A game world with compelling characters and a deep plot runs into a certain problem when death is included in the equation. If the enemies were able to kill the NPCs at any time, then the game would have to adjust the plot to believably account for their absence. This often proves technically unfeasable, especially with a large cast.
So either the death of an important NPC results in a game over (leading to the dreaded Escort Mission), or the NPC is impossible for anyone to kill at all, player or enemy. Everything from swords to bullets to magic and even superweapons... bounces off them like they're made of rubber. Even if they do get knocked down, they'll just get up again a few minutes later and dust themselves off like nothing happened. In short, the only thing that's allowed to kill them is the plot.
This is a common example of Gameplay and Story Segregation; these characters can typically be killed when the plot calls for it. It is a subtrope of Story-Driven Invulnerability.

The Breath of Winter expansion pack for the original Spellforce featured, in the early stages, Grim and Lena, who would follow you around everywhere and never, never die, even if surrounded by a dozen melee-focused opponents. Although, unusually for this trope, they began limping and ended up pretty much useless if their health bars went into the red, but a quick healing spell would get them back up to continue cruising through their your opponents.

Zig-zagged by Kirby Super Star. The game has partners which can be controlled by a second player, or the AI if the second controller isn't used. While they have the same amount of health as Kirby himself (which makes them much tougher than most of the enemies with the same form, but still mortal), they can't die from falling into bottomless pits or being crushed by scrolling levels since they just warp to Kirby when they go offscreen, and if they lose all of their health, they can be turned back into the ability, then back into themselves in a few moments. Also, when they run out of health there's a short window of time in which they can run into an enemy with an ability and get turned into the respective partner with full health. Finally, they can share health items with Kirby.

Happens in two ways in the Might and Magic series. Although you can kill any NPC walking around town, all the quest givers and important story characters are in houses or other buildings where you cannot attack. Second, you can hire NPCs to travel with you and give you buffs, but no matter how much of a beating you take, they are never harmed.

In Suikoden V, a character who is killed during one of the real-time war battles is Killed Off for Real and lost, making it impossible to gain 100% Completion... except if the character is an important storyline character (read: has at least one line in future cutscenes), in which case they'll manage to retreat to safety.

In Fire Emblem, where death is permanent, most allies not under the players control will simply be injured and leave the fight if they run out of health instead of dying. Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn has a level with Kurth, who is believed at this point to be a civilian with no combat skills. He does, however, have much more health and defense than any of the player's characters. This means he can be used as an effective guard (albeit one that doesn't fight back).

Several Sonic the Hedgehog games feature AI partner characters who can do most of the same things the player can, and can get killed numerous times (often due to wandering into hazards) only to come back a short time later. The classic form of this, made famous by Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles, is an option where you can play as Sonic and have Tails following you invulnerably and with the capacity to be controlled by another player instead of the AI; this makes boss fights a lot easier if you have a friend playing with you, or can position Sonic somewhere safe and pick up the second controller yourself, as you can have Tails attack the boss without worrying about taking damage.
This has been abused in the "Tails Abuse" series of videos, where Tails is shown getting hurt/killed multiple times only to come back for more pain.
Brutally parodied in this Dorkly Bits video.
Used as a plot point in Sonic for Hire unsuccessfully.
Parodied in a later episode where a bunch of Facehuggers attack him and a Chestburster comes from his chest, but Tails doesn't die.

The sequel, Invisible War had several immortal NPCs as well, but it also de-emphasized the issue by segregating the player from them. A lot of conversations with plot-relevant characters took place over video screens and across unbreakable walls. There was also areas where all your weapons are deactivated, thereby preventing you from attacking plot important characters prematurely. However, even if you glitch your way through and have your weapons still active, everybody in the area is still invincible anyway.

This also appeared in Suikoden Tactics: plot-vital characters never have to worry about permadeath; no matter how much punishment they take, they'll simply retreat. Everyone else, however, has a chance of dying on the battlefield — with the only real forewarning you get how their 'defeated' quote changes to a Final Speech. However, not everyone you'd expect to have this immortality actually receives it...

In Guild Wars, the Escort Missions of the original campaigns, despite the ease of resurrection for party members, would automatically be failed if your ward or ally was killed. However, since the Eye of the North included gigantic dungeons that are almost impossible to complete without a few party wipes, allied NPCs would automatically resurrect themselves when there were no monsters in the area, and apparently without any death penalty (game mechanic that temporarily reduced stats for dying).

In Half-Life 2, Alyx isn't exactly invincible, but (unlike you) her health regenerates extremely rapidly, making it unlikely for her to die unless you deliberately sit back and let her get mobbed by multiple enemies. Most named allies in the game are the same way, and the game designers try to engineer situations where this isn't actually shown and pull it off for the most part.
Griggs and Sheckley in Episode Two can, according to commentary, hold their own against the Antlion horde. You, however, will get your face chewed off.

Alien:
The various squadmates in Aliens: Colonial Marines (Keyes, O'Neal, Bella and/or Reid) are completely invincible - and can be attacked by multiple xenomorphs without going down - when they are part of the player's party in normal gameplay.
Action Girl/Mission Control Corporal Tequila briefly joins you in Aliens vs. Predator (2010) for about 1/3 of Level 4 and Level 5 and helps you fight about a dozen or so of Weyland's Combat Androids and the Xenomorphs. She's entirely invincible.

In Halo: Reach, all five of the player's fellow Noble Team teammates are invincible during gameplay (although their shields can be depleted). This can be seen as rather ironic, as all but one of them are killed in cutscenes by the end of the game. There's also a minor Army sergeant in "Exodus" who's invincible because he has plot-related dialogue.

In Oblivion, plot-important NPCs are marked "essential" and can't die. If their health reaches zero, they only "fall unconscious" for a time, after which they get back up as if nothing happened. Due to the nature of the game, this means that you can use your unkillable allies to grind your stats to ludicrous levels. Occasionally, a plot-important character will follow you around for the duration of their quest and can effectively be used as an invincible escort as a result. note The "Followers" page on the Oblivion wiki notes who is plot-important ("essential"), and even provides basic instructions on how to load up your followers with improved gear, so that you can have the Emperor at your back with incredible glowing equipment.

Zigzagged throughout Who Framed Roger Rabbit. He's a Toon and thus able to take a lot of punishment, whether it's Eddie attacking him or being run over by cars or snakes. But if he's caught by the Toon Patrol, Stupid can use his bat on him, and he can also be picked up by birds in the overworld and carried away; either scenario costs Eddie a life.

Ace Combat series:
In Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War, a superweapon is capable of destroying any plane below 5,000 feet in one hit... except your wingmen, who can be cruising at 2,000 without a care in the world. Almost makes one wonder if they know something you don't.
In Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation, you can shoot down allies with your guns. Even named ones, except Shamrock, who mutters something about his plane, and fly back to base.
This gets averted in the mission Transfer Orders in Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown. It is entirely possible for Trigger to shoot down Colonel McKinsey’s plane, and be rewarded a thousand points for it. Doing so ends in the mission failing however, so Trigger has to keep him alive in order to complete the mission.

In Star Wars: Republic Commando, your NPC allies weren't any more immortal than you. Interestingly subverted though, in that it wasn't an instant game over if you the player died, only when all 4 members were dead. Just as you could revive them if they dropped, the NPC's could revive you if they survived the firefight, or if you gave the order to break cover and revive you on the spot. Of course, none of the squad is quite dead at that point, generally groaning piteously and trying to stand; when it happens to you, you can look around and order a squadmate over. Enemies just ignored you, and you couldn't shoot.

In Clive Barker's Jericho, the game ends if every member of the Jericho Squad dies.

Resident Evil: Revelations and Resident Evil 6 both play this trope straight (provided you're on single player), seemingly in response to complaints about Sheva Alomar being responsible for 95% of the deaths and losses, and 100% of the frustration in her game. The trade-off, of course, is your partner either cannot use guns or cannot use them with much effectiveness.

Knights of the Old Republic series: No members of your party (even the PC) actually "die" in combat (even after being blown up by grenades and lit on fire), instead merely collapsing in pain. They can be brought back into the battle with the correct healing technique, and they will struggle back to their feet with 1HP once all combat ends, but if all of your party members are knocked out it's game over. One party member even had a chance to get up right after getting "killed" as his special ability.
This was one of the few games where even your character could do this — you only got a game over if your whole party was killed. Of course for many boss fights, the game usually found some way to immobilize your teammates (usually by sith who put your friends in stasis, why only your two friends, and not all three is unexplained). Judging by the later lightsaber sound effects during the game over black out screen, it's implied that if you lose, whoever you were fighting will go on to kill your immobilized teammates.
You can use your party members to clear mines...
The same goes for Neverwinter Nights 2 and its first expansion (it is, however, not true for the second expansion, where dead party members would stay dead unless resurrected.)

In Valkyria Chronicles, losing Welkin (and sometimes Alicia) is a game over, and regular recruitable characters are subject to Permadeath if they're captured by the enemy or left for dead on the field, but then you have the plot-critical playable characters (Rosie, Largo, Zaka, and Alicia when her death isn't an instant-lose condition), who will merely "retreat" under the same conditions that an ordinary recruit would die.

Warhammer: Dark Omen and Shadow of the Horned Rat, had certain warriors with important dialogue join your warband to help advance the plot. Not only could they not be killed permanently, they also costed no money! which almost guaranteed that you stick them in a fight. They aren't immune to damage but even if they got slaughtered in a battle, they'd be up in perfect shape for any upcoming battle so long as you win - they didn't even spend any time on the injured roster. So feel free to charge that lone Elf ranger into a ravening horde of Black Orcs or a Skaven Warpfire Thrower team.

Skyrim:
Skyrim continues the tradition with two different variants: Essential NPCs can be brought down to a point where they ought to die, but will simply become invulnerable and stand back up a few seconds later. Protected NPCs (such as the player's spouse or followers) go into "submission mode" when their health gets low enough, and whatever enemy was attacking them will stop and move on to attack the player. The player, however, can still kill protected NPCs in submission mode, meaning that the number one cause of death for your followers will probably be your own Friendly Fire.
The Dragonborn DLC adds the 'companion insight' effect, which means that attacks, shouts, and destruction spells no longer damage your followers while in combat. Exceptions exist but it does make it a lot harder to kill them accidentally.
This can be a particularly jarring example since they take a very broad definition of "essential NPC." Due to the sandbox nature of optional side quests and the civil war threatening to tear the region apart it's entirely possible, if not likely, that your character will encounter minor enemy officers that they would clearly never want to work with in the future based on their narrative up to that point and who are more than willingly to fight you to the death but that are completely invincible due to this quest giver plot armor. For fans coming from Morrowind this can be quite an immersion killer.

Fallout: New Vegas has this in full effect for all of your companions, unless you play in Hardcore mode. There are a few exceptions though. In particular, the quest Birds of a Feather can result in the death of Cass if you comply with the Van Graffs' orders.
Similarly, for the Beyond the Beef sidequest, you can offer one of your human companions as a meal to the White Glove Society.
Yes Man is also essential. If you kill him, his personality will just download into another Securitron.
One companion that is unkillable regardless of game settings is the Lonesome Road version of ED-E, since you can't complete the storyline without him.
Hardcore also applies to the Dead Money companions, although they are story-essential. To avoid an unwinnable situation, their explosive collars are linked to the Courier's, so their death results in his/hers.
Roxie the cyberdog in Old World Blues can die even in Casual mode, but she can be recreated once a day.

Fable III actually allows you to turn ally immortality on and off yourself by way of a D-pad option that comes up when you draw your weapon. You can't hurt friendly NPC's unless you turn off the "safety".

Pretty much every First Person Shooter made by Raven Software uses this for important NPC allies. Star Trek: Elite Force, Soldier of Fortune 2, Quake IV, etc (although the Rhino Squad marines in Quake 4 CAN die on the hardest difficulty setting, reverting several levels of the game into escort missions.)
In SoF 2, friendly soldiers can't be killed by enemies, they CAN be killed by friendly fire, and if that happens, you spontaneously die as well.

While defending the cabin with Luis in Resident Evil 4, Luis is impervious to all Ganado attack. He'll also toss you ammo and health to keep you in the game too. If you shoot him enough times, though, he won't take too kindly to that and demonstrate that you don't have his invulnerability.
On your first playthrough of the game you will spend much time and effort babysitting Ashley to prevent her from being hacked to death by mutants or being grabbed and carted off by mad cultists. However, an unlockable costume dresses her in a full suit of plate mail. This makes her completely immune to damage and also makes her so heavy that enemies cannot pick her up to abduct her.
Resident Evil: Revelations and Resident Evil 6 both play this trope straight (provided you're on single player), seemingly in response to complaints about Sheva Alomar being responsible for 95% of the deaths and losses, and 100% of the frustration in her game. The trade-off, of course, is your partner either cannot use guns or cannot use them with much effectiveness.
Downplayed in Resident Evil: Revelations 2 in that the partner characters (Moira Burton and Natalia Korda) are not completely invulnerable to damage. Instead, they have Regenerating Health that slowly gains back by not taking any damage in a few seconds, unlike the main characters Claire Redfield and Barry Burton who take damage as usual. Very useful in Moira's case since she has a very powerful ground finishing move with her crowbar.

In the X-Universe, plot important ships cannot be killed or boarded. The Argon One in X3: Reunion, for example, cannot be brought lower than 93% health with friendly fire. A Good Bad Bug in early versions of X3: Terran Conflict allowed the player to acquire a freighter that never had its invulnerability flag removed after the pilot ejects, giving them a completely indestructible and completely unarmed ship; better practice your ramming skills.

Despite following you around for a good portion of Alone in the Dark, Sarah Flores in the 2008 Alone in the Dark'' is unkillable, and won't even be targeted by monsters. She vanish into nothingness if you die and respawn, but she'll either teleport at the destination or just be ignored until the next gameplay segment. It's mostly one of the game's many glitches.

Named NPC allies in Freelancer are generally immortal in missions where they appear. They'll take damage down to roughly about 10%, at which point the game no longer counts damage against them. It is good to keep them in one piece, to keep their weapons from being blown off, so they can contribute to the battle.

First seen in Rainbow Six: Vegas and Star Wars: Republic Commando. Unreal Engine games really seem to love recycling this particular bit of code.
In Vegas, it is possible for teammates to die instantly if they are caught in the enemies' "Instant Death" Radius. Very easy to notice this in terrorist hunts in Vegas 2 by telling your team to stack up at a door and then triggering the enemy spawn. As soon as they come through the door with guns blazing, Game Over.

Pets and guests in the Flash-based RPG AdventureQuest can't be targeted by enemy attacks. As a result, any ally that can heal your character is extremely helpful.
Hand Waved in the DragonFable Design Notes, which say that NPCs taste funny. Though DF does have occasional boss monsters that will attack your allies, they're few and far between.

Fallout and Fallout 2 totally averted this, though. If you are so inclined, you can kill every single NPC and still win (killing the residents of Arroyo is possible, but ends the game). The sole exception in Fallout 1 is, of course, the Vault 13 Overseer, until it's... his time.

Fallout 3. After you find your Dad, he sets off to Rivet City, which is about half a map away. On foot. If you decide to take a walk with him, you get to watch him take the highway into D.C., right through everything from raiders carrying missile launchers to super mutant masters with miniguns, wearing nothing but his jumpsuit — and "become unconscious" over and over again... just to get up half a minute later and continue on his merry way. And to make the trope even more fitting, all this so later the plot can kill him anyway.
In fact, any plot-sensitive NPC has this ability. Try firing the sniper rifle point blank into the back of Elder Lyons' head. He dies instantly and stays dead for a few seconds, then gets up, unfazed. Unload an automatic rifle clip into Dr. Li's face some time for cheap giggles; not only does it only take off about a bar of her health, she's so unfazed that she doesn't even go hostile.
In addition to Dr. Li, important characters include all children, Jonas while you are 10 or 16 years old — further following the example of being invincible until he needs to die, and one Robobrain in Vault 112 — which has exactly two lines of dialogue.
That Robobrain is vital to the main plot, since without it you wouldn't get into the Tranquility Lane simulation to rescue your dad.
And there must be at least one doctor, one repairman and one trader living in the Wastes so the player isn't left stranded. There just so happen to be one of each character with invincibility.
The PC version makes it rather easy to grant and take away this immortality to/from NPCs and items as well by use of console commands.

In Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II, you allies will get up a few minutes after losing all their health. If you lose all your health, however, it's an instant game over. The in-game justification for this is glossed over very quickly, but basically boils down to your partners simply being knocked out, and Sora losing his heart any time he dies. Because the Heartless/Nobodies are very vulnerable to the Keyblade, they don't take any chances.

The Legend of Zelda
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past included a few escort quests, most notably one near the beginning of the game where you must take Princess Zelda through a variety of dangerous environments to the Sanctuary. Fortunately, she's invincible, with monsters passing right through her — her only apparent sign of corporeal existence is her assistance with pushing a bookcase.
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening has a couple of characters who follow you for a while, including love interest Marin. Not only do all attacks pass through her, she can somehow keep up with your Pegasus Boots, make jumps you need the Roc's Feather for, and (if you do a little Sequence Breaking) walk on water when you're swimming.
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: In the final battle of the game, other than a scripted moment where she is KO'ed, Zelda cannot be harmed during the battle (though she does wince in pain); you can't kill her, even if you repeatedly slash her with the Master Sword.
The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks: Zelda gains the ability to control phantoms, which are giant armored knights. She can't be killed, but some attacks will stun her, she'll panic from the sight of rats, and the final boss can take control of her and make her attack you.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: The four allies who help you board the Divine Beasts cannot be harmed by either you or the Divine Beasts.

Halo:
Halo 2 granted Sergeant Johnson immortality. You could literally keep chucking grenades at him and he would just stare at you, and if you did it for long enough he'd eventually ask what you were doing.
At one point in the first level, Sergeant, as he is affectionately known, tells Master Chief "That, or he can hide behind me." A surprisingly viable tactic!
This is lampshaded as a Retcon later on, when it's revealed that Johnson was a first-generation Spartan.
Miranda Keyes also shares Johnson's complete invulnerability, so have fun using her as a stress ball whenever she's around on a mission.
Same goes for Johnson's Covenant counterpart Rtas "Half-Jaw" 'Vadumee. You can keep striking him in the back, which would be an instant-kill for anything else, and although his shield can be seen dissipating he stays alive.
In Halo 3 plot-important allies can be killed, but they'll stand back up in about ten seconds like nothing happened. You can even loot their weapons, including an infinite-ammo SPARTAN laser at one point. There's even a glitch that allows you to do this with a certain character after he's been Killed Off for Real.
In the original trilogy, many minor recurring NPCs, such as Sgt. Stacker, are killable, but they'll show up again later like nothing ever happened. This even applied to Johnson back in the original Halo: Combat Evolved.
343 Guilty Spark is also invincible, despite how much the player may want to turn him to scrap (which is even lampshaded in the novelization Halo: The Flood). It carries over to when he turns hostile in Halo: Combat Evolved, but finally disappears during his boss fight in Halo 3.
In Halo: Reach, all five of the player's fellow Noble Team teammates are invincible during gameplay (although their shields can be depleted). This can be seen as rather ironic, as all but one of them are killed in cutscenes by the end of the game. There's also a minor Army sergeant in "Exodus" who's invincible because he has plot-related dialogue.
In Halo 4's Spartan Ops, you're occasionally teamed up with AI-controlled Spartans who sometimes happen to be invincible.
In Halo 5: Guardians, your computer-controlled teammates can die if they're not revived in time, but they'll still respawn after each fight.

In Mass Effect, all the characters are subject to this, except for Commander Shepard (the player character, whose death results in Game Over). This sometimes becomes rather silly, as NPC's cannot be directly shot, (Except with the spray-bullet shotgun) and never react to weapons fire in any way. Even detonating a grenade an inch in front of your direct superiour merits not a flicker of an eyebrow.

In Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War, a superweapon is capable of destroying any plane below 5,000 feet in one hit... except your wingmen, who can be cruising at 2,000 without a care in the world. Almost makes one wonder if they know something you don't.

343 Guilty Spark is also invincible, despite how much the player may want to turn him to scrap (which is even lampshaded in the novelization Halo: The Flood). It carries over to when he turns hostile in Halo: Combat Evolved, but finally disappears during his boss fight in Halo 3.

The Elder Scrolls uses this trope to varying degrees across the series. To note:
Played straight in Arena and Daggerfall, the allies important to the storyline are all sprites whose interaction is limited to talking to them — they can't die, but they also aren't of any help.
In Morrowind all NPCs, up to and including physical gods, can be killed if you're strong enough. You do get a warning if a killed NPC was critical to the main plot, but that's it.
In Oblivion, plot-important NPCs are marked "essential" and can't die. If their health reaches zero, they only "fall unconscious" for a time, after which they get back up as if nothing happened. Due to the nature of the game, this means that you can use your unkillable allies to grind your stats to ludicrous levels. Occasionally, a plot-important character will follow you around for the duration of their quest and can effectively be used as an invincible escort as a result. note The "Followers" page on the Oblivion wiki notes who is plot-important ("essential"), and even provides basic instructions on how to load up your followers with improved gear, so that you can have the Emperor at your back with incredible glowing equipment.
Skyrim:
Skyrim continues the tradition with two different variants: Essential NPCs can be brought down to a point where they ought to die, but will simply become invulnerable and stand back up a few seconds later. Protected NPCs (such as the player's spouse or followers) go into "submission mode" when their health gets low enough, and whatever enemy was attacking them will stop and move on to attack the player. The player, however, can still kill protected NPCs in submission mode, meaning that the number one cause of death for your followers will probably be your own Friendly Fire.
The Dragonborn DLC adds the 'companion insight' effect, which means that attacks, shouts, and destruction spells no longer damage your followers while in combat. Exceptions exist but it does make it a lot harder to kill them accidentally.
This can be a particularly jarring example since they take a very broad definition of "essential NPC." Due to the sandbox nature of optional side quests and the civil war threatening to tear the region apart it's entirely possible, if not likely, that your character will encounter minor enemy officers that they would clearly never want to work with in the future based on their narrative up to that point and who are more than willingly to fight you to the death but that are completely invincible due to this quest giver plot armor. For fans coming from Morrowind this can be quite an immersion killer.

Ciel in the Mega Man Zero series, whenever she appears in an Escort Mission. When she gets hit, she still reacts as if taking damage, but she never dies no matter how many times she gets hit. Letting her get hit only reduces your score for that mission.

Boogie Wings takes this trope to the extreme; on two-player mode, since your attacks can't hurt your partner, you can use your plane's skyhook to grab them (if they're in a tank or robot) before throwing them into mooks. These attacks can only hurt enemies, and doesn't affect your partner in any way.

Some guest characters in Final Fantasy Tactics A2 simply can't be killed, just reduced to 1 hitpoint. They usually stop attacking in this case unless you heal them, but they can still be attacked by enemies.
Enemies will actually prioritize guest characters that are still able to fight but can't be reduced below 1 HP, so an entirely valid tactic is to use a potion or healing spell on those characters to restore the bare minimum HP, and then letting the enemy attack them. It only works if they are within the enemy's attack range, and when they are reduced to 1 HP, the AI starts ignoring them again, making for a delicate balancing act.

The NPC replacement in Deep Rock Galactic for a second player, Bosco, packs as much firepower as a dwarf (and with the right upgrades, twice the mining power), with the added benefits of full 3D flight and total invincibility.

In Final Fantasy Adventure, your character has various temporary allies who provide backup or just follow him around. They're all immune to damage. The Video Game Remake, Sword of Mana, changed this — and fortunately thought to provide some AI control in case you don't want your ally Leeroy Jenkinsing himself to death all the time. However, this didn't remove the silly factor so much as move it: when an ally dies, he or she follows you around as a ghost, and is instantly revived if you touch a health-refill statue.

Age of Mythology plays this game. Story PCs will be able to rise again if allies are around and enemies are not. One character notably has to block Arkantos's team from getting to him to make a Heroic Sacrifice.
Age of Empires III has its heroes operate similarly but they at least lampshade it by by complaining about their pain in a borderline plea for euthanasia ("Every moment I live is agony.")

When you summon your allies in Drakengard, they cannot die. The life bar becomes a timer indicating how long they have to run around and kill crap, but they technically cannot die. If they're struck, it reduces the amount of time they're summoned.
In the sequel, the hero and his allies all have separate health meters. Now, if your onscreen character dies, you get booted straight to the game over screen.

Perfect Dark has a small, but surprisingly satisfying exploit in the HQ/hub/training level. The hanger has a box that you can grab. Naturally, you can take this anywhere, including the firing range where the tests for all the weapons take place. This room is separated from a smaller area where scientists are watching you testing the weapons. Usually the door separating you from them can't be opened during a test and you obviously can't take weapons out with you. However, you can position the aforementioned box in front of where the door slides allows you to shoot any of the weapons at the scientists outside. Aside from blood stains and arrows sticking out of their body (and the lights blown out if you used explosives) they show absolutely no sign that they were ever hurt.
However, one of them will occasionally say "Just... leave me alone, would you?"

The Call of Duty games have this in that characters important to the plot will never die in battle, no matter how often they are hit, but generic allies will fall and be replaced by off-screen reinforcements. If an essential character takes an excessive amount of damage in a short amount of time, they will sometimes fall over and look as if they have died, before getting back up again a few moments later.
You can't shoot allied NPCs though, that'll result in a friendly fire game over.
If the objective calls to protect said important NPC, then you better, they'll go down like the rest of the generic NPCs.
Immortal teammates can be a lifesaver in some situations, especially on harder difficulties. You simply find a place to hide while your ally stands out in the open and guns down the enemies for you. When they get hit by enemy fire they simply fall over, then get back up and resume fighting.

In Crysis: Warhead, there are a couple sections where you have a friendly team of U.S. Nanosuit Soldiers escorting you through an area. Although they can be knocked down if they take enough damage, they'll get back up again after a couple dozen seconds no worse for wear. Possibility due to a glitch, there's a very specific circumstance where they can die if they get grabbed and thrown by the giant alien robot boss. They all reappear next to you good as new once you transition to the next map, though.

All important allied characters in the first game are unkillable. A lot of the generic UNATCO troopers in the early levels are immortal as well, though only in areas without enemy presence. However, the game also had a few memorable exceptions: among all the invincible UNATCO soldiers after the first mission is a single vulnerable one, and killing him gets you some extra dialogue with Manderley. Much more importantly, you can kill Anna during the confrontation with Lebedev.
The sequel, Invisible War had several immortal NPCs as well, but it also de-emphasized the issue by segregating the player from them. A lot of conversations with plot-relevant characters took place over video screens and across unbreakable walls. There was also areas where all your weapons are deactivated, thereby preventing you from attacking plot important characters prematurely. However, even if you glitch your way through and have your weapons still active, everybody in the area is still invincible anyway.

A feature of the original Fable was that you could kill pretty much any NPC or quest-giver. Of course, because the game has to find a way to carry on regardless, no-one is too bothered if you've beheaded your five previous employers.
Fable II has consequences for murder, including the town economy slumping, housing prices falling, and everyone in town becoming afraid of you. Then you fart a couple of times and they think you're hilarious again. If they don't run away before you finish the fart.
Fable III actually allows you to turn ally immortality on and off yourself by way of a D-pad option that comes up when you draw your weapon. You can't hurt friendly NPC's unless you turn off the "safety".

In Gothic, two people in the Old Camp can escort you to the New Camp and the Swamp respectively. While the paths are full of beasts that make lone travel deadly, they are tough enough to kill everything... and give you the experience points.

Suikoden:
Suikoden averts this in a few cases, leading to some Hilarious in Hindsight deaths, such as If you get everyone's favorite Jerkass Luc killed well before the role he plays as Big Bad of Suikoden III .
In Suikoden V, a character who is killed during one of the real-time war battles is Killed Off for Real and lost, making it impossible to gain 100% Completion... except if the character is an important storyline character (read: has at least one line in future cutscenes), in which case they'll manage to retreat to safety.
This also appeared in Suikoden Tactics: plot-vital characters never have to worry about permadeath; no matter how much punishment they take, they'll simply retreat. Everyone else, however, has a chance of dying on the battlefield — with the only real forewarning you get how their 'defeated' quote changes to a Final Speech. However, not everyone you'd expect to have this immortality actually receives it...

In X-Wing Alliance there are some missions in which certain AI-controlled craft will never go below 1% hull integrity. In the last mission, which puts the player in control of the Millennium Falcon during the attack on the second Death Star, there is an X-Wing escorting you that is exempt from destruction in this manner, presumably because it is piloted by an important SW character. (Likely to be Wedge Antilles.)

Halo 2 granted Sergeant Johnson immortality. You could literally keep chucking grenades at him and he would just stare at you, and if you did it for long enough he'd eventually ask what you were doing.
At one point in the first level, Sergeant, as he is affectionately known, tells Master Chief "That, or he can hide behind me." A surprisingly viable tactic!
This is lampshaded as a Retcon later on, when it's revealed that Johnson was a first-generation Spartan.

You can even loot their weapons, including an infinite-ammo SPARTAN laser at one point. There's even a glitch that allows you to do this with a certain character after he's been Killed Off for Real.

In Halo 4's Spartan Ops, you're occasionally teamed up with AI-controlled Spartans who sometimes happen to be invincible.

In Deadfall Adventures, your allies seem to be unkillable, even a direct hit from a grenade will just knock them down for a few seconds. This is balanced out by the fact that they tend to hang back and camp the entrance instead of charging into the middle of a firefight.

Diablo III has Leah, Decard Cain, Tyrael, and Adria occasionally join in the fight against evil directly, accompanying the human players and their NPC companions on their quest and taking the fight directly to the enemy. To avoid being a slow-paced Escort Mission, this trope is applied. This also happens when the player first meets each of the Companions throughout the story; the HUD distinguishes invulnerable characters by simply not giving them a health bar display.

In Blazing Angels, your allies are invulnerable to your attacks. However, at the end of certain missions, you can see that they have a smoke trail behind your plane, indicating that while being hit with eight air to ground rockets and dozens of thirty millimeter bullets (which kills most enemies in the game in less than a second) isn't enough to damage them visibly, a few machinegun rounds fired off by the enemy is enough to set them on fire.

In Mickey Mousecapade, the player controls Mickey and Minnie simultaneously, and Minnie never takes damage from anything that isn't a Bottomless Pit. In some situations, separating the duo and attacking with Minnie makes dying next to impossible.

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks: Zelda gains the ability to control phantoms, which are giant armored knights. She can't be killed, but some attacks will stun her, she'll panic from the sight of rats, and the final boss can take control of her and make her attack you.

Sacred features several unkillable escorts, most notably Wilbur (who joins you fairly early in the first chapter). If one of these NPCs gets 'killed', they just lie on the ground with stars spinning over their heads for about a minute, then get up with about 25% of their hit points restored. It's important to note that only NPCs relevant to the main plot have Plot Armor — anyone you have to watch on an Escort Mission can die, and likely will.

In Strife, shopkeepers and plot-essential characters, the Front's leader Macil and the Oracle, can't be killed before you're supposed to be able to kill them, even though you can shoot everyone around them. However, a number of other NPCs that you need to progress can be killed, often dropping the item you require or having a switch that opens the path they were meant to.

The whole point of Guardian's Crusade is to return a baby monster to its home in God's Tower. Although the aptly-named Baby can die in battle, if you end up winning the battle, Baby will be automatically revived at the end of it. Of course, he'll hate you for letting him die...

In pretty much every Ultima game, while your allies could get killed as easy as anything, a quick trip to Lord British (or someone else filling the role) is all that's needed to get them back on their feet. The main character gets the same benefit — even saving the effort of hauling back the corpses. Death Is a Slap on the Wrist, indeed.

In Fate, the player character is accompanied by a pet who assists in fighting monsters and provide extra inventory space. If its HP runs out, it will start running around in panic instead of getting killed. It won't help in further fighting, but can still carry items. Sending it to town to "sell off inventory" will allow it to fully recover its health when it comes back.

Seen in Gears of War, and featured via legacy code in the vast majority of Unreal Engine 3 games based off the Gears of War game code (i.e. Turok, Blacksite: Area 51, Haze, etc). If one of your NPC squadmates is severely injured in a firefight, instead of dying, they'll simply drop to their knees in pain. They get back up again good as new once all nearby enemies are dead, or if you simply walk up to them and give them a pat on the back.
First seen in Rainbow Six: Vegas and Star Wars: Republic Commando. Unreal Engine games really seem to love recycling this particular bit of code.
In Vegas, it is possible for teammates to die instantly if they are caught in the enemies' "Instant Death" Radius. Very easy to notice this in terrorist hunts in Vegas 2 by telling your team to stack up at a door and then triggering the enemy spawn. As soon as they come through the door with guns blazing, Game Over.

In Bayonetta 2, Rosa, Balder, and Rodin are all invulnerable when they're accompanying you, and the latter can one-shot every enemy that he touches. Loki isn't, but fights on lower difficulties will likely end before his health becomes an issue anyway.

Allied characters in Horizon Zero Dawn, indicated by a symbol over their heads, will fall down once they take too much damage, and eventually get up again. However, friendly characters that are not explicitly allied, like independent travellers and the patrolling Carja guards in the Sundom, are not invincible, and you will occasionally find a series of scattered bodies where a party of such encountered machines or bandits and lost.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, has several areas where you fight alongside Sully or Elena, and while you die quite easily — often from a single hit — they can pointedly ignore direct hits from grenade-launchers. Too bad they almost never hit the enemy...

Kingdom Hearts:
In Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II, you allies will get up a few minutes after losing all their health. If you lose all your health, however, it's an instant game over. The in-game justification for this is glossed over very quickly, but basically boils down to your partners simply being knocked out, and Sora losing his heart any time he dies. Because the Heartless/Nobodies are very vulnerable to the Keyblade, they don't take any chances.
The occasional NPCs such as Cloud and Leon that help you fight Heartless during events. While they can be hit, they seem to be invulnerable, and will pretty much kill all the enemies for you.
In Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance], your own Dream Eaters can die off for good by running out of HP and not receiving assistance, the temporary ones you can call to your side using friend portals are completely indestructible and simply get knocked around by attacks.
For a laugh, in the first game's fight against Maleficent's dragon form, you can simply climb the branches to get as high up as you can and let Donald and Goofy do the whole fight for you (useful, as she can be quite hard unless you're diligent about leveling up).

Super Smash Bros. Brawl subverts this trope during the Subspace Emissary in co-op. Player 2 can fall off the stage and be put back on it, but if an enemy attacks the player and they get pushed too far off screen, it counts as a KO. And when you get caught in a non-escapable battle, falling off the stage still counts as a KO for player 2.
