Line 164:

* Averted in [[Dragon Age]], in which the Orlesian Empire (based on accent and general culture the world's [[Fantasy Counterpart Culture]] to France) is quite militarily competent and managed to conquer and occupy the world's [[Fantasy Counterpart Culture]] of England for eighty years. And [[Jeanne D'Archetype|Leliana]] can be one of the most [[The Archer|badass]] [[Magikarp Power|characters]] in your party at higher level.

** Not to mention [[Eleventh-Hour Ranger|Riordan]], possibly the most stone-cold badass in the game. He's introduced snapping a guard's neck through prison bars with his bare hands (after suffering extended torture and ill-treatment) and {{spoiler|leaps onto the Archdemon's back from a tower to battle it singlehandedly in midair}}.

* ''[[Punch Out]]'' gives us Glass Joe, by far the weakest fighter in all his appearances.

* ''[[Punch-Out!!]]'' gives us Glass Joe, by far the weakest fighter in all his appearances.

** He doesn't truly count, however, since you're more likely to TKO him than knock him out.

** And even Doc praises him for ''not'' surrendering. It takes a lot of things to have a 1-99 record in boxing. Cowardice is not one of them.
