He then steals their crops, poisons their waters and fields and leaves some undead for good measure, turning thousands of people who had benefitted from expelling him and the Ghoul tribe who took him in from that territory, into refugees. He decides to get payback on the Mirg nation for attacking his new home by sending an army of undead, their own army at that, to harass the villagers and forcing them to evacuate.The first example is the townspeople who watched in enjoyment as his mother burns at the stake, so he uses his magic to make their fields, walls and houses just, walk away, leaving them helpless. The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time: Our protagonist can do this if he thinks his enemies deserve punishment without killing them.Nagisa: Takaoka-sensei, thank you very much. And sometimes, if the villain is too dangerous to let free, he is trapped in a Tailor-Made Prison along with the people he hates most in the world, or with a view of something he despises or which upsets him. In some situations, the hero may decide that being left to live with the consequences of his actions is the most fitting punishment for the villain. Still, more might refuse to take a life themselves but won't deny others - especially those who have been wronged by the villain - their own chance. For others, the hero may force them into a mundane life where they go through a daily mental Humiliation Conga. Similarly, some villains lose it because Good Hurts Evil and Evil Cannot Comprehend Good, so the hero's mercy is a kind of Brown Note.

If they are doing it for revenge, their aim will be to make the hero feel what they've gone through. Much like a torturer using a Cool and Unusual Punishment, the hero does forgive the villain, or at least spare his life, but does so only to inflict suffering and/or enact some poetic justice. Heroes rarely kill their enemies: they either practice Thou Shalt Not Kill or have a moral friend remind them " If You Kill Him, You Will Be Just Like Him!" if they ever get too tempted. This is "Cruel Mercy" - sparing one's enemy (or, in some examples, even actively keeping them alive) as a punishment rather than a reward.

Rather than draw characters himself, Dorsi manages the team of artists, making sure they’re sticking to the image Gracia, known to the GDE team as “Lou,” desires. Gracia then contacted Pasquale Dorsi, a freelance animator and illustrator from New Jersey to act as art director and influence character design. After exchanging ideas with Gracia, Asken became the first to join the project, causing GDE to reach nationwide status. Instagram is where he saw the work of 18-year-old Neev Asken, an animator from Los Angeles.
