Here, you give a trope, and the next troper makes up an example wholesale from a media work they made up on the spot.
Both prompts and responses should follow relevant wiki rules — exactly one trope per prompt/no tropeslashing, Playing With only applies to tropes (not Trivia or YMMV), and responses need to make sense without having seen the work (because the work doesn't exist), and so forth.
For example:
Tiny Tyrannical Girl
In LightNovel.The Huge Universe Ruled By A Tiny Girl, the Big Bad of the movie is Alice, a dwarf woman who can make everyone submit to her by threatening their life.
I'll give an example:
"The J9 Unit is one to 80's and 90's science fiction and Cyberpunk of the era."

In the 80's Sci-Fi Horror film Sludge, the Blob Monster that provides the main threat throughout the story dies by slowly dissolving while its face forms a frown. The protagonist Martin, despite being the one who killed it, feels sorry for the creature, knowing that it was created to be a weapon and had no chance of being anything else.

In Munchables, while most members of the title creatures appear as simple, Ridiculously Cute Critter Anthropomorphic Food, the stronger variants that appear later move away from that trope and becomes human-like anime-styled Moe Anthropomorphisms, which includes characters like Cute Witches modeled after BLTs, Magical Girls themed around cakes and candy, and Bishōnen versions of fast food. The Funny Animal protagonists however, are consistently drawn in a chibi vaguely Sanrio-esque style.

In Western Animation/ King of the Galaxy, the Adoramites are small Winged Humanoids who take many cues from Luna Moths, and look like nothing so much as they do kittens with butterfly wings. Lord Blackstar is suitably grossed out by them.

"Give our Captain back, you jerks!"In the 80's TV show Darkrage, the protagonist Albert can painfully mess with other people's minds and drain blood from people. Coupled with his mutation making him no longer human-looking, he is assumed to be a villain by most people, but he is actually a sensitive soul who would feel guilty even if he used his powers on horrible people.

The Orc Wrestling Foundation is a wrestling company that raises orcs and trains them to be able to wrestle like humans. Some orcs can fly high from the ropes or use high-flying moves in their arsenal, some prefer to fight with their fists and feet, some prefer to throw other orcs around the arena, some prefer to fight defensively with reversals, some prefer to break another orc's limbs, some prefer to fight with weapons, some prefer to fight dirty, and some prefer to just Trash Talk. They also come in various sizes, which means some orcs can be a Big Fun, a Dumb Muscle, a Pint-Sized Powerhouse, or an Acrofatic. They can also be creative and choose their own gimmicks.
