Go To

1* ''Any'' of the fight scenes would count. The author takes a long time to vividly describe the injuries inflicted on both sides, with even minor scrapes being disturbingly detailed. A few notable examples definitely stand out though.
2** Marie Winter vs Krieg. The first one shows how Krieg hasn't changed at all during the 5 year absence, slaughtering a squadron of Bellum troops before taking her on. The second one has Marie Winter going StalkerWithACrush on Krieg, showing a disturbing obsession towards him that sounds suspiciously {{Yandere}} in style.
3** Major General Sine. [[EyeScream He has eyes in the palms of his hands]] and using his two main eyes caused them to bleed. When he fought Maya [[spoiler:one of his eyes is yanked out before being disintegrated into dust]].
4** The Vault Hunters vs Doctor Suture. His BloodyMurder powers are played for their entire {{Squick}} value, along with Dion's plasma abilities.
5** The Vault Hunters vs Famile. [[GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere There is no explanation to what exactly he is]], and his dialogue is creepily ominous. Ironically, [[spoiler:he actually gets a happy ending, having seperated his family from his assimilated body and being happily together]].
6** [[spoiler:Aurai]] vs Masher, or more specifically, what happens to him from [[spoiler:her]]. [[AnArmAndALeg Two arms ripped off]], [[EyeScream an eye gouged out]], a roof collapsed onto his body, and being set on fire was what it took to be put down. It's still NightmareFuel just because of the vivid detail that is put into it.
7** The Vault Hunters and Lupus Cithara vs Elena Tear. Her original impression is TheStoic DarkActionGirl, but she turns out that she's a [[spoiler:repressed BloodKnight who battles with a SlasherSmile and a transformation sequence eerily similar to [[{{Manga/Naruto}} Gaara's Shukaku transformation]]. When she fights, she either shreds people apart with her sword or drowns them in her water powers, showing no remorse for either of these actions. Even the narrators are scared of her, and with good reason]].
8** The Vault Hunters vs Jackal Cash. He's TheDeterminator mixed with CombatPragmatist, with his [[spoiler:second fight being the prime example of this. He takes out Dion first, as he was the biggest pain in the ass for him, and then targets Saprus to be rid of his disease. The occult ritual that makes him immortal is just creepy icing on the cake]].
9** Wolfenstein vs Mortem. [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything The rape imagery is incredibly strong]], and some people think Mortem appears to enjoy it through the entire thing. It's downright disturbing, with the particular emphasis on the huge quantities of shed blood being extreme even by {{Gorn}} standards.
10** Teresa Pangolin vs Gueule. Seeing the normally quiet, sweet old lady blow off the Grave Servant's legs and make him bleed to death is disturbing as hell, especially given how easily she did it. Even creepier: she acted completely calm and professional during it, [[FridgeHorror like she had done this before]].
11* Saprus, despite his {{Bishonen}} CoolOldGuy traits, is still this trope. He has to wear a biohazard suit just to prevent himself from [[WalkingWasteland killing everything around him accidentally]]. When he does take off his helmet, he has areas of ''rotting around his eyes and temples, as well as several places on his chest and stomach from his disease''.
12* Wolfenstein, especially when he fights or transforms. Unlike most [[OurWerebeastsAreDifferent werebeasts]], he transforms into a liquid-like state made of blood, fur, teeth and eyes. When he does fight, he turns out to be a [[spoiler:BloodKnight with an immense SlasherSmile and ImAHumanitarian traits up to eleven. It's fairly shocking, especially the first time it's shown against Nitro and even more so against Mortem]].
13* In the first DLC, the Carnival of Carnage is this when you think about it. Mr. Vangorium goes to a planet, and '''''kills everyone on the planet''''', sparing absolutely no one, ''then'' sets up shop. [[FromBadToWorse Then it gets scary]]. He completely supports Masher's psychotic and SerialRapist tendencies, and [[spoiler:Suture's experiments on Aurai, along with using Aurai as a human charger for the Vault Keys he uses on each planet]].
14* While Sirens in the original name have fairly conventional powers, Titans all have a DangerousForbiddenTechnique as their primary abilities. Dion has plasma (meaning his skin and body melt), and Suture has [[BloodyMurder blood]] (meaning he shoots it form his veins, makes blades, detonates his entire body or forms armor out of it). [[AnIcePerson Rocko]] seems to avoid this, though that's likely due to lack of screen time.
15* Grave Lord Arlon's real power, To Name. Basically, this means he can change the name of any object he chooses, altering its function and composition. Doesn't sound so bad right? Well that includes people too. The first two people he used it on were turned into Fire and Hunger respectively, which made them burn down to ashes and crumble into dust respectively. ''And there's nothing you can do about it to fight it''. [[spoiler: Unless you're Mockingbird]].
16* Davis Dalmer from the Eddy Tsar's Five Weeks of Hell is rapidly growing to become one. He's a violent sadomasochist with clear sociopathic tendencies. Let's list his actions in order:
17** Creates human pincushions using massive blades, mostly out of defenseless women.
18** When Zodd ripped out his piercings in a bar, he proceeded to give him a GlasgowGrin just like him using only his fingertips.
19** Captures and gives hundreds of piercings to [[spoiler:Mary Jane]] after her fight with Dr. Ivanlove.
20** Cuts off [[spoiler:his own tongue]] when he was asked for recompensense. He even enjoyed it.
