Line 102:
* Molly 'Bruiser' Hayes from ''[[Runaways]]'' is a superstrong mutant and a preteen girl. Marvel's website actually named her the fourth toughest female on their roster, following [[She-Hulk]], [[Ms. Marvel]], and [[X-Men/Characters/80s Members|Rogue]].
* [[The Fantastic Four|Reed and Sue Richards']] toddler son [[Goo-Goo Godlike|Franklin]] is, according to the Living Tribunal, the most powerful [[Reality Warper]] in the cosmos, although because he ''is'' a child, he has a very hard time controlling it.
* Taken [[Up to Eleven]] by Leezle Pon of the [[Green Lantern Corps]], who is not just small, he is ''microscopic'', being a super-evolved and sentient smallpox virus. Due to the deadly disease he can cause, he can't attend many GLC meetings or gatherings, but he played a pivotal role in defeating Despotellis, [[Evil Counterpart| a similar, evil virus]].

* Jeremiah in ''[[Someone Else's War]]'' may be the youngest and tiniest [[Child Soldiers|child soldier]] in his squad, but he is also the most lethal in combat, partially ''because'' his enemies [[Truth in Television|cannot in good conscience bring themselves to kill a child]].

** Harry himself, arguably. He's designed as skinny and scrawny, but well, he's the hero. Emphasized in the movies, as Daniel Radcliffe ismaxed out at a height of 5'5''.
** [[Cute Witch| Ginny]] is even shorter than Harry:

Line 169 ⟶ 170:
:* Dobby. Being a house elf, he's about three feet tall, but push him far enough, and he can use magic capable of knocking a dark wizard with Lucius Malfoy's skills off his feet.
:* Professor Flitwick has goblin blood in his family, and his short height shows it, yet he was a former Wizard Duel champion, and personally defeated Dolohov, {{spoiler| the dark wizard who murdered Remus Lupin.}}
:* Amusingly, Snape might qualify in original novels. He's stated to be shorter than Sirus, who according to ''[[Harry Potter/Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (novel)|Deathly Hallows]]'' is 5'9".
* Nine-year old [[Insistent Terminology|(Ahem! Nine and a ''half''.)]] Pippi Longstocking from [[Pippi Longstocking| the book series of the same name]]; exactly how strong she is varies depending on the book and adaptation, she's at least strong enough to lift her horse over her head with one hand. In one film adaptation, she lifts a large plank with her horse, Tommy, Annika, and several members of her dad's pirate crew on it.
