Virtue is only Virtue..[Story?][Characters]

So, I remembered a phrase on Doctor Who:
“Goodness is not goodness that seeks advantage. Good is good in the final hour, in the deepest pit without hope, without witness, without reward. Virtue is only virtue in extremis. This is what he believes, and this is the reason above all, I love him."

In extremis, in dire straits, at the point of death.

It got me wondering, what would each character do in extremis?
or how would they handle it?
Tahu, he would obviously be courageous in extremis, but what else?
Any ideas?

I think when you say “Extremis”, I think you mean “Extremes”. Extremis is the thing from Iron Man 3.

No, the phrase is in Latin, so it is written in extremis.
Like Deus Ex-Machina, instead of god in the machine.

Its a wiki, but it is something.
