This only ends up disturbing Natasha more, because [[spoiler:it's all fairly in-character for Tony]].

* [[spoiler:Nicole]] from ''Webcomic/GhostsOfTheFuture'' is an utterly ruthless and callous [[AIIsACrapshoot AI]] who destroyed most of Earth’s heroes long ago and performs warped experiments for amusement. She’s also quite friendly and cheerful, acting unfailingly polite to people regardless of whether they’re friend or foe. Even a brutal BreakingSpeech she gives Sonic is said in a casual, happy manner, as if she genuinely doesn’t understand how it could be considered hurtful.

He's also a ruthless SocialDarwinist who believes entirely in HYDRA's agenda of placing 'the strong' above 'the weak', as well as being both utterly merciless and beyond deadly in close quarters combat as Greyback, [[spoiler: the aged up kids and later, T'Chaka and T'Challa]] found out.

** Alexander Pierce fits this perfectly, being perfectly friendly towards Lucius in their meeting, later charming Harry and [[EvilDetectingDog Freki and Geri]], and promising, once Harry mentions that Nick Fury (a close friend of his mother) hasn't dropped by for a visit, or even sent a message, to arrange for one, ordering it if necessary. In other words, he acts like a kindly grandfather. He also puts Lucius on edge, since both are aware that the other will dispose of them [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness as soon as they are no longer necessary]]. He also [[spoiler: stealthily manipulates Harry into emotional turmoil so he can discreetly get a reading on his powers]] and doesn't even bat an eyelid when Lucius mentions that he plans to kill Harry, merely remarking that it's mildly regrettable, since he rather liked Harry.
** Lucius is a borderline example - he's capable of being perfectly polite to everyone, but this is usually flavoured by condescension and his point of view sections reveal that he only cares about himself and his family. As far as he is concerned, everyone else can go hang.
** Sinister tends to speak in a CreepyMonotone, and is a full time resident of the UncannyValley who regards humanity and other species as his personal petri dish. However, he's also usually polite, and almost never raises his voice... until [[spoiler: Maddie]] breaks his control. Then he loses it a bit.

* Vulpes Inculta of ''FanFic/ADeadWorld'' is soft-spoken and polite for a Legionary; you could almost forget that he would have absolutely no problem with crucifying an entire village just to make a point. Which he did.
* Ulquiorra in ''FanFic/AHollowInEquestria'' is definitely this. Despite his blunt nature he's capable of being polite to others and willing to engage in thought provoking conversations over a cup of tea. Despite being polite he has no qualms with killing whatever gets in his way. He'll even pay you a compliment before ripping your heart out of your chest in front of your friends.

** Admittedly, while Tarantulas may seem like a total psycho, he does have the occasional gentlemanly side with the patients he's horribly mutilated. It's mostly based on his mood.
** [[BigBad Oblivion's Shadow]] also has shades of this. He's fairly notable as being the most polite, well-mannered and reserved person in the entire series. He's fairly comparable to Deoxys from Latias' Journey, except [[spoiler: that he has shades of being a WellIntentionedExtremist.]]
** Barbedo is unusually for this trope not an antagonist; he was the most vicious and monstrous pirate to ever live, and he got worse after he and his crew were [[CursedWithAwesome cursed with immortality]]. To everybody's surprise, Barbedo's friendly enough to Team Aurabolt when they meet him, [[spoiler: handing over the Star Badge animating him without any fuss, agrees to a fight for his ship and takes his defeat to Tiny in a drinking contest with good humor.]] He's unapologetically brutal and loves being the worst sort of pirate, but his friendly demeanor and fondness for his [[TrueCompanions crewmates]] make him likable in spite of that.
