	**As Psilaq said we haven't yet seen it on the show, but I'd say it's safe to assume it is similar to Superman's invulnerability. In the movie ''Superman Returns'' they try to inject Superman with a neele, but the needle bends against his skin. It create an indenture, but it cannot penetrate it. Likewise, when he is shot in the eye, the bullet is squashed on impact and it falls harmlessly to the ground. I imagine Samedi's power to be something like this. -- [[User:FlamingTomDude\|FlamingTomDude]] 2:57, 30 November 2008 (EST)		**As Psilaq said we haven't yet seen it on the show, but I'd say it's safe to assume it is similar to Superman's invulnerability.
