One remaining impassive despite adversity (5)

I believe the answer is:

stoic

(Other definitions for stoic that I've seen before include "philosophical type" , "One who endures pain with equanimity" , "One indifferent to fortune, pleasure and pain" , "One able to endure hardship; philosopher" , "Solemn ceremony" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
