Also Called

• Radiation Invulnerability/Proof
• Radioactive Invulnerability
• UV Radiation Immunity

Capabilities

The user is either immune to radiation or its effects. Astonishingly, the user could traverse areas where normal creatures, would succumb to Acute radiation syndrome. They could simply detect radioactive substances; through its affects alone and without a Geiger counter. Disturbingly, the user would be immune to radiation-induced sickness and the eventual death it can cause. This grants a very Undead level of adaptation/immunity.
