Aurin has reached 75 xp in Resistance. Unlike many of his skills, he has no lore for this as this one started showing up after the lore system was shelved. A lot of his building up resistance happens passively: ie, mentioned in many of his Velvet Cabaret days, always having a bit of something in his system so he learns how to keep his head while intoxicated. His Portions for Foxes co-worker is venemous and he has taken small doses so that he's functionally immune. Throughout his flashback series, he's been put through the ringer, fed ghostwine, initiated in two runes at once, etc. He has toughened up over the years.

I'm not certain how to demonstrate "expertise" in what isn't exactly a skill, but recent examples include...

Eating Uwyn's slop without getting dysentery: viewtopic.php?t=5581
Surviving a battle with Imogen: viewtopic.php?t=5842

He's constantly trying to toughen himself up for the proverbial other shoe.

Let me know if I need to provide any other support or can answer questions.

Thank you!

Granted.

He's also put up with Hilana's endless energy, so I'm sure that counts for something...

Your Character Secrets will be updated.

Happy Wordsmithing!
