** ''Videogame/FinalFantasyXIII'' has the Sacrifice enemy show up at the very end of the 2nd to last dungeon and stays recurring throughout the final one, and they have the ability Death. Death in ''XIII'' is noteworthy for two reasons: 1) the spell itself is otherwise only seen as Vanille's LimitBreak ability, and does high damage if the instant kill doesn't proc, but 2) and more importantly: WeCannotGoOnWithoutYou is in play with regards to your party leader, whom can be targeted by the attack, and there's no way to negate instant death, only heavily resist it. This means any Sacrifice can randomly get lucky while targeting your leader, and send you to the game over screen in one hit.

Given how the Empress Bulblax also constantly gives birth to the little buggers, they can become deadly if left unchecked, so having one captain on Larva cleanup duty while the other uses Pikmin to attack the boss herself is not a bad idea.

** Perhaps the best example of this is [[BossInMookClothing the Warden]]. Its melee attack disables shields and will insta-kill players wearing any less than enchanted diamond armor, and its ranged attack, while less powerful, ignores shields and armor everything shy of the Resistance StatusEffect and can't be dodged, dodged (unless you're not its direct target), making it a one or two-hit kill.

* ''VideoGame/{{Nethack}}'' players use the term ''gnome with a wand of death'', which is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin. Monsters that can use items are randomly generated with items with some chance, or they can pick up items from the ground. So there is always a small chance that a low level enemy (be it a gnome, orc, or something similar) has a wand of death (or some other powerful item) that can kill you in one hit.
* ''Caverns of Zoarre'' has the "poison" or "paralysis"-style enemies (e.g. giant spiders or gelatinous cubes) all around the dungeon that, if you are unprotected, will instantly kill you if they hit with their abilities.
