* From the 3.5 ''Book of Vile Darkness'', one of the sample characters is a blue dragon named Enesstrere. While blue dragons are typicially evil, Enesstrere just wanted to keep to himself. And then he was possessed by a bodiless demon, who took over his body after a long fight, then forced him to get addicted to luhix, an extremely powerful drug with horrific withdrawal symptoms. Now Enesstrere is screwed; even if he manages to force the demon out of his body, he'll be stuck in the middle of the desert with a crippling drug addiction and no way to satisfy it (as it stands now, lesser demons in the service of his possessor bring him a dose every 24 hours). But if he ''doesn't'' break free from the possession, he's going to be used as the spearhead for a demonic invasion. It's a terrible MortonsFork that manages to make an AlwaysChaoticEvil (well, Lawful Evil) creature a TragicMonster.

* The tale of the elven goddess Eilistraee. She's described as moody and melancholy, and it's for a good reason. Eilistraee was tricked into using an enchanted bow by her mother Lolth, which shot an arrow directly at Eilistraee's father Corellon. Once Lolth's betrayal was revealed, all of the drow gods were exiled from the Seldarine. That included Eilistraee. The other elven gods found that Eilistraee was not at fault and that she could stay. [[HeroesFrontierStep Eilistraee proved her goodness]] by leaving anyway, knowing that [[GoodShepherd her people would need her]]. The whole thing is a tragedy of Lolth's making, and while the other gods still look favorably upon Eilistraee, she remains in self-imposed exile because of something that wasn't her fault. Eilistraee even sometimes reflects that her struggle against her mother Lolth [[HopelessWar sometimes seems like it can never be won]] in spite of Lolth's betrayal.

Tiamat only wants dragons serving her, so even half-dragons or dragonborn are worthless to her. And if the heroes win and either stop the ritual or kill Tiamat, then all that work they did was AllForNothing. Either way, the villains come out of the adventure with nothing but misery to show for it.

* The original Mystra. She was basically drafted into the role of goddess of magic as what's implied to be a young girl, immediately forced to deal with the aftermath of Mystryl's death and Karsus's Folly, had to constantly defend arguably the most sought-after portfolio in the Faerûnian pantheon for well over one and a half thousand years, and was then striped of her power, thrown to Toril, and imprisoned and tortured by Bane, all of which is implied to have heavily degraded her mental health. Is it any wonder she snapped at Helm? In her final moments, she even wept ''tears of anger and frustration'', before screaming in horror so loud that every realm could hear her.

* ''Fizban's Treasury of Dragons'' rewrites a lot of the Draconic creation myth, including rewriting the gem dragon god Sardior as the first creation of Bahamut and Tiamat, who was unintentionally killed by Tiamat. The book includes footnotes from Fizban, who is actually Bahamut in [[TabletopGame/{{Dragonlance}} Krynnish aspect]].
-->'''Fizban:''' Sometimes the evening sun catches a topaz dragon just right, and I forget whom I'm talking to, thinking it's my dear Sardior, returned to me at last.

In the [[DreamWorld Region of Dreams]] is a permanent Dreamscape called Anavaree, consisting of a playground atop a hill within a beautiful meadow. Its inhabitants are Ana, a little girl who is always playing, and Grumpy, an enormous bronze dragon who normally sleeps encircling the hill, unless something should threaten Ana. In truth, Ana is the dream self of a grown woman, the sole survivor of a colony ship that crashed on some desolate world, and while her stasis pod is keeping her alive, she suffered brain damage and mentally regressed to childhood. She is wholly ignorant of the situation and has been happily playing in her dreamscape for years. The dragon knows the truth, but what exactly is he going to do about it?

* The Duergar are sociopathic slavers, but when you figure out how they got that way you can't help but feel some sympathy for them. The duergar were originally a dwarven clan who started obsessing over digging deeper. The obsession gripped every member of the clan, to the point where they abandoned their temples and left the exhausted to die. The clan's stronghold was built atop a mind flayer colony, who now used their psychich powers to force the duergar into subservience. After generations of suffering and torment at the illithids' hands, Laduguer finally freed his people and led them to the surface... Where they found the dwarvish clans had turned their backs on them. The other dwarves had come to check on the Duergar stronghold, and found them empty. Worse, the temples to Moradin were abandoned. Moradin's priests had concluded that the Duergar had turned their backs on the god, and that their enslavement by the mind flayers was thus their own fault. Is there any wonder they hate Moradin?

* The Running the Realms book included with the AD&D Forgotten Realms box set had an introduction from Ed Greenwood, in which he shared some of his experiences with the setting. One in particular stands out:
--> A young lady whose name I never knew at GEN CON® Game Fair IX, announcing that her low-level paladin would try to rescue someone from 46 orcs--an attack that meant her character's certain death. Tears gleamed in her eyes as she said quietly, "My duty is clear. Farewell, my friends--it's good to have shared such glorious adventures with you."

* "Child of the Stargazer": [[spoiler: Diana and Kosar. Just as sad as Presto and Varla... and worse, because they ''don't'' get their happy ending. Even the Dungeon Master is sad at that.]]
* Brief moments at the endings of "The Treasure of Tardos" and "The Dragons' Graveyard": Speaking of [[spoiler: Dungeon Master]], the moments where [[spoiler:we find out that he is Venger's dad and is still depressed over losing him]] is surprisingly effective.
* "Quest of the Skeleton Warrior": Tkids are trapped in their own minds and facing their fears. [[ShrinkingViolet Sheila's]] biggest fear is ''being completely alone''. Seeing her curl up in a TroubledFetalPosition and about to cross the DespairEventHorizon is heartbreaking.
