Or any variation. Crimson and Scarlet sound especially [[Badass]]. Vermillion, less so, but you can work with it. See also [[Red Baron]].
 
=== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ===
Line 85:
* A dragon named Scarlet in the ''[[Sword of Truth]]'' series, though really it doesn't matter what the name is, you better run from a dragon if she ain't called Puff.
* Scarlett O'Hara, of ''[[Gone with the Wind]]'' wasn't exactly the southern sweetie she liked to pretend she was. She EARNED that damn not being given!
** ''[[Uninvited|]]'': A strange woman appears. She is dressed like Scarlett O'Hara]]. [[Schmuck Bait|She says "Thank you for coming back for me, my love. You will be mine forever."]] [[False Reassurance|Oh well, she's not the real person, just dressed like her.]] S'cuse me, lady [[Nightmare Fuel|--]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQCRSUN69yQ OH HOLY] [[Curse Cut Short|SHIIIII---]] [[Killed Mid-Sentence|*is ripped apart*]]

* Subverted with Carmine from ''[[Gears of War]]'', a recurring [[Red Shirt]] character.
* Crimson Fury from ''[[Twisted Metal]]''.
 
=== [[Web Comics]] ===
* A very bad example is Scarlet Foxfire, which has a color, animal, and fire, from the [[Web Comics]] of [[David Gonterman]]. Gonterman probably does actually intend her to be a badass, but seeing as how she's some sort of superpowered vixen fursuit (worn by a guy), well, her status is dubious, at best.
Line 120 ⟶ 121:
=== [[Real Life]] ===
* The [[Red Scare]].
* The very, very obvious ''The [[Red Baron]]''.
* Scarlet fever.
