Glacier Waif/Playing With

Basic Trope: A character that looks fragile is actually a Mighty Glacier.
 * Straight: Alice is a small, skinny girl carrying around a hammer fit for an ogre. She can use it just as effectively as any of the muscle-bound characters in the cast.
 * Exaggerated: Alice looks absolutely emaciated, yet she can move around in extremely heavy armor while wielding two BFSes as if she was wearing nothing at all.
 * Justified: Alice is granted a superhuman strength by magical forces... at the cost of her graceful agility.
 * Inverted: Biggs looks like he is built like a truck... but is really a Fragile Speedster.
 * Subverted: Rumor has it that Alice has extreme physical strength, but Alice is first actually seen in combat, she is a Fragile Speedster.
 * Double Subverted: Alice was trying out a different fighting style. Her usual fighting style involves heavy armor and a huge battle axe.
 * Parodied: She is faced against her opposite self (read: inverted).
 * Zig Zagged: Alice is a mode-shifting Jack with a Tank mode among other things.
 * Averted: Alice is no stronger than any other girl of her build.
 * Enforced: "We need a Loli in this game, but let's make her interesting by giving her ridiculous strength, and slower than the other girls!"
 * Lampshaded: "You think you're strong? Alice can go toe-to-toe with a linebacker and not budge an inch!"
 * Invoked: ???
 * Exploited: ???
 * Defied: ???
 * Discussed: ???
 * Conversed: ???
