The Take a Third Option approach to Brains Versus Brawn that combines the two traits into one character, leaning more on the Brawn side than the Brains. The opposite of Dumb Muscle. This guy has not only huge muscles and fists, but a very bright brain! Even if he's not a genius about fighting, he is otherwise the personification of Strong and Skilled. There is, however, a difference between "especially smart" and "not a total moron;" keep that in mind when adding examples. Here's a tip: A character who is strong but displays frankly average intelligence is simply not an idiot. But if said character constantly spouts technobabble and is considered an expert in some scientific field, that's especially smart. Similarly, if the bruisers are especially smart, they must also be unusually strong to qualify. "Beats people up" or "very physically fit" don't count. The converse of the Badass Bookworm. In general, a Genius Bruiser looks huge and powerfully muscled, then unexpectedly shows off an intellectual side, whereas a Badass Bookworm looks like a standard geek, but then displays a surprising amount of physical prowess. Remember, in this case Muscles Are NOT Meaningless. The character does not need to look the part to qualify for this trope, though it's never a minus. If Rank Scales with Asskicking, you may well end up with an Emperor Scientist. A Genius Bruiser is almost always also a Cultured Badass, but not necessarily. May fulfill the role of Brawn in a Brains and Brawn duo. This trope is very much Truth in Television, and often the Foil for Jerk Jock. While the latter are over-represented in team sports, Genius Bruiser types often come from individual sports, such as track and field, gymnastics, fencing, skiing, swimming, or boxing. Compare Academic Athlete. In fantasy, a Genius Bruiser is often a Magic Knight or a Mighty Glacier. This character also tends to be combined with Lightning Bruiser, as the speed is frequently tied into intelligence or very specific training. See also Minored In Ass Kicking and Smarter Than You Look. In a team specializing in brains, is The Big Guy (he is their Class 5) and if specializing in brawn, is The Smart Guy. May also be a Temperate Berserker. Contrast with Shorter Means Smarter, Dumb Muscle and Squishy Wizard. |

Glenn Jacobs, better known as Kane, has degrees in English and teaching, and has said that if he weren't wrestling, he'd be teaching. He's also a quite knowledgeable blogger in political matters. Check out "The Adventures of Citizen X in the Land of the Free" sometime. Since becoming a part-timer, he's gotten into insurance sales and is even running for local political office in 2018. Indeed, he just won the mayoral race in Knox County, Tennessee... and used his ring music to greet his supporters before his victory speech. Usually mayors don't use Slow Chemical. | |

Worm has a few, such as Weld, who is literally made of metal, but has a sharp intellect. Alexandria is best known in-universe for being a Flying Brick, but she also has Super-Intelligence. The Numbers Man first appears as the guy who seems to manage every cape's money, but later we find out that he's actually Harbinger, a former member of the Slaughterhouse Nine. The Endbringers are shown to be quite intelligent during battle, despite being Kaiju that do literally nothing but try to kill everyone. |

Xenilla (a.k.a Spacegodzilla) from The Bridge. While we got indications he was intelligent in the kaiju home realm, once he arrives in Equestria and we can understand what he's saying; he's got quite the mind on him. While most kaiju are sentient, it's obvious Xenilla was the one with the brains behind his faction. Aside from using his wit to trick his way into getting to the Crystal Empire, where he'd be stronger; he seems well learned in more trivial matters. Played for Laughs briefly when he forces the entire Crystal Court to pause and consider the illogical nature of Princesses Rule in an Empire, think it ridiculous Cadance wasn't an empress. Oh, and he's easily one of the most physically powerful kaiju in existence. His equine form being a full head taller than Shining Armor and very well muscled, retaining a portion of his true form's durability and power. This culminates in him being smart enough to trick King Sombra into his trap and then being strong enough to bash Sombra through multiple floors and walls of the castle in their battle. | |

At least two major characters in The Dragon Doctors fit the trope: Goro was in the army before becoming a legendary surgeon and joining the Dragon Doctors. She demonstrates both her Nerves of Steel and combat training during Smith's surgery: when an assassin tried to enter the operating room, she threw the scalpel Aki had just handed her like a throwing knife and casually requested another to operate with. Tanica is introduced as an assassin on the team sent to kill Smith. After she is accidentally turned into a tree during the fight, she ends up as a patient of the Dragon Doctors, and they decide to take turns keeping her company to save her from going crazy from lack of social interaction. Mori, The Smart Guy, decides on his first turn to challenge Tanica to a relaxing game of Go — and learns to his discomfiture that Tanica is good at it. It is later revealed that Tanica became an assassin specifically to pay off the student loans incurred earning her multiple university degrees. |

Many examples from The Night Unfurls: A compulsory trait for any hard-hitting hunter. Just because Kyril is a Lightning Bruiser doesn't mean he goes for the aggressive route every time. From dismantling traps, selecting at most a group of three to take out, to his occasional usage of Shaman Bone Blades, it is evident that stealth and subtlety are also his strengths. Sanakan may be a brash, restless Screaming Warrior, but that doesn't mean she is not capable of eavesdropping before cutting the Gadsden Gang down, as Chapter 7 will tell you. The mute hunter Hugh is known for his exceptional swordsmanship and marksmanship. During the same chapter, he is shown with the ability to pick locks, together with eavesdropping on the Gadsden Gang with Sanakan afterwards. As a group, orcs are considered as this. They look like dumb brutes, but some war bands are capable of showing a degree of cunning that can catch a seasoned knight off guard. Best exemplified by their crude traps and sudden ambushes in the first two chapters of the remastered version. |

Fate of the Clans: Though Cú Chulainn's been guilty of acting like an idiot several times, he's been fighting for a large majority of his life, including fighting and winning The Cattle Raid of Cooley, a seven year long war, alone. Surviving all that for as long as he did would take a massive amount of strategy. On top of that, he's skilled in several areas of combat. Tamamo herself admits that Cú Chulainn's a genius when it comes to battle. |

Keegan O'Neill stands over six feet tall and is almost all muscle. He's also a high ranking officer of Dragonstorm. Piotr Kozlov is seven feet of pure Siberian grizzly bear muscle, who is also a talented weapons designer.

George "The Animal" Steele, Bill "Masked Superstar"/"Demolition Ax" Eadie, Little Spike Dudley and Matt "Prince Albert"/"A-Train"/"Giant Bernard"/"Lord Tensai" Bloom all were teachers before getting into pro wrestling. Steele would mostly wrestle during summer vacations. Matt Striker had to resign from his teaching position because the school system found that he had taken "sick days" when he was actually wrestling in Japan, or, as in the incident that caused his dismissal, wrestling a try-out match for WWE. Caylen Croft, real name Christopher Pavone, went in the opposite direction, retiring from wrestling to become a teacher. WWE Hall of Famer Tito Santana has been a teacher since the mid-1990s, though he still works the occasional indy show. | |

He’s actually the most intelligent of the Seven and one of the few of them who actually plans ahead for the future; amongst other things, he’s the only Demiurge that bothers reverse-engineering technology from worlds he conquers. Even the reason for his Complete Immortality is something he figured out by himself and forged with his own damn hands. The others think they can just rely on their powers for all eternity and that nothing can stop them, but Jagganoth actually acknowledges threats to their power and develops contingencies. He’d be the Only Sane Man of the group, if not for the fact that he’s also an Omnicidal Maniac. | |

Pathfinder: Dr. Bensi Skule is a renowned alchemist and knowledge broker who sits at the vast web of street urchin informants known as Skule's Army. Unbeknownst to most of Absalom's citizens, the real Dr. Skule actually died years ago, and his operations were taken over by one of his experimental subjects — an adult male troll whom Skule was vivisecting in order to uncover the secrets of its Healing Factor. The new Dr. Skule is an eight-foot tall, 300 pound predatory giant who can recover from almost any injury; he's also as talented an alchemist as his predecessor and is the one who assembled Skule's Army, turning him into The Fagin of the city. Ragadahn the Water Lord is a millennia-old multiversal scholar and one of the most accomplished sages of the First World, with vast knowledge of obscure esoteric lore. He's also a titanic sea monster and a feared demigod. |

Will Heggers of AJCO is the Crew's patient engineer, and can work his way around the many machines needed to keep the Castle powered with ease. Going by MACELIPS stats, he's actually smarter than his former boss Nights as well as most of the other characters on the server. He's also absolutely enormous; the only people who beat him in terms of strength have a natural advantage due to being a demon/a robot/a Hector. He once knocked a metal door off its hinges with his bare hands! |

Not only was he a genius strategist, he also knew how to harness WAAAGH! energy to power fearsome reality-defying technology that put even Eldar tech to shame. The Beast of The Beast Arises even had Ork diplomats who could deliver a verbal beatdown to the High Lords of Terra, in fluent High Gothic. It turns out there were actually six of them.

In Dungeons & Dragons Any character or creature with a high Strength and Intelligence score will be an example by default. A Fighter/Mage build in any of the various editions uses physical ability and arcane knowledge, hopefully by combining the two into a powerful synthesis. In fourth edition, Assault Swordmages and Tactical/Resourceful Warlords rely on both strength and intelligence, and unlike the gish example above their strength is not a result of magical buffs, thus making them even better examples of this trope. The canonic Forgotten Realms character Fyodor is a big lad with an enormous sword and all the education non-witch can get in average Rashemaar village, The Berserker, and uncontrollable one at that. He also got a magic sense, can see spirits, is a good storyteller and smart enough to outtrick a drow. Sort of lampshaded, as he carries a sword that is blunt piece of metal he normally cannot swing, but fits his strength well while in Unstoppable Rage (and the sword's sheer mass makes it truly unstoppable) and bears a strong enchantment, so it can cut or chip even things immune to normal weapons, blunt or not. Ogre Magi. They are as strong as regular ogre, but they are smarter than average human. And they can use magic. While most of the Lords of the Nine Hells are both very intelligent and dangerous fighters, Bel, Lord of the First fits this trope best. He's the largest and most physically powerful of the Archdevils, but is an absolutely brilliant military mind. Indeed, most all of his type of devils, Pit Fiends, fit this very well. Powerful demons are like this too. Mariliths and nalfeshnee both have genius-level intelligence, and are strong enough to defeat small legions of enemies on their own. (To say nothing of their masters; Orcus didn't get his position just because he was the strongest.) And of course, there are the monsters the game is named after. Dragons, especially the oldest ones, are overwhelmingly powerful, and most of them have very high Intelligence scores, which only get higher as they get older. Tome of Battle's warblade was often acclaimed for this. Most melee combat classes either dump Intelligence or get it just high enough for Combat Expertise, and recieve a minimal two skill points. Warblades, on the other hand, receive four skill points, and many of their abilities key off Intelligence, meaning that most warblades invest in it. Your average warblade is a competent tactician, a skilled speaker, and an expert in military history, but still quite capable of slicing an iron golem in half. The Knowledge Devotion feat allows a character to become this, letting you roll an appropriate Knowledge check while battling an enemy (for instance, Knowledge (nature) while battling a plant) and then getting a bonus to damage proportionate to the roll. It's particularly useful for Magic Knight characters like duskblades, which get access to Knowledge skills and enough Intelligence to max them out. This also applies to hybrids from tieflings and orcs. Tieflings are known to be often very smart. Orcs are very strong. And the common children of them often unite both qualities in themselves. Bugbears, a goblinoid offshoot, look vaguely like long-eared gorillas with bear noses and are by far the biggest and strongest of the goblin races. However, they're actually above-average in terms of intellect, and surprisingly stealthy and agile - in games where they're playable, their favored class is normally Rogue. As of 5th Edition, Clerics of the Knowledge Domain can call upon the divine power of their god to gain proficiency with any tool or skill for a period. They are also - and it does bear repeating - Clerics. Most Dungeon Masters agree that this is what makes Tiamat more powerful than the Tarrasque, despite both having a challenge rating of 30note meaning that they are a fair challenge for a level 30 party... If there was a level 30.. They both have similar health and the Tarrasque's physical attacks are slightly more devastating, but Tiamat combines her physical power, breath weapons (which she can use two of each round) with wisdom and intelligence way above mortal capabilities. The Tarrasque is simply a mindless beast, Tiamat can think and scheme better than the best mortal generals on the fly. She is also a God who can only be destroyed permanently in her domain, where her power is absolute, so there's that. |

Blood Bowl: The famous Orc Star Player Varag Ghoul-Chewer, captain of the Gouged Eye has an unusually tactical mind for a greenskin. This combination of intelligence, muscle and a violent playing style has earned Varag a legion of fans. The Troll Star Player Ripper Bolgrot underwent experimental ‘sports therapy’ that greatly elevated his intelligence. Now, despite retaining the look of the average troll, Bolgrot is easily one of the smartest players to have ever taken to the Blood Bowl pitch and has become famous for his strategic plays that combine tactical manoeuvring of his teammates with extreme violence. |

Modern pro wrestling is particularly good for these. When on the road, wrestlers have a lot of time in cars and on airplanes, so they take to reading to pass the time, which ends up with quite a few rather knowledgeable autodidacts. Mickie James has been slowly but surely working toward a business degree, Shantelle Malawski (TNA Knockout Taylor Wilde) retired to focus on her psychology studies, and bodybuilder Chris Mordetzki (Chris Masters) is fond of reading books on politics on the road. | |

Klaus and Othar from Girl Genius are prime examples. They are both immense men, towering over most normal people but they are also Mad Scientists. The two of them once got into a rip-roaring brawl from one end of Castle Wulfenbach to another busting through walls as they did so. Also, the constructs known as Punch and Judy are pretty big and tough. A member of one of the "traveling Heterodyne shows" based on the adventures of the previous generation cheerfully plays Punch as the big, slow and stupid type that folklore would have him... until he meets someone who knows what he was ''really'' like, and learns that Punch was an intellectual Gentle Giant. The Jager Generals. Big, heavy-hitting bruisers... and extremely intelligent and world-wise, with literal centuries of military experience each. |

Nie Mingjue in Where There's A Will, There's A Road can hit like a megaton hammer and can think on his feet equally well. He realizes during a fight with the Spider Spirit that It Can Think, leading him to quickly try reasoning with it. He also comes up with tactics to defeat it while ducking and dodging. | |

Beauregard from Critical Role certainly qualifies. While most are quick to dismiss her due to her mannerisms and fighting style, she actually has the second highest intelligence score in the party, with high investigation and history stats baked into her subclass. She is also shown to be a skilled researcher, a devoted note taker, and exceptionally talented at sussing out hidden information, the last of which is what nets her her promotion to Expositor. This also applies to the rest of the Cobalt Soul, an order of Warrior Monks who maintain several of the largest libraries in Wildemount, and devote themselves to the Knowing Mistress, the goddess of knowledge, arcana, philosophy, and stories. |

Warhammer 40,000: The Emperor himself was a giant of a man, but also an Emperor Scientist who was said to have achieved mastery of humanity’s technology and labored for years to create what would become the Space Marines. Along with the Emperor are his sons the Primarchs, all are exceptionally intelligent with superhuman strength, most of them are either powerful warriors, great statesmen, brilliant scientists, or any combination of the three. The standout though is probably Roboute Guilliman, the Ultramarines Primarch: Guilliman was a monumentally powerful asskicker, that's true - he faced five other Primarchs and beat four, losing only to the one who was considered the greatest warrior of the eighteen) but he approached war as a science and emphasized having information over having raw power, and his real talents lay in statecraft and logistics; he literally wrote the book on how to be a Space Marine, the Codex Astartes. The Adeptus Custodes are above any Space Marine not just physically, but mentally as well. While most of their prowess is directly seen in the battlefield, where they perform feats of strength and endurance regular Marines need Terminator armor to even approach, but they are also well-educated even in topics that have little to do with warfare (such as politics and economics, giving them a hand in running the Imperium), extremely quick learners, excellent tacticians and regularly perform infiltration exercises on their own forces to find any flaws in their defense and patch them, making them expert infiltrators despite their huge presence. Techmarines of the Adeptus Astartes are field mechanics and combat engineers. With all the custom high-tech weaponry and dangerous tools they have on hand, they are also among the most formidable individuals the Space Marines can field! The Space Marine Librarians, though they're also an inversion of Squishy Wizard. They have both great Psychic Powers and all the strength and equipment of a regular Space Marine! Commander Dante of the Blood Angels is not just a mighty warrior, able to defeat almost any foe in combat, but he is also a tactical genius who has almost two millennia of experience in leading warriors to victory. Dante is so skilled in his tactical planning that, during the 7th Edition of the game, he could have two Warlord Traits when fighting certain types of battle. Warlord Gazghull Mag Uruk Thraka; not content with being as big as a Space Marine Dreadnought, he's brought the Imperial planet of Armageddon to its knees twice (the first time was just a test run, see) and, unusually for an Ork, has learned from his experiences to the extent that he can outwit most Imperial field commanders before they even make their decisions. And all whilst fighting in the front lines with his ladz. Kharn the Betrayer is from the World Eaters traitor legion and is the greatest mortal champion of Khorne. Most often he is thought of as a psychotic mountain of superhuman muscle (and he is - he wields a chainaxe called Gorechild with one arm which is too big for most men to even lift, and he once decimated two legions, one of which was his own with nothing but a flamethrower). However outside of battle he has something of a Warrior Poet streak and has unpublished philosophical treatises. Boss Snikrot, the leader of the Red Skull Kommandoz of Armageddon, is an Ork Warboss who learned how to employ guerilla warfare tactics after his Boyz were massacred by the Imperial Guard's Armageddon Ork Hunters in the initial skirmishes in the Second War of Armageddon. In fact, even by human standards, he's brilliant at leading his boyz in infiltrating Imperial positions and sabotaging them, using elaborate kunnin' plans. Ork Warbosses in general, large by definition, are sometimes portrayed as Genius Ditzes. Though mindlessly obsessed with war and destruction, and unconcerned with the losses their numerous and disposable soldiers suffer, they can and do use tactics more complex than the stereotypical "charge screaming at the enemy". The Beast was the peak of this, being a Warboss strong enough to fight a Primarch to a standstill with a mind to match. Not only was he a genius strategist, he also knew how to harness WAAAGH! energy to power fearsome reality-defying technology that put even Eldar tech to shame. The Beast of The Beast Arises even had Ork diplomats who could deliver a verbal beatdown to the High Lords of Terra, in fluent High Gothic. It turns out there were actually six of them. And Gazghull Mag Uruk Thraka is well on his way to becoming the next Beast. |

Warhammer: The Ogre warlord Greasus Goldtooth from is both a stunningly powerful (if also very lazy) warrior and an incredibly shrewd businessman who has built his empire on physical conquest, intimidation, bribes, and cunning trade agreements in equal measure. It helps that he commissioned a magic crown that increases his intellect. Burlok Damminson, Guildmaster of the Dwarven Engineers Guild, who when not maintaining cannons is ripping goblins in half with his Steampunk prosthetic claw-arm. And Malakai Makaisson, the Slayer Engineer, responsible for, among other things, a fully automatic throwing-axe launcher, various successful modifications to the repeater cannon known as the Organ Gun, and the Warhammer world's first successful airship. All of this whilst under an oath to seek an honourable and violent death. And he's a Violent Glaswegian in all but name, right doon to th'accent. Gotrek Gurnisson: former engineer, now turned into what must be the single most dangerous creature in the Warhammer world, which is no small feat. Also Azhag The Slaughterer, one of the strongest Orc warlords, who happens to have a crown that "gives him good ideas", probably because it contains the spirit of Nagash the strongest wizard ever, inventor of necromancy and all around evil dude. Most of the other famous Orcs and Goblins qualify too, especially Grobad Ironclaw, Grom the Paunch, Grimgor Ironhide and Skarsnik (if you count Gobbla). |

The Book of Mormon gives several examples: Nephi was said to be "large of stature" even in his youth, and the vocabulary and terminology he uses indicates the he might well have been a smith by trade. He also built a deep-water ship for his family and ended up leading his people once they had crossed the ocean, both in building up civilization and creating civic projects and also as a warrior. Captain Moroni was the general of the Nephite armies several hundred years later. He would end up in the middle of battle from time to time and acquit himself quite well on the field, but some of his greatest victories in the war against the Lamanites came as a direct result of the strategies and ruses he devised. Several of his sub-commanders also qualify. At the end of the narrative, Mormon is made the general of the Nephite armies specifically because (much like Nephi a thousand years earlier) he was really big and strong even from his youth. In addition to his military exploits, he was also an accomplished historian and scholar (he clearly admired Moroni so much that he named his son after him) who ended up abridging a thousand years of the spiritual history of his people to form the record that bears his name. |

In Looking for Group, Krunch Bloodrage, the Tauren minotaur-like member of the main group is known to be part of two brothers, one a scholar and one a warrior. While he is confirmed to be the scholar and is generally the most knowledgeable of the party, he often relies on pure brute strength in battle and to solve other problems. And despite being "the scholar", he has been shown to be capable of taking down a dragon and killing it without much effort. Later, we see what Krunch's brother, a proper warrior, actually looks like. Suffice to say Krunch finds it amusing that other races could mistake him for a warrior. |

Dream often has enough gear to take out the hunters solo within the first minute and remains a consistent threat in combat throughout the entire video (let's just say there's a reason the later videos end up pitting more than one hunter against Dream). He's also quite smart and resourceful, using the terrain, whatever he has on him, and the hunters' own overeager tendencies to his advantage. He'll use potions, set up vantage points, bluff the absolute hell out of the hunters, and set off traps like a bed in the Nether or a recently-crafted End Crystal in a stronghold. | |

As a member of Baylor's track and field team, Griffin finished in first place in the hurdles at both the Big 12 Conference Championship and the NCAA Midwest Regional Championship meets; he also broke the NCAA Midwest Regional hurdles record. He placed third in the NCAA meet and also participated in the U.S. Olympic Trials, in which he advanced to the semifinals. Griffin graduated in three years with a degree in political science and a 3.67 GPA, while appearing on the Dean's List twice. During his final year of college sports eligibility, he was studying for a Master's degree in communication." | |

Solid jj: Hulk in "The Avengers Interview Hulk" plays up Hulk's intelligence more, not only stating that he can physically come to blows but also has a PhD and is a nuclear physicist in his spare time. When Iron Man manages to prevent him from applying, Hulk flabbergasts the Avengers by stating that he'll see them in court for unfair hiring practices. | |
