* Fanfic/ALoudAmongDemons has this with Lincoln. As the story goes on, he starts to develop insticts that cause him to think and act more like a demon. [[spoiler:And in the "Truth Seekers" chapter, his shadow takes on the form of a demonic jackolope when said insticts fully take over]]

** Pre-evolution acts as this to most anybody who undergoes it. Temporary access to the power of one's evolved trait without the training required (or being [[TheAce Sora]] ''sounds'' cool on paper, but the subject's mind and body are usually not built to handle the Diva-class power-up it gives them just yet. The result is an extremely powerful [[TheBerserker berserk]] talent that is gradually hurting themselves with their own strength.

** Yoruno Sora is the epitome of BewareTheNiceOnes - what happens when Tokino Sora becomes consumed by such intense negative emotions that they manage to overpower the Purity Trait's passive cancellation of such feelings. The one time she had manifested, several people ''died'' and more were severely injured, and even Kizuna Ai (the one mortal person suggested to be ''stronger'' than normal Sora. and substantially so) was only able to survive the CurbStompBattle Yoruno put her through because she was on a time limit.

** ''Series/KamenRiderZeroOne'': Thanks to Gai Amatsu forcing a special Progrise Key into the Zero-One Driver, we get Metal Cluster Hopper. It is a ''hilariously'' overpowered form, the suit itself being made of a swarm of metallic locusts that form constructs and even simply swarm and shred the user's enemies while they simply ''stand there''. One problem though: similarly to Shining Assault Hopper, Metal Cluster Hopper establishes a connection between Zero-One and the Ark. ''Unlike'' Shining Assault Hopper, Metal Cluster Hopper's ''only'' connection is to the Ark, meaning that [[AIIsACrapshoot the malice-filled super-AI]] gets free reign of all the suit's functions while Aruto is trapped within the satellite's systems. And the worst part is, the Metal Cluster Hopper Progrise Key was designed to jailbreak the Zero-One Driver, making this form ''the only one that can be used''. So either [[TheHero Aruto]] quits being Zero-One (something he'd never do), or goes on a rampage every single time he tries to help. '''''[[SarcasmMode Fun.]]''''' Thankfully, the Progrise Hopper Blade fixed every single one of these issues (tying the Driver back to Zea and eventually letting it get un-jailbroken), though it also appears to have somewhat nerfed the form.

SubTrope of EnemyWithin and SuperPoweredAlterEgo. If the Super-Powered Evil Side is triggered by the character's anger or rage, then it is a type of HulkingOut.

HulkingOut. SplitMindSplitPowers rarely overlaps with this trope, as the evil side usually has their own powers on top of the ones the good personality has.

Amanda Waller attempts to make The Enchantress a member of the Suicide Squad, however The Enchantress gets permanent control of June Moone early on and becomes the main villain instead.

* In ''Fanfic/TheBridge'', Monster X's Kaizer Ghidorah transformation serves as this. Monster X is a NobleDemon, while Kaizer Ghidorah is a bundle of hatred and rage. Monster X is roughly equal in strength to other kaiju like Godzilla and Gigan, while Kaizer Ghidorah can curb-stomp them.
* In ''Fanfic/ChildOfTheStorm'', Harry has a dark side that starts appearing after Chapter 50. While not strictly another personality, it's certainly another side of him. According to Carol (who's had a look inside his mind), like all the experiences that should have screwed him up have been locked away in a box in his mind, constituting his dark side. It's [[TranquilFury frighteningly cold]], ruthlessly calculating, and while not explicitly more powerful, Carol describes it as TheUnfettered, while others describe it as being frighteningly reminiscent of a young Magneto. In one early appearance, it resulted in Harry putting an entire HYDRA assault team at his mercy and nearly forcing a PsychicAssistedSuicide after their leader took a child hostage, only being talked down by Jane. Then, a chapter later, it led to him telekinetically ripping Gravemoss' ribcage open and tearing his heart out (not that it had [[HealingFactor any long-term effect]]). Unsurprisingly, [[BestFriend Carol]] [[MoralityChain keeps a close watch on him]], as Harry does on himself, being invariably horrified by what he's done when it sinks in.

Added example from Lone

Added DiffLines:

* ''Webcomic/Lone'': All witches have this. It's called an effigy, and it's a part of their soul presumably corrupted by the demonic essence that gives them their magic. Lone's is particularly, and it's constant attempts to take over her body are actually the cause for her seemingly weak magic. [[spoiler: It finally succeeds at the end of Season 1, and not only paralyzes the Demon Twins but rips Red Lone's soul out of the afterlife to act as its puppet.]] Although we haven't seen any others, Lone's effigy seems to be the manifestation of all the trust issues she doesn't have but logically should; it thinks that everyone, from her friends to her family to her master, will end up hurting her (which is kind of a fair assumption in some cases), and the only people it seems to care about are [[spoiler: Lones]]. It also resents Lone, due to the fact that [[spoiler: the first time it took over, Lone actually let it due to rage over a bully killing her cat, but not wanting to take responsibility for the ensuing chaos]]. It also talks using we/us pronouns, and uses the same pronouns to refer to Lone, which can get confusing.
