Acrofatic: Difference between revisions

Line 172:
* ''[[Dark Cloud]]'' gives us Goro, a stout little boy who can climb a tree with a few well-placed jumps. Unfortunately, [[Gameplay and Story Segregation|this agility doesn't carry over to his gameplay abilities.]]
* Tuba from [[Eternal Sonata]] falls under this banner.
* ''[[World of Warcraft]]'':
* [[World of Warcraft]] features* Bear Druids. Their main role is to use [[Kevlard|their bulk to soak up damage]]. They also need to have a very high Agility rating, as this allows them to dodge more attacks.
** They can also trigger a party-wide movement speed boost with Stampeding Roar. [[Truth in Television|Bears can run at 30 mph]].
** Pandarans pretty much embody this Trope, especially the male ones, although females are still pudgy. They're basically heavy-set panda-like humanoids who like to cook, eat, drink, and practice martial arts.
* Peater in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword]]'' is rotund and looks incredibly out of shape, but is quick enough with his tiny sword to cut a stalk of bamboo upwards of 30 times before it falls. This odd combination is [[Justified Trope|justified]] as he was once a top-ranked Sky Knight but has since retired—presumably, Peater was once even better than he is now.
* Smough in ''[[Dark Souls]]'' isn't as fast as [[Lightning Bruiser]] Ornstein, but he's pretty quick for someone so huge and bulky. Of course, Smough might not actually be that bulky under the armor.
