Line 281:
* Millibelle from ''[[Hollow Knight]]'' is a monstrously fat, but otherwise unassuming banker that you can lend money to so it won't be lost upon dying [[Nintendo Hard|(Which will happen. A lot.)]] {{spoiler|Once you give her enough, she'll take the money and run for the City of Tears' luxurious hot springs. Thankfully, you can track her down and beat your stolen funds out of her (plus interest!).}}
* In ''[[Octopath Traveler]]'', Primrose's story route gives us a ''very'' bastardly example in the form of Helgenish, her [[Starter Villain]]. An obese, violent, psychopathic tavern owner, Helgenish treats the dancers working for him as little more than sex objects that he can abuse to his heart's content, whether it be viciously beating them for displeasing him or selling them into sexual slavery. This trope is reflected in his [https://octopathtraveler.fandom.com/wiki/Helgenish#Battle_ battle sprite], which shows him reclining in a chair with [[A Glass of Chianti]] in one hand while grasping a dagger in the other and hiding it behind his back, all with a shit-eating grin on his face.

* Used straight in [https://web.archive.org/web/20101213211159/http://bukucomics.com/loserz/go/423 this] strip of ''[[Loserz]]''.
* Tharqa from ''[[Penny and Aggie]]'' practically defines this trope. The only overweight character in the entire strip, and she couldn't be more venial. Karen, while having lost weight and shaped up considerably, is still bigger than every other character except Tharqa, and is well on her way to becoming the [[Big Bad]] of the comic with her Machiavellian plans against the titular characters.
Line 343:
* Ms. Teets from ''[[Good Vibes]]''.
* Penny from ''[[The Mighty B!]]''.
* Peg-Leg Pete from ''[[Classic Disney Shorts]]'' (usually just called Pete in modern cartoons) and the rest of the Disney canon. The degrees of bastardy have varied over the years, from being a
* There's [[The Don|the mob boss Mandragora]] from [[Justice League Unlimited]], a homage to the Kingpin. Not only is he both fat, yet very physically powerful, he's also a repulsive, murderous bastard.
* There were a few ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' shorts from 1941 and 1942 that portrayed Elmer Fudd this way, his appearance based on that of Arthur Q. Bryan; unfortunately, the fat-jokes Bugs made at Elmer's expense got old quickly, and in these shorts, Bugs became far more of an unprovoked aggressor. After five of these cartoons, he was changed back.
* Ratarro from ''[[
* One ''[[Secret Squirrel]]'' short featured an obese panda thug named One-Ton as the [[Villain of the Week]], both a [[Meaningful Name]] and [[Punny Name]].

** Which makes it a subversion - as a young man he was a tall, powerful and magnificent athlete and was described as handsome. The fat really piled on when he stopped exercising and kept eating and drinking as much as ever.
*** There was also the debilitating leg injury that ''kept'' him from exercising.
