Enhanced Resilience is the power to function for long periods of time without tiring or straining oneself, and to be less harmed by physical interactions.
Overview[]
The user's body is highly resistant to the build-up of lactic acid in their muscles, allowing them to be physically active for considerably longer periods than the average member of the user's species. The user can endure physical stresses beyond the capabilities of the greatest humans enabling them to do things such as operating on a "low power setting" (being able to operate efficiently for extended amounts of time), holding their breath for large periods, remain calm through stressful or painful situations, tolerate extreme hunger, unbearable thirst, and strong urges to sleep.
