* In ''[[TroublesOfMiddleEarth ToME]]'' it is possible to kill friendly quest-relevant {{NPC}}s with ranged attacks although you always "stop yourself" if you try to hit them in melee. The NPC will always resurrect immediately with no harm done. Rescuing a princess from monsters with blasts of area magic that kills the princess herself several times over is therefore a perfectly valid tactic. However, if you manage to get an NPC buried in rock with an earthquake, they are gone for good... until you leave the level and return.
** Also, [=NPCs=] are not affected by traps, neither are you by your own traps (which affect monsters, of course).

* In the ''VideoGame/{{Fallout}}'' games there's always a chance of the member of one party hitting the member of his own party or another party in crossfire, posing a further chance that the parties will in-fight, or previously neutral parties will join in with the bloodshed because a stray bullet hit them. As every ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 1}}'' player knows, you do not stand in front of Ian whilst in combat.
** Sulik took up Ian's baton with relish in Fallout 2, proving capable of hitting you with an SMG burst even if you were standing behind him. Just give him a Super Sledge and save yourself the facepalming.
** In ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 3}}'' you can get sneak attack criticals on your allies if they're distracted by an enemy, and also hit them in VATS (which you cannot cancel once initiated) when targeting enemies. Especially troublesome with Dogmeat, who frequently jumps up to head level to attack. This isn't helped by the game's [[HitboxDissonance interesting hitboxes]].
** One quest in ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 2}}'' - protecting Grisham's brahmin cattle - stands out in terms of messed-up faction scripting. The wild dogs will intially ignore you and go for the cattle, but if a dog takes damage from your team they attack you instead. If you accidently hit a brahmin, the herd won't turn hostile as you'd expect... but your companions will decide that the herd is on the hostiles list and start decimating it, even ignoring the dogs to do so. Since you receive less pay for each lost brahmin, you'll reload the game a lot. That, or leave your party behind for a while.
