used Suspend to endure suffocation, gained immortal lungs

I am a drem cultist of entropy. Character link is here, but this happened many levels ago: https://te4.org/characters/214405/tome/ ... c87df1c51a
I got into a bad situation in the sandworm tunnels and had to allow myself to be trapped under some collapsing sand. I needed to teleport away, but no relevant talent was ready. So in order to make my psychoportation torque cool down faster, I tried using Suspend, thinking it would get me a few turns closer to teleportation. It may or may not have done that - but much more importantly, it left me unable to take any further damage from suffocation, and unable to stop suffocating. So it probably saved me from death! A strange effect.
This has had further consequences: It made me unable to exit dungeons anymore, except by using the Rod of Recall etc., because you aren't allowed to leave while you are "suffocating". So if I happen to enter a dungeon where the Rod of Recall doesn't work, then I can't leave at all...
On the plus side, I can swim forever!
