Applications

- Enhanced Endurance
- Pain Suppression
- High level resistance to damage.
- The user can take an attack while feeling the effect later.
- The user will maintain optimal health if sickness is the aggressor, yielding to the sickness day’s later if the sickness is potent.
Levels
- Peak Human Durability: The user has conditioned metabolism enabling extraordinary efficient healing, as well as denser skin, bone, muscle, etc.
- Enhanced Durability: User's durability is augmented, but not to supernatural levels.
- Supernatural Durability:The user can withstand extreme temperatures and pressures, virtually all toxins, corrosives, punctures, and concussions without sustaining injury.
- Absolute Durability: The user absolutely cannot be injured.
Associations
- Animal Imitation; with more durable animals, such as dinosaurs, rhinos, crustaceans, turtles, etc.

Ex: Someone with Metal Mimicry might be extremely weak towards someone with Magnetism Manipulation or a person with Water Mimicry will be very weak to those with Electricity Manipulation.
