A Power Source that is connected to negative emotions. There is a spectrum of negative emotions, such as fear, lust, and hatred. Using such a source can give power but be corruptive at a cost. Such energy may give great power seemingly more than others. Emotion Eaters can feast on negative emotions as a Power Source if they don't favor positive emotions or can't stomach positive emotions. Some cases of The Berserker are driven by negative emotions. Anger is obviously a candidate, but fear can also play a role, or self-loathing. If people utilize it, they may succumb to negative emotions, lose their rationality, become literal monsters, or become evil. There are times when this negative energy can be a force of good, where something can be negative doesn't mean it is evil. Super-Trope to The Power of Hate. Subtrope of Metaphysical Fuel. Related to As Long as There Is Evil. See also Black Magic, The Dark Side, Emotional Powers, Made of Evil, Powered by a Forsaken Child, and The Power of Lust. |

Marvel Comics: Civil War: In the aftermath of the Civil War, Robbie Baldwin, AKA Speedball, was the sole survivor of the Inciting Incident in Stamford, Connecticut, due to his Energy Absorption powers allowing him to survive the blast caused by Nitro. Speedball's powers evolved in such a way that they could only be activated when he felt physical pain, causing him to create a suit fitted with over 600 spikes — symbolic of the death toll in Stamford — and take on the name "Penance". A later storyline revealed that Robbie's old, Lighter and Softer powerset still exists, but now is only capable of manifesting when he's feeling positive emotions. The Darkforce is negative energy from the Darkforce Dimension that can usually be used for magic, but other means, like technology, can tap into it. When a person channels such a force, they can become corrupted and, thanks to overexposure, go insane. |

DC Comics: Doom Patrol: In Unstoppable Doom Patrol, Degenerate gets stronger and more durable in proportion to the strength of his negative emotions. Green Lantern: The DC Universe has the concept of the "Emotional Electromagnetic Spectrum". Colors closer to the Infrared side of the spectrum are powered by negative emotions — the Red Lantern Corps is fueled by Anger, the Orange by Avaraice, the Yellow Lanterns by Fear — but everything after Green is generally a positive emotion. Green Lanterns draw energy from willpower, Blue Lanterns from Hope, Indigo Lanterns from Compassion, Violet Lanterns from Love. The Ultraviolet Lantern Corp has Power Rings powered by Ultraviolet Emotional Energy fueled by negative emotions. The Power Rings can induce negative emotions in their users to strengthen the rings' powers. New Gods: Obtaining and using Anti-Life Equation is the ultimate goal of Darkseid in almost all of his incarnations. The Equation amounts to a mathematical proof that hope, freedom, and life are all pointless endeavors, and as such, those who hear the equation spoken aloud submit to his will. The full text of the equation, in some versions, is: |

Digimon has several examples of this: Dark Digivolution is a common example of this throughout the series, usually resulting in the hero's partner Digimon attaining a powerful yet uncontrollable Superpowered Evil Side. The most prominent examples being Tai's Skullgreymon, his Machinedramon in the 2020 reboot, Takato's Megidramon, Marcus' Shinegreymon: Ruin Mode, and Hiro's Gulusgammamon. Digimon Adventure 02: In the final battle, Malomyotismon attempts to turn the tide against the Digidestined by feeding off the depression and self-doubt of various Dark Spore-infected children to strengthen himself. Digimon Tamers: While in the digital world, the D-Reaper simply disintegrates everything it comes into contact with. In order to make the jump to the real world, however, it needs to possess a human body, not just as a means of getting but to use its mind to make sense of this new reality. In its own words, it chose Jeri for this purpose - a girl in a severe state of depression after the death of her Digimin partner Leomon - as her "data" was "so similar to the D-reaper, her thoughts focused on destruction and what you humans call sadness and despair." Even after it moves enough of its mass to the real world to no longer need her for this purpose, it still keeps her prisoner in its "brain" to continue feeding off of her negative emotions as it seeks to destroy all sapient life. Digimon Data Squad: For the first half of the series, various Digimon that found their way to the real world were usually strengthened by the negative emotions of humans, with Thomas even name-dropping the seven deadly sins as examples at a later point. |

In Sonic and the Secret Rings, the Arbian Nights counterparts to the Chaos Emeralds, the World Rings, each contain a different emotion. Three of them, specifically, encompass negative emotions: the Red Ring of Rage, the Green Ring of Hatred, and the Purple Ring of Sadness. In the game's climax, Erazor Djinn kills Shahra, making his ritual to absorb the rings' power incomplete. The action both saddens and infuriates Sonic so much, the three negative world rings leave Erazor for Sonic, turning him into Darkspine Sonic. Compared to Super Sonic, he is not invincible, but can still fly and has pyrokinetic abilities and through the battle seems much angrier than the other boss battles. | |

Havoc is power unrestricted and mutates its users into their worst possible selves. The more you embrace your selfish desires, the stronger Havoc will make you. Inversely, if you reject Havoc, it will eat you from the inside out. | |

SCP Foundation: SCP-8814 is a Downplayed example. It's a magic hammer created by a Nazi who gives people superpowers, as long as the person wielding it doesn't express viewpoints that imply any level of equality among humans. It can be wielded by anyone regardless of race or ethnicity, as long as the phrase "white power" is said to activate it, but expressing any level of belief in equality— ranging from saying "I voted for Obama" to "That's fucking disgusting. Who made this crap? I don't want anything to do with it, I don't care if it lets me fly."— dispels the effect. | |

Scootertrix the Abridged reimagines cockatrices as monsters who feed on fear and gain their powers from it. Normally they have little trouble getting fear to feed on since most ponies are rightfully afraid of the cockatrice's petrifying gaze, but they're also particularly vulnerable to the rare ponies who aren't afraid of them. | |

Persona 5: From a cultural perspective, the powers of the Phantom Thieves are this. Personas in this installment are seen as the manifestation of their user's rebellious spirit, and in Japan, conformity, politeness, obeying and revering people such as teachers, craftsmen, CEOs and politicians, and overall not rocking the boat are seen as virtues, and none of the Thieves are willing to put up with the corrupt systems that oppress them any longer, making them all Anti-Heroes at best in the eyes of Japanese culture. While some of the public admire the Phantom Thieves, even after the Okumura incident, the police open an investigation because of the societal upheaval they're causing, even if they do mostly go after criminals. | |

In Exalted, the optional Umbral Exalted all have their dark side take on a life of its own as their Shadow. When the Umbral suffers a major setback, trauma, or loss, those they care strongly about are harmed or reject them, or they're prevented from standing up for what they believe in, the Shadow becomes stronger, able to exert greater influence over the Umbral's mind until it manages a Split-Personality Takeover. However, several Umbral powers become more potent as the Shadow grows stronger. (They were, unsurprisingly, heavily inspired by the Shadow of Wraith, though the Umbral Shadow doesn't seek their destruction, as they do in Wraith.) | |

Alicorn: The Nightmare is an Ancient Evil that is drawn to anger, resentment, and jealousy, likened to the Windigos only more bloodthirsty. In ancient days it was like a storm, ripping apart the landscape and leaving nothing in its wake. In modern times, it acts more like The Corruption, feeding on a host and empowering itself by driving them to act on angry impulses against their better judgement. Its latest host was Luna, drawn to her anger and resentment of her sister, but now it has set its sights on Twilight Sparkle, feeding on her growing jealousy and resentment towards Rainbow Dash. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: It's revealed late into Season 3 that Firebending, after the Air Nomad Genocide 100 years previously, has taken on a form where negative emotions such as anger or self-loathing make it more powerful, and after Zuko defects from the Fire Nation to become Aang's Firebending instructor, he finds he can barely produce sparks because he's let go of so much anger. | |

Witch King: Expositor magic is powered by pain, domination, and death. Most practitioners quickly become amoral sociopaths if they weren't to start, but the protagonist Kai avoids being corrupted by using his own pain — his Healing Factor trivializes physical injuries, if not the emotional toll of decades as a Broken Hero. | |

Endtown: The Dittos feed on negative emotions to power their shapeshifting abilities. While they're generally friendly, when they get hungry they become abusive and monstrous, spamming their hosts' Trauma Button by shapeshifting fears and monsters from their pasts to get them to suffer and produce Ditto Food. This gets many people killed. | |

Multiverse Tales: The demons of Dimension D-667 are creatures empowered by feeding on negative human emotions such as anger, hatred, or bitterness, but the most nutritious of these to them is fear, which is why so many of them specialise in hunting humans with very specific phobias and fears. If a human conquers their fears, the demons can't affect them as well as they used to, and they can be fought and killed: conversely, there are rare examples of demons who, through exposure to positive emotions, have changed their entire nature and no longer need to eat fearful humans to stay alive, like the reformed Spinosaur demon Spinsawklion. | |

Negator's weakness is naturally the pilot's positive emotions, which it tries to prevent Chip from feeling by using its ability to create hallucinations designed to induce negative emotions. | |

However, gratitude is toxic to him, which proves his undoing when the Liam Sera Banfield comes to consider him a Guardian Angel, Entertainingly Wrongly crediting him with his good fortune in his new life (it's actually the spirit of his childhood dog twisting the Guide's attempts to destroy Liam to his favor). | |

Persona: Persona 2: Eternal Punishment: the New World Order collects Kegare throughout the story, a corruptive and even toxic substance made from humans' negative emotions. Nyalathotep uses it by pumping it into fissures, which causes an imbalance between Ideal Energy. This forces the sleeping dragon to awaken and destroy the Earth, bringing about an apocalypse that will destroy all human life. Persona 5: From a cultural perspective, the powers of the Phantom Thieves are this. Personas in this installment are seen as the manifestation of their user's rebellious spirit, and in Japan, conformity, politeness, obeying and revering people such as teachers, craftsmen, CEOs and politicians, and overall not rocking the boat are seen as virtues, and none of the Thieves are willing to put up with the corrupt systems that oppress them any longer, making them all Anti-Heroes at best in the eyes of Japanese culture. While some of the public admire the Phantom Thieves, even after the Okumura incident, the police open an investigation because of the societal upheaval they're causing, even if they do mostly go after criminals. |

In Dragon Ball GT, the Shadow Dragons are seven creatures born from the Dragon Balls themselves. The Dragon Balls were meant to only be used sparingly as the Dragon Balls would absorb positive and negative energies and release the negative energies over time. However, the creation of the Dragon Radar and the ever-increasing plethora of villains meant that the Dragon Balls were being used more and more and the negative energy was building up. Each of the seven Shadow Dragons is created from seven wishes: Hazenote Liǎng Xīng Lóng from resurrecting Bora, Ragenote Wǔ Xīng Lóng from resurrecting Goku to fight Vegeta and Nappa, Oceanusnote Liù Xīng Lóng from Oolong's wish for a pair of panties, Naturonnote Qī Xīng Lóng from Bulma and Yamcha wishing back those killed by Majin Vegeta, Nuovanote Sì Xīng Lóng from King Piccolo's restored youth, Eisnote S�n Xīng Lóng from either Bulma resurrecting King Piccolo's victims or Goku erasing the memories of Majin Buu's rampage from the minds of everyone except for the heroes and their allies (depending on the source), and Synnote Yī Xīng Lóng from Mr. Popo's resurrection of most of the Namekian people. Ironically, besides Oceanus and Nuova, all of the other Shadow Dragons were created from selfless wishes. | |

Occurred twice in the Brave Series: In The Brave Fighter of Sun Fighbird, Draias and his minions are fuelled by "Minus Energy," so many of their plots involve making people suffer or attacking things that make people feel good (e.g. attacking a flower show). Similarly, the Zonders in GaoGaiGar were fuelled by stress, so they would find hosts for Zonder Metal who had been through stressful times (like a trucker experiencing road rage or a stuck-up school principal dealing with students). |

One Piece: Played for Laughs during the Thriller Bark Saga. Perona's Hollow-Hollow Fruit powers, which allow her to summon ghosts that drain people by inducing an intense depression in those they touch, have no effect on Usopp, due to, as Usopp puts it, his "naturally negative nature". What ensues is a Curb-Stomp Battle, as Usopp appears to be fleeing from Perona the whole time, but is actually trying to riddle out the location of her real body, subduing her by making her faint from a combination of being covered in cockroaches and the fear that she's going to be crushed by a ten-ton hammer (actually an inflatable mallet). | |

Both Serpent and later Albert exploit this trope on Vent/Aile and Prometheus and Pandora late in the original game's and Advent's storylines, allowing the final phase of their respective evil plans, each involving the use of Model W at full potential, to commence. | |

Civil War: In the aftermath of the Civil War, Robbie Baldwin, AKA Speedball, was the sole survivor of the Inciting Incident in Stamford, Connecticut, due to his Energy Absorption powers allowing him to survive the blast caused by Nitro. Speedball's powers evolved in such a way that they could only be activated when he felt physical pain, causing him to create a suit fitted with over 600 spikes — symbolic of the death toll in Stamford — and take on the name "Penance". A later storyline revealed that Robbie's old, Lighter and Softer powerset still exists, but now is only capable of manifesting when he's feeling positive emotions. | |

Downplayed in Sonic the Hedgehog. Sonic Adventure establishes that the Chaos Emeralds contain both positive and negative energy, and which one you draw upon depends on your emotions. Specifically, in the final story, Chaos draws upon the Emeralds' negative energy to become Perfect Chaos, but Sonic is able to draw upon their positive energy to become Super Sonic and defeat it. It's implied that the positive energy is the more powerful of the two. | |

Jaune Arc, Lord of Hunger: Deconstructed with Jaune Arc in a Bad Powers, Good People way. Through Nihilus' subtle encouragement and influence, Jaune uses negative emotions like anger and hate to fuel his newfound Force powers and draw strength from them. However, like in Star Wars, anyone who tries to exercise restraint while wielding the Dark Side weakens themselves since the power is fueled by negative emotions like anger and hate, and it's designed for a Force user to act without restraint and embrace their worst impulses to use it to its full potential as a requirement. As it turns out becoming dependent on constantly feeling negative emotions really messes with Jaune's mental and emotional stability, allowing Nihilus to perform a Demonic Possession near the end. | |

Digimon Tamers: While in the digital world, the D-Reaper simply disintegrates everything it comes into contact with. In order to make the jump to the real world, however, it needs to possess a human body, not just as a means of getting but to use its mind to make sense of this new reality. In its own words, it chose Jeri for this purpose - a girl in a severe state of depression after the death of her Digimin partner Leomon - as her "data" was "so similar to the D-reaper, her thoughts focused on destruction and what you humans call sadness and despair." Even after it moves enough of its mass to the real world to no longer need her for this purpose, it still keeps her prisoner in its "brain" to continue feeding off of her negative emotions as it seeks to destroy all sapient life. | |

Kingdom Hearts: Darkness is created and feeds on emotions like anger, greed, fear, etc. It can give them powers related to Darkness, but overuse is dangerous. If the feelings get stronger, a person can be consumed by the Darkness and transform into a Heartless and sometimes a Nobody. | |

Rod Allbright Alien Adventures: It's mentioned that negative emotions create "negatrons", a force that subtly wears away at everything exposed to them. The Card-Carrying Villain once tried to weaponize them but failed, so they mostly just serve as a cautionary story to warn the protagonist against negative thinking. | |

Transformers: Some Decepticons are described as being "fueled" by negative emotions, making them into The Determinator. Ruckus, for example, is a ferociously loyal Decepticon warrior at least partially because of his sense of spite towards the Autobots, while Skyquake is described as similarly filled with hatred towards his enemies, disgust towards traitors and cowards, and loathing for anyone who doesn't share his mindset. | |
