* ''Fanfic/WhereLoyaltiesLie'': Dead Reckoning gives Rainbow Dash some seeds that naturally negate her pegasus magic (including WeatherManipulation and flight) for the duration of her training. This backfires when they end up in a few life or death situations where flight or firing lightning bolts would've come in handy. [[spoiler:Becomes a ChekhovsGun when Rainbow realizes that someone has been feeding Luna these same seeds, which is why she's dying; Being over a thousand years old, her body can't sustain itself without magic.]]

* From the ''Literature/LoneWolf'' gamebooks, the [[InfinityPlusOneSword Sommerswerd]] protects its wielder against most direct hostile magic, usually [[EnergyAbsorption absorbing the energy harmlessly into the blade]]. It sometimes even allows to [[AttackReflector reflect it back]] at the spell-caster. Some magical attacks, presumably from artifacts of a similar level of power, have been known to circumvent this protection, however.

* ''Franchise/{{Ghostbusters}}'' were able to identify energy readings from actual ghosts and devise a slew of custom-made technology in order to counter them. The two key items are a proton pack with neutrino wand that lets them wrangle the ghost and a ghost trap that is able to contain them, which is very effective as many ghosts have intangibility properties that are otherwise nullified. A number of other devices show up from time to time but those are the two key features.

** In ''VideoGame/BaldursGate3'', the Susser tree is a strong anti-magic field, preventing any magic from being cast within it's effective aura. The flowers act more as personal anti-magic fields, rendering the holder immune to magic (it "fizzles out" before it reaches them), but also unable to use magic. More worryingly, it also negates magical artifacts such as weapons and armor. Following some cryptic directions allows you to use the bark of the tree to make anti-magic weapons, such as a dagger that silences anyone it strikes.

** The rising sun in theory dissolves most spells or magical beings. In keeping with the author's preferences, all of the above are generalities: just as there's no such thing in this setting as a perfect defense against the non-magical, there's no form of anti-magic that stops everything.

** The rising sun in theory dissolves most spells or magical beings. beings, the idea being that the "renewal" of a new day's dawn effectively resets magic back to a base zero point. It also tends to dispel summoned demons, destroy defenseless ghosts, and dissolve enchantments[[note]]Enchantments that last more than a day are usually "layered" onto an artifact, using the same enchantment multiple times to reinforce it, and renewing it every so often as needed[[/note]].
** For TheFairFolk, if they somehow manage to break the rules that bind their existence, they suffer from a sudden loss of their magic. While this never happens to any fairies that we see, it hits [[spoiler: Harry]] ''very'' hard in ''Literature/ColdDays'': when he explicitly threatens to go against Winter Law, he ''immediately'' loses the power of the [[spoiler: Winter Knight]], resulting in his [[spoiler: back returning to its broken state]]. It doesn't affect his other powers, as they are ''not'' governed by Winter Law, however.

** Angel's Innate Technique allows her (and her [[SharingABody host]], Hana Kurusu) to extinguish any and all cursed techniques, including barriers, seals and cursed objects [[spoiler:(such as [[SealedGoodInACan the Prison Realm holding Satoru Gojo captive]])]]. [[GrandTheftMe Sorcerers incarnated via cursed objects merging with living hosts]] are especially vulnerable to her power, but attacking them carries the inevitable risk of killing their hosts.
