Line 161:
* [[Harry Potter (novel)|Voldemort's]] overuse of [[Soul Jar|Horcruxes]] pretty much turned him albino (and [[The Noseless|destroyed his nose]]).
* Kronski from ''[[Artemis Fowl]]'' seems to be this. He is described as having nearly transparent white skin and purple eyes. Since some forms of albinism manifest with purple eyes, and Eoin Colfer is not known for giving his humans odd eye colors, it suggests he may he albino.
* Played with a bit in the [[Star Trek: theThe Lost Era]] novel ''Well of Souls''. The character Pahl is an alien child who is more or less his race's equivalent of an albino. He's definitely creepy, but he himself is certainly not evil; his role in the novel, though, is to be a target for possession by a demonic intelligence. His "albinism" correlates with other genetic factors (latent telepathy) that make him uniquely suited for the possession. Basically, the "evil albino" trope is still touched upon, with albinism indirectly marking a vessel for evil.
* Matisse, the so-called 'King of the Romans', in the [[Matthew Hawkwood]] novel ''Rapscallion''. Hawkwood speculates that one of the reasons the Romans lurk in the lowest decks of the hulk is because of Matisse's sensitivity to light.
* The psychotic former government killer [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Lamprey]], in the first book of the ''[[Col Sec Trilogy]]'', verges on this; he's described as being deathly pale and prematurely white-haired.
Line 212:
* Also appeared in ''[[Nintendo Wars]]''.
* Goh Hinogami of ''[[Virtua Fighter]]'' fame is a blue haired albino, judo master and cold blooded assassin who works for a heartless corporation.
* {{spoiler|The true form of Mir, the ultimate antagonist in}} ''[[Ar Tonelicotonelico]]'', is that of a deathly-pale, red-eyed, emaciated girl. Probably doesn't count as a technical albino due to her hair colour, but they're definitely playing on the creepiness factor.
** {{spoiler|They do play it up, but her subsequent appearance in the second game doesn't have quite that deathly pallor. The skin tone seems to come from her having not seen natural sunlight in 400 years. She's still very pale, but it's not as exaggerated. The eyes seem to have been caused by the experiments done on her in her youth.}}
* Albedo from ''[[Xenosaga]]''. Once again, it's a shame that Bat Shit Insane Albino isn't a trope. Interestingly, he has purple eyes, which some real life albinos do have as well.
