* ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter'': White Fatalis is one of the most powerful Elder Dragons in the series, and is both beautiful and eerie in equal measure. Its ghostly white scales and fur combined with its blood red eyes make for an imposing apperance, and when it fights it forgoes its Black and Crimson cousins flames in favor of scarlet lightning that further drives home its status as a living calamity in dragon form.

Compare RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver, for a common interpretation of another particular color combination. For a healthy dose of {{Irony}}, contrast CheeryPink; white and red being one of, if not ''the'' harshest color combination you can have means it's quite funny that combining them gets you the color most associated with softness.

White is a sterile color generally agreed upon by many to be a "pure" one, and when introduced with a touch of vibrant red, it creates a very jarring contrast. While this combination of colors can be elegant, in the contexts of certain works, a primarily white-and-red coloration can also seem uncomfortably ghastly at best, or at worst outright ''visceral'' -- white is the color of bone and bloodless skin, and red, the color of blood and bared flesh. Put them together and you get a design that can be strongly reminiscent of a [[UncannyValley pale corpse bloodily cut open]]; an unholy matrimony between LightIsNotGood and RedIsViolent, likely along with BloodyHorror. White with red accents make up most examples of this trope, but in some cases the inverse can also count.

* ''Series/{{NCIS}}'': Abby is a non-evil example: she's usually has a white or red lab coat on (although she invariably [[PerkyGoth wears some black as well]]), and is kind of creepy, but still an extremely kind person.

* ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'': Downplayed with Altera. She wears a white outfit with red highlights, and is [[BeethovenWasAnAlienSpy not quite human]] who is very robotic in her interactions. However, certain interactions show that she is rather {{Adorkable}} beyond her mid-battle EmotionlessGirl state.

* ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'': Elesh Norn (who provides the trope image above) is the leader of a theocratic faction whose goal is to bring about the [[AssimilationPlot union of flesh and machinery]] all across the universe. Her design reflects said goal quite well; a body and face cased in ivory-colored porcelain skin, contrasted by a few exposed areas of [[BodyHorror bare muscle tissue]].

* ''VideoGame/DoomEternal'': The [[OurAngelsAreDifferent Makyrs]] are usually a combination of white and red, typically with a little gold mixed in. The Khan Makyr is an even better example: she wears beautiful white armor that covers her entire body, but as she gets damaged you can see more and more of her real body, which is both blood-red in color and is more like an EldritchAbomination (complete with tentacles) than the AngelicBeauty she seems to be.

** While Infinite himself does not count for this trope (he has ''some'' white fur, but his color scheme is predominantly [[BlackAndRedAndEvilAllOver black, red, and gray]]), the second boss battle against him qualifies. It takes place in a pristine white steel area, which contrasts with his red energy attacks.

** The iconic [[MechaMooks Egg Pawns]] are redesigned to be much more menacing this time around, featuring simple white bodies with glowing red eyes or visors. While their previous incarnations were more akin to AdorableEvilMinions, here they are portrayed as unfeeling, militaristic automatons with no comedic traits whatsoever.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Megamind}}'': [[spoiler:Hal Stewart]], aka Titan, who was created by Megamind to be a superhero, but goes through BigBadSlippage and becomes TheSociopath who uses his superpowers for evil. He wears a white superhero outfit with red flames and a red cape. He also has [[FieryRedhead red hair]]. This is in contrast to the film's other two supers: Megamind, a supervillain who [[HeelFaceTurn turns good]], who wears black and has blue skin, and Metro Man, [[TheCape the typical idealistic superhero]] [[spoiler:who gets bored of helping people and becomes a slob]], whose superhero outfit is white and gold. Titan's white and red contrast was intended in-universe to look heroic, but out-of-universe, it shows his fiery, destructive personality.

** The [[spoiler:Death Egg Robot]]'s final form is white with red claws and joints. It's very unnerving partially because it's a StarfishRobot with [[TentacledTerror robotic tentacles]], and also because [[spoiler:Eggman uses the mystical Phantom Ruby to its full extent while piloting the robot, creating an eerie, dark battlefield for the robot to stand out against
