosmicEntity and PlanetEater who after being fought off by the ComicBook/FantasticFour, promised not to eat the Earth and occasionally works with them if need be. This is also played with his heralds, who are mortal beings that agreed to work with him to find worlds to devour as part of a bargain he'd leave their planets alone.

* ''Anime/PokemonTheSeries'': Several of [[Film/{{Pokemon}} the movies]] involve Legendary Pokémon, some of whom are basically {{Physical God}}s, aiding the heroes against the BigBad. This is especially the case for Giratina, a ghost-dragon Pokémon that even dwells in an EldritchLocation.

** An entity known as the [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Eater of Souls]] was summoned into a human MeatPuppet to serve as a LivingWeapon but ended up in The MenInBlack's management instead as [[spoiler:Mr. Angleton]]. It turned out that HumanityIsInfectious and the Eater picked up more of a sense of honour and fair play than its handlers ever had.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Ninjago}}'': In Season 3, Pythor who is a {{Snake Pe|ople}}rson allies himself with the Overlord, an EldritchAbomination and the BigBad of the series assisting the Overlord in obtaining a physical body and defeating the Ninjas. According to WordOfGod, this would've ended badly for Pythor had the Overlord succeeded at his plans.

* ''LightNovel/{{Overlord|2012}}'': What everyone considers the Baharut Empire to have done (including the Emperor himself) after they ask for Ainz' help with their yearly battle with Re-Estize ([[GoneHorriblyRight in fact, a ploy by the Emperor to gauge Ainz' power and convince the other nations to gang up on him]]). After Ainz summons several Lovecraftian monstrosities by murdering a third of the opposing army, everyone thinks the Emperor asked Ainz to do something so horrible. [[spoiler:After the Empire becomes Ainz' VoluntaryVassal, everything starts going a lot better for the Empire's citizens due to the constant threat of immediate and unstoppable annihilation being lifted from them.]]

Compare and contrast DidWeJustHaveTeaWithCthulhu, where a normal person and an EldritchAbomination associate casually or become friends, and DidYouJustRomanceCthulhu, where this goes beyond a mere alliance/friendship. Compare BargainWithHeaven for dealing with more obviously "heavenly" entities. May result from SummonBiggerFish, or from a combination of DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu and DefeatMeansFriendship. Distinct from PalsWithJesus in that this refers to a team with an actual task to fulfill. If the hero is abominable themselves, they're a HorrifyingHero.

* Present in ''Fanfic/TheNightUnfurls''. Any instance of [[spoiler:Kyril cooperating with someone, be it [[TheAlliance the Seven Shields]] from the original, or [[DefectorFromDecadence a trio of rogue Black Dogs]] from the remake, counts as this]]. Out of all the people he worked with, [[spoiler:[[TheHighQueen Celestine]] and [[LadyOfBlackMagic Olga]] are the two people with a comparatively higher status than the rest, yet are ultimately "lower beings" when compared to Kyril's status as a [[EldritchAbomination great one]]]].

** ''ComicBook/{{Venom}}'': The titular character is a symbiote -- an eldritch parasite created by a dark god for the purpose of corrupting and consuming all life in the cosmos -- who sided with humanity as an AntiHero, 121315albeit with brief stints as a super-villain.

* In ''VideoGame/TheDarkness'' Jackie Estacado willingly uses the power of the Darkness possessing him to complete his RoaringRampageOfRevenge even though with kill it grants it more control over him.

* In ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'', [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld Evangeline]] [[LadyOfBlackMagic A.K. McDowell's]] membership in [[BadassCrew Ala Alba]] is seen as this by basically anyone who knows Evangeline's true identity, because Evangeline is the Magic World's boogeyman. To Ala Alba itself, Evangeline is not an abmoination but their classmate.
