Immortality/Sandbox: Difference between revisions

* In Terry Pratchett's ''[[Discworld]]'', History Monks "Sweeper" Lu Tze and the Abbot are both mentioned as being effectively immortal by two different means. The Abbot is continually reincarnated, transferring his memories to a younger body. But Lu Tze just seems to stay as a wiry old man forever.

** Some of the Monks (including Lu-Tze) have the ability of 'circular aging'.

* ''[[Tsukihime]]'': Considering all the vampires, of course there's Type X (vampiric) and Type V (undead), though with their cannon-fodder status, calling the latter "immortal" would be pushing it. Any vampire of note is a Type III, but to be more specific...

** Arc—the last True Ancestor vampire—manages to survive ''being cut into pieces'' by Shiki's [[One-Hit Kill|attack on her "lines of death"]]. Usually, anything cut along those lines cannot be rejoined, and she would have eventually died anyway. But Arcueid has the extremely rare [[Reality Warper|"Marble Phantasm" ability (also known as "Realization of Imagination")]]. By temporarily sacrificing most of her power, she rebuilds her body (or at least, the places where she was cut) from scratch ''on the molecular level''. However, even this ability would be useless if Shiki struck her [[Deader Than Dead|"point of absolute death"]].
