I know there's going to be "X logistics" problem with this question, but if humans or animals in IRL have immune systems that can adapt to withstand the disease they've encountered, should that be on any profile (fiction/real) on-site?

i.e. Disease Adaptation?

Like it's implied that humans & likely animals already resist diseases since they've already built immunity to some. (Defacto resistance to disease). There are characters that resist 1/more diseases & still can be effected by others (the Survivors in L4D, Rosie from Telltale's The Walking Dead, etc).

But alternatively, there's no good example of even IRL Crocs being resistant to diseases on-site. Also, there are powers that try to separate from normal human capabilities (Instinctive Action, Technology Manipulation, etc) by restricting their definitions so even normal people can't get said powers by definition. Like how resistance to basic diseases the immune system adapted to isn't disease resistance.

No, that's just treated as a basic trait of that type of life.

What about resisting diseases that usually evade the immune system, or are incurable? What about above average disease resistance?

It's more of an unspoken rule on this site. You can only list a common bodily trait as a notable ability if there's something supernatural or overpowered about it. Yeah, technically speaking every organic being is immune to EMPs, but you wouldn't actually list that on their profile now would you? You wouldn't give humans and a lot of other animals non-combat applicable, slow-as-molasses low tier Regeneration for the same reason either.

There's also, obviously, a variety of reasons as to why they have such a good immune system. Being part of a species that's already naturally resistant to a specific disease is one, but there's others such as them drinking the immunity boosting milk of their mothers, or taking antibiotics and vaccines at a young age.

What about resisting diseases that usually evade the immune system, or are incurable? What about above average disease resistance?

Not really sure why you're bringing up this question regarding Real Life immune systems because there aren't diseases that are 100% incurable and avoid the immune system

Yeah, the above post answers it perfectly.

We don't add obvious, universal "abilities" that virtually everyone should possess.

Didn't know this, will be counted in future profiles. IRL humans technically shouldn't have regen since the page states an accelerated rate.

"Overpowered" is subjective, I might have to make a thread on which abilities on profile could likely be subjectively overpowered or not for future profiles. (Basically, grey areas)

From one of my docs notes

Composite Human​

• Possible limited disease resistance? (Has the natural immunities to infectious incurable diseases, which can have up to a 100% fatality rate & negate the immune system)
