* In chapter 32 of ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10752206/32/Beyond-the-Outer-Gates-Lies-A-high-school-library Beyond the Outer Gates Lies… A high school library?]]'' [[Literature/TheDresdenFiles Harry Dresden]] deals one of these to the BigBad of this arc after [[FightingAShadow defeating his strongest avatar]]:
--> '''Harry Dresden:''' You might not have heard what I told BB. But your [[TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons Beholders]] are already done. I have the spells to track them, to block them, and to kill them. I am going to make those spells available to every magician, Devil, Fallen, Angel, Valkyrie, and any other supernatural being that wants them. Their days of being a near mythical phantom, untraceable and untouchable, are over. With any luck, in a year you won't dare send a Beholder anywhere that there might be any kind of magic user.
--> And as for you. Maybe I can't kill you on my own. But I'm on good terms with the leaders of the [[LightNovel/HighSchoolDXD Three Factions]]. Most of them owe me some favors, and I'm friends with the two you seem to fear the most. And I know five [[SwordOfDamocles Longinus]] users. Two of them would help me if I asked… and the other three I might not be on good terms with, but I can easily push their buttons to get them to do what I want. And that's just the simple connections
--> Give me a reason, [[spoiler: Argus]]. And I will gather up every god, demi-god, and god-killer I can, and [[Main/KilltheGod I will sic them on you]]. We will find whatever hole you are hiding in. And then you won't have to worry about Hera's curse anymore.
--> Comprende?
* The ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{WITCH}}'' crossover ''Fanfic/{{Kage}}'' has this one from Jade, as she accepts the [[ForcedIntoEvil circumstances]] she's currently in:
-->"I am Jade Chan, the girl that defies all odds, either on Earth or Meridian. Look out Meridian, for Jade Chan is here."

* [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Rip Van Winkle]] modifies her original boast in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9547582/5/Zero-s-Bullet Zero's Bullet]]'' after becoming [[LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero Louise's]] familiar.
-->"I am ze Huntress, Rip Van Winkle. Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor, vizard or vastrel. My bullet punishes all vithout distinction!"
* When the BigBad of ''Fanfic/OldWest'' is introduced and he's about to leave after unsuccessfully bribing and threatening the good guys, [[WesternAnimation/{{Rango}} Rattlesnake Jake]] grabs him and gives his own threat before letting him go.
--> "Yer damned lucky the Sheriff's so soft. What's the matter, boy? Yer shakin' a little. How's it feel to be so helpless? In the face of death, it don't matter whether yer rich or poor, we all die in the end. Don't you ever forget that, 'cause one day I'm gonna be the one who comes callin' to claim yer soul. Now look into my eyes... I want you to remember them for the rest of yer life. 'Cause next time you see them ''this'' close, it'll be {{the last thing you ever see}}."
* In the ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' alternate universe story ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7305950/1/The-Empty-Cage The Empty Cage]]'' the true name of each Bijuu functions as both a way to identify them and a BadassBoast. Kyuubi is named Kuushou (the Burning Sky) as he is fully capable of setting the heavens aflame.
* In ''Fanfic/TheWitchOfTheEverfree'', when Sunset first enters the Everfree and gets into a fight with a manticore:
-->'''Sunset:''' You’re not going to take me down that easily. Do you know who I am? I’m Sunset Shimmer! I burned down half of a ''stone castle''! I threw myself out of a train because I don’t let ponies tell '''me''' what to do! [[ComicBook/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicIDW I blew up my professors]] '''[[ComicBook/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicIDW on purpose]]''' [[ComicBook/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicIDW as part of my mid-term!]] You’re just a stupid monster and you don’t have a snowball’s chance in Tartarus against me!
** Later on, after she's lost most of her excess {{Pride}}, she gives a much more understated—but, if anything, even more effective—one to [[spoiler:Nightmare Moon]]:
-->'''Sunset:''' In case you hadn't heard, I'm the strongest unicorn in Equestria, and I'm villain enough for this town. I'm going to send you back to [[spoiler:the moon]] in pieces.
* ''Fanfic/{{Infinity}}'' has several:
** Amaterasu to [[spoiler: Yggdrasil]]:
-->'''Amaterasu:''' [[spoiler:"You ask me to do my ''worst''? You delusional pocket calculator, '''''you have never seen my worst'''''."]]
** Susanoo to Signum:
-->'''Susanoo:''' You talk about the Mistress of the Night Sky like such a thing could exist. Pay ''attention'', you little speck. I am the god of thunder, Susanoo the Storm Emperor. Day or night, the lord of the sky is ''always'' me.
** Fate combines this with CallingYourAttack during her final battle against Susanoo:
-->'''Bardiche:''' Photon Lancer: [[spoiler: Deicide Shift]]
* In ''Fanfic/ABoyAGirlAndADogTheLeithianScript'', when badass elven king Fingolfin recounts his challenge GodOfEvil Morgoth, he yells:
-->''Fingolfin:'' "Come forth, you cowardly wretch and fight me if you dare, you king of slaves and shadows"
In the same work according to Luthien, Carcharoth, mightiest wolf ever to walk the world of Arda had one of these as his name. ''Carcharoth,'' or Red maw? red Maw was only the abridged version of his name. The whole of it went:
-->I Of The Blood-Stained Jaws, Whose Teeth Are As Knives, Eater of Elves And Men, Terror Of Orcs, Biter Of Balrogs, Who Fears Not The Sun, Who Guards The Great King's Gate By Day And By Night.
--> Finrod: Humble fellow, isn't he?
* ''Fanfic/WonderfulMazinja'': Even though [[Literature/{{Worm}} Kaiser]] is a Nazi super-villain gang boss, his rallying speech is admittedly awesome:
-->'''Kaiser:''' The vermin have overstepped their bounds! They believe that their pet Tinker’s toys are enough to spread their filth in our city! They are wrong! We are the bastion that keeps their kind in their place! We will not be intimidated! We are the EMPIRE! Today, the sub-humans of the Merchants will PERISH!

* The basic plot of ''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/3610755/chapters/8249413 To Be A King]]'' is that Series/{{Merlin|2008}} has been crowned king of the country Carthis. Since he's a bastard son and was a peasant for most of his life, a good BadassBoast is sometimes necessary to let everyone know exactly what they're dealing with.
-->'''Merlin:''' I have survived more battles in the last eleven years than this entire kingdom has seen in over a century. I have fought trolls and griffins and questing beasts and sidhe. I have destroyed two immortal armies singlehandedly. I killed the High Priestess Nimueh with a single blow. I defeated the immortal spirit of Cornelius Sigan and held audience with the Fischer King himself. I alone among mortal men have survived the touch of the Dorocha. I have wielded the Cup of Life and held the power of Life and Death in my hands. I have seen the land of Avalon and glimpsed the future in the Crystal Cave. I have faced Morgana in battle and walked away the victor. Tell me, Lord Tennison, do you still think me ''untried''?
* The epic ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'' fic ''Fanfic/DownToAgincourt'' has Castiel mentioning that he's accurate with ranged weapons at a distance of up to a mile. Bewildered, Dean mentions the curvature of the Earth as a limiting factor.
-->'''Castiel''': I can calculate that in the time it takes to pull the trigger.

-->'''Loki:''' Brilliant as their limited mortal minds are, I am Loki. And I am Xander Harris. There is no power in this or any other dimension that could prevent me from helping out my girls when they need me most. And right now they need me more than ever. Show me who has invoked my ire so that I might kill them.

* ''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/522880/chapters/1083632 The Kings In The Mountains]]'' has [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Gilg]][[TheFightingNarcissist amesh]] deliver one to the [[Franchise/MassEffect Rea]][[EldritchAbomination pers]] as they invade.

-->“You! ''You'' yourselves are the ones who come to conquer my kingdom? It has shattered, and my people have fallen and they have forgotten those golden times, but all this world is mine! And you think you will take it? Machines, tools? You think you can destroy even the pathetic fragments which are left of my realm?”

-->“Let me show you what tools ''I'' have. Let me show you what submits to me!”

-->“You come for my kingdom's destruction? Then learn of ''creation''! Learn of how Heaven and Earth were divided and Hell was sealed below! Learn it from the tool of the gods which was Creation itself! Learn this and die!”

* In ''FanFic/FieldOfInnocence'', [[WarriorPrince Lu Ten]] finds out that Ozai has been using training sessions as an excuse to physically abuse his children, and gives him a threat made of pure, undiluted BigBrotherInstinct.
--> '''Lu Ten''': Now you listen to me, Uncle, and listen good. If you hurt either one of those kids again, if you say anything to make them feel bad, if you so much as look at them wrong, I will face you in an Agni Kai and ''I will break and humiliate you in front of the whole court.'' I don't care who you are. I don't care if our family is watching. I'll hold nothing back, I will destroy you!
* The ''FanFic/GoldenAge'' series has one courtesy of Commander Keelus, as he prepares to take on the Alternian Empire's attack.

* In ''FanFic/KitsuneNoKenFistOfTheFox'', Sai gives seven simple words in response to Aoi, to whom he's about to give a nasty NoHoldsBarredBeatdown as revenge for force-feeding him an overdose of drug-pills that put Sai into a coma and almost on the brink of death [[spoiler:and for, just at that moment, attempting to rape Ino, Sai's love interest]].
--> '''Sai:''' Death knows better than to touch me.
* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11217239/1/Spark-of-Creation Spark of Creation]]'', Obito tries to prevent Naruto from destroying Pain's rinnegan by warping to their location with kamui, only for it to fail instantly and Naruto to warn him telepathically.
-->'''Naruto:''' If I had wanted you to move, I'd have told you where you were going.

* The Bleach fic ''Hell Butterfly'' has Yamamoto and Barragan face off, and they battle in {{Badass Boast}}s more than in actual combat.

--> Or would rather take this oppurtunity to resign?

* ''ComicBook/TheMightyThor'' fanfic [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10294941/29/Ordinary-Love Ordinary Love]] is an AU in which Odin banishes both Thor and Loki to Midgard, and chapter 29 has this from Frigga:
--> '''Frigga:''' ''(upon being told that Thor and Loki are in danger)'' Tell [Sif] my sons — ''both'' of my sons — are to be retrieved. At any cost. If not, Midgard shall learn the wrath of the All-Father can pale in comparison to my own.

--> '''Tiida''': "That only gives her an excuse. You know I have to try and stop you then, and that means letting her do what she does best. Belkan Knights don't think in terms of minimum acceptable force. She's a Wolkenritter. The only thing she cares about is the quickest and most efficient way to render you inert. She doesn't care if you survive it. You can kill the hostages, you can even take a shot at killing me. But it won't solve your problems and you won't be walking out of here that way."
* ''Fanfic/TheEquestrianWindMage'': As they're trying to escape King Sombra, Shining Armor asks Maulgrim if he can run in all that armor. His response?
-->'''Maulgrim''': Little shrimp, I can run with a mountain on my back.
* In ''FanFic/OriginStory'', Alex Harris has a little "discussion" with Tony Stark on the SHIELD Helicarrier about her problems with how he's enforcing the Metahuman Registration Act:
-->'''Alex Harris:''' “I am unilaterally declaring Florida a free state. I am defending the Constitution, something you swore an oath to do when you took government office, I might point out.”
-->'''Tony Stark:''' “But you can't...”
-->'''Harris:''' “Oh can't I? What are you going to do, send in the army to catch one person?” (grabs Stark by the lapels and lifts him into the air) "Here's what's about to happen. I'm going to leave. When I've left, you're going to turn this crate around, or so help me God, I will knock it out of the sky and into space. If I need your help, I'll ask for it. Until then, stay in New York!”
* In a ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann''-inspired ''VideoGame/ChronoCross'' fanfic [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11085119/1/Heaven-Smiting-Masked-Magician Heaven-Smiting Masked Magician]], Guile frequently gives out this.
** For starters: "Are you aware of who I am?"[[note]]The author states that he uses Nia's speech instead of Kamina's and the others' "Who the hell do you think I am?" due to Guile's polite speech in the canon.[[/note]]
** Then there's one with a pose which is modified from Kamina's 'pierce the heavens'.
*** "Let me tell you something important now. I am Guile the Masked Magician. I am a man of indomitable spirit and masculinity. I do the impossible, break the unbreakable, and beat the unbeatable." He paused. "With my magic," Guile clenched his right fist and raised it to the point his knuckles were facing the sky, before shouting, "I shall smite the heavens!"
** "I am Guile the Masked Magician. I am a man of indomitable spirit and masculinity. I do the impossible, break the unbreakable, and beat the unbeatable. My magic...is the magic that smites the heavens!"

* In ''Fanfic/AuroraPonyholicsAnonymous'', Luna gives a serious one to [[spoiler: [[BigBad Dawnbringer]]]] right before the FinalBattle:

For if you had not committed great sins I would not exist. My Air Legions shall darken the Skies. My Dog Hordes will sunder the earth. With my lance I will gut all I survey. I Am Talonhoof. I Am Coming.''

[[AC:''WesternAnimation/YougJustice2010'']]

* ''Fanfic/RWBYReckoning'' has Sky Lark threatening [[AuthorAvatar Darrel]] with [[TheBully Cardin's]] supposed power. Darrel isn't intimidated.
-->'''Darrel:''' Lark, [[DragonRider I rode and controlled a Nevermore]] during initiation. I sent a [[FullBoarAction Boarbatusk]] crashing through five walls with [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom one single punch.]] [[EatMe I let myself get swallowed by a Wahtani with a time bomb strapped to my back,]] [[FeedItABomb so I could detonate it in its stomach.]] You think Cardin could beat me? I'd like to [[PunctuatedForEmphasis see.]] '''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Him.]]''' '''''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Try.]]'''''
* The Bleach fic ''Hell Butterfly'' has Yamamoto and Barragan face off, and they battle in {{Badass Boast}}s more than in actual combat.
* In ''Fanfic/AProtectorsPride'' [[TechnicalPacifist Orihime]] gets an awesome one.
-->'''Orihime''': "This is my power. You may be able to [[spoiler:rot away flesh, bone and sinew. You may be able to decompose earth and metal and even dissipate reiatsu.]] But my technique is based on none of those, nothing but the eternal force of my will to protect! This is my power, [[spoiler:Baraggan, Lord of Hueco Mundo!]] This power that intrudes on Kami's territory! The power to reject and reshape reality! And I reject you and your power! Tsubaki! Koten Zanshun! I reject!"
** Yamamoto gives a brilliant one to [[spoiler:Hell]].
--->'''Yamamoto''': "Allow me to tell you exactly whom you are dealing with. My name is Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni. I have lived for millennia, in times of war and in times of peace. I have made damning mistakes. I have won impossible victories. I have committed terrible atrocities, ordered and led utter genocide, not once, not twice, but thrice in the name of world balance, in the name of sanity, in the name of the human soul. I am he who conquered Soul Society and united the strongest under my rule! I am he who fought and survived the First Quincy, Yhwach, one thousand years ago, destroying his powers! I have had one thousand years since then to increase my powers, [[spoiler:Hell]]! Now taste the ever-burning flame of my soul! Bankai! Zanka no Tachi. Now... can the fires of Hell compare to me?"

* Shirou Emiya drops a pretty epic on in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10710606/18/A-Demon-Lord-s-Hero A Demon Lord's Hero]]''.
--> '''Shirou:''' Immortal? You think you're an immortal?
--> Answer me this my [[Main/HealingFactor Lord Phenex]]. Can an immortal bleed?
--> Once, Immortals were real. They roamed this earth as real as you and me, and could be found in every land. Gods who existed since the dawn of time and would be here at it's end. [[Main/CompleteImmortality Supreme beings that would never die, Primordial entities who knew neither pain nor suffering, omnipotent demons who could not bleed, They were plentiful, those immortals, who never needed to fear the touch of death or comprehend the meaning of an end]].
--> Then one day, they simply stopped existing.
--> Nineteen years ago, every immortal, every undying being lost their immortality. Those gods of old could no longer escape death's embrace, and have learned the meaning of an end.
--> Something happened, an event occurred which made the immortals no longer untouchable, stripping them of their invulnerability, making it a lie.
--> And that event nineteen years ago was a birth.
--> My birth.
--> I was born, and on that day immortality became no more.
--> Immortality became but a myth, nothing but a fairytale. And so long I live and breathe it will continue to be so.
--> Because in this world, there is nothing,
--> Nothing
--> That I cannot kill.
--> Would you like to see how an immortal dies Lord Phenex?
--> Or would rather take this oppurtunity to resign?

* In ''Fanfic/SystemRestore'', Togami, [[ForWantOfANail having survived the first murder in this fic]], gives one to the rest of the students when they're assembled after the second murder, inviting the murderer to confess.
-->'''Togami''': Yes, you heard me. I know you're listening. We've solved a murder before, and we'll do it again. You know what this entails, and you can save us all a lot of trouble by confessing now. Go on.
* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9855028/2/The-Warlord-Era-Internal-Perspectives The Warlord Era: Internal Perspectives]] by Blex Luthor finishes gang leader Sai Mock's monologue with:
-->'''Sai Mock''': Let 'em come. I've stood against hurricanes. Against gangsters. Against lawmen. Against armies. The Pig Pen couldn't kill me. The Liquid Swordsman couldn't kill me. The Yasuki still can't kill me. These silk shirts won't either. I went into the Tong Wars as a boy and came out as a king. I am exactly who I say I am. My branches reach far and my roots run deep. I'm ready. Let 'em come.
* Another MLP example: ''Fanfic/TheTwilightChild'':
** When the main character's been on the receiving end of a FreakyFridayFlip from Trixie for humiliating her. After talking Trixie out of running, she decides to point out one last thing, as a warning.
--->'''Midday:''' You're a firecracker, Trixie. Me? I am ''the sun''.
** As Princess Luna and the Changeling Queen are fighting, and the Changeling Queen is beating Luna, she asks what she's got.
-->'''Queen Chrysalis:''' You haven't stopped me, and you haven't slowed me down. You're the weaker of the two sisters and we both know it, so the fact that I beat your sister so easily doesn't say much for your chances. So why oh why are you smiling?
-->'''Princess Luna:''' Well, you do have your army, and all that stolen love you're being fuelled by, which I presume requires access to Shining Armor to maintain, and you are, without a doubt, a difficult opponent. Most of the foes I've fought were brainless brutes, or the occasional animated corpse, but there's something I have that you don't. (''glances up at the sky'')
-->'''Queen Chrysalis:''' Really? What's that? Suicidal overconfidence? I'm stronger, faster, more powerful than you "princess", so why are you smiling?
-->'''Princess Luna:''' (''grins'') Because, ''I brought my dog''. (''Cue Changeling Queen being TrampledUnderfoot by Cerberus.'')

* Ichigo gives one regarding [[NormalFishInATinyPond Tatsuki]] in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3860355/1/After-The-Fairy-Tale-Ends After The Fairy Tale Ends]]''.
-->'''Ichigo''': "Come back when you've got a captain's haori. Matter of fact, come back when you've got a captain's haori and two friends that also have captain's haoris. No, better make that ''three'' friends, because by the time you're at that level it will take at least ''four'' captains to hold me back."
* Shinji gives one to a [[EldritchAbomination Leviathan]] in the ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion/Franchise/MassEffect'' cross over ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8984362/25/Alpha-and-Omega Alpha and Omega]]''.
-->'''Leviathan''': "'''WHO ARE YOU TO STAND BEFORE US, TINY ONE?'''"
-->'''Shinji''': "I am Lilim, the last Angel. I am also Adam and Lilith, the first Angels. I represent the beginning and end of all things as well as everything that came between. Who are ''you''... to stand before me?"

* [[https://soundcloud.com/the-gypsy-caravan-1/answer-to-me-taiyangs-theme-1 The fan-made theme]]] for [[WebAnimation/{{RWBY}} Taiyang Xiao Long]], the father of both Ruby and Yang, is a BadassBoast in musical form. Specifically, old school rock style.
-->''[[PapaWolf "I am the father, now hear me roar\\
You've made a big mistake, I'm here to settle the score\\
I know your methods and I can see\\
you've taken liberties with all that is dear to me]]\\
[[GoodParents I kept my distance to give them space\\
but if you cross the line, I'll meet you face to face, yeah]]\\
I didn't come to negotiate\\
You've lit the powder keg, and I'm gonna detonate"''.

-->''"So heads up, give me your attention\\
I forgot to mention the pain in store\\
I'm gonna bring down thunder like you've never seen\\
Spare me the lectures, I ain't here for justice\\
I don't care what causes you're fighting for\\
This is a showdown -- I hope you came prepared to bleed\\
'cause tonight you're gonna [[TitleDrop answer to me]]"''

-->''"I've been in mourning for twelve long years\\
I'm here to break these chains, I've come to bury the fear\\
I've woken up from the fitful sleep\\
This is my cross to bear, I've got a charge to keep\\
I made a promise to raise them right\\
Guarded and kept them safe; I taught them how to fight\\
But if their shelter is blown away\\
I'll be the firewall, and there will be hell to pay"''

-->''"So come on, show me what you're made of\\
I am not afraid of this juggernaut\\
I'm packing vengeance, enough to bring you to your knees\\
Give me your best shot, I can take the damage\\
Don't care what advantage you think you've got\\
Pull out the big guns, tap into your armory\\
Put 'em up so you can answer to me"''

-->''"You can rest assured there's nothing I will not endure\\
if it will keep my children far away from pain\\
I have seen the cost of all the battles I have lost\\
and I am not about to let this end the same\\
This will be the measure of devotion to my treasures\\
They're the only future I have ever known\\
They are all I've got, so I will give it one more shot\\
'Cause all I really have to fear is that I might end up alone"''

-->''"I've got only one ambition\\
Lighting the ignition to burn you down\\
Start up the wreckage, turn it all into debris\\
This is the last stand, this is my conviction\\
I'll take this infliction and stand my ground\\
No more surrender, this will be my legacy\\
So get up; it's time to answer to me"''

* ''FanFic/WithThisRing'': "Power rings are awesome."
** Or, to elucidate on the above boast;
--->'''Orange Lantern:''' Do you see this ring? This is an example of the most powerful tool ever devised by a species that reached the limits of the technology curve, and then used their knowledge to build more curve for themselves. While I am in no sense an expert in it's application, I am more than up to the task, of taking down, three baseline Humans, armed with primitive weapons.
** It should be noted that, while the above boast is indeed badass, one of the baseline humans armed with primitive weapons does actually manage to take him down a peg.
** He later gets one on his behalf via Kon.
--->'''Kon:''' (said to the Justice League) Aren't you people supposed to be good at this!? If this had happened to any of us, Paul would already have ten plans by now! (Later, after Paul has [[spoiler: temporarily contained the Ophidian, and is thinking of ways to contain it indefinitely]]) ...See? Ten plans.
*** And an earlier if unconventional one from [[spoiler: Paulphidian]] to the aliens in the training scenario.
--->'''[[spoiler: Paulphidian]]:''' [[TranquilFury Your communications are still intact. I know you can understand me. And I want you to understand me when I tell you this. And I want you to relay it to every other unit your people have on Earth and Mars and anywhere else. Are you listening? Yes?

I could live with that. But what I can't live with is what you've done to the people. My friends. Because, you see [[LetsGetDangerous ahem,]] THESE PEOPLE ARE MINE! AND NO ONE TAKES WHAT IS MINE FROM ME! (Proceeds to curbstomp)
* ''Fanfic/PokemonResetBloodlines'' has a few pop up. The first notable one came from Charizard, temporarily stuck in his Charmander form again.
-->'''Charmander''': I am Charmander, you out of shape fish! I will not be defeated by you! I will defeat you! I will defeat your entire team myself! I will smite you all, and burn you all, and make you regret that you ever evolved! You will be nothing but a footnote as I retake the sky that is rightfully mine!
** Giovanni later gives one to Solidad during their rematch.
-->'''Giovanni, at the sight of Solidad's new Mega Slowbro''': This changes nothing.....I've fought such Pokemon before, I've defeated more impressive evolutions!"
** The future 20 Gyarados Bill gives one as he begins to turn from 'random nobody' to 'one of the most infamous criminals in history'
-->'''Bill''': I'm the Magikarp of the humans, destined to be mocked and laughed at until [[EurekaMoment I...]] [[AnalogyBackfire That's right, the so called useless Magikarp evolves into the mighty Gyarados]]! [[TheDreaded Gyarados, one of the most feared Pokemon in the world]]. [[PersonOfMassDestruction Gyarados, a Pokemon capable of ending entire civilizations in a single day throughout history]]. [[InspirationalInsult If I'm the Magikarp of the humans, then I can certainly become the Gyarados of the humans]]!"
* Lord Tydal of ''FanFic/TheGodSquad'' does not like it when you threaten his adopted daughters/baby sisters
--->'''Tydal:''' Let me ask you one question… the question you should have asked before you dared to come to my home: are the alicorns protected? You aren’t the first of your kind to try this. The Chancellor and the Princess have already marched here with their grand armies to take the little ones. They came as you did with threats and warnings. They threatened me as you did… they tried to kill me just as you did. And they doubted my power… just as you have done, you sad little horse. They have done all this already… so… what happened to them? ''(reveals he's beheaded the two armies and left their heads to be eaten by the fish)'' It seems you have forgotten who I am; allow me to introduce myself: I am Tydal. I am the king of the Mareatine. I am the lord of the capricorn race. I am the god of the sea and one of the eldest of the immortals. I call your creator Mother and hold council with those those power dwarfs all in your silly little Equestria. But more importantly… I am a father, a husband and a brother. Celestia and Luna are my sisters and under my protection. Three times Equestria has come to my door… the next time I see a flick of a pony’s tail my army will march upon your pathetic little country and I will raze it to the ground. Your stallions will be slaughtered, your mares used for our pleasure and your foals sold as slaves. I will burn your forests and salt the earth so nothing will grow again. I will burn the skies and cover the lands in darkness. I will personally come to your little Cloudsdale and I will rip it down from its high perch and crush it under my hooves. And only when this is all done will I finally come for you and your fellow rulers… and then your agony will begin. I will visit death upon you a thousand times and still not let my brother the Reaper claim your souls. That is only a taste of what I will do if you EVER THREATEN MY LITTLE SISTERS AGAIN! So… in a word Commander… '''run'''.

* For all that he tends to suffer from TheWorfEffect, Kakashi gives an awesome one to [[Franchise/TheSlenderManMythos the Slender Man]] in ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3665921/43/ Black Flames Dance in the Wind: Rise of Naruto]]''.
-->'''Kakashi''': "You're wasting your time. You couldn't break my father, and you will not break me. So go ahead, do what you want. Peek out from behind corners. Stand over me while I sleep. Follow me wherever I go. It makes no difference. At this point, there is nothing you can do to me, and nothing you can take from me. You did your worst, and I made you bleed on your own turf. So try me; we'll see how tough you are in MY world."
* In ''Fanfic/MagicalPonyLyricalTwilight'', a crossover between WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic and ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha'', when [[RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething Princess]] [[ThePowerOfTheSun Celestia]] needed to let the Belkan navy know why what it would be a very bad idea for them to target Equestria, this was what she had to say.
--> '''Princess Celestia:''' “Let me explain something to you, Wilhelm Albrecht the Second, Admiral of the Fourth Fleet, because it seems that you are woefully unaware of the forces with which you treat. I am Princess Celestia of Equestria. [[IHaveManyNames In the ancient tongue of the dragons, I am Vaal Kreinsejun and Vaal Unslaad Yol, the Sun-Queen and the Eternal Fire. To the zebra tribes I am mama wa majira ya joto, the mother of summer. To the griffon clans, I am the sun-tyrant and the witch-princess. And to your Sankt Kaiser, I was Kind der Sonne, Sun-Child.]] I am fire and heat and light. I bring dawn and dusk, and warmth and order follows in my wake. I am older and brighter than the very stars and I bow to nobody. You think your fleet invincible. You think yourself unbeatable. However, should your ships dare to enter my world’s borders, I will be more than happy to prove you wrong. Your machines will melt. Your fleet will be turned to glowing slag. Your soldiers will die burning and blind, and you yourself will be reduced to nothing more than ash. Because it does not matter how great your fleet is. It does not matter how many machines or men you have, nor how thick your armor or how powerful your magic. I will turn the full fury of the sun upon you without hesitation. [[PunctuatedForEmphasis You. Will. Burn.”]]

*** Diana's statement when facing down [[BigBad Ares]]' demonic army:
--->"Come, you spawns of hell! Come and face me, and I swear by Athena and the gods of Olympus that I shall send you back to the pit from whence you came!"
*** Ares himself gets a villainous one during the climatic fight between him and Diana:
--->"Did you honestly think you could challenge me?! I am the God of War! I killed thousands during the War in Heaven! I drove Nightmare Moon from the steps of Olympus, and I broke the walls of Tartarus! Why do you not see that anything you do is pointless, Amazon?!"
* ''FanFic/SonicXDarkChaos''
** [[spoiler: Maledict]] introduces himself with an epic one in Episode 63.
---> "I am who I AM. I am the Master of the Emeralds. I am the god of this world, the Evil One, prince of the powers of the air. My eyes bring perdition, my hands reap what is sown. My words strike fear into the hearts of mortals. I am Lord of the Demons, Conqueror and Unifier of the universe. I am the roaring lion that devours the souls of my enemies! I am the Old Serpent, the Dragon that cleanses the stars, maker of all the dark places of creation. I am the devil, the one called Satan!
** In Episode 75, Jesus gets an awesome one too;
--> "The Son of Man didn't come to be served... but to ''serve up your ass on a platter''!"

* Lord Tydal of FanFic/TheGodSquad does not like it when you threaten his adopted daughters/baby sisters

* In ''Fanfic/DividedAndEntwined'', [[SleazyPolitician Fudge]] and [[InspectorJavert Amelia Bones]] threaten Dumbledore's position at Hogwarts. Dumbledore, whose loyalty to the Ministry has been already been fraying due to the former's boneheaded attempts at appeasement, takes time to remind them why he is the only wizard Voldemort feared, and what will happen if he becomes its enemy.
-->'''Dumbledore''': “I am growing tired of struggling to protect the innocents while remaining within the bounds of laws passed by inept and corrupt people. I would suggest you stop pushing me, before you go too far. Neither of you know what a real war is like. Ask some of the few remaining British wizards and witches who fought at my side in Grindelwald’s War and you might understand why they and all of Europe scoff when you talk of the ‘Blood War’ twenty years ago that you fear so much. Ask, and then ask yourself if you truly wish to have me as your enemy. For if it comes to it, I will not merely fight you, I will wage war against you as I did against Grindelwald.”

-->'''Raven''': "Let me be clear, Garfield Mark Logan. You will keep silent about my outing, not out of loyalty or friendship, but because you know how quickly I can destroy you should you get in my way. Speak, and I will demonstrate exactly how cruel the daughter of Trigon the Terrible can be."

** He later manages to deliver a proper one after going through a lot of CharacterDevelopment, and it astounds the rest of the cast:

[[{{Determinator}} While Eneru is hitting him with lightning bolts]]. In between dry heaving from the sheer pain of it, and internally worrying about how everything is ''starting to smell like burnt toast''.
--->'''Cross:'''Like I said, I can't deny that you're powerful… But all-powerful? Not even close. Now, let ''me'' share something with ''you'': the power that you can find on the Blue Seas.
--->That hole that you just punched in the ground? I can name at ''least'' five people off the top of my head who could do that in their sleep. I can name three who could match them blow for blow without ''any'' powers of their own. And another who can take anything those guys dish out and come back for more. And that's ''just'' the top tiers.
--->You may be powerful, but you're only anything special up here, in your little cloudy world that's just a ''puddle'' compared to the ''real'' world down below us. When I compare you to the strongest warriors in the sea—pirate, Marine, or World Government—you're not a god. You're not powerful, you're not impressive, you're not even ''special''. All you are is ''pathetic''. And if you tried going up against the monsters down there, you'd get your sorry gold-plated ass handed to you in ''ten. Seconds. FLAT.'' Just like every other hot-headed Logia.
--->'''Eneru:''' There is never, has never, and ''will never'' be ''anybody'' like me, you insignificant ''worm''.

--->[[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech Allow me… to enlighten you.]]
--->Do you think you're the only one… who lords his powers over others? Who reigns with an iron fist… and who strikes down all who speak against him?
--->N-no… there are ''hundreds'' who do that, every. Single. Day. And they do it better than you… or worse, as it were…
--->Do you think that you're the only one… who takes pleasure in the suffering of others? Who throws their head back and laughs at the agonized screams they cause… as if it were all some great ''joke?''
--->Like… hell… There are thousands… who torture and cause harm… and who enjoy it… and most… don't even ''know'' that they like it…
--->Do you think… that you're the only one… who thinks they're ''invincible?'' Who thinks so highly of themselves… that they think they're unbeatable… untouchable… so far above everyone else that they're just ''ants?''
--->hat's… hilarious… but no. There are… more people like that… in the world… than I can count… There are so many… just so ''many…''
--->Men like you… you always think you're one-of-a-kind… But that's not true. You're one-of-a-''million''. Perfectly uniform… So many of you that you're choking the ''world'', one evil act at a time… If you want unique… then you need to look at the other end of the spectrum.
--->Grgh! You need to get a new schtick, jackass, because that's starting to just ''tickle.''
--->'''Eneru:''' And who would you claim to be unique, hm? ''You?''
--->'''Cross:''' PFHA! As if! No, no, I'm worse than unique… I'm ''normal''. I'm no more unique than ''you''. How's that for a kick—! (gets kicked) AGH!
--->I'm as normal as it comes… Inside and out, just your everyday guy. People like me… people who can't stand bullies… people who won't let anyone push them around no matter what… People… who won't let bastards like you get away with shit like this… who won't hold their tongues, over shit like ''this''… even if it means they get the crap kicked out of them… even if it could ''kill them''… There's less of us than you, sure… but I'm not unique. I'm the ''norm.''
--->'''Eneru:''' Then who? If not you or I, then ''who'' do you deem to be unique?
--->'''Cross:''' There's a little-known saying on the Blue Seas, passed down from generation to generation for centuries: [[ArcWords 'D. will bring forth a storm.']] The D.s bring change, they bring upheaval and renewal… and above all, they are [[TheChosenOne the enemy of the gods]], whether they know it or not. And of the D.s alive in this current generation? I'd have to say that [[MagneticHero Monkey]] [[NotAfraidToDie D.]] [[{{Determinator}} Luffy]] is the best example there is.
--->'''Eneru:''' The ignoramus you so foolishly follow? I will grant you that he is unique in ''one'' sense, and that his strength is above norm, but that is all.

-->“You! ''You'' yourselves are the ones who come to conquer my kingdom? It has shattered, and my people have fallen and they have forgotten those golden times, but all this world is mine! And you think you will take it? Machines, tools? You think you can destroy even the pathetic fragments which are left of my realm?”

-->"Where have you run to now? [[{{VideoGame/Prototype}} Nothing can save you from me, Esteem! Not ponies! Not puppets! Not gods!]]"
** She gets another big one near the end of the story.
-->"I am Twilight Sparkle, [[spoiler: and I am the end of war]]."

* ''Fanfic/ThinkingInLittleGreenBoxes'' has the following from the "[[ComicBook/ThePunisher Punisher's]] War Journal":
--> ''I've finally figured out how to bypass the defenses of [[Franchise/HarryPotter Voldemort's]] hideout. It was actually easier than dealing with the Mob, since Death Eaters aren't quite as good as taking pain as they are dishing it out. They also have absolutely no experience or talent for psychological warfare or interrogation, rather they just choose to cast a few spells and expect things to work. They also don't expect people to be able to dodge. They called me a muggle, whatever that means, I called them target practice.''

* ''FanFic/BurningBlack'' has this in Act 4, Chapter 22, when Remy and Timmy face off at the lot of Dark Spire 2. Timmy has spent the past few hours going through the worst possible night he's ever been through, is running on magical fumes, and Remy has just impaled him on a sword not two minutes ago when he finally gets fed up and growls this out:
-->"You have really, '''really''' gotten on my nerves tonight, Remy. You've kidnapped my friends, you hurt your own fairy, [[spoiler:you teamed up with pixies to murder Timmy Turner]], you threw my anti-fairies out a window while they were hurt, you clocked me on the head with a ''freaking fireplace poker'', and worst of all, '''ruined''' the dress Caleb '''bought''' for me!"

-->''The boy billionaire's eyes seemed to just bug out of his head at the list of crimes.''

-->"So you know what? I'm going to tell you something, and you'd better listen good, because I'm only saying it once." [[He takes Remy's dagger out of his hand and holds it up to show him.]] "I am an immortal; I can never die. I can take this dagger, which has your name written on it, and stab myself in the heart with it. Just stab it right in there. It'll hurt, but it won't kill me. I'll bleed all over it, and then I'll send it to the police, with a note, that says 'Remy Buxaplenty used this knife to kill Timothy Neogene, adopted son of Hounder and heir to the Hounder Organization.'"

-->"And then I'll go to your house and lie down on the floor and wait. Wait for the cops to show up and take pictures and collect evidence and put me in a body bag for autopsy. And you'll be hauled in and arrested and charged with '''my''' murder. And I'll just get up and walk out of the morgue. Just like that."

-->"Now, Remy, be glad, so ''very'' glad, I'm the '''good''' guy."

-->''Cue Timmy singlehandedly destroying a 500 foot tall spire with a snap of his fingers by launching it into the skies and detonating it as a magic missile.''

* In ''The Pride of Sunnydale'', Xander delivers this example: "I am a vampire hunter with over a hundred kills, I have slain an Octress Hound, an M'doka Fire Breather, a Sungoh, a Frangth, a Dessemer, and the last of the Brotherhood of Seven. I bested and slew the Vampire Warriors Three in free combat, and destroyed the demon Moloch the Corrupter."
** For the sake of context, he was possessed by a lion instead of a hyena and retained the possession.
* Tenhawk's Journeyverse contains several examples. One of the simplest is from Year Zero: East Coast and Down: "I'm sorry, I didn't introduce myself... I'm Xander Harris, Independent Demon Hunter. I save the world."
** From We Three Kings: "Nice weapon." Xander said, standing in full armored glory a bare twelve feet from the demon lord as it reached it's feet again, "but I wield Elanthielle. Sister weapon to Excalibur, Mjolnir, Sienele, and Turok. Let's see who has the most powerful ally in this battle, Demon. My money ain't on you."

* In ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' fanfiction ''Fanfic/TheParselmouthOfGryffindor'', Hermione runs down the rather impressive list of her achievements as of Second Year (most strikingly, befriending Salazar Slytherin's Basilisk) to scare Snape.

* In ''Fanfic/EqualAndOppositeAttraction'', Negi is testing Nanoha in her capacity as a magic fighter. She out-maneuvers him and powers up a Starlight Breaker:
-->"I have fought demons, monsters, robots, and summons, I have faced down the darkest depths and rescued my precious ones from its grasp. There is no obstacle I cannot surpass, no foe I that can outrun my shot.

I bested and slew the Vampire Warriors Three in free combat, and destroyed the demon Moloch the Corrupter."

* In the chapter 24 of ''FanFic/TengenToppaGurrenSolvernia'', Nia gives three badass boasts in sucession:

* ''[[Fanfic/TheUltimateEvil The Stronger Evil]]'' has this from Shendu during his [[EvilVersusEvil fight with Tarakudo]] in Chapter 11, which he is holding at a draw even while still SealedEvilInACan:
-->'''Shendu''': Do you feel it - shadow-''[[PitifulWorms worm]]''?! That is a smidgen of the force of '''true''' power! Savour this small glimpse of hope you have. For it is only this [[TakenForGranite stone casing]] which restricts me from tearing you asunder. If I were free of this skin, you would be in trouble.

* In the ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}'' fanfic "Cake and Lies", [[spoiler:Alternate Dimension/]]Wheatley delivers an hilarious one to [=GLaDOS=] after she insults him one time too many [[spoiler:and he is escaping the test chambers]]:
--->'''Wheatley:''' I HAVE A BLOODY DOCTORATE!
---> '''[=GLaDOS=]:''' YOU'RE STILL [[RunningGag A MORON]]!
--->'''Wheatley:''' THAT'S '''''DOCTOR''''' MORON TO YOU!
* ''FanFic/GettingBackOnYourHooves'': During the Mane Cast's final confrontation with [[BigBad Checker Monarch]] [[spoiler: [[BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind in a dreamscape]]]], she threatens them by [[OneWingedAngel transforming into an alicorn]]. They're not impressed, and Rarity explains why:
-->'''Rarity''': It's hard to be intimidated by a ''fake'' Alicorn, when you've dealt with the real thing. [[RememberWhenYouBlewUpTheSun We're the ones who beat Nightmare Moon and Discord.]] You didn't know that, did you?
** They then proceed to [[ClippedWingAngel kick her ass]].
* ''Fanfic/ThePrayerWarriors'' exchange them with Hades during the last chapter of The Evil Gods Part 1.
-->'''Hades''': "Fools of want to play fools game. You will never be able to defeat me. No one can beat me, [[BlasphemousBoast not even God and his eternal begotten son Jesus Christ]]. [[TheDreaded They all fear me]], and there is no way even a Christian can defeat me. No sword can stab me, because any stabs to me is creates no harm at all! And I am a master in sword fighting, greater than anything. I am the greatest of all the false gods of the Greek. [[TemptingFate There is no way on earth that you can beat me!]]"
-->'''Prayer Warriors''': "[[ExactWords We are in hell, not on earth]], and we have a weapon greater than a sword." ([[CurbStompBattle they kill him through prayer]]). "This is one lesson you should learn, never take on a Prayer Warrior! We will win all the time, for God is on our side!"
** Clarisse gets one before her death in Threat of Satanic Commonism

** [[ArtisticLicenseHistory John]] [[Music/JohnLennon Lennon?]]

* Seija gives one in ''Fanfic/WeAreTheOthers'' when her knowledge of aerial combat is questioned.
-->'''Seija:''' You've had airships for a while, but to me, you've only just taken your first uncertain steps into the sky. And you don't even know how you're doing that much. You just use your 'windstones' to do it for you. My kind has been in the air since before your society even ''existed''. To you it's new, but to us it's not even worth a spare thought. You have been bound to the land for most of your existence, but the sky has ''never'' been closed to us. Do not presume to know more about matters of flight than I do; you know nothing at all about it.

* ''FanFic/TheGodEmpressOfPonykind'':
** Celestia gets a few, being [[TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}} The Emperor]] and all, such as this one during her fight against Queen Metamorpha:
--->"'''You are nothing! You are no more than a child lashing out against forces they could never understand! I am the Bane of Chaos, the Anathema, the Light of the Immaterium and Beacon for all whom travel its currents! I am the Empress of Ponykind, the mightiest being to have ever walked the land, and I shall smite you and purge your pathetic race from this earth for daring to challenge my power!'''"
** There's also her comment during her and Luna's fight with the [[EldritchAbomination Windigos]] in the Warp:
--->"I am the fire that burns in the heart of every stallion, mare and foal... I am the Morning Star, the Light in the shadows of the Immaterium and Beacon to all that wander it... I am the Anathema, [[TheDreaded the Bane of Chaos and Butcher of the Ruinous Powers]]. I am [[TitleDrop the God Empress of Ponykind]], the most powerful being to have ever lived... And the Warp is mine to command."
** Commander Icewind to Sombra when the latter takes over the Crystal Kingdom:
--->"You wish to take over the Crystal Kingdom’s inhabitants? You may as soon as the last of my blood has been spilled!"
** Later, Blackmane during the siege of Aesir Pass:
--->"Know this, Servants of Sombra! I am Blackmane, Wolf Lord and loyal servant of Icewind and Equestria! My ancestors tamed this land eons before your kind even had a coherent thought! I have slain wolves and other beasts with my bare hooves, killed Diamond Dogs and minotaurs in service to my lord and my Empress! And you? You are ''nothing'' compared to a true warrior, and I will slaughter you and your ilk with nary an ill thought!"
** Celestia gets another one during the Siege of Canterlot when fighting the [[EliteMooks Shadowbolts]]:
--->"'''Did you really think that you pathetic wastes of flesh could stand against''' '''''me'''''? '''I forged this world from dust and breathed life into it. I commanded the celestial bodies, and they moved at my words. I defeated the Windigoes and stood in the face of Discord, and you think that your gods will grant you victory over me? Your gods lead you to destruction, and I am more than happy to deliver it.'''"
** The sequel ''The Warmistress of Equestria'' continues the trend. [[TheFairFolk Anlindē]] and Luna trade a couple in Chapter 4. First, when Luna finds and tries to arrest her for using the Warp:
--->'''Anlindē''': I will not be treated like some beast! I am Anlindē, Seer of the Clan Elynia, devoted leader of deer, and I will erase you from existence for your intrusion!
*** Then, when Luna {{No Sell}}s her attack and prepares to actually start fighting:
--->'''Luna''': You may be a powerful mage, deer. But I am [[TitleDrop the Warmistress of Equestria]], sister of Celestia, Empress of Ponykind and Forger of Worlds. And I shall make you suffer for threatening my subjects.

* FanFic/TheGodEmpressOfPonykind:

* ''Fanfic/ForumOfThrones'': In a work of such length, there's guaranteed to be quite a couple of them.
** Much like in the source material, the house words are meant to include one. The most prominent example is House Raylan's "We Write History", which at first seems to be a rather straightforward description of their role in the society of Westeros, until you remember [[WrittenByTheWinners another popular saying about history]].
** Though he is weakened by a serious wound and having pushed himself to his limits, Terroma manages to deliver an impressive one when he faces Noelle and Marak.
--->'''Noelle:''' I've been awaiting you, Old Man. Come closer, into the light. Warm yourself at our fire, for the night is dark, and full of terrors.\\
'''Terroma:''' The night might be dark, priestess, but I am the only terror you have to fear.
** [[PrettyPrincessPowerhouse Argella Durrandon]] is very fond of giving these to remind everyone that she is every bit the badass her father is.
** A villainous one goes to Cleaver Clint Volmark, spoken to a man he is about to kill during the raid of Raylansfair.
---> '''Clint:''' I want you to look me in the eye. I want you to see the man that will slaughter your people. That will burn your city to the ground. That will fuck your precious little daughter to death. And I want you to die.
** Aegon Targaryen's BadassBoast is so effective, he sends it to each ruler in Westeros to declare war on them.
---> '''Aegon:''' Those who bend the knee will keep their lands and titles, serving as my vassals from now on. Those that refuse, I will destroy.

* In WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna raise the sun and the moon, and phrases used in the series such as "thank Celestia," "for Celestia's sake," and "as Celestia is my witness" being thrown around in the show suggest a divine status, though of course you can't throw the word 'goddess' around in a kids' show. Fanfic authors greatly enjoy writing {{Badass Boast}}s for them.

* ''Fanfic/GloriousShotgunPrincess'' features this ridiculously over the top threat from Tela Vasir:
--->"Really? Because I've been doing this three times longer than you've been ''alive'', junior. I'm going to kick your ass. I am going to ''build the machine that kicks your ass''. I am going to '''conquer Palaven to raise the empire that houses the machine that kicks your ass'''."

** [[spoiler:Harbinger/Bright Star]] delivers this one:
--->"'''I stand before you now. Broken. Defeated. But for the first time in eons, do I look upon the galaxy with fresh eyes. Stand with me, if you will.

* [[FanFic/TheWizardInTheShadows Harry]] delivers one when he gets sick of the Mouth of Sauron taunting them over Frodo's possessions.
-->'''Harry''': [[ShutUpHannibal Shut. Up.]]
-->'''The Mouth''': Ah, the black wizard speaks at last. And I see you have brought companions, lesser in power, but still, you would have been useful to Lord Sauron if you had been but willing to serve him. As it is, you are mere fleas compared to the might of the Lord of Barad-dûr.
-->'''Harry''': And why would I want to serve a being that is restricted to existence as a giant eyeball on a tower, who sends petty emissaries to lie to us and try and crush us with despair? [[ThatLiarLies If Sauron had the One Ring, he would not send something as pitiful as you out to 'negotiate' with us]]. [{{Beat}}] You spoke of whether any of us were fit to negotiate with you. [[TrueCompanions When I look at my companions]] [[BadassCrew I see people of power, nobility, impeccable lineage and courage]]. You have the [[RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething Royal House of Rohan]], whose current King fought the Witch King of Angmar, a millennia old sorcerous wraith and your master's second to a draw. You have [[TheHero the new King of Gondor and Arnor]], [[BadassInCharge who under the name of Thorongil burnt out your miserable lair of Umbar and other deeds too numerous to name]]. [[WizardClassic You have Gandalf the White, a being of such power and wisdom that you could not know or understand a fraction of his thoughts]], [[{{God}} who was sent back by Eru himself]] to face your Master's evil after fighting a [[FallenAngel dark creature of the same order as your Master to the death]]. And then you have me. I, who faced a Balrog of Morgoth, Durin's bane, and lived to tell the tale, I who fought Saruman the accursed and cast him down, I who drove the Witch King of Angmar into the earth with a power this world has not witnessed since the [[Literature/TheSilmarillion elder days]], I who killed a [[Franchise/HarryPotter Dark Wizard of equal power to any of the Nazgul in single combat at the age of 17, after drawing at the age of 14 and driving him off at 11]]. And that is just the beginning, you miserable piece of Black Numenorean slime. [[TrueCompanions My fellow wizards and witches have faced dark wizards whose cruel deeds and power would curdle the blood in your veins since they were little more than children.]] All my other companions have been [[MookHorrorShow slaughtering your master's minions in uncountable numbers]]. I think Sauron is frightened. He has seen his greatest servants fended off and destroyed, some by myself personally, by our power. [{{Beat}}] And what are you in comparison to that? You are simply the latest and by far the most pitiful of his attempts to destabilise us. Run back to your Master, wretch, grovel in front of him and tell him that he is right to fear us. We have courage, steel, [[ThePowerOfFriendship powers]] [[ThePowerOfLove your master]] [[EvilCannotComprehendGood will never understand]] and the strength to wield them effectively. Go, now, while we feel merciful, you worthless piece of [[PrecisionFStrike shit]]. [[Film/ThePrincessBride Or I will fight you to the pain. I feel I should explain at this point what that means. To the pain means the first thing you will lose will be your feet below the ankles. Then your hands at the wrists. Next your nose. After that, you will lose will be your left eye followed by your right. But your ears you keep and I'll tell you why. So that every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish. Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out, "Dear Eru! What is that thing?" will echo in your perfect ears. That is what to the pain means. It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery forever.]]
** Then he follows it up with a BreakingSpeech of his own:
-->'''Harry''': But they probably do that anyway, don't they? So you hide yourself behind a mask of metal and words that drip foul poison, hiding your twisted visage and soul from the world because you can't bear others seeing it. You serve the biggest bully because you think he can protect you from the screams and contempt as people see how far you have debased yourself in your fruitless quest for power.

* In ''The Machinations of a Trickster'' [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic MLP:FiM]], the main character Karen finds that [[spoiler: a council mage is planning on usurping Celestia and Luna]] and the following discussion happens
-->[[spoiler: '''More-than Tardy''']]: “Had I known of your abilities I would have come more prepared. But since the game is up there is no more need for subtlety. Leave Canterlot before the sun has set and I will not hunt you, you can keep your life and watch from afar as I take what belongs to me.”
-->'''Karen''': “How about no.”
-->[[spoiler: '''More-than Tardy''']]: “If you remain, I will take everything you cherish and twist it beyond recognition. All that you once looked on with pride and love will be a broken mockery of what it was. An ugly, corrupted, deformed shadow of everything you hold dear. I will not kill you, when I am done with my work, you will kill yourself.”
-->'''Karen''':“And what makes you think I just won't take all of this to Celestia and have her deal with you mr. Oh-so-scary.”
-->[[spoiler: '''More-than Tardy''']]: “Had your intentions been of exposing me you would have gone straight to her. Instead you remained and is feebly trying to outmaneuver me, you cannot win. I have made traitors out of foals, twisted them with greed and hate until they murdered their own parents for their power. I have tortured more ponies than any monster ever has, turned their souls into empty despair and burned their hearts. You cannot win, you cannot stop me. Nopony can.”
-->'''Karen''': “You seem to forget something.”
-->[[spoiler: '''More-than Tardy''']]: “I take it you are about to enlighten me.”
-->'''Karen''': “I am not a pony, and you have no idea who you are up against.”
-->[[spoiler: '''More-than Tardy''']]: “I think I shall enjoy this.”
** To drive the point home, back when Karen had just entered Equestria, he [[spoiler: took on Celestia and Luna at the same time, and held his ground.]]

* During the "[[{{Prequel}} Origins]]" arc in the ''FanFic/PonyPOVSeries'', [[spoiler: Mimic]] gives one to [[BigBad Discord]] right before [[spoiler: her DyingMomentOfAwesome]]:
-->[[spoiler: '''Mimic''']]: You float one inch towards [[MamaBear my daughters]], I'll kill you and seal your spirit in one of my horseshoes!
** During the [[BadFuture Dark World]] Series, Banana Pie delivers one on behalf of the entire Apple/Pie family when assuring Derpy that they'll protect Dinky while she's off with the rest of the new Mane Six fighting Discord:
-->"They'd have to get through every Apple and Pie alive to so much as touch her. And anyone who tries will walk away on crutches!"
** [[PhysicalGod Rancor]] manages to get one when she's ''literally'' only a few minutes old (and still adorable):
---> "...I am revenge. I am violence. I am passions. I am rancid to the core. I am one of the winds of chaos. I am nature's fury against nature's law. I am of the Draconequi!"
*** She gets another one during her BigEntrance into Discord's throne room:
---> "I am Rancor Adrestia Typhon, Animosity. All behold me, and give into your passions! Your rages! Your lusts! Your dramas! Bring forth the blood of all who have wronged you upon my altar!"
*** And another after she [[spoiler: steals Destruction's power from Discord]] and transcends to adulthood:
--->"Follow your passions, let the fire devour you, become the fire itself. Let loose the savage that exists inside each of you. And bring destruction on those who you crave revenge against."
** Celestia's sister Rota Fortuna, the Goddess of Fate, gives one to the {{Eldritch Abomination}}s she helped [[SealedEvilInACan imprison in Tartarus]], during her cameo in Clover's ''7 Dreams/Nightmares'' chapter.

** Shining Armor gets a good one at the climax of his arc, after fighting his way through [[BigBad Makarov's]] prison complex in order to rescue [[spoiler: the rest of [[BandOfBrothers Misfit Actual]]]]. The best part is, he isn't bragging; it's a simple statement of fact.
-->'''[[spoiler: Captive Audience]]''': But, how'd you get here?
-->'''Shining Armor''': [[RoaringRampageOfRescue By kicking everyone's flank who got in the way]].
** [[BigBad Chrysalis]] gives an ''epic'' villainous one to the Unicorn Interviewer in the Wedding Arc after the latter [[spoiler: is freed from her [[BrainwashedAndCrazy control]]]]:
-->"I knew fate would contort and twist back upon itself before ever allowing me to claim my hard earned victory. But tell fate ''this'', [[spoiler: Half-Light Dusk]]. If the game will cheat before letting me win, I simply have to change the rules. I WILL stand on equal footing with her. I will no longer be her or anyling else's slave. Not her, not Cocoon's, not my flesh, and most certainly not that mad creature that thinks himself king of everything. [[EvilVersusEvil He's next on my list]]. So tell me I am doomed, tell me I have no chance of winning, that I never had any chance of winning, I've heard it many times before, and I have proven them all wrong! I always grant those who look down on me their just reward. Send me to Hell and I ''SWEAR'' by every changeling that has ever lived, [[HellHasNewManagement I will devour it from the inside out like a cancer!]] Tell me an infinite number of others have made the same boast and failed and were but toys for [[EldritchAbomination Havoc]] in the end, I will be the one to make that boast reality! Lock the gates of Heaven and I will break through them! Dump me in Oblivion and I will claw my own way out! I've come too far, I have struggled for too long, to see all I have made with literal sweat, blood, and tears, to crumble to dust now. I refuse to lose!"
** Kabuto, Chrysalis' MadScientist gives one when confronted by [[spoiler: [[HeroOfAnotherStory Misfit Actual]]]]:
-->"Have you figured it out cattle? You didn't trap me: I ''am'' [[NotSoHarmlessVillain the]] [[OneWingedAngel trap]]."
** Golden Tiara ends up facing her alternate universe counterpart Spoiled Rich in a fight. She learns even though Spoiled Rich has slightly let herself go due to her rich lifestyle, she's still an excellent fighter.
-->'''Spoiled Rich''': You think since I learned how to break ponies with words I forgot how to break bones?! Wealth, status, victory, I'll have it all!

* [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds Josh]] delivers one in ''Fanfic/BloodInTheWater'':
-->He spread his arms wide, grinning madly. "Look around you, Haleigh! Your world is crumbling. Your Pokemon have been defeated. I am the true Master. You see, I'm the one people are truly afraid of. I'm the one who makes the likes of Giovanni and Ghetsis tremble in their sleep. I can wipe the floor with anyone. I've defeated [[BigGood Cynthia and Naomi]] effortlessly!"
-->Rayquaza rose up from behind him, glaring at Haleigh.
-->"Do you really think," he whispered softly, "that you will stop me?")
* ''Fanfic/SecondWind'': After Luffy once again survives being executed by Buggy due to a lightning bolt, he shouts this to the entire watching audience in Loguetown:

* The WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic[=/=]VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog crossover ''Fanfic/ChaoticHarmony;'' Dr. Eggman finds out harshly what happens when you tear through a certain purple unicorn's home.
-->'''Dr. Eggman''': A foolish choice, you stupid horse. Those who dare stand in my way will be destroyed. Now, be a good little horsy and back off!
-->'''Twilight Sparkle''': First of all, I’m not a horse, I’m a pony. A unicorn to be exact. A very powerful unicorn who has defeated more powerful enemies with the help of my friends. Second, you terrorized Ponyville, attempted to harm innocent bystanders, and caused widespread destruction on our peaceful town. But the biggest mistake you made was destroying '''MY''' library. Now, I’m going to show you why getting a unicorn angry is a ''[[OhCrap very]]'' [[OhCrap bad idea!]] ''[[spoiler: Cue a Sonic Rainbooming ass kicking by Rainbow Dash.]]''
* In the ''Fanfic/DeliverUsFromEvilSeries'', [[TheHero Dr. Watson]] delivers a [[BewareTheNiceOnes passionate]] and [[DeadlyDoctor pretty scary one]] to a captured {{Mook}}...

* From ''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/288980 Only Smile When I Lie]]'', a Doom/Loki ''Film/{{Thor}}'' fanfic:
-->'''Doom:''' [''smiling''] I have seen enough horror in my life that I'm not impressed. I have walked the road through Hell itself. I have loved monsters and had my monstrosity loved in return. ''I am not afraid.''
* In ''Fanfic/AStickySituation'' series, specifically the Franchise/{{Digimon}} / Franchise/StarWars crossover sequel "Secret of the 327th", there is a particularly impressive one that covers plenty of events in Aayla's life both prior to the story's beginning and during the fanfiction itself.
-->"I am Aayla Secura. [[spoiler:I have survived a brush with the Dark Side and recovered from losing all of my memories. I have leapt out of moving gunships and crossed chasms without bridges. I have escaped from Separatist facilities that were exploding all around me and come out without suffering a scratch. I have flown through space, blasting apart any droid that I find without prejudice. I have battled rancors, survived an assault from a swarm of Gigantoformicums and scared a bunch of pirates away from a farm by making them believe they were being attacked by a ghost. I have ridden Acklay into battle and even gone so far as to befriend them. I have destroyed Geonosian droid factories from within and faced off against zombies and Jedi infected with mind-controlling parasites. I have stood in the face of giant blasts from defoliator cannons and emerged unscathed. I have passed into the Palace of Jabba the Hutt and come out with my sanity intact. I have infiltrated an entire base of Dooku's Dark Acolytes to convert my Master back from the Dark Side and helped him to fight all of them off. I have assisted in diffusing an anti-matter bomb before it could destroy the whole of Naboo. I have fought off powerful ice monsters and run up and down on the back of the Zillo Beast – the most dangerous creature that has ever been born in this universe. I have defeated Asajj Ventress and Count Dooku, and I shall defeat you in just the same way.]]"
* Short but sweet in ''Fanfic/AGrowingAffection''. The Daimyo of the Land of Fire wants to talk to Tsunade alone, but his bodyguards protest, leading to this exchange:
-->"Tsunade-san," the Daimyo did not bother to argue with his samurai, "If I asked you, how long would it take you to incapacitate my guards and toss them outside?"
-->"Assuming you didn't want them seriously injured?" she prompted, and the Land of Fire's ruler waved his hand in agreement. She looked around at the twenty, thickly muscled, well-armed, and heavily armored men. Then she shot the ranking warrior a smug grin.
-->"Thirty seconds," she answered, "forty, tops."

* ''Fanfic/AHero'' has Dalek Sec Giving one to Kyubey:
-->''Dalek Sec'': ''I COME FROM A [[Series/DoctorWho PLACE]] WHERE [[SufficientlyAdvancedAliens GODS ROAM A-MONGST THE STARS]], WHERE THERE ARE [[RealityWarper BEINGS THAT COULD E-RASE ALL OF RE-AL-ITY]] [[PhysicalGod WITH BUT A ME-RE THOUGHT]], [[TimeMaster THAT COULD BEND TI-ME TO THEIR WILL]] [[RetGone AND FREE YOU FROM HAVING EVER BEING BORN]]!!

-->''Dalek Sec'': ''EX-TER-MINATE!!!''
* ''Fanfic/NarutoMyoushuunoFuuin'' gives us this gem when Ino tries to bully Kakashi into letting her look after Sakura after her parents die:
--> '''Kakashi''': As her Jounin sensei, that means that I am now her next of kin until she refiles her paperwork in the Ninja Registration Office. And that means that if you or your father or your sensei try to take her from me, I can have you all arrested and court-martialed. Were you aware of that? And believe me, little girl, if anyone tries to take Sakura from me right now, there will be grave consequences indeed. Because what Sakura needs right now are the people who love her, and would do anything for her, and want what is best for her more than anything else. [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech She doesn't need a selfish little girl trying to play at being a grownup, who wants to be seen taking care of her more than she wants to actually care for her. And Sakura doesn't need to be used as an excuse, and for you to attempt to use her grief as a ploy to get Sasuke's attention disgusts me]].
--> ''''Ino''': I… I…
--> '''Inoichi'''': Now wait a second, Hatake.
--> '''Kakashi''': But I'm not just Sakura's sensei. Do you know what else I am?
--> '''Ino''': [[UnderestimatingBadassery A… y-you're a Jounin]]?
--> '''Kakashi''': Mm. And I'm something of a legend in the shinobi world, did you know that? I've been inside each and every hidden village in the elemental continent and gotten back out again, and I've been listed in every single bingo book in existence for longer than you've been alive. [[TheDreaded More than half of those books give the order to immediately retreat upon sighting me]], you know, [[OneManArmy as I've slaughtered entire platoons of enemy nin without any back-up]]. I've spent years in ANBU, and have accepted more S-ranked missions than any two Konoha ninja before me combined ever have, and you should know that I have a perfect mission record.
--> '''Asuma''': That's enough, Kakashi.
--> '''Kakashi''': No, I wasn't finished. I have seniority over both your father and your sensei, both in rank and in years of service to Konoha, little girl, yet both of them are older than I am. I've killed more, bled more, and lost more than either of them. I'm better than them, both individually and combined. And I should tell you, little girl, that if someone tried to take Sakura from me just now, I wouldn't bother being nice enough to let a court-martial go through. No, I'd use every ounce of the skills I've earned to make whoever took her regret it. Now tell me, little girl. [[DidntThinkThisThrough How are you and your daddy and your sensei going to make me give Sakura to you]]?
* ''Fanfic/HarryPotterAndTheMethodsOfRationality'':
-->'''Harry''': I know you now [[spoiler: I comprehend your nature, you symbolize Death, through some law of magic you are a shadow that Death casts into the world.]] And Death is not something I will ever embrace. It is only a childish thing, that the human species has not yet outgrown. And someday... We'll get over it... And people won't have to say goodbye any more...[[spoiler:"EXPECTO PATRONUM!"]] And someday when the descendants of humanity have spread from star to star, they won't tell the children about the history of Ancient Earth until they're old enough to bear it; and when they learn they'll weep to hear that such a thing as Death had ever once existed![[spoiler:You are not invincible, and someday the human species will end you.]] I will end you if I can, by the power of mind and magic and science. I won't cower in fear of Death, not while I have a chance of winning. I won't let Death touch me, I won't let Death touch the ones I love. And even if you do end me before I end you, Another will take my place, and another, Until the wound in the world is healed at last...
** Later: "I'd fight the Dark Lord without any magic at all, if I had to. Homo sapiens didn't become the dominant species on this planet by having the sharpest claws or hardest armor - though I suppose some of that point may be lost on wizards. Still, it's beneath my dignity as a human being to be scared of anything that isn't smarter than I am."

* ''Fanfic/FatesCollide'': Attila/Altera declares, "I am the one who will destroy every Grimm on the face of the planet."

* ''Fanfic/InTheService'''s originator/extra material ''Monsters'' has [[Franchise/LyricalNanoha Signum]] explaining why making her angry is bad, while in the midst of torturing someone by turning unnecessary bits of their body to ashes.
-->"I am not some innocent Bureau mage. I am a Wolkenritter. Hell followed in my footsteps once. I am nightmare, I am hatred, I am rage and the death of worlds. Now do you understand why you should never have sought to see how far I may be pushed?"
** ''Fanfic/InTheService'' itself gives us the introduction of the Immortal Order. [[DeathIsCheap Worse yet, they mean it.]] “We are the Immortal Order. Defeat is temporary. Death is meaningless.”
** ''A Numbered Existence'' gives us Sette's take on her job: "When nightmares have their own bad dreams, they dream of me."
* The [[TheCaptain Alpha Houndoom]] in [[Fanfic/PokeWars Poké Wars: The Exigence]] says this prior to battling the Golem leader.
--> "My pack is strong. You may have taken many of us, but not all of us are gone, and you will not take another! I will show you their strength, for I carry it on my back! '''I will defeat you for those that have fallen'''!"
* Takato from the ''FanFic/TamersForeverSeries'' FREQUENTLY attempts this, though it invariably comes out as {{Narm}} both InUniverse and out
