Chances are throughout life someone you know is going to die in your lifetime, but some for whatever reason can't accept this new status quo and seek to defy the laws of nature and resurrect someone. The Resurrection Seeker can come in two varieties: The first is as a character driven by their mission to restore someone to life or undo their death. The beneficiary may be their One True Love, a dead little sister, a daughter or son, or true friend. They may have spent years, decades, or even longer trying to bring back that one person who's precious to them. Their methods may include Time Travel, Mad Science, or Forbidden Magic. The strength of their conviction may make them a Determinator or lead them to cross the Moral Event Horizon, especially if the author believes in Immortality Immorality. For romance especially, this overlaps with the Necromantic. The second type is one in which someone seeks to resurrect an important individual in order to use the resurrectee to aid in the resurrector's own agenda. This variation is more likely to be done by a villain as part of an Evil Plan (in which case it overlaps with Breaking Out the Boss). This is Older Than Dirt; see Egyptian Mythology and The Epic of Gilgamesh examples below. Note that this is a motivation/plot trope, and does not apply to simply anyone who brings someone back from the dead or has the ability to do so; the drive to bring someone back must be a defining aspect of their character. Supertrope to Resurrect the Villain and Rescued from the Underworld (for when it involves traveling to another world). Compare Immortality Seeker; contrast Death Seeker. Examples |

Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis: Elrik is this in his Modus Operandi he tries to resurrect his wife and ends up chaining the soul of his wife to his daughter's body. It takes a talk of his daughter, after being stopped by Alphonse, to put him back on track and therefore becoming the Atoner. If his daughter dies in the course of the game he tries to create artificial life in the form of golems, with the implications it might be as a vessel for his daughter. | |

Shadow Hearts series features the Émigré Manuscript, an ancient document created by the Formors of Irish Mythology that contains instructions to bring the dead back to the living world. The tome was sought after by several character through the entire trilogy and invariably used to bring back their loved one. Save for one case, all the attempts failed because the instructions were never meant to resurrect the dead the way they were because the Formors could never unravel the secret of the soul and thus they employed it to raise the dead and use them as mindless slave labor. Koudelka: Patrick Heyworth acquired the document and planned to use it to revive his wife Elaine who died during a robbery while he was traveling abroad using the sacrifice of animals and people as the catalyst. It failed because Patrick couldn't call Elaine's soul back into her body and thus ended up creating a soulless, twisted demon instead. Shadow Hearts: Jack tried to revive his mother who died supposedly from a curse using the sacrifice of orphans as the catalyst. It failed and the subsequent abomination that Yuri and co. fought possessed more than a passing resemblance to Elaine's monstrous insect form from Koudelka Shadow Hearts: Covenant: Yuri attempted to bring his lover Alice back after she died at the end of the first game. It failed this time because the catalyst used to created the vessel crumbled before it could finish the process. Alice's soul was brought back but without a body to host her spirit, the resurrection ritual was cut short. Shadow Hearts: From The New World: Graham Garland utilized the manuscript to resurrect his children Grace and Johnny after they died in a car accident. For the first time in the franchise it actually worked solely due to the fact that Grace's sacrificed her opportunity once she saw that johnny wouldn't make it. In the aftermath, Johnny became ritual's only success but at the price of her sister becoming hollow shell of evil intent and his father dying in the process. |

The backstory of the Resurrection Stone, the second of the titular deathly hallows in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, is of an arrogant wizard who sought to humiliate Death by bringing the dead back to life. When Death gives him a stone that can do just that, he uses it to resurrect his dead fiancee. It doesn't end well, and the stone is passed from family to family until it finds itself in Harry's hands. | |

He is willing to sacrifice anything—morals, dignity, and even other people, for the sake of his work. It is revealed that he goes between being a Resurrection Seeker for his wife and son Debordes (which he tried to resurrect as a proper being but botched and brought another soulless undead back, in the ending it shows that Orias manages to recover a part of Debordes soul on her own) and the fact of being an Immortality Seeker by the end of the game. Further expanded when you find him in the Bonus Dungeon which bring the following gem: | |

Similar to the Dragon Age example, the Windhelm Butcher in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is the museum curator, Calixto Corrium, seeking to revive his dead sister. Unlike the Dragon Age example, it's a bit less clear how well this would have worked, though the results would almost certainly not have been pretty. | |

Fire Emblem: Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade: The backstory of Renault (or Renaud, for PAL regions), in the short time you have him, can be pieced together to reveal that he had served Nergal for a time in a desperate bid to bring a dear friend of his back from the dead. However, Nergal reneged on this arrangement by providing him with a soulless Morph from his friend's corpse. After this, Renault turned to the cloth to find forgiveness for what he had done. Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones: Orson betrays Renais in order to resurrect his wife. She most definitely Came Back Wrong, but Orson is a bit too far around the bend to notice. This was the end-plot for Fire Emblem: Awakening. The entire plot revolved around Validar working to revive the Fell Dragon, Grima, who would bring about the destruction of mankind, and so all of Validar's gambits led up to it. When the heroes foil his final plan, kill him at last, and seemingly prevent the ritual from happening, this simply prompts the Grima from the Bad Future, who followed Lucina and her comrades to keep the future on course, to step in at last and finish the resurrection himself. Fire Emblem: Three Houses: In the Silver Snow and Verdant Wind routes, it's eventually revealed this is Lady Rhea's end goal. She seeks to bring back her mother Sothis back to life, both to finally put her own grieving heart at ease, and to have Sothis assume Fódlan's leadership like she once did in the distant past. For this purpose, she not only had created multiple failed vessels (one of which was Byleth's mother), but is also why she recruits a grown up Byleth later and tests during the Academy Arc of all four routes if they truly are a successful vessel for Sothis to occupy. |

Miraculous Ladybug: In the episode "The Pharaoh", the titular villain seeks to complete a ritual to resurrect his wife (even though he's not the original pharaoh, but a Brainwashed and Crazy Jalil Kubdel). The show's Big Bad, Hawk Moth, is a downplayed version of this; his wife is not yet dead, but her reckless use of the Peacock Miraculous left her in a coma that she only falls deeper into with time, and Gabriel wants the Ladybug and Cat Miraculouses to reverse her condition. |

The Outer Limits (1995): In "Final Appeal", Chief Justice Haden Wainwright was inconsolable after his beloved wife Julia died of cancer in 2066. A friend told him about the scientific underground, which possessed advanced pieces of technology in contravention of the anti-technology codes introduced after the War of 2059. They were able to use the Scanning Molecular Reorganizer (SMR) module developed by Doctors James Houghton and Charles McCamber (as seen in "New Lease") to revive Julia for several seconds. She was terrified and bewildered during her few brief moments of consciousness. The expression on her face further traumatized Chief Justice Wainwright, who said that he would never forgive himself for putting her through that. | |

Fullmetal Alchemist: Bringing someone back from the dead is considered alchemy taboo, as any attempts often end in the beneficiary Coming Back Wrong and body part loss from whoever attempts it, such as the Elric brothers in their backstory trying to resurrect their mom and having her come back as a shriveling zombie and losing An Arm and a Leg (and Al's entire body) for their efforts. Attempting it in-series is shorthand for the character being (1) extremely talented, and (2) insanely devoted to whoever they attempt to resurrect. As it turns out, the alchemists who've done this are the only ones who can open the Gate for Father's plan, as they're the only ones to have seen "The Truth." In the first anime, Hohenheim tried to bring his son back to life and made Envy, Dante is supposed to have committed human transmutation more than one time, and Scar's brother tried to bring back his dead girlfriend, creating Lust. In both anime and manga, Izumi Curtis tried to return her stillborn baby to life, causing several of her internal organs to be taken. |

Harry Potter: In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, two of Voldemort's old followers put together a plan to revive the Dark Lord fully, albeit for different motives. One of them (Wormtail) was a turncoat who had been hiding for years and simply ran out of options after being discovered by the people he had betrayed, while the other (Barty Crouch Jr.) was a true believer in Voldemort's cause. The backstory of the Resurrection Stone, the second of the titular deathly hallows in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, is of an arrogant wizard who sought to humiliate Death by bringing the dead back to life. When Death gives him a stone that can do just that, he uses it to resurrect his dead fiancee. It doesn't end well, and the stone is passed from family to family until it finds itself in Harry's hands. |

Supernatural: Zig-Zagged. Most times Sam and/or Dean die note they tend to die a lot the other will move heaven & earth to try to save him; but at least a couple of times this doesn't happen: at the end of season 5 Sam dies and makes Dean promise not to come looking for him; at the end of season 7 Dean dies and Sam doesn't try to get him back; this makes Dean pissed in season 8 when he does come back and discovers that Sam didn't try to resurrect him. A straighter example would be Samuel Campbell in season 6 wishing to bring his daughter (And also the Winchester's mother) Mary back to life. |

Bandon spends most of Season 2 of The Shannara Chronicles trying to resurrect the Warlock Lord, partly as revenge against the entire magic-hating Four Lands but also so that the Warlock Lord, in turn, can resurrect Bandon's dead Love Interest Catania. He succeeds on both counts, but of course Evil Is Not a Toy and the Warlock Lord brings back a brainwashed parody of the real Catania to prove a point to Bandon, and Bandon ends up having to kill her all over again. | |

One character (the Serqeti trade emirate) from Quentyn Quinn, Space Ranger is driven by a desire to resurrect his dead wife from a bodyscan and brain readout created during the RIAA Wars, even though doing so would involve committing a neurocrime equal to first-degree murder. He fails, ending up with a version each for the body and brain images, neither of whom is quite the same person and both of whom hate him for what he tried to do. | |

In The Twilight Zone (1959) episode "Mr. Garrity and the Graves", the title character offers to resurrect all the people buried in an Old West town's Boot Hill. But the townsfolk don't want them back for various reasons and are willing to pay Garrity to NOT resurrect them. Garrity is a con artist who used trickery to convince the townsfolk he could resurrect people. Double spoiler- it turns out he really can. | |

Yukari, being the most attached to him, wants to use the power to go back with Mitsuru supporting her, but the rest of the party disagrees, causing a brief civil war. Persona 4 and Persona 4: Arena show that Elizabeth, the aforementioned P3 protagonist's Velvet Room attendant, is undertaking a journey of her own to free her charge from his status as the Great Seal and hopefully bring him back to life. |

In the backstory of Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer, Myrkul, The Grim Reaper at the time, decided to test the faith of his most loyal disciple Akachi by arranging the death of his lover, a Faithless Red Wizard. In the Forgotten Realms dying as an atheist means you end up in Myrkul's Wall of the Faithless to be consumed over thousands of years, so Akachi waged war on the heavens to retrieve his lover. He failed and was placed in the wall himself, turning him into the Spirit-eater curse which is placed on the Player Character in the present day. | |

Tsubasa -RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE-: Fai speculates that Fei Wang may have been created from someone else's (presumably Clow Reed's) desire to bring Yuuko back to life. Fai D. Flourite wants to bring his brother back to life, and becomes the main villain's pawn in order to fulfill that wish. The latter attempts to manipulate other people into becoming Resurrection Seekers as well, with varying success. At the end of the series, the protagonists hope to use a loophole in the laws of reality to resurrect the clones; since they were technically never considered "alive" in the traditional sense, they are not "dead" and thus may be brought back without damaging the fabric of reality. |

In The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, Yuga and Hilda's plan involved reviving Ganon, in order to seize his Triforce of Power. Hijacked by Ganon didn't take place, at least not fully... |

His girlfriend Jan is decapitated in a car wreck, so Bill uses his experimental serum to bring her head back to life.

Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality: Harry makes it his goal from the very beginning to defeat death. This only transforms into "bring back the dead" when Hermione Granger dies. He preserves her corpse as well as possible (even transmuting it to hide it from the teachers who think he has an unhealthy obsession), and eventually manages to bring her back with the help of Voldemort and the Philosopher's Stone. Voldemort then does him a service by gifting Hermione with a true Horcrux (making any further death temporary), and transmuting her to have a troll's Healing Factor and a unicorn's purity (which includes an aura of innocence, perfect health, and indestructible teeth and nails). Harry wisely hides the truth of her resurrection from everyone else, and she becomes known as "the Girl Who Revived," credited with killing Voldemort for good by virtue of her resurrection. | |

In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, two of Voldemort's old followers put together a plan to revive the Dark Lord fully, albeit for different motives. One of them (Wormtail) was a turncoat who had been hiding for years and simply ran out of options after being discovered by the people he had betrayed, while the other (Barty Crouch Jr.) was a true believer in Voldemort's cause. | |

The Magicians (2016): In season 2, during the battle with the Beast, Quentin's girlfriend Alice goes full niffin to kill the Beast—meaning that she uses so much magic that it burns her out, leaving nothing but the power and a violent sense of humor behind. After Alice kills the Beast, she is about to kill everyone else, so Quentin unleashes his cacodaemon to kill her. After Quentin recovers from the battle, he finds the White Lady, one of the Questing Creatures of Fillory, and tries to get her to resurrect Alice, but is informed this is impossible. He eventually finds out that Alice is still alive in her niffin form; the cacodaemon couldn't kill her, so it bound her into the magical tattoo on Quentin's back. Quentin then becomes obsessed with trying to reverse Alice's niffin transformation. Many have tried to cure niffins over the centuries (Alice herself being one of them), but no one has ever succeeded. Quentin only begins making real progress when he discovers that the transformation stripped Alice of her shade, the part of her soul that feels pain and guilt, and brings it back from the Underworld - or more specifically, brings back Julia's shade when Julia has an epiphamy in the underworld and learns how to stay sane without it, and then trades Julia's shade for Alice's, which cures Alice. Unfortunately, this has the mild but untreated side effect of bringing her shortcomings and grudges to the front of her mind, not to mention all the monsters out for blood when her niffin had fun murdering their families, causing Alice to undergo a subtle Sanity Slippage, until she's willing to destroy magic just to get away from it all. | |

In League of Legends, this is the primary motivation of Viego, the Ruined King, trying to resurrect his fallen queen. His instability following her death led him to search down the hidden Blessed Isles to exploit their supposed secrets of eternal life, but the attempted resurrection ritual was so botched that he produced a terrifying curse that transformed the lands into the Shadow Isles, a festering home of undeath and eternal suffering. From there, he leads his new legion of damned souls in an effort to reclaim and reconstruct his queen's soul so they can be together again, and he's willing to tear apart Runeterra to do so. | |

Shadow Hearts: From The New World: Graham Garland utilized the manuscript to resurrect his children Grace and Johnny after they died in a car accident. For the first time in the franchise it actually worked solely due to the fact that Grace's sacrificed her opportunity once she saw that johnny wouldn't make it. In the aftermath, Johnny became ritual's only success but at the price of her sister becoming hollow shell of evil intent and his father dying in the process. | |

Backstory from The Heroes of Olympus reveals that since Thanatos was kidnapped, the boundaries between life and death were blurred. Nico attempts to take advantage of this and sneak his sister Bianca (whose death was a major Cynicism Catalyst) out of the Underworld. He finds out that she chose to be reincarnated without telling him, much to his chagrin, and he brings his half-sister Hazel Back from the Dead instead. | |

Ninjago: This is Pythor's plan in season 1, hoping to revive a mythic snake called the Great Devourer. It's firmly a type two, as Pythor plans to use the Devourer to conquer Ninjago. Downplayed in season 6, but part of Nadakhan's motivation is to revive his long-dead love, Dilara, via having her possess Nya. This is the motivation of the Quiet One, the leader of the Sons of Garmadon biker gang in season 8. The Quiet One's parents were killed in the Great Devourer's rampage, and because Garmadon is the one who killed the Great Devourer, they came to view Garmadon as a surrogate father figure, despite never having met him before his Heroic Sacrifice. While it has shades of the second type (wanting to use Garmadon's power to rule Ninjago and conquer the ninja who weren't able to stop the Devourer), ultimately the Quiet One just wants to supplant Lloyd as Garmadon's child. |

Fairy Tail: Jellal's goal as a Brainwashed and Crazy Arc Villain is to use the R-System to bring the The Dreaded Black Wizard Zeref back to life. Unfortunately, even if the heroes hadn't stopped him, it would've been All for Nothing because Zeref was never dead to begin with; the plan was simply Ultear's way of using Jellal as a scapegoat while her guild, Grimoire Heart, conducted their own plans for Zeref. Grimoire Heart themselves believe Zeref to be in a "sleeping" state, forced to wander the earth with his true power and evil sealed off, and acquire keys that are said to "awaken" him. As with Jellal, this was All for Nothing as Zeref's inconsistent power was simply a side effect of his conflicting morals, and all Grimoire Heart accomplishes is Awakening the Sleeping Giant and embracing evil. Zeref himself had this as his primary motivation in his youth to bring his dead little brother back to life. The R-System was just one of his original plans to facilitate this, which he abandoned due to being Awesome, but Impractical. He eventually settled on reviving his brother, Natsu, as a demon using his corpse. |

In Pumpkinhead II: Blood Wings, in the backstory a disabled teenage boy is murdered by a group of greasers. His distraught mother then researches witchcraft for the next several years (she's completely unrelated to the woods witch from the first film, btw) to bring him back from the dead, but decided against it when she found out that his restless spirit would be reincarnated as an unstoppable demonic monster, making her a subversion. But rather than destroying any of her work, she just leaves the spellbook lying around in her cabin so a bunch of drunk assholes (our main characters, folks) can steal them and revive Pumpkinhead anyway. | |

Warhammer 40,000: Several groups hope to one day heal the God-Emperor from his current state and return mankind to its former glory. Earlier editions had the Sensei, the immortal, non-genetically modified children that the God-Emperor had sired during his millenia of existence, and which the group known as the Illuminati wants to sacrifice to bring the Emperor back. The Thorians hope to build a suitable host body for the Emperor's spirit, allowing his resurrection via Body Surfing. The Dragon Warriors Chaos Warband are attempting to use the knowledge of shamanistic magic from the prehistory of Nocturne, home of the Salamanders, to resurrect the Traitor Chaplain who led them. This is noteworthy because the vast majority of the Chaos-worshipers of the setting despise the dead and see them as failures. The Dragon Warriors are the only faction in Chaos explicitly working to resurrect a dead character, at least by the 'present day' of the tabletop game. This is further explored in Salamanders novels. |

In the second half of Chrono Trigger, your entire party, and Marle in particular, for Crono, the main character (the actual means to do this turns out to involve preventing their death via Time Travel). It's possible to beat the game without going through the resurrection, but if you do so, the ending indicates that with Lavos gone, reviving Crono has become the characters' new top priority. | |

She seeks to bring back her mother Sothis back to life, both to finally put her own grieving heart at ease, and to have Sothis assume Fódlan's leadership like she once did in the distant past. For this purpose, she not only had created multiple failed vessels (one of which was Byleth's mother), but is also why she recruits a grown up Byleth later and tests during the Academy Arc of all four routes if they truly are a successful vessel for Sothis to occupy. | |

Played for horror in Dragon Age II, where a man is driven mad by the desire to resurrect his wife and starts murdering Kirkwall women to harvest their body parts that look like his late wife's and grafting them together in a sick Blood Magic ritual to frankenstein her back into existence. The worst part of it is that Hawke's own mother is harvested for her face in Act II. It is also worth mentioning that All Deaths Final in the DA universe, so his efforts are futile. | |

This was the end-plot for Fire Emblem: Awakening. The entire plot revolved around Validar working to revive the Fell Dragon, Grima, who would bring about the destruction of mankind, and so all of Validar's gambits led up to it. When the heroes foil his final plan, kill him at last, and seemingly prevent the ritual from happening, this simply prompts the Grima from the Bad Future, who followed Lucina and her comrades to keep the future on course, to step in at last and finish the resurrection himself. | |

A part of The Epic of Gilgamesh has Gilgamesh enlisting the gods to bring his friend Enkidu back to life after he ends up trapped in the underworld. Notably, this part contradicts everything else in the story, where Enkidu stays dead and Gilgamesh learns the hard way that We All Die Someday. (Scholars have theorized that it was an entirely different story that got attached to Epic at a later date.) | |

In the backstory of Pokémon X and Y, the former king AZ used the Ultimate Weapon to wipe out all life on Kalos, to end a war and gather enough souls to revive his beloved Floette that died during the conflict. It worked, but she knew exactly why she was alive again, and abandoned him. He was cursed with immortality in the process as well, and spends the next 3,000 years trying to atone for it. | |
