* ''Animation/PleasantGoatFunClass'': Subverted. While his kid self is usually sensible for someone who is otherwise rude, Wolffy has no qualms in bringing out a gun to potentially shoot an elephant in the first episode of the first season, ''Animals & Plants'', after Weslie discusses how hunters hurt elephants for their tusks. Thankfully, the gun shoots out a toothbrush that Wolffy uses to brush the elephants' tusks instead of actually hurting them.

* From Wiki/{{Killerbunnies}}, we have Malou, Visceraline, Snow, Atlasnaya, and Creamline and they seem to have a fairly messed up view of the world and enjoy doing fairly harmful things. Although, in Snow and Atlasnaya's case, this is fairly justified, seeing that they've only known violence and thus act they see fit, although the same cannot really be said for Malou, Visceraline, and Creamline.

Who needs those freaks when you've got a son?\\
I'm gonna be the new Monster M.D.\\
Cuz the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!\\
I'm gonna run the family biz for sure!\\
You're the sickness, I'm the cure.\\
I'm a bouncy, blue-eye bundle of joy, with just one mission: DESTROY!\\
I'm the Sinfant! A Diabolical delinquent!\\
I might look sweet but don't be fooled\\
All shall suffer under my rule!\\
Cuz I'm the Sinfant! I snatch your soul in a instant!\\
You cannot hide or run away!\\
Defeating you is child's play!''

* ''Radio/OldHarrysGame:'' Thomas Crimp, when he was a child. Even by the age of five, other children hated him because he scared them, when he wasn't just stealing from their parents. Thomas responded by killing them. And his parents, when they wouldn't buy him an expensive toy. And possibly one of his siblings. As an adult, Thomas is in many ways still that little child. He just got a lot better at getting what he wanted... until he winds up in Hell.

* ''TabletopGame/BlackbirdsRPG'': Caoimhe-Ailis was the only daughter of a brutal warlord named Caoimhe-Ondrej, and had the charming habit of torturing small animals and parts of their corpses as decoration. When Ondrej joined the [[GodhoodSeeker Oligarchs]] in their quest to usurp the gods, Ailis murdered him and stole his divinity by tearing his throat out ''with her teeth'' at the age of ''10''. She is now the Child of Longing, a [[MothMenace mothlike]] EldritchAbomination who has corrupted the ancestral Caoimhe clanlans, and often afflicts innocent travelers with nightmarish fates worse than death for her own amusement.

* ''Literature/FightingFantasy'' have a few:
** ''Literature/BeneathNightmareCastle'': While strolling through the crime-infested streets of Neuberg, you might be pickpocketed by a child thief, a little girl around 9 years of age who took advantage of your surprise to slash at you with a knife. She runs off after a single round of combat, and if you chase after her, she'll lure you into a back alley where three boys her age armed with weapons will ambush you.
** ''Literature/AppointmentWithFear'': An installment set in the modern day, at one point you come across a child trying to shoplift a chocolate bar. If you decide to talk to the child, the kid will guiltily stick his hand into his pockets, as if to take out the chocolate bar he had stolen... only to pull a gun on you instead. Cue a BoomHeadshot
** ''Literature/LegendOfZagor'': One of the rooms in Castle Argent contains a trio of thieves, all of them younger than you, the youngest at around 8 years old... and they'll try slashing at you with knives. Although you're given an option to talk to them instead, where it turns out they ''can'' be reasoned with, and the youngest thief can be hired as an AssistCharacter during fights, helping you by stabbing at orcs and zombies.
