Line 11:
Can occur when the character is ''not'' extranormal, as a sleeper government agent or like Michael Knight in ''[[Knight Rider]]''. Other mundane means to set up a fake ID usually involve getting a friendly (or bribable) [[Playful Hacker|hacker]] to set up a false identity, or [[Dead Person Impersonation|impersonating someone else]]. A [[Monsters Anonymous]] group may have the resources to make one from scratch as well.
 
Where this is a situation of an immortal or special who has to fashion the normal identity afterward, the reverse, where the normal person came first then had [[Super Hero Origin|something happen]], results in a [[Secret Identity]] and likely several ~[[Shouldn't We Be Inin School Right Now?~]] moments.
 
This is a subtrope of [[Reality Ensues]]; most stories give this trope the most basic [[Hand Wave]] and be on their way. See also [[Casual Car Giveaway]], which is another situation where ordinarily expected paperwork is unnecessary.
