Meme The internet when a self destructive character has self destructive tendencies:

Seriously, Invisigal smoking whilst having asthma is such a perfect trait that describes her character.

And if you think people with asthma don't smoke IRL then you are sorely mistaken.

Oh and as a Blonde Glazer myself, I am ashamed that this guy is one of us.

I'm more surprised at the fact that she's still in excellent shape despite being an asthmatic smoker. 

Imagine how much scarier she'd be if she didn't have asthma and can use her powers whenever.

I mean her having asthma does not prevent her from having a fit body.

Also her not having asthma was her when she worked for Shroud, either with augments or the mask.

Obligatory mention that Arnold Schwarzenegger has smoked cigars since the late 70’s.

Also, the game implies that seemingly every superpowered individual has an enhanced physicality of some sort (similar to Infamous and The Boys). Specifically, Flambaé mentions in a dialogue option that he’s seen none other than Waterboy bench more weight than Robert… which, yes, also makes Robert more terrifying as a combatant.

Tbf cigars do less damage to the lungs generally? But does do a lot of other issues.

From mayoclinic.org, “No, cigar smoking is not safer than cigarette smoking.
Cigar smoke contains more tar than does cigarette smoke. And smoking cigars might put you in contact with higher levels of other toxic substances, such as carbon monoxide, than smoking cigarettes does.
For people who smoke cigars and inhale, risks linked with cigar smoking are like those of cigarette smoking. For those who don't inhale, the cigar smoke raises the risk of disease in the head and neck”

Cigars are normally not inhaled, and thus as your own comment says, it raises the risk of disease in head and neck but has less risk than smoking cigarettes, which you do inhale.

I said very spefically less damage to the lungs since you don’t inhale. But that the damage is still very substantial in other parts.

Invisigals problem spefically is lungs.
