Line 164:
* [[Warcraft]]'s pandaren are a whole race fitting this trope. They are large and stocky creatures, often even depicted with large bellies which by human standards would qualify as heavily overweight, yet:
{{quote|''Pandaren have a long tradition of mystic warfare and are exceedingly strong and agile. The traditional pandaren fighting style focuses upon mobility, speed and precision, as well as stunning acrobatic tricks.''|[http://www.wowwiki.com/Pandaren The WoWWiki]}}
* Executioner Smough from ''[[Dark Souls]]''; this Boss is not only fat, he's weighed down by full plate armor, yet can still make some pretty impressive leaps and [[Ground Pound]] attacks while swinging his massive hammer. He's not as fast and agile as [[Dual Boss|his slimmer partner, Ornstein]], but he's still a force to be reckoned with.
* ''[[Heavy Rain]]'': Do ''not'' try to spring an attack on Scott Shelby.
* Barry of ''[[Alan Wake]]'' is heavyset, double-chinned, and can keep pace with the much slimmer Alan and the toned sheriff Sarah Breaker. He occasionally complains and bends over to catch his breath, but Alan himself is a non-athletic protagonist who can only sprint a few meters before he has to do the same.
