* Near-Invisible Canada from ''AxisPowersHetalia'' is a good example: ButtMonkey? Check. ShrinkingViolet? Yep! Giving [[BoisterousBruiser America]] TheReasonYouSuckSpeech? A true CrowningMomentOfAwesome.

* Easily one of the scarier examples of this trope is Gaear Grimsrud from {{Fargo}}. He hardly ever says a thing throughout the entire movie (something [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] early on by [[SteveBuscemi Steve Buscemi]]) but if provoked or put in a situation where he might get caught... well, let's just say that [[AxCrazy you don't want to be near him and an axe]]. [[spoiler: [[LudicrousGibs Or a woodchipper for that matter.]]]]

* [[ShrinkingViolet Fluttershy]] of ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' is the quietest member of the [[IncrediblyLamePun mane cast]], on account of being, well, [[MeaningfulName shy]]. Then comes "The Best Night Ever". When she's avoided by the forest creatures of Canterlot...well [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7fQSBC4Ids see for yourself]].

* The ''TransformersPrime'' version of [[TheBlank Soundwave]] speaks using others' recorded sentances, rarely ever has a major starring role.. and can bash in heads with the greatest of ease, as [[DarkActionGirl Airachnid]] [[CurbStompBattle can attest to.]] He's the second-most feared Decepticon on the ''Nemesis'', right under Megatron himself.

* One of the things most notable about Matsu, the main character of ''Film/JoshuuSasori'', is her knack for [[TheDeterminator patiently enduring whatever hellish mistreatment gets thrown her way]] and waiting for just the right moment to ''unleash hell'' on those that wronged her. This is why she is called ''Sasori'', or "Scorpion."

* The ''TransformersPrime'' version of [[TheBlank Soundwave]] only rarely speaks, and when he does, it's always a [[IronicEcho recorded snippet of some other character's dialogue]], not anything unique to him.
** In the season finale, When [[DarkActionGirl Airachnid]] elects to take control of the Deceptions and abandon Megatron when the faction was continuously unable to contact him, Soundwave was the only one to directly oppose her, and he effortlessly defeats her when she attacked him in response. During the fight, he doesn't even make a sound, and takes only one step... Onto Airachnid's head, to finish it.
