So What? “What, you think a lil bite’d get me down?”

1
You possess tolerance to pain and distractions.
Used by Nan Akson, Created by lumiq.

“Boy, you should’ve seen me the first time I had the moss from the Field of Tentacles… no, it don’t bother me anymore. When you train your body up like I have, nothin’ bothers you anymore! Not to mention, I don’t got much feeling in my skin after that grease fire…”

Nan’ll tell anyone: you can walk off any injury with enough toughening up. Through mundane and magical poisonings, getting into the grit of moving the rusty circus equipment (lotsa skinny people in this crowd), and working in the kitchen conditions of her home world, Nan has gone through countless injuries and ailments. She knows how to keep at it.
