Adaptive Regeneration
With his God Hand, when Heracles (TYPE-MOON) is killed, he regenerates and becomes immune to whatever killed him.

"That which does not kill us makes us stronger."

― Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols

The power to adapt to any physical harm as they regenerate. Combination of Damage Memorization and Regenerative Healing Factor.

Also Called

• Adaptive Healing Factor/Self-Healing
• Regenerative Adaptation

Capabilities

The user can regenerate and adapt in response to physical harm, varying from becoming less prone to scratches to being impossible to cut, from a slight immune system boost to becoming invulnerable to any biologically debilitating conditions or even increasing their own power in response to a stronger attack, from extremes such as a brief regenerative boost to even becoming immune to being killed the same way twice, this can be triggered from virtually any damage as long as it can be regenerated regardless of the method.

In short, if it causes harm it is adapted against and compensated for.
