Superpower (Trait)
EFFECT
Cost 4 JP
DESCRIPTION
His body can withstand the stress of extreme pressure, such as that which is found deep underwater. The superhero has total immunity to the physical dangers of compression and decompression. His body maintains normal internal pressure no matter how dense the air or water is beyond his skin.
This adaptation offers no protection against depressurization, such as that caused by exposure to space, nor does it supply the superhero with oxygen. The superhero can still asphyxiate if he does not have sufficient oxygen. Powers that alleviate his need to breath, or equipment that provides breathable air, function normally assuming that they, too, can survive deep-see pressures.
