Of physical unique abilities, most are concerned with the individual mutation, although they all share the ability to offset the fatigue of their bodies and put away the need to sleep. Although it isn't absolute, and Navigators must eventually sleep, otherwise risking falling into a comatose state, it still allows them long vigils during Warp traversals, forcing the captain to swap them in their duty within relatively longer intervals than others of his crew.{{Fn|12f}} Notably elders who transformed into Heir Apparents are invariably able to breathe in water, toxic gas or even vacuum of space with their gills.{{Fn|7}} Multijointed Navigators all are contortionists, able to perform feats of extreme body elasticity and acrobacy, those whose digits hardened to claws or whose teeth are naturally sharpened are getting small benefits of always carrying some sort of weapon other than their third eye.{{Fn|2i}}
The Third Eye of a Navigator is a powerful warp conduit, as such, it makes for a powerful componant in obscure [[sorcery|sorcerous]] rituals. Some rituals utilise several of these Navigator warp eyes to attract titanic [[List of Warp Creatures|warp creatures]] that can destroy entire worlds.{{Fn|50a}}
