Fat peasants are a departure from the established norms and a move towards realism (in our case, serfs were often thin, but I imagine a Western peasant as being rather plump). This way, two goals were achieved: firstly, something original was created, and secondly, there was no need to invent nonsensical details. The developers of Heroes 6, when creating these dryads, fulfilled, in my opinion, only the first point.
