Potent Pheromones: Difference between revisions

* Love, the warden of Honey Prison from ''[[Toriko]]'' uses her pheromones to keep her prisoners and animals in check. Along with a tranquilizing effect, Love can also use them to mess with her victim's senses and make them feel a powerful sexual attraction towards her. They even mess with people's perception of her, and cause them to see her as a tall, busty bombshell as opposed to the tubby little midget she actually is.

* Beast of the the ''[[X-Men]]'' is capable of secreting pheromones that can cause women to be infatuated with him, but he doesn't use them and the only indication that he has any is [[All There in the Manual]].

** Minor Marvel villain Mandrill can exude pheromones that attract and enslave women, though particularly strong-willed women can resist them such as Black Widow and Shanna the She Devil.

** X-Men/New Warriors member Stacy X once had the power to emit pheromones that could affect bodily functions when she touched people, andsuch could causeas orgasms, vomiting, and rectal issues among others. She was among the many mutants depowered by M-Day, but is sometimes shown to have them back [[Depending on the Writer|for no real reason]].

** Wallflower, aka Lauri Collins, can generate airborne pheromones that can affect people's moods. The chemicals change people's emotions to match her feelings, which is something she barely has any control over.

** Wolverine's son Daken can control pheromones in a way that can manipulate people's emotions and sensory perceptions, causing them to feel horribly afraid, crushingly depressed, or uncharacteristically overconfident. He can also manipulate his own pheromones to the point that he can conceal his own scent, allowing him to ambush people with senses as keen as Wolverine's.

** Omega Red can generate pheromones called Death Spores that can horribly poison people, causing them to become violently sick at best and outright die at worst. They're so dangerous that he can potentially ''destroy the world'' with them, and they're capable of wearing down his own body if he doesn't regularly expel them.

** Longtime Spider-Man enemy The Lizard, aka Curt Connors can secrete pheromones that can cause people to fly into a rage. Apparently, this works by literally activating the "lizard" part of the human brain and reawakening long-dead primal instincts.

** Sleeper can use his pheromones to connect his thoughts to others' minds and mask his presence.

** Cubist can emit short-range pheromones that can alter people's perceptions into a state of confusion.

** Itsy Bitsy can secrete pheromones that can drive people into a blind rage.

** Amos, aka Andrew Graves, is a mutant who can release airborne pheromones that can drive people into an aggressive state.

** Milo Smutt is a mutant with the superpower to control his pheromones to amplify the current emotion he is feeling to other people.

** Ebenezer Laughton, aka Scarecrow, produces a pheromone that affects humans and higher animals' adrenal glands to experience fear. It can also augment his physical attributes to superhuman levels.

** [[DC Comics]]' Poison Ivy can produce pheromones that allow her to seduce and control other people.

** Encatadora, aka Lourdes Lucero, manipulates pheromones through her magical powers from the Mists of Ibella, making men fall under her control.

** The third incarnation of Crimson Fox can project pheromones that can affect people's emotions, especially men.

* Among the bits of non-cybernetic "bioware" which can be purchased by a character in ''[[Shadowrun]]'' there is "tailored pheromones", which is this trope available as a medical procedure. In gamesgame terms, it enhances the Charisma attribute of the character (how much so is determined by the level and grade of the enhancement purchased), and it only affects humans and metahumans.

** The Insect Glaive weapon also introduced in ''4'' is essentially a spear that allows its weilderwielder to control a special bug called a [[Mon|Kinsect]]. The Hunter can shoot out a pheromone bullet as a "lock-on" for it to attack a monster, and aiming it at specific monster body parts will enable the Kinsect to collect special essences that can boost the Hunter's stats.
