This, however, is almost entirely nullified by the amount of fat present on an individual. A study conducted by /new/ in 2012 found that fat victims of traditional American rites of passage were more likely to survive and thrive than skinny kids. As a result, the momentum-stopping benefits of fat have begun to take a more important role in the evolution of most United States citizens. Furthermore, the fatter an American gets, the more powers he unlocks. As a tank class, the American is able to take lots of damage before his gigantic fat rolls are penetrated. Only armor piercing and magic damage could potentially pierce this thick coat of biological armor, but as it stands the class is quite OP, given their race's natural 50% resist to all AP damage and 80% immunity to magical effects.
