* ''Series/{{Haven}}:'' Duke. He's an anti-hero, a VenturousSmuggler running afoul of Haven PD just as much for his disregard of the law as for the fact he and Nathan are childhood enemies. He gets involved with the [[DifferentlyPoweredIndividual Troubles]] by virtue of his friendship (and feelings for) Audrey, eventually forming a VitriolicBestBuds relationship with Nathan. He starts out the series with a strict rule that he "doesn't talk to cops," but becomes so enmeshed with Nathan and Audrey that by season 4, newcomer Jennifer asks if he's an auxiliary officer when Nathan delegates tasks to him. This trope takes a dark turn in later seasons, when his involvement in the Troubles leads him to [[spoiler: kill his brother]] and he finds he can't leave because TheCallKnowsWhereYouLive. Ultimately, his involvement [[spoiler: costs him his life, as he is forced to make a HeroicSacrifice after being used by a BigBad to basically become a walking bomb of Troubles.]]
