- "Batman trained himself to sleep for 3 hours, but makes it feel like like a full nights rest."
- ― Batman (Detective Comics #776)
The power to sustain one’s self and gain renewed energy from short sleep. Not to be confused with Sleeplessness or Sleep Suppression.
Also Called
- Micro-Napping
- Short/Superhuman Sleeping
Capabilities
The user can gain the same amount of energy and recovery to the average human in shorter periods of sleep. This could vary from shorter hours to just a few minutes. Humans are also known to have a slightly quickened self healing system at night, meaning the user could potentially speed this process up while resting and regenerate if they gain wounds. The user can often sleep in 'micro-naps' while he is standing, walking, swimming or performing repetitive tasks.
