Human male, 38 years old and in impressively good shape and health (especially for a longtime drinker and smoker). Some people are just genetically lucky, and he's one of them.
And he needs all the luck he can get, because he's been shot at, cut up and bashed around plenty in his time. Among other things, he's got a knife scar over one eye, a gunshot scar along the side of his head that disappears into his hairline, and a bullet still lodged in one thigh from a less-than-successful strikebreaking mission. It doesn't really bother him; it's just there.
Things are much more tame on the disease side. He'd had typhoid fever a few years back, and a mild bit of scurvy when in the army, but otherwise he has a remarkably good immune system.

Not superhumanly good. Just luck and good genes.
