Line 34:
* [[Moe Anthropomorphism|China]] from [[Axis Powers Hetalia]] is listed in the [[All There in the Manual|author's blog]] as 4000 years old and immortal. He's the only nation listed as such, and the only character to look the same age throughout, from the discovery of Japan (his earliest appearance) to modern day. He's a natural and non-parasitic immortal, but he lacks the invulnerability of a Type I, the conditional clause of the Type II, and the aging and suckiness factor of Type VI. It's considerably less noticable than immortality tends to be, due to the strips' [[Anachronic Order]] and the rest of the cast being [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]].
** This also extends, to a degree, to the other Nations. In addition to being [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]], it's implied that they're regenerative to a point.
* {{spoiler|The [[Split At Birth]] halves of the Yorae Dragon}} from ''[[Breath of Fire]] IV'' would likely be a Type I had the god in question NOT been split in half via a botched summoning. (In fact, it's {{spoiler|pretty explicitly proven this is the case in the [[Bad End]] when Infini destroys your party.}}) Instead, Fou-lu and Ryu end up as (functionally) Type III {{spoiler|until in the Good End Ryu separates the worlds of gods and mortals and thus they become mortal, or in the Bad End the two merge as the Infini Dragon and thus become Type I}}.
** Fou-lu in particular is arguably a Type III/Type XI in that he is a literal [[God-Emperor]] whom ultimately exhausted himself, went into torpor for 600 years as the Fou Empire's [[King in the Mountain]], and (upon awakening and discovering that [[The Empire]] he'd founded considered his "resurrection" to be an [[Unwanted Revival]]) survived multiple assassination attempts by the sitting emperor (including, at one point, being at ground zero of a [[Fantastic Nuke]] powered [[Sacrificial Lamb|by his own girlfriend]] as the "warhead"). These attacks usually result in serious injury to Fou-lu that he ultimately recovers from.
Line 43 ⟶ 40:
** For that matter, ''all'' Endless can in fact be considered Type VII immortals as well. {{spoiler|It is stated in the game that the Endless are pulled from another world--often ''not'' voluntarily--and in essence are granted immortality by the process of becoming a [[Physical God]] via summoning.}}
* You can find at least one of the various immortals of the ''[[Global Guardians PBEM Universe]]'' in each of the categories. Among others, these include: The Golden Avenger, a [[Flying Brick]] who originally fought crime in the 1940s and stopped aging when he gained his powers, has Perfect Immortality. Master Mist, the immortal sorcerer who now rules Liberia as a benevolent dictator, is Undying. Splatterman is [[Healing Factor|Regenerative]]. Mister Easter is [[Back From the Dead|Resurrective]]. The Black Lion is an [[The Undead|Undead knight]]. Abyss is an example of [[Blessed with Suck|Immortality Only]]. The Emperor is an External immortal. Major Liberty is the [[Immortality Through Legacy|tenth hero of that name]], but the general public thinks he's been the same person all along. The Bodysnatcher has Parasitic immortality, being able to switch from body to body whenever she needs a new one. Vivian von Klause is a Projected Avatar; she grows old and dies (or can be killed) like normal, but is reborn shortly thereafter. Category Zero is the exception; no characters in the GGU fit into Category Zero.
* Immortals from ''[[El Goonish Shive]]'' are essentially type I but incorporate type IV in the sense that they choose to die whenever they think they have become too powerful in order to counteract [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity]]. When they do this they pretty much start life again from scratch with only their basic nature, base power and their previous life's memories rendered as mere second hand knowledge.
** Aberrations on the other hand are magic users who went the type IX or type X route intentionally through magic in order to achieve immortality.
