** A recurring trap in the series is the Reverse Bear Trap, which, while meant to be a DeathTrap to escape from, is placed on a victim like a mask. The trap hooks into the victim's upper and lower jaw and will snap upwards with a great amount of force when triggered, causing an internal decapitation.

* ''Toys/{{BIONICLE}}'': Played with the Ignika. As only [[OnlyTheChosenMayWield destined beings can wear it]], any other being that so much as touch it will [[ArtifactOfDoom get cursed]].

* ''Toys/{{BIONICLE}}'': Played with the Ignika.[[MaskOfPower Kanohi Ignika]], the Mask of Life. As only [[OnlyTheChosenMayWield destined beings can wear it]], any other being that so much as touch it will [[ArtifactOfDoom get cursed]]. While none affected have directly died from the curses, they either suffer FateWorseThanDeath or get CursedWithAwesome or BlessedWithSuck. The chosen wearer, on the other hand, does have to die to use the mask, as its power requires the sacrifice of their entire life force by converting their physical mass into energy. The exception to this is Mata Nui, who doesn't ''technically'' wear the mask during the 2009 story -- [[SoulJar his spirit is bound to the mask]] and his body is an artificial facsimile created by its power, meaning he is a mask that "wears" a body rather than the other way around.
