History Main / DaddysLittleVillain

* ''Series/{{CSINY}}'':
** "Identity Crisis" featured the VictimOfTheWeek, a young woman in her early-twenties, the daughter of an infamous deceased ConMan who taught her everything he knew about grifting. What got her killed was her trying to the tell her boyfriend about a large score she could make from scamming two guys who themselves were trying to pull off a scam. She tells the boyfriend that the deal went wrong, and convinced him to empty his bank account, loan a large amount from his brother, and sell anything of value to pay them off. After months of not seeing her, he recognized her in the old man costume, and when she tried to fight him off, he killed her and fled the scene.
** "Cavaliino Rampante" dealt with two of a car thief's three daughters following him into the family business. He helps them focus on stealing Ferraris and gets killed for his trouble (along with one of the girls) when they snatch the car of an internationally wanted felon.
* ''Series/ElChapulinColorado'' in TheWildWest settings has Rosa la Rumorosa (Rosa "the many rumors one") daughter and accomplice of feared gunslinger villain Matonsísimo Kid (the "Kills a lot" Kid).
* Nora Darhk was initially one of these in ''Series/LegendsOfTomorrow'', acting as TheDragon to her dad, Damien Darhk. Following Damien's death (in which he abandoned his evil plan when he realised it would kill her) she underwent a HeelFaceTurn, and ended up as Ray's {{Love Interest|s}} and [[spoiler: a fairy godmother]].
* ''Literature/Nos4a2'': Millie, Manx's daughter, is almost exactly like him and turned evil at the same time (she's the first of his vampirish kids).
* ''{{Series/Pandora}}'': Both of Harlan Fried's daughters are just as evil and as ambitious as him. [[spoiler:Even Tierney, who's revealed to be his third daughter "Odessa" in the season one finale. And unlike Regan and Cordelia, she's actually loyal to him.]]
* Invoked and inverted in the Brazilian Soap Opera "O Beijo do Vampiro" (The Vampire's Kiss). Zeca is the son of an evil vampire Boris and a human. Boris finds his son when he's about to turn thirteen, when he'll become a full vampire. Zeca is horrified about the whole ordeal. While he turns into a vampire anyway, he manages to remain a kind boy, much to Boris' frustration (doesn't stop him from trying to convince Zeca to change his ways, though). Later, as they spend time together, Boris grows to [[EvilParentsWantGoodKids just be happy as long as Zeca is and that he comes to accept Boris as his father]].

* OlderThanFeudalism: Theatre/{{Medea}} of Creator/{{Euripides}}' tragedy is an excellent illustration of what this character type is like when they are in love with the hero, and how just ''dangerous'' said characters are if you betray them. After Hera made her [[MadLove fall madly in love]] with Jason, in order to aid him she betrayed her father, cut her brother into several pieces to distract her father so Jason had more time to escape, and tricked Jason's cousins into murdering their father -- Jason's usurping uncle. Jason married her and vowed eternal love, but when he [[TooDumbToLive changed his mind]] and abandoned the [[DarkMagicalGirl very powerful witch]] to go marry someone else, she not only murdered her own children by Jason (to keep them from becoming slaves, which they would have been under Greek law at the time as she was a foreigner) but had her revenge by magically incinerating Jason's wife. She's also a major KarmaHoudini, since her fate was to become a goddess and get paired with some handsome hero in the Elysian Fields. Although it makes some sense as not only she was part-divine, and from her actions she was clearly [[JerkassGods following in the footsteps of the rest of that pantheon]], what she did was nothing but a sadistic take on what was the punishment for an oathbreaker and thus, [[ValuesDissonance for the Greeks]], Jason himself was the only one to blame.

** [[spoiler:Delphi]] in ''Theatre/HarryPotterAndTheCursedChild'' is the daughter of Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange, eagerly following her father's steps.

* Cindy Caine from [[Ride/UniversalStudios Universal's]] Theatre/HalloweenHorrorNights is the demented and equally murder-happy daughter of The Caretaker, who serves as one of the event's main icons.

* Wendy O. Koopa from the ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' games, though WordOfGod says in modern games she's not ''directly'' related to Bowser. One of the Literature/NintendoAdventureBooks centers around [[spoiler:Wendy trying to be TheUsurper by stealing her brothers' magic wands and combining them with her own to create a super-powered wand. She plans to use the wand to [[TheStarscream overthrow Bowser and rule the Koopas in his stead]]]].
* Vanessa [=VanCleef=] from ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft''. Daughter of the head of the Defias gang Edwin [=VanCleef=], Vanessa watched her father be killed by the heroes of the Alliance. In Cataclysm, she was hell-bent on revenge, and the entire Westfall questline revolves around her desire for vengeance.

* Elenor Lamb in the bad ending of ''VideoGame/BioShock2''.
* ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaPortraitOfRuin'' plays with this: while Stella and Loretta aim to take down the heroes, they do it independently of Brauner, who insists they stay out of harm's way. [[spoiler:They're also not his daughters, having been {{brainwashed|AndCrazy}} to believe that Brauner is their father.]]
* The ''VideoGame/DragonFable'' villain Sepulchure (one of the more serious bad guys in the normally lighthearted game) is revealed to have a daughter during on the Elemental Orb storylines. You may think of her as an innocent baby, but that's only unless you haven't played ''VideoGame/AdventureQuestWorlds'', AE's MMO, which shows her already a grown woman (or teenager, it's hard to tell) and takes over as the leader of the Evil faction in the game. The two even wear the Doomknight armor.
* Puchi Oguras #1 and #5 from ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendaryStarfy Densetsu No Stafy 2]]''.
* In ''VideoGame/MysteryCaseFiles: 13th Skull'', the actual villain of the story has a [[CreepyChild disturbing little girl]] who is [[spoiler:fully aware of and ''involved in'' their plan to use and then kill the protagonist]].

* ''VideoGame/{{Disgaea 2}}'': Rosalyn ''believes'' herself to be one of these, [[spoiler:but in reality she's the reincarnation of Lord Zenon, not his (or possibly her) daughter]].

* She's only his daughter in name, but Mileena has this relationship with Shao Kahn in the ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' games, especially in the altered timeline, where she becomes a twisted and evil sort of DaddysGirl. Unfortunately, despite proving herself in her "father's" eyes, and becoming empress of the Outworld after his death, she becomes a poor one; in ''VideoGame/MortalKombatX'' she is almost [[HatedByAll universally hated, both by Earthrealm and Outworld natives alike.]]
* Olivia Mann to her father Gray in ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2''. She's completely willing to help her father take over Mann Co. and its [[AppliedPhlebotinum Australium]] reserves, even if she's still in elementary school.
* The animatronic known as Baby [[spoiler:or rather, Elizabeth Afton]] to her father [[spoiler:William Afton AKA [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys3 Springtrap]]]] in ''[[VideoGame/FreddyFazbearsPizzeriaSimulator Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator]]''. She is perfectly willing to kill you alongside her father and is fully capable of doing it.
* Vaylin from ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic'' is a tragic, but twisted example. Valkorian had no intention of giving up power, and Vaylin was so potent with Force power that she was making furniture move ''in utero.'' From the time her and her brothers could stand, Valkorian was training them to be his [[TheDragon Dragons]]. When Vaylin lost her temper during a sparring session, her outburst crushed several men to death inside their armor. Valkorian, fearing she would overthrow him someday, dumped her on a [[PlaceWorseThanDeath world that had been stripped of the Force]], put her in the hands of a crazed MadScientist and equally insane cult, [[BrainwashedAndCrazy subjected her to horrific tortures and "experiments,"]] and conditioned her with a TriggerPhrase that could stop her from acting. Her mother ''tried'' to storm the prison and carry her to safety, but she was so far gone she stayed with daddy. The end result is a bloodthirsty and insane young woman who acts more like a rabid dog with Force powers and a lightsaber than a Sith.

* Maybe half the girls in the Bad Seeds, the club at [[SuperheroSchool Whateley Academy]] in the Literature/WhateleyUniverse for children of supervillains. Jobe is the child of Gizmatic, and as such is now the heir apparent and princess of Karedonia.

* Chaotrix, from ''WebVideo/SuperAcademy'', is utterly obedient to her father and completely blind to that fact.
* [[MadScientist Sieglinde Nomura]] from ''Literature/UnderTheColdMoon'', who's the daughter of [[BigBad Siegfried Gunmarsohn]], the leader of a pack of vicious werewolves. Like her father, she's a heartless sociopath who enjoys wanton murder and tormenting innocent people.
* ''WebOriginal/ObscuredEyes'': Daisy shares much of the similarities to her father Dr. Nightshade, mainly doing experiments using different plants and chemicals, and they both share the same lack of remorse for their actions.

* [[TheDragon Princess Azula]] in ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' gets much more screen time than her similarly-evil progenitor. She also serves as a foil to her brother, [[AntiVillain Zuko]], succeeding repeatedly where he fails [[spoiler: and eventually failing spectacularly, miserably, where he succeeds]].

* Rava from ''WesternAnimation/GaltarAndTheGoldenLance'' is even more full of scheming and betrayal than [[BigBad her uncle Tormak]].
* Kitten, the daughter of Killer Moth in ''WesternAnimation/{{Teen Titans|2003}}''. She steals her father's technology purely to create mayhem and get Robin's attention, and when her boyfriend Fang dumps her she latches on to Robin [[OperationJealousy purely as a trophy boyfriend to make Fang jealous]]. She unleashes a horde of man eating moths on the city. [[spoiler: Her EvilPlan is a partial success; Fang does come back to her and profess his love, but they both end up in jail at the end.]]

* Cerina in ''WesternAnimation/SkysurferStrikeForce''.
* Goldie, Goldfinger's daughter in ''WesternAnimation/JamesBondJr''
* Charmcaster has this sort of relationship with her uncle Hex in ''WesternAnimation/{{Ben 10}}''.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius'', Beautiful Gorgeous, the FemmeFatale daughter of Professor Finbar Calamitous, constantly bickers with daddy when they scheme together. Their one mission together involves kidnapping Action Hero (real and TV star) Jet Fusion.
* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'''s resident MadScientist, Dr. Doofenshmirtz, likes to ''think'' that [[MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter his daughter]] Vanessa is this. While she was completely unreceptive to the idea at first, later episodes seem to hint that [[CharacterDevelopment she might be heading in that direction after all]], even if she still denies it. [[spoiler: And ''then'' it's completely {{inverted|Trope}} in the finale when, while considering an internship with the good guy agency that serves as a counterforce to the Tri-State Area's many evil scientists, ''she'' gets ''him'' to question his own investment in villainy and directly causes his HeelFaceTurn.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/CodeNameKidsNextDoor'':
** [[FieryRedhead Numbuh 86]] is [[StrawFeminist extremely unpleasant]], feared by everyone, and is the daughter of Mr. Boss, who is one of the show's biggest villains outside Father... but she defies this trope, as she's one of the leaders of the Global KND. This doesn't stop father and daughter from getting along, with any conflict related to their jobs being kept outside the home (not that this means Mr. Boss is nice to any kids other than his own).
** [[CreepyChild The female Delightful Children]] could count as an adopted variation of this trope.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfSuperMarioBros3'' amps up this tendency in Bowser's daughter Wendy O. Koopa, as mentioned in the Video Games folder. Bowser lets all of his kids wreak havoc in the episodes where they appear, but is particularly adoring of his only daughter.
* Princess Morbucks on ''Franchise/ThePowerpuffGirls.'' Her daddy virtually finances all her schemes. (Although, he himself has never been known to do anything evil other than that.)
* Demona from ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'' would like to turn her daughter Angela into this. It's not happening.
* Star Nightingale, one of the fellow cheerleaders of the titular trio of superheroines in ''WesternAnimation/GrooveSquad'', also happens to be the daughter of Dr. Nefarious Nightingale, the film's main villain--Star also combines this trope with EvilRedhead (Star has red hair while her dad has black hair), MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter (since her dad's a MadScientist bent on world domination) and UglyGuysHotDaughter (just look at the profile pictures for Star and her dad on the character page).
* Even though it's not a biological relation (Programs do not have families in the way humans do), the dynamic between General Tesler and his more sympathetic [[TheDragon Dragon]] Paige has shades of this in ''WesternAnimation/TronUprising'', with a side order of {{Deconstruction}}. Tesler clearly prefers Paige over Pavel (who isn't very good about disguising the fact [[TheStarscream he'd like to stab Tesler in the back and take charge]]), and acts like a mentor to her. Paige believes Tesler saved her life from an ambush by Isos, and gave her a new function as a soldier when her medical facility was destroyed. [[spoiler: The reality is that Tesler slaughtered his way through the medical center, killing all of Paige's "family" to discredit the Isos. Paige was only spared because Quorra knocked her out, making Paige ''think'' she'd been ambushed. That, and Paige's talent for combat impressed Tesler enough that he found her useful. If she weren't useful to him, he'd de-rez her in a picosecond and not feel a whit of remorse.]]

* Played with in the ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'' episode "[[Recap/BatmanBeyondS3E4OutOfThePast Out of the Past]]". Talia al Ghul (pictured above) appears to have given up being a villainess and decided to fully accept that she loves Bruce. She offers him eternal youth via constant dips in the Lazarus Pit and declares that his life as a vigilante is over. Bruce undergoes the process and much of his youth is restored. He promptly declares that if he stays in the house with Talia and keeps taking dips in the pit, he'll be weaker than ever. Talia is unwilling to let him leave, and it is discovered that [[spoiler:she isn't Talia at all but rather Ra's Al Ghul himself. Ra's had Talia kill herself so that [[FamilialBodySnatcher what remained of his consciousness could be transferred to her body]]. His real reasoning for inviting Bruce was to transfer his consciousness to a more suitable form and gain all of his millions to top it off. The fact that Talia was willing to die just for her father's plan to work definitely makes her a cross between this and LoveMartyr]].
* ''WesternAnimation/DangerMouse'' (relaunch):
** Baron Greenback is given a daughter named Delilah, who is just as evil but also an awkward teenager. He tries to encourage her to come out of her shell and conquer somewhere.
** Dawn/Princess, an EnfantTerrible with a pink fixation, is later revealed to be the daughter of Augustus Crumhorn IV, a CorruptCorporateExecutive.
* Danuvia of ''WesternAnimation/{{Robozuna}}'' is the daughter of EvilOverlord Caesar Mallam (although at least in the first season, he is not seen onstage and Danuvia is the BigBad).

* Inverted in ''Anime/{{Dangaioh}}''. [[spoiler: Pai Thunder, the Big Girl from the FiveManBand, was the daughter of BigBad Garimoth and had a FaceHeelTurn once she recovered her memories. But when Garimoth told her to kill her teammate Roll before taking her back, Pai rebelled and rejoined the group.]]
* She's not his daughter, but [[BigBad the Millennium Earl]] and [[LittleMissBadass Road Kamelot]] of ''Manga/DGrayMan'' behave like this. She also behaves like this with her real father. But it's really odd since [[spoiler: she's older than he is..]].
* Rue from ''Anime/PrincessTutu'' is a normal ballet student until she becomes [[spoiler:her alter ego, Princess Kraehe. Later it's revealed that the BigBad Raven kidnapped her as a baby. Meaning he'd lied to her about her being HIS daughter]]. The Raven is definitely ''not'' going to win the "father of the year" award.
* ''Literature/ACertainMagicalIndex'': We're not entirely sure if [[spoiler:Amata Kihara]] is [[spoiler:Telestina Lifeline's father]] or if Gensei Kihara had another son, but they're both him and [[spoiler:Telestina]] really fits this trope well. [[EvilLaugh Really, really well]].
* Mariemaia Barton from the ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing'' OVA. She is (allegedly) the illegitimate daughter of Treize Kushrenada and a nurse. She tries to TakeOverTheWorld [[TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior at the age of eight]], "the way her father would have wanted."[[spoiler: Some evidence, however, suggests that she is not Treize's daughter at all, but just a random girl found and groomed by [[BigBad Dekim]] to assume the role.]]
** Treize's daughter or not, the ultimate irony is that Kushrenada was more of a WellIntentionedExtremist who ultimately believed in peace, while Mariemaia knowingly tried to start another war just after a rather devastating one had finally wrapped up.
* ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'': She's far from childish or spoiled, but Princess Kycilia Zabi still fits the trope, sharing her father Degwin's philosophy and remaining loyal to him [[spoiler:even after his death]]. In fact, her care for him is one of her few redeeming qualities.
* Subverted in ''Manga/FlameOfRecca'': Renge thinks she's this to the BigBad, but in actuality, [[spoiler: he kept her around just so he could devour her to be immune to Kurei and Recca's flames]].

* [[DarkMagicalGirl Fate Testarossa]] is the daughter of [[MadScientist Precia]]/[[SpellMyNameWithAnS Presea]], the BigBad from ''{{Anime/Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha}}'s'' first season. While Fate did everything to make her mother happy, including trying to gather the [[MacGuffin 21 Jewel Seeds]], Precia just yelled at her and punished her with [[ATasteOfTheLash whip slaps]] or with ElectricTorture. The reason why Precia treats her like that was that [[spoiler:Fate was actually a failed {{clon|ingBlues}}e and ReplacementGoldfish of her late and real daughter Alicia]]. For Precia, Fate was just a tool to accomplish her goal: [[spoiler:going to Al Hazard and finding a method to revive Alicia]].
** The [[Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaStrikerS third season's]] BigBad [[MadScientist Jail Scaglietti]] has ''twelve'' "daughters". All of them are [[{{Cyborg}} Combat Cyborgs]] created by him, and all of them treats him as their father, even the ones who have underwent a HeelFaceTurn. Eight of them qualify as [[MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughters]], since seven of them made a HeelFaceTurn in the end, while the eighth stays with one of the true four Daddy's Little Villains.
** [[spoiler:Runessa Magnus]] from ''AudioPlay/StrikersSoundStageX'' is this to Tredia Graze. In fact, [[spoiler:''she'' is the BigBad while Tredia is the GreaterScopeVillain]] and carries all of his motivations.
* ''Anime/DokiDokiPrettyCure'' has a very complicated example in Regina, the daughter of King Jikochuu. On one hand, the villains, herself included, are powered by selfishness (it's kinda in the name; "Jikochuu" (''selfish'') isn't just his name but the whole monster race) and have it as their foremost trait, and the king can force this part of her to become dominant. On the other hand, Regina learned to love as she was befriended and taught about humanity by the heroes. On the ''other'' other hand, her father is who she loves most of all. This keeps her very conflicted and going through the HeelFaceRevolvingDoor. There's one point with the heroes trying to awaken her good side and seeming to succeed, and she goes from her [[ColourCodedForYourConvenience evil colors to her good colors]] and ''keeps on attacking,'' going from doing it ForTheEvulz to doing it for her father.
* A reveal in ''Manga/OnePiece'' firmly sets [[spoiler: Charlotte Pudding]] as this for [[spoiler: her mother, Charlotte "Big Mom" Linlin]]. The girl claims to be her horrible [[spoiler: mom]]'s favorite child and is just as terrible, [[spoiler: only able to hide it MUCH better, [[BitchInSheepsClothing making herself look sweet and gentle]] until it's time to attack]]. It turns out there's a huge reason for it: [[spoiler: Pudding possesses a ThirdEye, which according to Big Mom, should help her read the Poneglyphs' content without understanding the language, like how Roger used his mysterious ability of "hearing the voices of all things" to read Poneglyphs. Plus [[AbusiveParents she psychologically abused Pudding]] [[HarmfulToMinors ever since she was a little kid]], by endlessly mocking her ThirdEye and how it looked]].
* One of the stories adapted in ''Anime/GrimmsFairyTaleClassics'' is [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donkey_Cabbages "The Magic Heart"/"Donkey Cabbages"]], where a WickedWitch is aided in her plans against the huntsman Frederick by her beautiful daughter, Lisbeth. [[spoiler: [[TheDogBitesBack It fails. Epically]].]]

* Talia al Ghul from ''ComicBook/{{Batman}}'', daughter of Ra's al Ghul. She often flip-flops between loyalty to her father and to her "beloved". There's also Talia's sister, Nyssa, who lacked any of Talia's loyalty issues by being emotionally numb (losing everyone you loved and being horrifically tortured/experimented on while interned in a concentration camp can do that sometimes) and trying to [[TheStarscream Starscream]] her dad and become leader of the League of Assassins. Don't feel bad for not having heard of her: [[StatusQuoIsGod the coup didn't last]] and [[DroppedABridgeOnHim neither did she]]. The page image shows Talia from ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'', though [[spoiler:by that point, her father [[GrandTheftMe hijacked her body]]]].

* Angel Top, the daughter of the infamous hitman Flattop from the ''ComicStrip/DickTracy'' comics.

* Princess Lotora from [[http://fanfiction.wikia.com/wiki/Hottie_3:_The_Best_Fan_Fic_in_the_World Hottie 3: The Best Fan Fic in the World]]

** [[spoiler: The mainline Discord 'adopts' the now Nightmare Diamond Tiara as his daughter and treats her this way, though her mentality following her transformation makes her not quite return it properly.]]
* Another ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' example is the fanmade song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xA9dFZJtQWc "Daddy Discord"]], which [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation interprets]] the background character Screwball as one of these (with a healthy side dose of CreepyChild who [[CreepyChildrenSinging sings]] [[VillainSong evilly]]) in relation to [[GodOfEvil her creator]].
--> '''Cause you... are my daddy Discord... and I... am a piece of you.''
* ''Fanfic/JewelOfDarkness'': [[VillainProtagonist Raven/Midnight]] to Slade.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/RiseOfTheGuardians'' fic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8751000/1/Guardian-of-Light Guardian of Light]]'' Pitch ''wants'' his daughter to be this. She has other ideas.

* ''Fanfic/RWBYScars'' presents Roman and Neo as this. Roman is a high-ranking criminal involved with the illegal Dust trade and he'd do anything for his daughter Neo. Neo is very attached to her father as well. The two act as a ParentChildTeam, though it's implied that Roman isn't comfortable with how AxCrazy his daughter is.
* In [[https://www.deviantart.com/silfofinadragon SilfofinaDragon]]'s ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara'' fanfic ''Finally Home'', the late UsefulNotes/ToyotomiHideyoshi fathers Kagehime, a [[YouKilledMyFather vengeful]] [[WickedWitch witch]].
* ''ComicBook/{{Shazam}}'' fanfiction ''Fanfic/HereThereBeMonsters'' has [[MadScientist Dr. Sivana]]'s daughter Georgia, who is a bigger psychopath than his father, to the point Sivana has to restrain her from killing the Marvel Family with her bare hands.
* [[spoiler:Malvina Devereaux]] in ''Fanfic/TheAwakeningOfAMagus'' comes from a Death Eater family... and has the mindset and evil genius enough to impress Voldemort [[spoiler:at the age of fourteen]].
* ''FanFic/TotalDramaLegacy'' has Emilia, the daughter of Alejandro (the BigBad of ''[[WesternAnimation/TotalDrama Total Drama: World Tour]]''. She's just as manipulative and ruthless as he is.

* In the Danish film ''Film/{{Pusher}} 3'', Serb drug lord Milo's daughter clearly wears the pants in the family, ordering her flustered father around to prepare for her 25th birthday party. After Milo discovers that her boyfriend is an independent drug dealer and forces him to buy his product for distribution, his daughter finds out and hardballs his price down. What a family!
* Though we don't get to see them in action, Mr. Han from ''Film/EnterTheDragon'' trained his daughters to be his most loyal guards. As Roper says upon finding out how tough they can be, "No one's more loyal than Daddy's little girl."
* ''Film/{{Sky High|2005}}'': [[spoiler:Gwen]] was raised by Stitches to be evil, and she absolutely hates whenever someone, including Stitches himself, points this out. [[spoiler:Also a rare instance of the "little villain" rather than the "daddy" being the dominant partner. In this case, though, she was already evil to begin with.]]
* ''Film/{{Yellowbeard}}'': Triola, daughter of the greedy [[GodGuise religious leader]] El Nebuloso.

* ''Film/AGoodDayToDieHard'': Irina is this towards her father [[BigBad Yuri Kamorov]].
* ''Film/DaughterOfTheDragon'' has Fu Manchu's daughter, played by the stunning Creator/AnnaMayWong.

* Angela in ''Film/MatchstickMen'' proves to be just as cunning of a ConMan as her father Roy. [[spoiler:Justified as she is an actress playing a con against him.]]
* ''Film/TheMaskOfFuManchu'': Fah Lo is every bit as evil as her father, and is completely on board with making him the new Khan. See entry under Literature below.
* Ming's daughter Princess Aura in both the classic 30's ''Film/{{Flash Gordon|Serial}}'' serials and the '80s ''Film/{{Flash Gordon|1980}}'' film, albeit in some versions she's not as cruel as her father and may even betray him in order to save Flash, who she (in all versions) lusts after him.
* Red Skull's daughter in ''Film/CaptainAmerica1990'' has a prominent role as her father's henchwoman, assassin and right hand.
* ''Film/AssassinsCreed2016'': Sophia Rikkin cooperates with her father in their quest for the Eden Apple of Granada, although she wants to "cure aggression" rather than TakeOverTheWorld it still boils down to TheEvilsOfFreeWill.

* ''Film/TheFunhouseMassacre'': Eileen is the daughter of Manual "Mental Manny" Dyer, and breaks him and several other {{Serial Killer}}s out of the Statesville Mental Hospital so they can carry out their plan to kill a bunch of people in a Haunted House Attraction. She even has her own serial killer identity, the Stitch-Faced Killer.

* ''Film/GunsGirlsAndGambling'': [[spoiler:The Girl Next Door is actually The Rancher's daughter, and has been manipulating John Smith the entire time in order to secure the mask for her father.]]

* Sonia Steiglitz is the beautiful and sadistic PsychoKnifeNut daughter of the ex-CIA chief/archaeologist villain of ''The Takers'', a modern {{Two Fisted Tale|s}} by Jerry Ahern.
-->"My mother would drink while my father was out searching for the damned [[MacGuffin Gladstone Log]]. Some nights she'd beat me because she couldn't love him. I'm twenty-six years old. I stopped playing with dolls twenty years ago. I taught myself to hurt things and feel nothing -- all so I could be with him when he searched -- ''be with him!'' It was never my mother -- I don't know if he loved her. It was always finding the Gladstone Log... the power... the power he wanted..."
* [[Literature/TheDresdenFiles Harry Dresden's]] nemesis Nichodemus has a daughter named Deirdre who is as evil and dangerous as him and [[ParentalIncest apparently his lover too]]. The RPG refers to her as ''Daddy's Little Denarian'' in her character sheet.
* Lila Zacharov of ''Literature/TheCurseWorkers'' by Holly Black is the daughter of a manipulative, murdering crime boss, and wants nothing more than to be his heir. However, she's portrayed as more of an [[AntiHero Anti-Heroine]] than a villain.
* In Creator/WilliamShatner's novel ''[[Literature/StarTrekShatnerverse Ashes Of Eden]]'', the BigBad's daughter has been brainwashed by her father into doing everything she can to kill Kirk. Why? Because her mother was killed by Klingons shortly before Kirk helped sign the peace treaty, preventing her father from exacting revenge on them. She opts to die with her father rather than let Kirk [[SaveTheVillain save her]].
* Vestara Khai from ''Literature/FateOfTheJedi'' comes from a whole society of [[EvilSorcerer Sith]], and both she and her father Gavar are major villains. [[spoiler: Then she gets into an EnemyMine with Luke Skywalker and his son Ben against an EldritchAbomination which is manipulating her people- and while Ves herself would be horrified at the idea, many fans hoped she'd make a genuine HeelFaceTurn before everything was over.]] Indeed, in ''Vortex'', [[spoiler: she saves Luke and Ben from the Sith. ''Twice'']]. Also, this trope takes an interesting turn when [[spoiler: Vestara killed Lord Taalon, who was "too far above her station", thus making her own father (and lots of other Sith) want to kill her]]. Afterwards, she decides to stick around and help Luke and Ben and [[spoiler: falls in love with Ben. They're set up to have an adorable romance... until she murders someone in a desperate bid to save Ben's life]]. While he wasn't aware of it, it [[spoiler: crossed her personal MoralEventHorizon, and she decides ThenLetMeBeEvil]].

* Phaidor, daughter of the Thern (White Martian) [[HighPriest Priest King]] from the second and third ''Literature/JohnCarterOfMars'' novels. Her dad is the head of a planet-spanning PathOfInspiration which manipulates the other Martian races into being slaves and/or [[ImAHumanitarian food]] for their people, and she's not only completely cool with it, she finds the idea of any other way of life unthinkable, and while [[VillainessesWantHeroes she's attracted to Carter]], it's mostly because he's badass and she's [[EvilCannotComprehendGood utterly dumbfounded]] by why he does the things he does. [[spoiler:Then she gets a dose of BreakTheHaughty when she finds out that ''another'' Martian race, the First Born, are using the Therns the same way the Therns use everyone else, followed shortly by Carter exposing the whole thing and toppling it. ''Then'' her dad gets offed by the First Born warlord he'd been in a very tense VillainTeamUp with, and she [[AvengingTheVillain avenges]] him before committing suicide, though [[RedemptionEqualsDeath she does express repentance in her last moments]].]]
* Belinda Contague in Glen Cook's ''Literature/GarrettPI'' series.

* ''Literature/LegacyOfTheDragokin'': [[spoiler: Inverted as Kthonia is not at all evil and her daughter Sali-Ka is the BigBad. Avenging The Villain kicks in when her daughter is killed]].
* In ''Literature/OutlanderLeander'', Signe the Scraper is this. After her mother dies she fights to take over her crime ring despite being underage. She's involved in kidnapping, slavery and murder, and goes as far as to plan the assassination of one of the country's leaders.
* Although not related by blood, DimeNovel villain Zanoni the Woman Wizard was the ward of Dr Jack Quartz, the ArchEnemy of Literature/NickCarter.
* Opal Koboi in ''Literature/ArtemisFowl''.
* In ''Literature/VampireAcademy'', [[spoiler:Natalie will do anything her father Victor Dashkov tells her to do - even drastic things, like turning Strigoi to help him get out of prison. She is his chief agent in his campaign against Lissa]].
* The teenage daughter of [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Signor Mafioso Banditto]] in ''[[Literature/RulerOfTheMagicalKeys The Island of Captains]]''. Makes her father immensely proud by helping him to snatch property from the local poor and planning to follow in his footsteps. It’s not mentioned what happens when she grows up, but she [[spoiler:creates the {{Tulpa}} that becomes the BigBad of the book]].
* Larry Peril from ''Constance Verity Saves The World'' is a Mommy's Little Villain, being the son of MadScientist supervillainess Lady Peril. Also a ''reluctant'' example, as he's long nursed a crush on the heroine and feels far too inept at command to follow in his mother's footsteps.
* Nova from ''Literature/{{Renegades}}'' is the niece of Ace Anarchy, the world's most infamous supervillain, and is dedicated to furthering his cause.
* Played with in ''Literature/{{Worm}}''. Feared supervillain [[BadWithTheBone Marquis]] is visibly shocked when he finds out his biological daughter Amy Dallon is now a beloved superhero with the [[{{Biomanipulation}} power to heal]], but ultimately seems to be content that [[EvilParentsWantGoodKids she turned out okay]]. After she undergoes a TraumaCongaLine and is sent to the same prison as him, he becomes very protective of his near-catatonic daughter, even though the other prison bosses see it as a weakness. When she starts to ([[SanitySlippage dubiously]]) recover though, he’s proud of how well she begins to assert herself amongst the other inmates. By the sequel series ''Literature/{{Ward}}'', he has happily made her his [[TheDragon most trusted lieutenant]].
* A fascinating example in the Doctor Who ''Literature/NewSeriesAdventures'' novel ''Judgement of the Judoon.'' Hope is an example of EvilParentsWantGoodKids, and knows nothing of her father's activities as TheDon. He is ''determined'' to keep it that way, and loves his little girl deeply. However, unbeknownst to him, she is also a WellDoneDaughterGirl, and became "Madam Yolanda", his archenemy in the underworld, as a way to get her father's attention. In the end, thanks to a GambitPileup, [[spoiler: she accidentally kills her father, and then is killed herself]].

Contrast PrincessClassic, DefectingForLove, EvilParentsWantGoodKids, and MafiaPrincess (unless, of course, she's being groomed to take over the family business). DistaffCounterpart to OverlordJr and VillainousMotherSonDuo.

* ''Series/GothamKnights2023'': Veronica Cartwright

[[caption-width-right:250:[[Characters/BatmanTaliaAlGhul A crafty, cruel, and cunning villain]]. [[BaitAndSwitchComparison Just like]] her [[Characters/BatmanRasAlGhul father]].]]

* ''ComicBook/AllOutAvengers'': The first issue's villain is Arrok the Seventh, queen of the Sinnarian Empire. Her father was the BigBad of the ''ComicBook/BlackOrder'' series, published a few years earlier - and now he's dead she's following in his footsteps. Not only is she just as malevolent, she's also using similar tactics (albeit on a smaller scale), with the mutagenic 'Bow of Attican' replacing the world-wrecking 'Bow of Gabriel' her father acquired.
* Sin, the [[Characters/MarvelComicsRedSkull Red Skull]]'s completely AxCrazy daughter. [[UglyGuysHotDaughter She was a looker]] until [[spoiler: in the final issue ''Captain America: Reborn'' where she gets an extreme makeover courtesy of an exploding mecha. She truly was [[ButterFace her father's daughter]] at least until Kobik repairs her face]].
* ComicBook/{{Darkseid}} has a daughter named Grail. She’s his favorite child ([[AbusiveParents for all that’s worth]]), and also the one who takes after him the most.
* In the comic book series ''ComicBook/{{Empire}}'', Golgoth, supreme villainous overlord of the world, has only one joy in life: his sweet, innocent daughter. Only [[spoiler: she's not as innocent as he thinks, as she's been sleeping with one of his lieutenants and eventually convinces him to betray her dad for her. Then it turns out she had been manipulating the guy all along, intentionally setting him up to be caught and executed just for her own amusement, and the whole thing was just a way of expressing her disturbing obsessive feelings toward her father]]. Even worse, [[spoiler: she poisoned her own mother and made it look like a suicide because she felt she was making Golgoth soft]].
* ComicBook/{{Shazam}} (or ComicBook/CaptainMarvel, since this example goes way back into the Golden Age) has a good example of the difference between this and MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter. Marvel's archenemy Sivana has four kids. Two of them are [[MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter beautiful and good, siding with Captain Marvel.]] While his other two children are ugly and evil like him. Though in some appearances, his beautiful children were bad as well.
* ''ComicBook/{{Planetary}}:'' Flashbacks explains how Doc Brass fought mysterious [[LawyerFriendlyCameo Fu Manchu-like Hark]] and eventually convinced him to join the side of the good guys. Hark's daughter Anna, however, had been raised as a villain, survived her father and became a thorn in the heroes' side.
* ''ComicBook/ItTakesAWizard'': [[spoiler: The [[DamselInDistress little girl]] the CorruptCorporateExecutive valued so much that he busted the hero out of his impending death sentence so he could rescue her? Not only did she join the BigBad in the [[BigAppleSauce wasteland of Manhattan]], her father supported her decision to do so. Sending the hero on this mission was all part of a grand EvilPlan -- to [[GaiasVengeance avenge Gaia]] by [[ImAHumanitarian dethroning humanity from its place at the top of the food chain]]]].

** In ''ComicBook/AllStarSuperman'', [[Characters/SupermanLexLuthor Lex Luthor]] has a niece, [[PerkyGoth Nastalthia]], who's eighteen, [[{{Omniglot}} speaks 30 languages]] and wants to conquer the world. She also appeared in UsefulNotes/{{the Bronze Age|OfComicBooks}} ''ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'' comics and was nicknamed Nasty.
* Alexandria von Fogg from ''ComicBook/PS238''.
* Characters/{{Ma|rvelComicsMagneto}}gneto's daughter the Characters/ScarletWitch was an inverted example; she was originally a villain and one of the original Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, as was his son [[Characters/MarvelComicsQuicksilver Quicksilver]]. But their hearts weren't in it, and they eventually turned against him. They had been [[ComicBook/TheAvengers Avengers]] for ''quite'' some time before realizing who their father is (and he didn't know, either).
* Winnowill from ''Comicbook/ElfQuest'' was vaguely {{retcon}}ned to be Haken's daughter, though the hinting started pretty early on in the series. She really takes after him... and once she starts living inside Rayek's mind, she flesh-shapes his body to look exactly like her father's.
* ''ComicBook/XMen'' villain Mastermind had two daughters with [[MasterOfIllusion similar powers]] who have been villainesses. The younger one, Regan, even briefly joined the X-Men under the guise of a HeelFaceTurn before showing her [[BeneathTheMask true colors]].
* ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'': Ana Kravinoff, the daughter of [[Characters/MarvelComicsKravenTheHunter Kraven the Hunter]], has followed in her father's footsteps despite only being [[LittleMissBadass 12]].
* Sybil Mayhew, daughter of ComicBook/{{Blackhawk}}'s EvilCounterpart Death Mayhew, who follows in her father's footsteps after his death.
* Trigon ''wants'' his daughter [[Characters/TeenTitansNewTeenTitans Raven]] to be this. How well he succeeds is DependingOnTheWriter. Most of the time, she resists... It's when she ''can't'' that her [[ComicBook/TeenTitans teammates]] are screwed. In the ComicBook/{{New 52}}, Raven [[AdaptationalVillainy was reintroduced as a villain]] and therefore ''is'' this, willingly.
* The ''ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica'' have had to deal with two of these. First is the daughter of The Mist, the arch enemy of the original ''ComicBook/{{Starman}}'', who took her father's place after his death. The second is the appropriately named Junior, daughter of the first [[ComicBook/SecretSix Ragdoll]].
* [[Characters/BatmanTaliaAlGhul Talia Al-Ghul]] from ''ComicBook/{{Batman}}'', daughter of [[Characters/BatmanRasAlGhul Ra's Al-Ghul]]. She often flip-flops between loyalty to her father and to her "beloved". There's also Talia's sister, Nyssa, who lacked any of Talia's loyalty issues by being emotionally numb (losing everyone you loved and being horrifically tortured/experimented on while interned in a concentration camp can do that sometimes) and trying to [[TheStarscream Starscream]] her dad and become leader of the League of Assassins. Don't feel bad for not having heard of her: [[StatusQuoIsGod the coup didn't last]] and [[DroppedABridgeOnHim neither did she]]. The picture shows Talia from ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'', though [[spoiler: by that point her father [[GrandTheftMe hijacked her body]]]].
* Darla Aquista from ''ComicBook/Robin1993'' started out as a MafiaPrincess who wanted to be involved in her daddy's business but [[EvilParentsWantGoodKids he wanted to shelter her from that life]]. After she was "adopted" and given powers by the the super-villain Johnny Warlock she delved right into acting as a super-powered murderer on his behalf, even taking up the name "Warlock's Daughter". A little while later, though, she joined the supernatural hero team Shadowpact.
* Played with for Duela Dent, who introduced herself as the Joker's Daughter in the 1970s, but flip-flopped between heroism and villainy; her first "evil" acts being elaborate pranks (which included pretending to be the daughter of other Bat-villains) meant to get Robin's attention so he could induct her into the Comicbook/TeenTitans, as a way to turn over a new leaf, but her own craziness meant she remained trapped in the HeelFaceRevolvingDoor (when the writers bothered to remember her, that is). It would eventually be revealed that she ''is'' indeed the Joker's Daughter... but to the Joker from pre-New 52 Earth-3, a.k.a. the Jokester, who was a hero, and her looniness is because she was constantly and subconsciously universe-hopping.
* ''ComicBook/TheSuperiorFoesOfSpiderMan'' has somehow managed to combine it with EvilParentsWantGoodKids - Beetle's father [[spoiler: Tombstone]] is proud his daughter wants to be a criminal but doesn't approve of her being a supervillain. He believes [[CutLexLuthorACheck she'll be able to steal much more as a lawyer]].
* In the ''ComicBook/MarvelComics2'' future-verse, we get a DistaffCounterpart of Electro ([[BerserkButton don't call her Electra just because she looks like Electro]]; her name is ''[[InsistentTerminology Aftershock]],'' dammit!) who wants to follow in her father's footsteps, but by now, Electro has long since retired and doesn't want his daughter making the mistakes he did when he was her age. Subverted with a different character named Aftershock in the main continuity, who claims to be Electro's daughter who had inherited his powers. When confronted about it, Electro pointed out she is around seventeen and [[ComicBookTime he had powers only for thirteen years]]. [[spoiler: Turns out she was brainwashed into believing to be his daughter.]]
* ''ComicBook/TwoThousandAD'': In ''ComicBook/ThargsTerrorTales'', one short strip is about a goth chick who leads a bunch of {{Vampire Vannabe}}s to the CreepyCemetery so her vampire father can eat them. Tharg commends their family values.
* ''ComicBook/FreddyVsJasonVsAsh'': Freddy Krueger's daughter Kathryn aka [[spoiler:Maggie Burroughs]] has [[FallenHero fallen to the darkside]] and is now working with her father. Not only that, she's become a daddy's girl in [[ParentalIncest all the wrong ways]]...
* In ''ComicBook/TheFurtherAdventuresOfIndianaJones'' #13, one of Dr. Jones' more trouble prone female students turns out to be the daughter of a notorious mobster and a willing participant in his criminal schemes, and at least some of her klutziness is an act intended to keep Indy distracted from what her father is doing.

* ''Series/{{Arrow}}'' has [[Characters/BatmanRasAlGhul Ra's Al-Ghul]] as the BigBad of Season 3 but of his two daughters Nyssa gets more prominence than Talia. The same season flirts with the idea that Thea will fall under the influence of supervillain Malcolm Merlyn (having recently discovered she's his illegitimate daughter) but she eventually rejects him and returns to her brother Oliver, by which time (ironically) Malcolm has become the next Ra's.

* Star Nightingale, one of the fellow cheerleaders of the titular trio of superheroines in ''WesternAnimation/GrooveSquad'', also happens to be the daughter of Dr. Nefarious Nightingale, the film's main villain--Star also combines this trope with EvilRedhead (Star has red hair while her dad has black hair), MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter (since her dad's a MadScientist bent on world domination) and UglyGuysHotDaughter (just look at the profile pictures for Star and her dad on the character page for ''Characters/GrooveSquad'').

* ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack''; [[spoiler: Aku seems thrilled with the idea of having a daughter and a heir once he discovers his dark magic sired Ashi, especially when he is able to control her and use her as a weapon against Jack. Sadly, Ashi does not approve, and is helpless to resist as he controls her like a puppet]].
* Played with in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond''. [[Characters/BatmanTaliaAlGhul Talia Al-Ghul]] (Pictured above) appears to have given up being a villainess and decided to fully accept that she loves Bruce. She offers him eternal youth via constant dips in the Lazarus Pit and declares that his life as a vigilante is over. Bruce undergoes the process and much of his youth is restored. He promptly declares that if he stays in the house with Talia and keeps taking dips in the pit he'll be weaker than ever. Talia is unwilling to let him leave and it is discovered that she isn't Talia at all but Ra's Al Ghul himself. Ra's had Talia kill herself so that [[FamilialBodySnatcher what remained of his consciousness could be transferred to her body.]] His real reasoning for inviting Bruce was to transfer his consciousness to a more suitable form and gain all of his millions to top it off. The fact that Talia was willing to die just for her father's plan to work definitely makes her a cross between this and LoveMartyr.

* The ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' collective fan character Eggatha plays this role for series antagonist Dr. Eggman. While her actual origin varies (her being a robot he made or her being his blood relative), she essentially fulfills the role of a daughter figure for Eggman and also shares his vast intelligence, hot head, and disdain for Sonic.

[[caption-width-right:250:A crafty, cruel, and cunning villain. [[BaitAndSwitchComparison Just like]] her father.]]

* ''LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex'': We're not entirely sure if [[spoiler:Amata Kihara]] is [[spoiler:Telestina Lifeline's father]] or if Gensei Kihara had another son, but they're both him and [[spoiler:Telestina]] really fits this trope well. [[EvilLaugh Really, really well]].

* In the ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'' episode "The Conscience of the King," the daughter of a former villain in hiding uses their cover as a performing theater troupe to kill off the remaining witnesses to her father's previous crimes as a way of "protecting" him from recrimination. Her father is extremely displeased with her when he finds out, having hoped to start a legitimate new life in their cover identities, and appalled that the blood on his hands had irreversibly stained her as well.

* ''ComicBook/{{Darkseid}}'' has a daughter named Grail. She’s his favorite child ([[AbusiveParents for all that’s worth]]), and also the one who takes after him the most.

* Rue from ''Anime/PrincessTutu'' is a normal ballet student until she becomes [[spoiler:her alterego, Princess Kraehe. Later it's revealed that the BigBad Raven kidnapped her as a baby. Meaning he'd lied to her about her being HIS daughter]]. The Raven is definitely ''not'' going to win the "father of the year" award.

* ''ComicBook/{{Planetary}}:'' Flashbacks explains how Doc Brass fought mysterious [[LawyerFriendlyCameo Fu Manchu-like Hark]] and eventually convinced him to join the side of the good guys. Hark's daughter Anna, however, had been raised as a villain, survived her father and became a thorn in the heroes's side.

* ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaPortraitOfRuin'' plays with this: while Stella and Loretta aim to take down the heroes, they do it independently of [[OverprotectiveDad Brauner]], who insists they stay out of harm's way. [[spoiler:They're also not his daughters, having been {{brainwashed|AndCrazy}} to believe that Brauner is their father.]]

She's the daughter/niece/granddaughter/etc of an EvilOverlord, who shares said EvilOverlord's {{ambition|IsEvil}}, cunning, and cruelty. She could be anything from a simple SpoiledBrat to an Overlord in waiting. She's also likely to be a [[GratuitousPrincess Princess]] (since [[GarnishingTheStory even villainy is improved with that]]), although she will still prefer wearing [[EvilWearsBlack black]] or dark colors over [[PrincessesPreferPink pink]].

Contrast PrincessClassic, DefectingForLove, EvilParentsWantGoodKids, and MafiaPrincess (unless, of course, she's being groomed to take over the family business). DistaffCounterpart to OverlordJr

* ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'': She's far from childish or spoiled, but Princess Kycilia Zabi still fits the trope, sharing her father Degwin's philosophy and remaining loyal to him [[spoiler:even after his death]].

* [[DarkMagicalGirl Fate Testarossa]] is the daughter of [[MadScientist Pre]][[HotScientist cia]]/[[SpellMyNameWithAnS Presea]], the BigBad from ''{{Anime/Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha}}'s'' first season. While Fate did everything to make her mother happy, including trying to gather the [[MacGuffin 21 Jewel Seeds]], Precia just yelled at her and punished her with [[ATasteOfTheLash whip slaps]] or with ElectricTorture. The reason why Precia treats her like that was that [[spoiler:Fate was actually a failed {{clon|ingBlues}}e and ReplacementGoldfish of her late and real daughter Alicia]]. For Precia, Fate was just a tool to accomplish her goal: [[spoiler:going to Al Hazard and finding a method to revive Alicia]].

* ''Film/DaughterOfTheDragon'' has Fu Manchu's daughter, played by the stunning Anna May Wong.

* ComicBook/XMen villain Mastermind had two daughters with [[MasterOfIllusion similar powers]] who have been villainesses. The younger one, Regan, even briefly joined the X-Men under the guise of a HeelFaceTurn before showing her [[BeneathTheMask true colors]].

* ''The ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica'' have had to deal with two of these. First is the daughter of The Mist, the arch enemy of the original ''ComicBook/{{Starman}}'', who took her father's place after his death.

Subverted with a different character named Aftershock in the main continuity, who claims to be Electro's daughter who had inherited his powers. When confronted about it, Electro pointed out she is around seventeen and [[ComicBookTime he had powers only for thirteen years]]. [[spoiler: Turns out she was brainwashed into believing to be his daughter.]]

* ''Film/ConanTheBarbarian2011''. Marique, witch daughter with WolverineClaws of Khalar Zym.
* ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises''. Bane with Talia Al Ghul [[spoiler: AKA Miranda Tate]] who wants to finish her Dad's EvilPlan because he was killed in [[Film/BatmanBegins the first movie]].
* ''Film/Kajillionaire'': Two petty thugs don't want their daughter to have a better life. Instead, they want her to join in the family business.
* Angelica Teach from ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanOnStrangerTides'' is TheDragon for her father, [[TheDreaded the infamous Blackbeard]]. [[spoiler: Little does she know [[UnwittingPawn he's just using her]] [[ImmortalitySeeker to achieve his quest for immortality.]]]]

* ''Film/ThorRagnarok'': [[Characters/TheMightyThorGiants Hela]] had a grand time with her old man, [[spoiler:Odin]] as a GalacticConqueror, drenching entire civilizations in "blood and tears". Then he turned good and they had a falling out.
* ''Film/TheFunhouseMassacre'': Eileen is the daughter of Manual "Mental Manny" Dyer, and breaks him and several other [[SerialKiller Serial Killers]] out of the Statesville Mental Hospital so they can carry out their plan to kill a bunch of people in a Haunted House Attraction. She even has her own serial killer identity, the Stitch-Faced Killer.

* One of the weirdest examples of this Trope occurred in Lorelei's backstory in ''Fanfic/ShadowchasersTorment''. Her father was a [[EvilSorcerer Doomdreamer]], a senior member of the [[ReligionOfEvil Cult of Tharizdun]]. When an omen from his god foretold that any disciple he took would betray him, he decided to raise his own offspring as one, summoning a [[HornyDevils succubus]] for the express purpose of carrying his child, and then training his daughter almost since infancy. While Lorelei became an incredibly powerful Doomdreamer in her own right, her father didn't escape the prophecy; ''she'' betrayed him and in one of the worst ways, [[ForcedTransformation turning him into a cat]] and them keeping him like a pet. Despite this, he had absolutely no regrets - [[SoProudOfYou she turned out just the way he had wanted his daughter to be.]] (Of course, Doomdreamers are all ''[[AxCrazy completely]]'' [[AxCrazy insane...]]

* ''Film/{{War}}'': Kira, the Yakuza boss's daughter, is a DarkActionGirl who is eager to please her father by working as his lieutenant. She briefly works alongside Rogue while not realizing that he's PlayingBothSides.

* Characters/{{Ma|rvelComicsMagneto}}gneto's daughter the Characters/ScarletWitch was an inverted example; she was originally a villain and one of the original Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, as was his son [[Characters/Avengers60sMembers Quicksilver]]. But their hearts weren't in it, and they eventually turned against him. They had been [[ComicBook/TheAvengers Avengers]] for ''quite'' some time before realizing who their father is (and he didn't know, either).

* ''Anime/DokiDokiPrettyCure'' has a very complicated example in Regina, the daughter of King Jikochuu. On one hand, the villains, herself included, are powered by selfishness (it's kinda in the name; "Jikochuu" (''selfish'') isn't just his name but the whole monster race) and have it as their foremost trait, and the king can force this part of her to become dominant. On the other hand, Regina learned to love as she was befriended and taught about humanity by the heroes. On the ''other'' other hand, her father is who she loves most of all. This keeps her very conflicted and going through the HeelFaceRevolvingDoor. There's one point with the heroes trying to awaken her good side and seeming to succeed, and she goes from her [[ColorCodedForYourConvenience evil colors to her good colors]] and ''keeps on attacking,'' going from doing it ForTheEvulz to doing it for her father.

* Sin, the ComicBook/RedSkull's completely AxCrazy daughter. [[UglyGuysHotDaughter She was a looker]] until [[spoiler: in the final issue ''Captain America: Reborn'' where she gets an extreme makeover courtesy of an exploding mecha. She truly was [[ButterFace her father's daughter]] at least until Kobik repairs her face]].

* ''Franchise/{{Superman}}'':

** In ''ComicBook/AllStarSuperman'', ComicBook/LexLuthor has a niece, [[PerkyGoth Nastalthia]], who's eighteen, [[{{Omniglot}} speaks 30 languages]] and wants to conquer the world. She also appeared in UsefulNotes/{{the Bronze Age|OfComicBooks}} ''ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'' comics and was nicknamed Nasty.

* Trigon ''wants'' his daughter ComicBook/{{Raven}} to be this. How well he succeeds is DependingOnTheWriter. Most of the time, she resists... It's when she ''can't'' that her [[ComicBook/TeenTitans teammates]] are screwed. In the ComicBook/{{New 52}}, Raven [[AdaptationalVillainy was reintroduced as a villain]] and therefore ''is'' this, willingly.

* ComicBook/TaliaAlGhul from the Franchise/{{Batman}} comics, daughter of ComicBook/RasAlGhul. She often flip-flops between loyalty to her father and to her "beloved". There's also Talia's sister, Nyssa, who lacked any of Talia's loyalty issues by being emotionally numb (losing everyone you loved and being horrifically tortured/experimented on while interned in a concentration camp can do that sometimes) and trying to [[TheStarscream Starscream]] her dad and become leader of the League of Assassins. Don't feel bad for not having heard of her: [[StatusQuoIsGod the coup didn't last]] and [[DroppedABridgeOnHim neither did she]]. The picture shows Talia from ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'', though [[spoiler: by that point her father [[GrandTheftMe hijacked her body]]]].
* Darla Aquista from the ComicBook/{{Robin series}} started out as a MafiaPrincess who wanted to be involved in her daddy's business but [[EvilParentsWantGoodKids he wanted to shelter her from that life]]. After she was "adopted" and given powers by the the super-villain Johnny Warlock she delved right into acting as a super-powered murderer on his behalf, even taking up the name "Warlock's Daughter". A little while later, though, she joined the supernatural hero team Shadowpact.

* [[spoiler:Malvina Devereaux]] in ''Fanfic/TheAwakeningOfAMagus'' comes from a Death Eater family... and has the mindset and evil genius enough to impress Voldemort [[spoiler:at the age of fourteen.]]

* ''Film/ThorRagnarok'': ComicBook/{{Hela}} had a grand time with her old man, [[spoiler:Odin]] as a GalacticConqueror, drenching entire civilizations in "blood and tears". Then he turned good and they had a falling out.

She even has her own serial killer identity, the Stitch-Faced Killer.

* Vestara Khai from ''Literature/FateOfTheJedi'' comes from a whole society of [[EvilSorcerer Sith]], and both she and her father Gavar are major villains. [[spoiler: Then she gets into an EnemyMine with Luke Skywalker and his son Ben against an EldritchAbomination which is manipulating her people- and while Ves herself would be horrified at the idea, many fans hoped she'd make a genuine HeelFaceTurn before everything was over.]] Indeed, in ''Vortex'', [[spoiler: she saves Luke and Ben from the Sith. ''Twice'']]. Also, this trope takes an interesting turn when [[spoiler: Vestara killed Lord Taalon, who was "too far above her station", thus making her own father (and lots of other Sith) want to kill her]]. Afterwards, she decides to stick around and help Luke and Ben and [[spoiler: falls in love with Ben. They're set up to have an adorable romance... until she murders someone in a desperate bid to save Ben's life]]. While he wasn't aware of it, it [[spoiler: crossed her personal MoralEventHorizon, and she decides ThenLetMeBeEvil.]]

* A fascinating example in the Doctor Who ''Literature/NewSeriesAdventures'' novel ''Judgement of the Judoon.'' Hope is an example of EvilParentsWantGoodKids, and knows nothing of her father's activities as TheDon. He is ''determined'' to keep it that way, and loves his little girl deeply. However, unbeknownst to him, she is also a WellDoneDaughterGirl, and became "Madam Yolanda", his archenemy in the underworld, as a way to get her father's attention.

** Played straighter with [[spoiler:Princess Eska]], and subverted with [[spoiler:her brother [[DudeLooksLikeALady Desna]], who is a sort of RareMaleExample]]. Eventually, though, their father [[spoiler:goes too far, past the point where they must draw the line]].

* Kitten, the daughter of Killer Moth in ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans''. She steals her father's technology purely to create mayhem and get Robin's attention, and when her boyfriend Fang dumps her she latches on to Robin [[OperationJealousy purely as a trophy boyfriend to make Fang jealous]]. She unleashes a horde of man eating moths on the city. [[spoiler: Her EvilPlan is a partial success; Fang does come back to her and profess his love, but they both end up in jail at the end.]]

* Played with in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond''. ComicBook/TaliaAlGhul (Pictured above) appears to have given up being a villainess and decided to fully accept that she loves Bruce. She offers him eternal youth via constant dips in the Lazarus Pit and declares that his life as a vigilante is over. Bruce undergoes the process and much of his youth is restored.

The fact that Talia was willing to die just for her father's plan to work definitely makes her a cross between this and LoveMartyr.

* Princess Morbucks on ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls.'' Her daddy virtually finances all her schemes. (Although, he himself has never been known to do anything evil other than that.)
