Line 400:
* Rich of [[Thespiphobia]] is usually this ('''usually'''). [[Berserk Button|Mess]] [[Beware the Nice Ones|with]] [[Papa Wolf|his]] [[True Companions|friends]], [[Oh Crap|however]]...
* The "Monster in the Darkness" is a gentle giant played straight. Terribly powerfull and scary, but turns out to be a nice guy.
* Adam from ''[[Girl Genius]]'' (also known as Punch) is a mute [[Frankenstein's Monster]] style creature, often depicted as a lumbering moron in plays and stories. People who know him however describe him as a wise and gentle soul who spent his spare time making toys for orphan children ([[Genius Bruiser|he is also a mechanic]]… who assisted a bunch of top-tier mad scientists for a while).
** Also Dr. Dim, who is actually stupid, but harmless (after Klaus Wulfenbach lobotomized him), and makes and cherishes his teddy bears.
* The rock giant Paddington Rumblebottom the Third from the webcomic ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20080516235330/http://www.dreamlandchronicles.com/ The Dreamland Chronicles]''.
* Roofus the robot, Rocko Sasquatch, and Goona in ''[[The Inexplicable Adventures of Bob]].''
Line 415 ⟶ 412:
* [[Homestuck|Equius]] is one of the strongest of trolls on Alternia. Even gently patting his beloved lusus - one of the strongest creatures on his planet - will leave a bruise. While he has a racist attitude, Equius speaks in a polite, formal tone and loves his moirail Nepeta (a [[Cute Bruiser]]) more than anyone else. It's interesting to note that he is also one of the less violent trolls, and only spars with his robots.
* Sawtooth Rivergrinder (often just Sawtooth for short) from ''Freefall'', is a construction droid who's very laid back most of the time, but gets a bit incenses when robots try to disassemble other robots. Not overly cautious about damaging buildings, although this is probably because, as a construction droid, he can repair most of the damage he'd be likely to do.
* Corporal Elizabeth from ''[[Schlock Mercenary]]'', a gorilla like alien about the size of an elephant. Lately they've added Corporal Chisulo, a similarly sized Neophant (elephants tweaked to be semi-bipedal), though he's more of "habitually angry giant with really good restraint".
* A giant only by comparison to his companions, the Wallaroo Brisbane of ''[[Faux Pas]]'' is one of the most laid-back characters of the strip.
