Dept Q has a perfect example of a quiet & calm badass character (Akram), what other examples are there in television of this kind of character?

Really enjoying the character of Akram who can suddenly break out a bone breaking moment while keeping his head/composure, or even just intimidating someone by simply placing a hand on their chest.

Another one that comes to mind is Mike in Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul who can be really chill but instantly intimidating when he needs to be.
