Nerves of Steel Hey, hey... look at me. Everything is going to be ok. You can trust me.
Visually, your body is no different, and that's the goal. Your fears, your pain, your emotions - they all need to be repressed. Now only accessible in the dreamscape, you suffer from terrifying and painful night terrors. In your sleep, your injuries and insecurities come back to eat you alive. It's all a farce, really. Until your body can truly be rid of all pain, you will suffer like everyone else.
Injuries inflicted upon the body feel warm, often due to the blood produced by the injury. Your nerves cannot receive intense signals that warn of unimaginable pain, in part due to a never-ending supply of adrenaline to the body. They are at most a light burning that tickles the nerves. While noticeable, it has no bearing on your ability to act. In addition, your mind is a fortress. You suppress your fears and traumas and are able to save face when you need to most. Pain is a distant memory that only creeps up when you make a feeble attempt at sleep. Even when drugged or knocked out cold, your nightmares are too powerful. You will spend much of your life awake, terrorized by visions that plague your mind, and by the hurt you can only feel by letting your mind sleep.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
Your Stress from Injuries and Mind Damage is reduced to 0.
If you are Stunned, asleep, drugged, or otherwise made unconscious for any reason other than being Incapacitated, you may Exert your Mind to wake up. Any penalty which was caused by this condition is removed.
