The user is immune to all or most weaknesses of one’s own race, allowing them to be unaffected to their own limitations. This ability is common in every single alpha race known, though it has become apparent that other races, like certain Metahumans, can also count as this.
This ability can be obtained by a variety of means, but the most concerning method is the transformation into an alpha species or very leader of a particular race.
