Line 7:
When the [[Masquerade]] of an extranormal person (whether spirit, [[Time Travel|time traveler]], dimension-hopper, [[Robot Girl]] or in some cases, immortal) is able to suddenly enter society and seamlessly pose as a normal human despite the major record gaps, lack of official citizenship, or other problems that would arise if it were to occur in real life. [[Alien Among Us|Space aliens in disguise]] and even [[Human Aliens|aliens that don't need a disguise]] never seem to get the same problems with immigration that [[The Illegal|regular aliens]] have.
 
The character gets an Undead Tax Exemption. It's often implied they use mindsome controlform orof magic[[Mass to either brainwashHypnosis]], or [[A Wizard Did It|literally "magic up" an identity for themselves]]. Usually only a possibility for evil characters/monsters/vampires though; heroic ones will always be a [[Fish Out of Water]], while [[Villains Blend in Better]].
 
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.
