I look at it as a kinetic cushion, preventing most impacts but softening others. That's comic book physics for letting Johnny not get creamed by one good hit that gets past his DR.

Just noticed this. What's this based on? Were you wanting to build Absorption into it?
Yes, if you read just before that there's "Heals HP +80%" which is taken from Rev's alternate Absorption rules.

Next revision I'll remove "cannot wear armor" with the assumption that aside from the Thing (who likes running around in boxers), they all do wear costumes that provide armor (kevlar).
