Line 126:
* Marshall from [[How I Met Your Mother]]. Shown to be a competent fighter, but only when he has to back-up one of his friends.
* Starfleet itself in ''every'' incarnation of ''[[Star Trek]]''. While most crews have a hard time following the Prime Directive at times, they all attempt to always seek a peaceful solution with enemies, ''always'' help mediate relations between ''other'' enemies, and never start a conflict. But for those who won't listen, so be it.
** Vulcans especially. Most of them are the coldly logical intellectual type who you'd never expect to be dangerous. In fact, the whole purpose of the Vulcan Nerve Pinch was because [[Gene Roddenberry]] didn't see Spock as the type who'd resort to violence to subdue a foe. Of course, as the episode "Amok Time" shows, Spock - and any other Vulcan - can fight like a trained gladiator is the need arises.
