* ''TabletopGame/WarhammerFantasy'': Cygors are giant minotaurs whose single eye is blind to everything except magic. To them, mages and magic-infused beings such as daemons and the undead blaze brightly and irresistibly, and a cygor who spots one will stop at nothing in its attempts to kill them and consume their soul.

** Gremishkas are small, catlike creatures born from unstable magic, and which compulsively hunt mages and consume magical books and objects. They tend to attack in large numbers, and react to magic being cast or near them by redirecting it to produce effects such as firing blasts of force at the caster, healing themselves, or splitting into swarms of smaller gremishkas.

A full swarm of gremishka is outright immune to spells of 3rd-level or lower, and can [[AttackReflector reflect spells that miss it against their caster]].

* ''Fanfic/{{Mendacity}}'': Bugganes are Fae creatures resembling enormous blind moles. Like all Fae, they need magic to live, but cannot produce any of their own and get instead by hunting down and eating other magical beings. Spells are effectively useless against them, and other Fae fear them immensely.

* ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamUnicorn'': The Unicorn Gundam and its sister units are GiantMecha created with the specific purpose of combating enemy Newtype pilots, beings with telepathy and psychokinesis, by utilizing the NT-D System, an anti-Newtype operating system that enhances their abilities. The NT-D System was also designed to combat Newtype mobile suits equipped with funnels by taking control of them.

The NT-D System was also designed to combat (officially "Newtype Drive" but really "Newtype Destroyer"), a SuperMode which activates when it detects the presence of a Newtype mobile suits equipped pilot on the battlefield. In its "Destroy Mode" the Unicorn exposes additional thrusters and deploys a BrainComputerInterface in order to let its pilot keep up with Newtype reaction speeds for a short time; it is also capable of hijacking funnels by taking control ({{Attack Drone}}s which [[ElectronicTelepathy rely on Newtype telepathy to control]]) and making them turn on their owner. Ironically, the NT-D System places so much strain on its pilot that Newtypes are the only ones capable of them.using it for sustained periods.



* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'': Magerippers are a kind of small, swarming creatures that feed on the magic of other living beings. Swarms of magerippers who come across a wizard or a magical being will mob it ''en masse'' and start siphoning away their magical power, leaving them powerless and potentially killing them through physical damage as they try to wrestle it to submission.

** {{Golem}}s can fill this role with their immunity to most forms of magic; Psion-killers in particular have an immunity which lacks any holes, combined with the ability to cast an AreaOfEffect DispelMagic once per turn (while created by characters with {{Psychic Powers}} to kill their rivals, they work just fine on other kinds of magic-user as well).

->''The sheer size and ferocity of a Cygor is terrifying enough to mortal men, but those who know of their terrible hunger fear them above all. To a mage a Cygor is unutterably fearsome, for he knows that of all the warriors on the battlefield it is him alone that the Cygor wants to catch up in its gnarled and calloused hands, his flesh it wants to tear apart, and his soul it must devour to slake its unending thirst.''
