Comfortably Numb "This too shall pass."

2
You possess tolerance to pain and distractions.
Used by Isaac McKnight, Created by Omnitox.

Issac will do his best to avoid stress, but now when he does face the pain no longer eats at his weak mortal flesh, the flesh has gone numb.

After his last job, he snagged some pages and got some glimpses of notes and documents to add to his research. With this knowledge, he crafted a serum of sorts, made from the ash, that he injected into himself with a needle he stole from work. Whatever it was made his body feel, nothing, or well almost nothing, it was a familiar feeling.

While having this power, some of his veins and arteries appear much darker than normal.
