First mentioned by [[Burnscar]] to her friend [[Labyrinth]].<ref name="11c">"I- before I knew it, the Slaughterhouse Nine had found me.  Shatterbird recruited me.  And now I'm stuck.  I'm trapped.  You know there's a kill order out on me?  If I try to quit, either the Nine or the cops will off me.  So I keep going, I work for them, and it all just gets worse."<br><br>"Surrender?  Go to the birdcage?" - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/06/18/interlude-11c/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 11c]]</ref> [[Miss Militia]] recommended that the [[Undersiders]] and [[Travelers]] kill the captured [[Cherish]] rather than turning her over.<ref>I could make out Miss Militia shaking her head.  “I’ll be blunt, Skitter.  I’m not Armsmaster.  I don’t have a stake in personal glory or renown.  I’m not going to pussyfoot around, either.  Put a bullet in her skull and be done with it.  There’s a kill order on them, nobody’s going to charge you for murder.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/08/18/snare-13-7/ Excerpt] from [[Snare 13.7]]</ref>

While perusing a stolen PRT database [[Blasto]] found out that he had a pre signed kill order if his creations started self replicating.<ref name="I19">
:Blasto, Real Name Unknown<br>
:Classification:  Tinker 6 (sub: master 5, blaster 2, shifter 2, brute 2); plants.<br>
:Disposition: Villain (B)<br>
:Last Known Location:  Boston (Allston area, east).<br><br>
:Crime lord of East Allston since est. date of April 2009.  No subordinates.  No past history as a subordinate.  Criminal history indicates cap of second degree murder, tendency to mass damage to property and persons.  Produces uncontrolled lifeforms that are incapable of replication.  ''Adversarial relationship with Accord (#13151), Spree (#14755) and Chain Man (#14114).''<br><br>
:Note:  High risk of Class-S classification.  Should creations self-propagate, kill orders are pre-authorized.<br>[...]<br>No big surprises on the possible kill order.  He’d been made aware of it some time ago, and had grumbled, groaned and grudgingly avoided making any lifeforms that could breed in the years since. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/02/28 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 19.x]]</ref>

[[The Undersiders]] were at risk of getting a Kill Order. Given their activities leading to them taking over the underworld of Brockton Bay and fending off several [[heroes|heroic]] attempts to dislodge them.<ref name=19.3>“I know,” I murmured, “But it wasn’t a good moment.  We don’t need to make enemies of the Triumvirate, and we don’t need a kill order put on our heads.”<br><br>“Miss Militia wouldn’t really,” Tattletale said.<br><br>“That so?” I asked.  “Or is that another one of your educated guesses?”<br><br>“Educated guess,” Tattletale said.<br><br>“Let’s not forget that there’s other capes with a reason to hate us, and provoking their bosses might motivate them to get on Miss Militia’s case about that kill order and cleaning up Brockton Bay.  If an order comes down from above, it doesn’t matter if she’s willing to kill us or not.  Let’s do our best to avoid seeming dangerous.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/02/26 Excerpt] from [[Scourge 19.3]]</ref>

As an S-class threat, [[Echidna]] was immediately under a kill order due to the devastation it could wreck.
===[[The Timeskip]]===
As the fallen were escalating their criminal activity one longtime member; [[Seir]], kidnapped and assaulted a women earning him a Kill Order.<ref name=6.1e1>“It’s Seir!” Narwhal called out.  “He had a kill order.  If you’re willing to kill, this is a time it’s okay!”<br>[...]<br>The Mathers family kidnapped people, and Seir had taken a kidnapping victim for a ‘wife’, to use a loose definition of the term.  She was one of the ones who had escaped, and her story had been one of a few things that had marked the turn in the wider public perception regarding the Fallen.  After that, and some similar stories, the public and started to see them less as detestable pranksters and more as the horrific cult they were. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/04/14 Excerpt] from [[Pitch 6.1]]</ref><ref name="R3">It should be stressed that some aspects (costumes) are going to be played up or played down depending on what they're trying to do and what family branch you're working with.<br>[...]For the degree of crime & violation of the unwritten rules, definite evolution leading through the timeskip, with a couple of distinct groups living on the fringes and acting as the less-publicly-visible core/fallback/backup for the looser group. - [https://redd.it/86hzu1 The Evolution of the Fallen] ([[Wildbow]], Reddit.com, 2018-03-23)</ref>

The [[Amnesty]] essentially removed all standing kill orders. Those who have earned them were likely to be imprisoned regardless.
===Early-[[Ward]]===
During the [[Mathers Compound Assault|attack on the Fallen Compound]], [[Narwhal]] informs the heroes about [[Seir|Seir's]] obviated Kill Order. Using it as justification for lethal force.<ref name=6.1e1/>

===Post-[[Goddess' Takeover]]===
After a series of maimings/kidnappings, [[Breakthrough]] demands from [[Citrine|mayor Wynn]] to issue kill orders for [[Cradle]] and his accomplices. She halfheartedly green-lights lethal force, but without guarantees of any formal support.
