Superhuman Endurance

Sometimes called "enhanced endurance", Superhuman Endurance is a term used to describe the ability of some characters to push their body beyond its limit for an incredible amount of time. Characters who possess this power can force their body to continue working even when they are exhausted (usually with their willpower). An individual may develop enhanced endurance either through alien heritage, genetic manipulation or biological augmentation. Other characters may develop enhanced endurance through mystical means, or through divine intervention.

This is not to be confused with Superhuman Stamina which is the ability for characters to sustain activity constantly for a long period of time (before they finally hit their limit, if they have).
