* The whiptail lizard has an average body temperature at 106 Fahrenheit.

* In ''PS238'', Suzi has an internal body temperature which can melt lead, which appears to stem from her radioactive nature. Incidents where she loses her temper are explained as "gas leaks".

Characters that can [[PlayingWithFire play with fire]] tend to exhibit this trope.

[[AC:General]]
* Many fire-related monsters like dragons, salamanders, and fire-related {{familiar}}s. Lava Beasts, fire elementals, and other creatures that actually made of some heat related substance [[ElementalEmbodiment are another trope altogether]].

* In ''Franchise/StarTrek'', the standard body temperature of a Vulcan is several degrees higher than that of a human, because they come from a [[SingleBiomePlanet desert planet]].

* The [[UltimateLifeform Pillar Men]] from ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'' have each mastered something that probably equates to a martial art in human terms. ACDC happens to use one that allows him to make his blood run at a temperature of 500 degrees celsius he then fights by poping out blood vessels and trying to spray and squirt his blood into his vitims. The results are just as [[BodyHorror horrifying]] as they should be.

* The [[OurElvesAreBetter Marat]] in the ''CodexAlera'' are slightly warmer than humans. This is important in the first book, when one is trying to sneak into a forest guarded by creatures who see in infrared.

* In {{Supernatural}} Season 4 finale, Sam Winchester was said to have reached body temperature of 150F (65C) when he was killing Lilith, courtesy of the demon blood he was using.

* The AxCrazy bioweapon Alexia Ashford from ''VideoGame/ResidentEvilCodeVeronica'''s main method of attack is slinging her blood at her foes, which combusts on contact with the air. Another host of T-Veronica, Manuela Hidalgo shows these same powers, though she's not nearly as evil as Alexia.

* Many fire typed Franchise/{{Pokemon}} are described as having a flame producing sac or other such organs in their bodies. Some Pokémon like Magcargo and Heatran literally have magma for blood.

!!Examples:

[[AC:General]]
* Many fire-related monsters like dragons, salamanders, and fire-related {{familiar}}s. Lava Beasts, fire elementals, and other creatures that actually made of some heat related substance [[ElementalEmbodiment are another trope altogether]].

[[AC:{{Anime}} and {{Manga}}]]
* Shishio, the season 1 big bad of ''RurouniKenshin''. He was shot in the head and lit on fire before being left for dead. The fire left him disfigured, and all of his sweat glands were destroyed. As such, he has incredibly high body temperature, which (apparently) grants him almost superhuman speed and strength. The downside is that he can only fight for a few minutes before the heat buildup kills him.

[[AC:{{Film}}]]
* The Assblasters from ''{{Tremors}} The Series''. As their name indicate, they fart fire to fly in a rocket-like manner.

[[AC:{{Literature}}]]
* Werewolves in ''Literature/{{Twilight}}''. (Perhaps that's why they [[WalkingShirtlessScene so rarely wear shirts]].)
* The [[OurElvesAreBetter Marat]] in the ''CodexAlera'' are slightly warmer than humans. This is important in the first book, when one is trying to sneak into a forest guarded by creatures who see in infrared.
* [[BigBad Sauron]] himself in ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings.'' The reason why his ring was glowing on his hand was because he was inhumanly hot.
* Invoked in ''TheSookieStackhouseMysteries'' (books that were the basis for TrueBlood); werewolves and other shifters are mentioned several times time as "running hotter" than their human counterparts.

[[AC:LiveActionTV]]
* ''TrueBlood'' has its [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent Werewolves]].
-->'''Alcide:''' We run hot.
* In ''Franchise/StarTrek'', the standard body temperature of a Vulcan is several degrees higher than that of a human, because they come from a [[SingleBiomePlanet desert planet]].
* In ''Series/{{Farscape}}'', Scarrans are extremely hot, and can project this heat as a weapon. Compare with Sebacceans, who are colder than humans and vulnerable to hot temperatures. Scorpius, being a hybrid of both races, needs cooling rods implanted in his head to survive.
** Technically Scorpius can survive without coolant, but will always be weak.

[[AC:TabletopGames]]
* ''DungeonsAndDragons''
** Remorhaz - hot enough that nonmagical metal weapons melt on contact and if it swallows you it's game over, instant death, no save, do not pass go, do not collect £200.
* ''{{Warhammer40000}}'' has the [[PhysicalGod Avatar of Khaine]], which has molten iron running through it's veins. It's also WreathedInFlames.

[[AC:WebComics]]
* In ''{{PS238}}'', Suzi has an internal body temperature which can melt lead, which appears to stem from her radioactive nature. Incidents where she loses her temper are explained as "gas leaks".

[[AC:RealLife]]
* The whiptail lizard has an average body temperature at 106 Fahrenheit.
* The hotheaded naked ice borer, a cryptozoological animal invented for an [[http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/Hoaxipedia/Hotheaded_Naked_Ice_Borer/ April Fool's hoax]].
* Canines in real life have normal body temperatures that are slightly higher than a human's, which may or may not have anything to do with werewolves usually having high body temperatures too.

* The "[[OurVampiresAreDifferent vampires]]" of ''IAmLegend'' are humans with a disease that ([[ZombieApocalypse among other things]]) sends the body into overdrive. They run a fever of about 103 Fahrenheit as a baseline.

** [[OrSoIHeard Apparently]], ''{{Literature/Twilight}}'' also averts MagicPants. They wrap the pants around their ankles with rubber bands.

* [[BigBad Sauron]] himself in ''TheLordOfTheRings.'' The reason why his ring was glowing on his hand was because he was inhumanly hot.

* ''TrueBlood'' has it's [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent Werewolves]].

* Many fire typed Pokémon are described as having a flame producing sac or other such organs in their bodies. Some Pokémon like Magcargo and Heatran literally have magma for blood.

* ''{{Roza}}'': The heroine's blood combusts when spilled.

* In ''StarTrek'', the standard body temperature of a Vulcan is several degrees higher than that of a human, because they come from a [[SingleBiomePlanet desert planet]].

Let's face it, [[MsFanservice some]] [[EstrogenBrigadeBait characters]] [[TheBeautifulElite are pretty damn hot]]. Other characters may have [[HotBlooded raging hot passion]]. But in this trope's case, we find fictional creatures that are ''{{literal|Metaphor}}ly'' HotBlooded (or anything that's [[AlienBlood close enough to blood]]).
