* ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemJugdral Fire Emblem Seisen No Keifu]]'' sees [[BigBad Manfloy]] hunt down the descendants of Lopto in order to breed them together, thereby providing a host for the evil god. [[spoiler:He succeeds.]] This incestuous evil plan works because genetics ''[[AWizardDidIt do]]'' [[AWizardDidIt work that way in the game]]. The whole thing is played very much for the {{Squick}}, and to show just how much of an irredeemable bastard Manfloy is because a) one of the required children is [[spoiler:''[[IHaveYourWife the main character's wife]]'' (Sigurd's spouse and one of the local {{White Mage}}s, Deirdre))]], b) the other child is [[spoiler: a former WellIntentionedExtremist [[JerkAssWoobie whose life sucked ever since he was a little boy]], Duke Alvis]] and c) the future host aka their kid, [[spoiler: Prince Julius]], [[UsedToBeASweetKid Used To Be A Sweet]] IllBoy. [[spoiler: Said plan is also Manfroy's perdition... Alvis and Deirdre ''happened'' to have '''twin''' kids, with the non-Lopto child being [[SpannerInTheWorks Princess Julia]], the person able to wield Narga... the magic that works directly as ''the opposite to Lopto's powers''. And not only that, but she managed to join LaResistance - led by her ''other'' brother aka Deirdre's son with Sigurd, Seliph, an excellent warrior who inherited Sigurd's [[HeroicLineage own Holy Blood]]...]]
* Another in the same series, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses'' has a similar theme with Crests, which are inherited and grant special abilities and the abilityt to wield powerful Relics as weapons. It turns out that Sylvan is afraid of being used this way by the women he dates and secretly holds them in contempt for desiring him only for his Crest.

(Their son got hit by the TimeyWimeyBall and ended up as Time Traveling badass Cable.)

* In ''{{Literature/Tasakeru}}'', there's a rather literal usage of this in Book III, in which a wolf who named himself Stalker creates a hybrid of all eight sentient species by stealing blood from each of them...
* ''WebOriginal/TheColmatonUniverse'' has two generations of the rare female version. A GovernmentConspiracy extracted Bobbi's (aka Medic Mouse) eggs while she was recovering from the atomic blast that triggered her powers. Said group then found a couple undergoing IVF and switched the birth mother's eggs with one of Bobbi's, producing Kuwanna (Ranger). Kuwanna's ex-boyfriend was in on the conspiracy and they conceived a daughter, Nandi, who was removed as an embryo during an appendectomy before Kuwanna knew she was pregnant and gestated in a UterineReplicator. Both Bobbi and Kuwanna were horrified and furious when they learned about all this, but after rescuing Nandi from her father they started living as a (rather unusual) family.
* ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'': Envy's mother, a notorious {{Supervillain}}ess called The Black Strega, was born into an AncientConspiracy BreedingCult of mutants called The Bloodline. After Fino's [[GenderBender transformation into Fina]], a rogue Bloodline member calling himself 'Literature/RoburTheConqueror' (a [[MadScientist Devisor]] who is looking to up his prestige in the group by improving his 'contribution' to their SuperBreedingProgram) kidnaps Fina so he could extract her eggs, which he intends to combine with his own sperm for the PeopleFarm aboard his airship. He also tries to [[AndNowYouMustMarryMe force her to marry him and have children with him directly]], to bump his status even further. This [[DisproportionateRetribution doesn't]] [[GenderBender end]] [[GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul well]] for Robur once [[MamaBear Strega]] finds out where he's taken her.

* ''Fanfic/ChildOfTheStorm'' has Sinister up to his usual shenanigans, genetics wise, though in a slightly different fashion:
** He telepathically manipulates Mrs Figg and Dumbledore's other observers to hide how Harry's being treated by the Dursleys so he can have free-rein to study him (being intrigued by the potential impact of magical genes mixing with the psychic potential of the Grey family, to whom Lily was related - he was very surprised when he found out that thanks to James having been an amnesiac incarnate Thor, there was a good deal more to Harry than met the eye).
** He kidnapped [[spoiler: Rachel Grey, Jean's twin sister, as a newborn and faked her death by replacing her with a dead baby girl, raising her to become his [[LivingWeapon Hound]] and 'case study' - and only the intervention of Doctor Strange prevented him from grabbing Jean as well for a similar fate]].
** He also stole Scott Summers' DNA, looking to find out why Scott's father, the son of a powerful mutant - Colonel Alex Summers a.k.a. Havok - didn't have powers, and was surprised to find out the potential power of the Summers' genome. [[spoiler: He used it to create Remy LeBeau a.k.a. Gambit]].
** He's also mentioned as having been a lurking presence in Nazi death-camps, known as 'Nosferatu', who creeped out even the Nazis, and who sticks firmly in Magneto's memory.

A queen mating with a male from her same species results in queen daughters, which are obviously useless for her colony's needs; however, a queen mating with a male from the ''other'' species results in sterile hybrids that serve as cheap workers. Thus, every mating season the queen of every species will seek to mate with male from the other, resorting to deception and even outright rape if they need it.
