Breathing is a pawn capacity: The ability of a character to breathe. Affects consciousness and movement.

Breathing is impaired by damaged lungs and neck. A character missing a lung has breathing reduced by 50% but can still survive. Without lungs, all breathing ceases and the organism will die. Lungs can be harvested and transplanted from other humans.

Breathing bears a small weight in the consciousness and movement capacities, hence why asthmatics will be slightly slower than healthy colonists.

It is lethal for humans and animals for Breathing to be reduced to zero.

At the time of writing, the maximum possible Breathing capacity is 120% with a healthy pawn high on luciferium and with two detoxifier lungsContent added by the Biotech DLC installed.
