* ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' is a downplayed example. He always lives by his own rules and disregards authority, particularly in some of the western-made continuities. However, in the main continuity, he never goes against the law for the heck of it, nor does he have a problem with society in general.

* Toph from ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'', in spite of -- or because of -- her upper-class background and upbringing. Which makes what she became between the end of ATLA and the time of ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra''[[note]]A police chief[[/note]] all the more ironic. Though from what we saw in TLOK flashbacks, her daughter Suyin took up the torch.

crosswicking Exocolonist and adding No Umbrellas Allowed

Added DiffLines:

* ''VideoGame/IWasATeenageExocolonist'': As a child, Dys scorns Sol if the latter tells him that their parents will protect them from monsters. This gradually intensifies during his growth, to the point of [[spoiler:disappearing after setting off a bomb on the walls]] little after turning eighteen if left to his own devices.

She also paints in public to defy AVAC's law against it, [[spoiler:and she sets the Bunker of Freedom of fire in revenge against the Stabilizer for scamming and harming her friend Bokho.]]

* ''ComicBook/{{Hellblazer}}'''s John Constantine is the very definition of a Rebellious Spirit. Indeed, this is literally his cosmic role - he and his family line are the "laughing magicians", whose purpose is to pervert the efforts of both Heaven and Hell in acting superior to normal people.
* ''ComicBook/LokiAgentOfAsgard'' chronicles the title trickster's attempts to follow this part of the Loki story... by defying the ''other'' part of the Loki story where they go evil and wreck everything.

* Franchise/SpiderMan is generally a rogue free spirit hero who defies the local authorities constantly and performs acts of vigilantism. He also generally scoffs at help and is a pure solo act hero contrasted to the Avengers. Nowadays, he's more mature and dedicated to working together with people and being more considerate of the law.
* Kenton of ''ComicBook/WhiteSand'' continuously goes against his society's expectations (AsskickingLeadsToLeadership, power supersedes ability etc.), mostly to show his father that he's wrong.

* Azaka Kokutou from ''LightNovel/TheGardenOfSinners'' is this explicitly (highlight of this is her unabashedly declaring [[BrotherSisterIncest her love for her brother]] and moving away to be adopted by her uncle and to enroll in a boarding school specifically so Mikiya will stop seeing her as his little sister), thanks in no small part to her origin being ''taboo''.

%%* [[Creator/MarxBrothers Harpo Marx.]]* ''Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019'': Emma Russell, and [[DownplayedTrope to a lesser extent]] Madison Russell, both have rebellious streaks. When things get serious, Madison doesn't hesitate to steal a keycard and defy a Monarch scientist's shouts, [[spoiler:nevermind stealing the ORCA from a group of armed mercenaries whom are holding her under house arrest]]; and she makes her dislike of Jonah as clear as she can without getting herself into serious trouble when she's with him. Emma's bio reveals that she has a history as a maverick environmentalist who was arrested a few times, and she's willing to forego Monarch's legal efforts to combat the government [[spoiler:and turn traitor to Monarch altogether as well as forsake most of her morality]], if she thinks it'll stop the world from making a disastrous mistake and will make her son's death matter.
