I've been breathing so long, I'm afraid if I stop, it will literally kill me.

I'm often breathing a super reactive and therefore toxic gas called oxygen. It's dangerous but I feel at this point it's more dangerous to stop it.
Message to all the young people out there: don't even start and don't make jokes about it. It ain't funny
Stupid me ended up with the "Super shitty lungs" perk during character creation and decided to keep the roll. From what I can tell, there was no benefit to picking it either. My char sheet just has "HAHA, BREATH BETTER, NERD!" written at the bottom...
This is why you shouldn't let the DM roll your character for you...
Just don't do what I did. You start with some basic mix right? good old 20/80/trace and you're happy. But you wonder, who doesn't wonder, so you try some different stuff right? I mean it's there, can't hurt to know cannit?
Maybe you try a little high/low humidity. you think hehe this feels a bit funny. Then it's just a small step to puffing clouds at high altitude right? next think you know you're chasing that forever. It's strange and weird but then breathing down on the ground feels so exhilarating. Nothing can stop the road you're on now.
You'll be trying diving mixes, pure oxxy, vox mods with helium and shit. You're sleeping among empty gas tanks. It's no life man, no life at all.
Make better choices, it's too late for me.
Do not, my friends, become addicted to water. It will take hold of you, and you will resent its absence!
