* ''[[Animorphs]]'': the group never kills Yeerk-infested humans, but has no such restraint against Hork-Bajir or Taxxons. This later backfires on them when Visser One realizes only humans wouldn't kill humans, Andalites would have had no issue killing them.
* In most [[Isaac Asimov|Asimovian fiction]], this rule is in full effect with [["Three Laws"-Compliant]] robots; the first law is that they cannot harm humans. It does suffer from some [[Loophole Abuse]], though.
* In the ''[[Discworld]]'' novel ''[[Discworld/Sourcery|Sourcery]]'' we're told that wizards don't kill non-magic users because 1) They seldom notice them 2) It's not sporting, and 3) Who'd do the cleaning up and prepare meals and so on.
* In ''[[Harry Potter]]'', there are a lot of laws in place to protect the [[Muggle]] population from physical harm (though mindwiping them to uphold the [[Masquerade]] is government policy), which are frequently alluded to. The [[Fantastic Racism|Death Eaters]] throw them out the window the first chance they get.
* Shadowhunters and Downworlders in ''[[The Mortal Instruments]]'' are forbidden by the Law to hurt mundanes.
