Some people become a little squeamish when they see blood. Others... well, let's just say they [[Berserk Button|don't take it nearly as well]].
 
This trope applies to whenever a character becomes incredibly deranged and/or powerful at the sight of their own blood. Perhaps their agility increases, or they become more alert, or they begin to realize their opponent [[I Am Not Left-Handed|is a serious threat]] and [[Turns Red|decide to go all out]]. In any case, their skills suddenly increase when they realize ''THEY'' are the one who's bleeding.

* In ''[[Hong Kong Action Theatre]]'', the Signature Move "Blood Rage" owes its existence to Bruce Lee above. If a character with this signature takes a wound without defending at all, his or her next attack on whoever delivered the wound is made at a +5 bonus to hit and does double damage if it connects.
* 4e [[Dungeons and& Dragons]] has the "Bloodied" status, after losing enough [[Hit Points]]. Depends on the creature or character in question, this could trigger new and exciting effects. For both the bloodied victim, or someone fighting them.
