The Family for the Whole Family
What do you do when you need some big, tough guys to menace the heroes, but don't want to risk having them actually, you know, hurt anybody? You call in The Family for the Whole Family. They're not the scary, competent, make-it-look-like-an-accident Professional Killers seen in Mafia movies; they're the Harmless, Ineffectual, and very, very Stupid Crooks
Earthy Tortoise
Narrative often draws inspiration from nature, most frequently in the form of Animal Motifs and Elemental Powers. There even are recurring animal-element pairings in fiction: for example, we have the Fiery Salamander or the Thunder Beetle. This trope is about one of such pairings, it's the link between tortoises and the ground.
This trope might exist as both the earth and tortoises are slow but extremely durable
