>>10431486well i don't know how much you know about the series if anything but the main premise is that most of the characters are pyrokinetics. the series takes pretty extreme liberties with the specifics of that so everyone's flying around throwing fireballs and curving bullets to go fight monsters.
the character i'm referring to is the big beefy captain of the main characters and he has absolutely no pyrokinetic abilities so he compensates by just working out a ton and getting huge. what i think is particularly interesting about that sell is that he isn't ever lifting cars or busting through walls, he's just like regular bodybuilder strong keeping up with freaks of nature by bringing appropriate gear and being smart about fights.
what really made me think to bring it up in the first place is that at some point the character gets kidnapped and everyone rushes to save him. right as the other characters find the captain he's restrained by some chains and the bad guys are gonna have a bug burrow into his skin and monsterify him.
there's a big dramatic moment where it becomes apparent the team won't get to the captain in time to stop the bug at which point he just flexes so hard the bug can't pierce his skin. he then breaks the chains holding him down and explains that he wasn't ever worried that he was in danger, just that he wouldn't be able to actually fight anyone to get out.
