"Yeah, guys he went up against used to say it was like hitting oak. And nights when he was outmatched, my dad's strategy was to let 'em hit him till they broke their hands. He never got knocked out, my dad. Knocked down, sure. But he, uh, always got back up. He was always on his feet when he lost."
― Matt Murdock describing his father, Jack Murdock (Daredevil TV Series)
"If there is one thing I can take pride in, I can take a beating."

Capabilities[]

Users of this ability have denser/tougher bodily tissues than the average person. Their durability is at the peak of human conditioning, which entails that users are capable of withstanding situations/being mostly unharmed by things the average person cannot like getting beaten by a thick metal bat and it would dent and bend, fall from tall stories of buildings from 200 feet without breaking any bones. They are also durable enough to survive brutal animal attacks, get hit by a train at full speed, and have an entire building collapse on top of them.

They can also withstand up to 100,000 volts of electricity, 220-degree Fahrenheit (104 degrees Celsius) of extreme heat and -65 degree Fahrenheit (-54 degree Celsius) in the freezing cold. They can survive being stabbed and shot multiple times and still keep moving, they are durable enough that small caliber bullets barely penetrate, survive a point-blank grenade explosion and get right back up in a couple seconds, they can survive a fall of 5-10 miles in the air, and take beatings from multiple low to mid-level supernatural individuals and survive.

Applications[]

Levels[]

  • Peak Human Durability: User has conditioned durability at the peak of human limits. Users can resist being jumped by multiple assailants or hit by a metal bat, survive stab/bullet wounds, and even survive against superhumans. Users can survive explosions equivalent to grenades or small explosions. They can fall from small buildings without breaking their bones. Bullets enter their body but may be stopped from reaching vital areas by muscle mass. Users can endure pain over 35 decibels to 50.
  • Enhanced Durability: User's durability is beyond peak human limits, but not to superhuman levels. Bullets ricochet from them. Survive getting hit by most speeding vehicles, and small to moderate explosions (kilograms to tens of tons TNT equivalent). They can endure events that average humans are less likely to survive but are not impossible.
  • Supernatural Durability: User's durability is superhuman, being in six main types.
    • Type l: Users can resist being hit by trucks, buses, trains, and speeds over subsonic speeds, endure temperatures that can burn most metals, or freeze liquids in minutes, moderate to massive explosions (tens to hundreds of tons TNT equivalent), getting shot by ammunition.
    • Type ll: Users can resist getting hit by objects moving at the speed of sound. Endure massive to atomic explosions (hundreds to kilotons TNT equivalent), getting shot by missiles, most temperatures not commonly created on Earth, less destructive natural disasters.
    • Type lll: Users can resist being damaged by objects of supersonic speeds, atomic to hydrogen explosions worth of energy (kilotons to hundreds of megatons), endure natural disasters and created ones, and most dangerous forms of energy, tolerate armor penetration shots, and survive asteroid impacts.
    • Type lV: Users are close to near-indestructible, able to endure being hit by objects at hypersonic speeds, resist enormous hydrogen explosions ever recorded and theorized to volcanic eruption worth of energy. Tolerate temperatures near kelvin and below negatives worth, endure some cosmological/energy events (solar storms, wide-scale asteroid fallout). Users can even survive a planetary collision.
    • Type V: Users are virtually invulnerable to all who encounter them. They can endure being hit by projectiles near or at the speed of light, endure gigatons of energy and explosions that can destroy continents, planets, or planetary systems. Endure temperatures most inorganic materials won't survive and survive highly destructive universal events (supernovas, hypernovas, high particle collisions, and around black holes).
    • Type Vl: Users are considered indestructible with few exceptions. Able to survive the elimination of a galaxy, universe, and the multiverse and entities near absolute level, rare cosmological events, and objects beyond the speed of light. Only physical entities/forces on a near-omnipotent can defeat and injure the user.
  • Invulnerability: User cannot be injured by any form of physical damage.

Associations[]

Limitations[]

  • They will still be vulnerable to harm (e.g., explosions, gunshots, tasers, etc.)
    • User will still feel immense pain (unless immune), though they can take it much better than the average human.
  • This ability is not enhanced.
  • Taking a strike from a being with Supernatural Strength can brutally injure the user but might not be enough to be fatal (depends on the user with Supernatural Strength and how much of their power they are putting into the blow).
  • The user can be weakened further by users of Durability Negation.
  • Their durability can be counteracted by other users of powers that can bypass durability (like Telepathy).
