Line 9:
Sometimes a particular group is preyed upon; [[Condemned Contestant|criminals]], the homeless, and [[Disposable Sex Worker|disposable sex workers]] are popular for this. [[I'm a Humanitarian|Cannibalism]] is a special subtrope, as are some varieties of [[People Farms]]. Thematically allied with [[Powered by a Forsaken Child]]. [[Organ Theft]] is a prominent subtrope, as is [[You Are Who You Eat]]. See also [[To Serve Man]]. Compare [[Creepy Souvenir]], when folks take body parts as trophies. [[Genuine Human Hide]] is a subtrope that refers to the use of human skin (usually but not always as clothing).
 
[[I Thought It Meant|This does not refer to]] the HR department, or more specifically, unflattering portrayals thereof. For that, see [[Inhuman Resources]]. This can be a type of [[Living Battery]]. Also has nothing to do with the [[wikipedia:Human Resources (TV series)|Netflix series of the same name.]]

Line 229:
* The main facility in ''[[The Last Guardian]]'' is kept powered by {{spoiler|The kidnapped children taken by the creatures. They are swallowed whole, rendering them unconscious until they are regurgitated into chutes atop the main building}}
* ''[[Bayonetta|Bayonetta 3]]'' has a truly crazy example in the battle against the boss of stage 6, and by that, "crazy even for ''this'' franchise. The heroine has a new technique in this game called Deadly Sin, where she enhances the powers of the demons she summons (reserved for [[Boss]] battles); to do so, she ''rips out her own heart'' to use as a component for the spell. Doesn't kill Bayonetta or even hinder her slightly, this seems to be a benefit to being an Umbral Witch, but hey, a job that results in automatic eternal damnation is sure to have ''some'' decent fringe benefits, right?
* In the ''[[Dark Souls]]'' franchise, killing enemies will cause them to drop Souls, which the player uses to increase their stats, skill levels, augment and upgrade weapons, all that stuff.
