Powers and Abilities
Emery Schaub is resistant to all forms of physical harm. He cannot be harmed by projectiles or puncturing, nor can he be poisoned, drowned, suffocated, or damaged in any conventional way. He cannot even be hurt by mental attacks, although he can still be controlled telepathically. Physical, energy, chemical, and psychic assaults have negligible effects on him. As a result of this he has unlimited stamina, enabling him to theoretically run forever without breaking a sweat. However, as a side effect of this invulnerability, his sense of touch is impaired and he is also "frozen" at the physical state he was in when his powers were activated, making his body incapable of losing or gaining weight or muscle mass.
