* Hanzo the Salamander from ''{{Naruto}}''. He implanted the gland of a poisonous salamander in himself, making his touch and even his breath toxic to others. He wears a mask partially to protect others from his breath and partially to protect himself in case, by freak chance, he gets hit in the side where the gland is, because rupturing unleashes a cloud of poison so strong even he can't take it. He can also summon a much larger salamander with its own poison breath.

If they aren't evil, they'll usually get far, ''far'' away from anyone who they might hurt, like a modern day Medusa or king Midas... sans gold. If they're ''really'' lucky they'll have enough control of their power/curse to turn it on and off, or at least be able to live in urban areas by wearing full body outfits or hazmat suits.

No, if you have anti-flea medicine for your dog feel free to use it on your dog. They rarely require professional expertise to apply


* Another RealLife example, although on a less creepy note, some anti-flea medicines can effectively make a dog who takes these regularly be a walking flea poison trap. The evidence of this is finding dead fleas on the dog--presumably, they tried to bite and then died upon contact. (yes, this is about my Pomeranian again, but I assume it works on other dogs that way). '''[[color:red:DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME, TROPERS!]]'''
** So only give the dog the anti-flea medicine at the vet?
*** Unless you're already a MadScientist with a cute little dog super hero costume[[hottip:*:(Flea Fightin' Fido to the Rescue!)]], yes.
**** Why would you need to be a MadScientist to give your dog medicine that was prescribed and made by someone else? Although the dog superhero whose power is that fleas die when they touch him/her would be an interesting story. Another note is that this is a good example of how UniversalPoison isn't realistic, since the stuff is mainly lethal to fleas (although you wouldn't want to let your dog overdose on it, like any medicine).

* Kagero the Kunoichi in ''NinjaScroll'', whose blood was suffused with poison, effectively turning her entire body into an assassination-weapon. Even a touch from her could be lethal, and doing anything beyond that is enough to break down even the NighInvulnerable. One of the villains, whose body is apparently made entirely from rock, knocks her out and starts frenching with her (obviously intending to rape her when he's got more time), and then gets into a fight with the hero. A few minutes in, the rock-dude basically just starts falling appart, as the girl's poison catches up with him...

* The Darkspawn of ''DragonAge''. Their very blood is poisonous and those who survive being infected by its taint become thralls of the Darkspawn and the Old Gods that call to them. The Grey Warden's Joining inoculates the survivors against the more immediate and nasty effects of the Taint; however, their version of the Taint still allows other Darkspawn to sense their presence, and in thirty or so years the Taint will overwhelm them anyway. The disease they spread affects wildlife and the environment as well leaving wastelands populated by blighted horrors in their wake. [[spoiler: In ''Awakening'', should you choose to spare a Darkspawn Messenger and give him a chance to prove his good intentions, he will end up accidentally infecting people with the blight while acting as a GoodSamaritan.]]
