* ''Literature/LabyrinthsOfEcho'' had Max became a storage of an ancient king's sword, to turn him "less alive" and less of a death magnet. He removed and replaced it several times, but tried to avoid this, since it hurt like being stabbed for real. Until Max gave the sword away, whenever he should have been killed by magic he instead found himself in sharp pain, with torn clothes, a sword hilt sticking out of the sternum and looking not much better than a corpse (it hurts ''a lot''). This was even exploited for intimidation value.



* ''Series/PowerRangersTimeForce'' had a BigBad with the ability to pull weapons from his body. It looked ''agonizing.''

* The Raiden Shogun in ''VideoGame/GenshinImpact'' draws her sword Musou Isshin [[VictoriasSecretCompartment from her chest]]. It's not clear exactly how she is able to do this. [[spoiler: You could argue it is because she is a synthetic construct, but Ei is able to do it, too. More confusingly, for much of the game, Ei resides in a PocketDimension inside the sword itself, yet can draw the sword while there. Is this dimension recursive somehow?]]
