Inherent Fitness

Overview

Inherent Fitness is a set of Inherent Powers granted to all characters at level 2.

The inherent Fitness powers are all Auto Powers, providing their bonus at no cost to Endurance. They can be enhanced like other universal inherent powers such as Rest and Sprint.

The set of powers contains the same versions of all four powers from the Fitness Pool that needed to be selected as power choices prior to Issue 19.

Starting with Rebirth Issue 3 all characters are automatically awarded additional slots in Health at levels 8 and 16, and in Stamina at levels 12 and 22. Characters created prior to Issue 3 that have already passed the level threshold will automatically be granted the bonus enhancement slots. If this is not possible due to five or six enhancement slots already being assigned to the power, the additional slots can be claimed by using a respec.
