Is either Disability Immunity or Disability Superpower what you're thinking of? Maybe Badass Normal or Muggle Power?

Is there a trope where a character is perceived as weak by others, when in fact that weakness gives him a certain advantage? I'm thinking mainly of Tavi in The Codex Alera. He's the only one without a fury, but it allows him to think outside the box.
