This character is Immortal, but not because they have Nigh-Invulnerability or can regenerate any injury. They are immortal because they don't age, nor do they usually sicken. This character will never die from natural causes. However, they are just as vulnerable to injury as a normal person, and any normally fatal injury will prove fatal to them as well. This is frequently a racial trait of elves and almost always a feature of robots and vampires. Of course, this trope can be combined with many other Immortality Tropes, particularly Nigh-Invulnerability. Characters that are extremely difficult to kill while also unable to age provides convenience for long-running series, and can also give villains credibility in terms of their threat (an Evil Overlord that can rule the Earth forever is clearly more threatening than one with average human lifespan). Frequently overlaps with Immortality Begins at Twenty. Also frequently overlaps with immortality by Healing Factor or From a Single Cell, to the point it's more unusual to find someone with a Healing Factor without slowed or stopped aging than one with it. If this trope is combined with Nigh-Invulnerability and taken to its logical extreme, it may become Complete Immortality. It is also not uncommon for ageless beings to continue to grow in strength and vigor over their long lives. It should be noted that much of what we call "dying from old age" is actually an accumulation of small illnesses and damages to the body, which result in the immune system either getting weaker or overwhelmed until it gets defeated. The Ageless is thus someone who is simply immune to these low-scale sickness though it raises questions as to where the immunity starts and where it stops. Compare Long-Lived, Really 700 Years Old. Contrast Life Drinker, which involves stealing lifeforce from victims to maintain immortality, rather than the non-aging being an innate trait to begin with, and Age Without Youth, where a character is something close to immortal despite aging. |

Adventure Time: Princess Bubblegum has been around for centuries and still looks the same. While she usually appears about 18, this "age" (and the maturity that comes with it) depends on her physical size. Marceline is immortal due to being a vampire, and seems to have been a teenager for about a thousand years. (Note that even if she wasn't a vampire, she'd still be very Long-Lived due to being half-demon). The crown made Ice King look like an old man when he was quite young, and when the power of the crown was taken away, a thousand years later, he reverted to his previous age as Simon Petrikov then rapidly started dying of old age. He took care of Marceline when she was a child, and according to Death himself, may well live to see the Sun blow up. Ice King's pet penguin, Gunter, who is eventually revealed to be an amnesiac Eldritch Abomination sealed in the form of a penguin. Even discounting the time when Gunter was a cosmic deity, as he is older than the universe itself, it's shown that he's been around since prehistoric times, and Ice King has known him for well over a century. |

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): Ghidorah is functionally immortal and has been around for billions of years. It's implied that rather than being a natural trait, this is a result of the Makers' experiments on Ghidorah when they turned it into what it is now. Although it's not confirmed for certain, Ghidorah believes that its part-Ghidorah Artificial Hybrid "offspring" Monster X might be immortal too. | |

Those who leave to live elsewhere start aging again, though they do so at a much slower rate than humans as Diana and Steve Trevor discover. Di still chooses to gladly live out the rest of Steve's life with him even though it is clear she will live much longer. | |

The Merman's Children: Merfolk age at the same rate as humans until they reach adulthood, and then stop. Undersea life is so hard and dangerous that many die young, including three of Vanimen and Agnete's seven children, but the lucky ones live for centuries. The downside is that merfolk are The Soulless, so when they die they simply disappear instead of going on to Heaven or Hell. | |

Conrad Nomikos from This Immortal has stopped aging somewhere in his mid-20s, most likely due to mutation caused by radioactivity, and keeps reinventing new identities for himself at somewhat regular intervals to hide that fact. His inner monologue implies that he can die from unnatural causes, but will live forever otherwise. This comes in handily in the end when Tatram Yshtigo judges Conrad to be morally upright and long-lived enough to take control over all affairs concerning planet Earth. | |

Enlightenments: Wander aged up to about how old he was in Shadow of the Colossus after Dormin slipped him through the seal as a baby, then got stuck there physically. It's because he has a chunk of Dormin's soul still inside him that they can't reclaim, which is why he also has Resurrective Immortality. | |

Similarly to 40K, greenskins appear to be ageless. Certainly, there are no old examples of either, but that may come down more to their extremely violent lifestyle. At least in one continuity of the setting, the goblin warboss Grom the Paunch has survived for at least a century with no signs of aging, much to the consternation of his Arch-Enemy Eltharion. | |

The Lord Ruler from Mistborn. He can store up youth and health by using Feruchemy for later consumption, making him both ageless and virtually impervious to injury. In the end, Vin kills him by tearing away his storages - so she almost literally rips the vitality out of him. Also the kandra, at least as far as we know. At the very least they live to be hundreds of years old without adverse effects. They are also rather tricky to kill by injury due to their ability to close wounds using their shapeshifting powers, the best way to kill them seems to be acid. That said the oldest among them do seem to be considerably less active than the younger ones, although it's unclear if they're actually any physically different or simply choose to stay put. |

The sorcerers of The Belgariad. People and animals who are "called" by one of the setting's gods can attain the status of sorcerer, which grants them power everywhere, not just within the boundaries of their god's territory as with mere priests, and makes them functionally immortal. They seem to choose the age they show the world -Belgarath looks old, but Polgara looks young. However, as the deaths of some of Belgarath's brother sorcerers show, they aren't even close to completely invulnerable. | |

According to their mythology as presented in White Dwarf 307, the original Amazons were immortal, and were made only female by their gods specifically because they did not need to produce offspring to make up for losses to old age. The Lizardmen's 5th Edition codex, which describes the Amazons as a band of renegade Norse warrior-women, depicts them as using a mysterious tropical drug that gives them eternal life and youth. | |

By the 25th century, aging is a thing of the past, but population size is strictly controlled. Special soldiers are grown and trained for the purpose of maintaining the size of the population and combating terrorists and ideologists of the so-called Life Party. | |

Mother of Learning: The "Immortal Eleven" aren't truly immortal; Oganj the dragon mage is known to have killed two of them. Rather, they are a group of expert alchemists who gained notoriety when they succeeded in brewing potions that stopped them from ageing. Silverlake is one of them; she doesn't reveal her exact age, but it's a 3-digit number and yet she looks merely middle-aged. She next wants to invent a potion that will restore her body's youth, though she's in no hurry. | |

Warcraft: Night elves used to have this form of immortality, before sacrificing it to save the world from the Burning Legion. All the elf and troll varieties appear to have this trait to uneducated humans, because of their Healing Factor. Thus they don't get wrinkles or grey hair as they age: and their active lifestyles tend to mean they maintain their physical fitness too. However, they do slow down both physically and mentally without help from magic and can die of old age (it just takes a really, really long time for them to do so). Draenei may also have this form of immortality (Velen is explicitly stated to but this may only be a trait of the Triuumvirate), or they may just be extremely long lived. Demons also have this type of Immortality (at least one quest states that at least some of them have Type IV as well). Dragons, or at least the Aspects, seem to be undying as well. Or were until they recently had to relinquish it, anyway. Various types of magic can be used to make a person effectively this trope. However, it generally comes with complications...like being enslaved to cosmic powers, or going completely insane. Certain very powerful individuals however, have managed it. Orcs might or might not be this trope. Even they don't know. This is because their planet was constantly trying to kill them even before they blew it up, and because of their "Honor Above All Else" mentality. They are considered elderly by the time they're thirty. Varok Saurfang, who was considered practically ancient by orcish standards at the time of his death, could not have been more than fifty five. No orc in living memory however, has actually shown physical signs of aging (Gul'dan's decrepit appearance was due to fel magic overuse, not age). |

Lyrical Nanoha: A common trait of the Ridiculously Human Magitek programs in the series, such as the Wolkenritter, Reinforce, Agito, and the Materials. Whether or not they overlap with other forms of immortality varies, but all of them have lived since the days of Ancient Belka, with their apparent age changing only if they want it to. StrikerS Sound Stage X introduces King Ixpellia. She has the same child-looking appearance she has now as she did when she ruled as Garea's figurehead king hundreds of years ago, although it is unknown if she has any other form of immortality since she's kept away from the front lines. |

Wearing the Cape: In Barlow's Guide to Superhumans, Iri Pegason, an ultra-class telekinetic with a hallucinogenic drug induced breakthrough guided by choldhood fantasy, is forever frozen at the age of sixteen, the age that he was when he experienced his breakthrough, and has been a homeless perpetual teenage stoner for ten years or so. Iri is ageless and biologically immortal (will not die from any natural cause) but is not fully immortal — he is not nigh invulnerable and can die from violent or un-natural causes. | |

A Practical Guide to Evil: This is the case for Named villains. After coming into their name, they stop aging and are theoretically immortal- although in practice, the constant conflict of Good vs. Evil or their own megalomanic schemes ensure they die at about the same age as their heroic counterparts. Elves do not die of age either - the elves living in the Golden Bloom are still the same racist pricks who slaughtered the former inhabitants some centuries ago (which is good for them, since they have been cursed not to have children since that massacre.) Very, very powerful Drow who learned the right secrets are also functionally immortal, but their Chronic Backstabbing Disorder and the amount of Night powering this keeps these numbers small. By contrast, less powerful drow have a fixed lifespan, always dying at 60. |

Comes up several times in With This Ring: Orange Lanterns can maintain their bodies in perfect condition for as long as they desire it and can keep their rings charged. Since Paul doesn't expect that he'll ever want to be dead, he anticipates having thousands of years ahead of him, if something doesn't manage to kill him first (and make it stick). Alan Scott has been infused with green light, which means he can keep going as long as he remains supplied with it. Unfortunately, Paul has turned his personal lantern orange, and the Guardians aren't keen to hand over a new one... Eventually, with Alan on his deathbed, Paul manages to commission a blue personal lantern, which rejuvenates Alan Just in Time, and is able to keep him young indefinitely so long as he retains hope. |

Dragon Ball: Master Roshi and his sister Fortuneteller Baba are this, both having drank from the Fountain of Youth. King Piccolo first mentioned wanting to wish for eternal youth from Shenron so he could rule the world forever, and gets it. The Funimation dub changed his wish to just having his youth restored (he was even stated to be holding back against Goku at first because fighting at full strength makes him age faster). According to Daizenshuu 2, Piccolo Jr. inherited this from him. Androids #17 , #18, and #20 are this due to their Cyborg status. #17 and #18 were captured as runaway teenage humans and turned into this by Dr. Gero's experiments (though they actually do age, just very slowly compared to normal humans), whereas Gero had his own brain transferred into the robotic #20 body. While Saiyans aren't immortal, their aging process is similar to the Androids, in that it's much slower than a humans (and may be even slower than 17 and 18's). It becomes noticeable in the epilogue, where most of the cast show visible signs of age except for Goku and Vegeta, who, aside from a change in wardrobe, look exactly the same as they did years ago during the Buu saga, which even gets lampshaded a few times. According to Vegeta, Saiyans stay young until they're 80, which would explain why Goku doesn't look any older than his adult son Gohan. It's a bit of a subversion though, since Saiyans still have a short life expectancy; due to their status as a Proud Warrior Race, they usually tend to die in battle more often than not, and sure enough, all the main Saiyan characters have died at least once. |

Unnamed Memory: All witches have stopped aging at the time they became witches. Tinasha became one at the age of 13 and only aged up a couple times to heal near fatal injuries, making her 430 years old but physically 19 during the main story. It is later made clear that witches can resume their aging if they decide to, however. Which is what Tinasha opts to do when she marries Oscar, so that she can die of old age by his side. | |

dead things: Harry Potter becomes this, forever looking like a 17-year-old. It's initially thought it's because Harry is the Master of Death, however, the truth proves to be far more horrifying. When he died the first time, the piece of Voldemort's soul wasn't the only thing destroyed — a part of Harry's soul was lost to death as well. For a while, nobody notices because magical people in general age more slowly than Muggles. Then, he's just parted ways with everyone by going abroad. When he comes back, only his closest friends recognize him because Harry Potter should be forty-five. | |

Golden Sun: Dark Dawn took place 30 years after the previous games. Due to the heroes of the original duology being directly exposed to the titular Golden Sun that ensured The Magic Comes Back, their aging was slowed to the point that despite being around 50 they still look twenty years younger and their Spin-Offspring are disturbed by the thought of growing older while their parents look the same. The Professor Kraden was 70 when the Golden Sun happened, and many people are astonished to see that he's even still alive let alone looking the exact same. | |

12 Monkeys: The serum required to survive using the Project Splinter time machine seems to render the user as this, or at the very least alters how the aging process works. Ramse, for instance, spends decades Trapped in the Past without visibly aging, only for a later medical exam to show that parts of his biology have in fact aged at a normal pace. The Pallid Man and Olivia, the Co-Dragons of the Army of the Twelve Monkeys, also don't seem to age at all, leading to speculation that they're time travelers as well. Season 2 reveals that it's actually because they're the biological and cloned (respectfully) children of one of the Messengers, and share in her genetics, which were engineered specifically to work this way. |

Downplayed in both Doctor Who and Torchwood with Captain Jack Harkness. He initially thought he wouldn't age, but after a long time started to notice he was getting wrinkles and his hair was graying, so he was just ageing very slowly. As in "looks the same age after spending 2000 years buried alive" slowly. The Doctor Who episode "Last of the Time Lords" reveals that Jack may be destined to transform over millions of years into a creature known as the Face of Boe, which is little more than a giant head. | |

In Max Frei's Labyrinths of Echo: Khrebels, the pure spirits. Effectively immortal, possibly vulnerable only to the destruction of their world. As the mysterious World's Heart pierces the planet like a rod, two entities inhabit the ends - the Spirit of Kholomi in Echo and an unnamed entity on the opposite end. Both are probably immortal unless the world is destroyed. Pure-blooded elves. This doesn't extend to their offspring with other sentients, leading to dramatic scenarios and the creation of Kharumba. True Magic users of sufficient power, e.g. Maba Kalokh. Ancient Magisters, e.g. Khabba Khän. |

Atomic Robo is, y'know, a robot. As long as he gets repaired when he does take damage, he could keep going forever. As of the "Birthdays" mini-story, put out in 2019, he was - depending on how one factored in the whole "time travel" incident at the end of volume 8 - either 96, 109, or 239 years old and had had his entire body replaced. The vampirised version of Rex Cannon also seems to be unaging; he rants to Robo about how he toiled for six thousand years to build the dimensional rift in "The Vengeful Dead". | |

Inuyasha: The black miko Tsubaki from Inuyasha has used her magic to deprive other people of youth and to stay young herself. But later, her power is destroyed and she quickly ages until she is killed by this. Kikyo would have qualified for it if she had not been killed at the end of the anime plot. It is mentioned that because she had become an undead, she would have been immortal and would not have changed visually. In Inuyasha the Movie: Fire on the Mystic Island there is a magical island. There humans and youkai live together and have children together. Because the stay on this island is like a fountain of youth, the humans there do not age. At the time of the plot, however, the island was destroyed, and only six hanyou children survived, who also have not aged for at least fifty years. But because many hanyou are naturally very long-lived, it is unknown if that was the effect of the island. |

In the The Mortal Instruments and The Infernal Devices, warlocks are this. They do not age after reaching adulthood, but are not significantly more resistant to physical injury than humans. This is also implied to be the case with the Fair Folk. Vampires are a little closer to Immortality, as they possess Healing Factor, although they can still be killed, most obviously by sunlight. | |

In StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, Stetmann's research on the Zerg sample reveals that the Zerg do not suffer cell degradation, meaning they can't die of old age. Stetmann refuses to even consider figuring out a way to grant this ability to humans, since the results would likely be Body Horror. Instead, he figures out how to apply it to metals to make self healing buildings. However, Starcraft II Heart Of The Swarm clarifies that all organisms age, including Zerg, even if they don't die from it. | |

Undertale: Boss Monsters are a powerful subspecies of monster with a more powerful soul than most other monsters. These monsters age to maturity and then stop until they have a child, at which point they begin aging again as their child reaches maturity. Boss Monsters who never have children will never grow old, and even those who have gotten older will still live forever if their child has died. The only Boss Monsters still alive are Asgore and Toriel, and both are confirmed to have lived for more than a century (if Bratty and Catty's wording is to be taken seriously and not as hyperbole, they are actually a millenia old or older). Downplayed with normal monsters. They don't need a child to age, but still have a long lifespan. Gerson proves this, as he's confirmed to have fought in the Great Offscreen War (which was implied to have happened a millenia ago, once again by Bratty and Catty). In Deltarune, an Alternate Universe to Undertale, the two Boss Monsters in question are aging, due to having a still alive son, who's college age. On the flipside, the newly-introduced Darkners have been implied to be at least a century long if Jevil is to be believed. |

Wolverine's Healing Factor allows him to live far beyond the normal lifespan of a regular human. Despite being born in the late 19th century, he has the appearance, conditioning, health, and vitality of a man in his physical prime. That being said he does age, if slowly and more than one continuity as seen a future where his healing mutation is finally starting to give out on him (implied to be because the extra stress on his system because of the metal in his bones is starting to overwhelm his healing) and he's starting to show his age. | |

From the Marvel Universe, Nick Fury. His brand of immortality stems from the Infinity Formula, for which he was the lab rat during World War II (without his consent, he was half-dead at the time, having just stepped on a landmine). The formula took about a quarter of a century to work on his biology, and now, although being nominally 90 years old (born 1917-1918) he is physically in his 40s, 50s tops and will not age another day. He can however be wounded, and presumably killed; nobody really achieved that, since he's Colonel Badass, with an Eyepatch of Power. Then, it's revealed that the formula's effects have faded. Then, again, he becomes even more this. | |

Warbreaker: One of the perks anyone able to gather enough of the local magical energy, Bio-Chromatic Breath, to reach at least the Fifth Heightening (approximately 2,000 Breaths) gets. People with less than that age more slowly, but the Fifth Heightening is when it stops completely, and they're immune to poison and disease to boot (although still vulnerable to physical injures). The main issue is that each person is born with a single Breath that can only be given away willingly. 2,000 Breaths would be an incredibly valuable hoard, to say the very least. The Returned are people who died and came back with a Divine Breath, automatically putting them at the Fifth Heightening (thus making them immortal). They no longer need to eat or drink, but instead consume a single Breath each week. If they can't get more Breath from an outside source, their Divine Breath is consumed, killing them, so many don't live beyond their first week. They are still just as vulnerable to injury as anybody else, as poor Blushweaver discovered. |

Mutants & Masterminds: Agelessness is a single point (immunity to aging). For full biological immortality, add immunity to disease, poison, and environmental radiation for three more points. Plus an additional point to make these innate (won't get nullified/neutralized by power theft, power nullification cell or collar, etc..). Full biological immortality runs you 5 points. Stronger forms of immortality up to and including Nigh invulnerability or complete immortality will cost you much more - regeneration, immortality, more potent immunities. Immunity to all toughness + will + fortitude resisted effects will run you 140pp with nearly nothing leftover - very boring character to play and unlikely to be approved by a GM. Innate regeneration 20 and immortality 20 will cost an additional 80 points — 220 points will get you a complete immortal nigh invulnerable god. | |

Dungeons & Dragons has two variants on this trope: Monks and Druids (as well as some Prestige Classes) gain the Timeless Body ability, which causes them to no longer age physically (or at least do not get any penalties for aging) until they drop dead when they reach their species' maximum age (thus invoking the Old Master trope). Two races, Elan and the Killoren, have no maximum age and will visibly age to a certain point (venerable age for Elan, old age for Killoren) but never die of old age. Combining either race with either class leads to this trope. There's also an epic feat that adds half your maximum possible age to each age category (a stadium where your character gets visibly older), which has the same effect on them. | |

Comes up as a huge plot point in Fallout 4. Kellogg, the man who kidnapped your son is able to maintain his youth due to extensive cybernetic augmentation. Perceptive players may be able to notice when trawling through his memories that he was a ten year old boy when the NCR was formed in 2189, meaning by the events of 4 he would have been over a century old. The whole point is to show just how the Sole Survivor's perception of the flow of time has been altered by being a Human Popsicle - by the time they finally meet their son Shaun, their baby boy is a sixty-year-old man with terminal cancer. | |

Also Raven Darkholme to a point, who ages at a very slow rate due to the ability of her cells to alter their function, which makes more sense than Shaw's immortality in the framework of the established rules of the universe. Logan already being roughly 130 years old in 1962, and only appearing around thirty-five, when a young Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr attempt to recruit him in a bar. Forty years before he ends up actually joining the X-Men. |

In Vadim Panov's Secret City: Nav', although mortal and with some WeaksauceWeaknesses. Divine Lords of Tat'. While vulnerable to both regular and magical harm, their power levels and personal brands of Taking You with Me which inflict damage on geological scale serve as a strong deterrent. Possibly the Asura, although their surviving contemporaries, Nav' and Tat', are unreliable sources of information at best. The last couple of Osara, king and queen of the common Os'. This is at least partially caused by Nav' meddling. "Flying Dutchman's" crew - they are ageless and maybe truly immortal until they either voluntarily leave the ship or fulfill the Curse Escape Clause. |

The Forerunners in Halo. The highly advanced armor systems every Forerunner wears provides continuous medical service, both physically and mentally, allowing the wearer to live pretty much forever. It's unknown exactly how old the oldest Forerunner was before their species' destruction, but some are mentioned to be over 12,000 years old. The Didact is technically 100,000 years old, but that may be due to the Cryptum he was trapped in, and not necessarily just his armor systems. The Forerunners also experimented with Type V immortality, but that was one of the few pieces of technology they actually couldn't properly master. |

Fallout: Ghouls and Super Mutants. The former can still suffer from mental degeneration, which results in them becoming zombie-like "feral" Ghouls. Some Ghouls even remark that their supposed "immortality" is more like this, as they still age (albeit very slowly). Some of the latter are mentally unstable. The Nightkin of the first generation are because of their prolonged Stealth Boy use. And the second generation is because of their post-War mutation(s) to the radiation, and the Forced Evolutionary Virus' reaction to this. The Super Mutants found in the Capital Wasteland and Commonwealth in fact become Stronger with Age, but at the cost of their sanity. Comes up as a huge plot point in Fallout 4. Kellogg, the man who kidnapped your son is able to maintain his youth due to extensive cybernetic augmentation. Perceptive players may be able to notice when trawling through his memories that he was a ten year old boy when the NCR was formed in 2189, meaning by the events of 4 he would have been over a century old. The whole point is to show just how the Sole Survivor's perception of the flow of time has been altered by being a Human Popsicle - by the time they finally meet their son Shaun, their baby boy is a sixty-year-old man with terminal cancer. On a related note, Fallout 4 also fleshes out more of the in-series lore concerning the Institute's Synths. Being androids, it's explained that Synths cannot age any more or less than the age that they're designed to resemble. However, some other information in-universe implies that Synths do age, but at such a slow rate compared to ordinary people that it's ultimately negligible. |

In Sword of the Stars, the Liir cannot die of old age. Instead, they become bigger and more powerful. Their population is kept in check by the Square-Cube Law; eventually, their mass becomes too great for them to survive even in an aquatic environment and they are crushed to death by gravity. The Suul'ka are Liir elders who went "screw gravity" and teleported themselves into space. | |

In The Silent War The Redcloaks, the setting's empowered demon slayers, don't age nor suffer sickness or infections. Protagonist Katja is still only a teenager, but her mentor is her 130's (and apparently considered something of a teenager herself, by the true elders). | |

In Steven Universe, each Gem is Born as an Adult and never ages, and can only truly "die" if their gemstone is shattered (and even then, the shards remain partially conscious, knowing nothing but their desire to be whole again). Steven Quartz Universe being half-gem seems to have made his aging erratic and somewhat affected by his state of mind, though he still manages to look like a human his age by his late teens. Word of God suggested Steven would only die of old age if he chose to. | |

The angels from Tales of Symphonia. The Cruxis Crystals halts the aging process, which is why Mithos Yggdrasil still looks more or less exactly the way he did 4000 years ago. Even Expheres slow the aging process considerably, in addition to the basic skill upgrades they give. Presea even brings up the possibility of a world of exosphere-preserved Immortals to Lloyd, who gently reminds her that they're Powered by a Forsaken Child. | |

The krogan in Mass Effect are implied to be this. Wrex and Okeer are both over a thousand years old (Wrex was born sometime after the start of the Krogan Rebellions, while Okeer was apparently alive and fighting during the Rachni Wars), and neither show even the slightest sign of keeling over from old age any time soon. The only reason that most krogan rarely do reach advanced age is because their homeworld Tuchanka is a Death World, populated by Thresher Maws and fierce infighting between the various clans. The life expectancy for krogan who go off-world is just as low, due to many hiring themselves out as mercenaries or joining criminal gangs. Andromeda brings us Drack, who is over 1,400 years old and noted to be exceedingly old even for a krogan. It's mentioned in passing he is reaching the end of his life (meaning he has another century or so left), but it's not clarified whether that's because the krogan do have a maximum lifespan or whether the sheer number of injuries he's accumulated are finally catching up to him. | |

The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion: The elves have an unending lifespan until the world ends, have the vigor and strength of a human in his prime even when thousands of years old (though they may outwardly age under years of torture, as Gwindor in Silm), and do not get sick. They only die if slain or by wasting away from grief. Even death isn't always permanent; after an elf's spirit has spent some years in the Halls of Waiting, if they have thoroughly repented and learned from any sins they committed, they get re-embodied — this, however, is not an inherent power but a grace provided by the Valar (the godlike archangels of Arda).note The only "aging" they experience is "fading," which slowly turns them intangible but takes tens of thousands of years to even start. But this only happens to those who stay in Middle-earth, and it isn't clear that it's anything inherent to the elves themselves. Although this may actually just be extreme toughness. Apparently male elves grow beards in their "third stage of life". This may correspond with a human's "middle age". In other words, they may have a biological clock much like that of a human...just slowed down to such an extent that no elf will die of old age before the world ends. Immortality, after all, is NOT a blessing in this setting. Orcs, who are (usually) understood as corrupted elves, are hinted in a few places to be similarly ageless, but this is not explicitly stated. Ainur (Valar and Maiar) are ageless within the world, and will continue in perfect youth until the end of the world. Their youthfulness however is because of the fact that they can make new bodies at will. Their bodies (called "fanar") can age after whatever manner is normal for that type of body. It's just that the spirit inside doesn't leave the world, and can inhabit a new body. Corrupted Ainurs however, mostly Maiar like Balrogs, Sauron himself and Saruman, seem to lose the ability to inhabit a new body after death, though. Most Balrogs are said to be "destroyed" after the 1st Age, and the one in the Moriah "dies". Saruman's spirit tries to head back to the Blessed Realms upon his assassination, but a gust of wind from the West rejects and disperses the last remnants of Saruman's spirit. Sauron is different: he lost several bodies and kept the ability to shapeshift into human form until the Doom of Numenor. Even then, as long as the One Ring was still "alive and kicking", Sauron would not fade and be able to respawn. Once the One Ring is destroyed, as Gandalf says, Sauron will lost almost all of his power(s) and wander forever in deserted areas, unable to regain a material form or to hurt anyone anymore. This places him above Saruman in resilience terms. As for Melkor/Morgoth, it's even more nebulous. Like the other Valar, he's presumably unkillable, but it as been shown Morgoth can be wounded, even mutilated, by powerful elves or exceptionnal human beings. The Istari, or wizards, are understood to be five Maiar sent to Middle Earth with the appearance of wizened men, with the intent that they provide counsel, not become rulers. According to the Tale of Years they'd been in Middle Earth for two thousand years by the time of the War of the Ring but remain apparently ageless, though small signs of the passage of time are noticeable (longer beards and eyebrows, for example). Despite their guise as men their longevity sometimes got them mistaken for elves (the real etymology of the name "Gandalf" is "elf with a [magic] wand", as Tolkien pointed out). Ents are just as long-lived as elves, as Treebeard explains to the hobbits. They have a tendency to get sleepy and tree-like, but they never age. In the Blessed Realm of Aman, all animal and plant life remains in a state of youthful adulthood after reaching maturity. The Hounds of Oromë, which may or may not just be dogs, are as ageless as elves. Dragons can be killed but they never die from natural causes. Tolkien originally wrote that dragons generally will live "practically forever" unless killed, and this is what it says in the published book. However, in Tolkien's revisions of The Hobbit that were never completed, he changed it so that dragons are stated to be Long-Lived with a lifespan of 5000 or 1000 years. Which would have been coherent with the rule for Ainurs, as Morgoth is said to have created the dragons by giving these kinds of new bodies (unwinged, then at the very end of the War of Great Wrath, the winged ones, Ancalagon being the first-born and all-time biggest one of all dragons) to malevolent Maiar. Unlike Orcs or Balrogs, Dragons don't seem to have been created from something pre-existing. This inevitably arises the question of where the spirit of a dragon dead from old age would settle, as nowhere it has ever even been suggested Sauron would have been able to rise new dragons, be it from scratch or simply by giving the remaining ones replacement bodies. Given he lost the ability to generate a flesh body for himself when Numenor was swallowed by the Ocean millenia before the War of the Ring, he probably can't do it for other beings either. Tom Bombadil, who calls himself Eldest and was there before all living creatures and indeed most of the world as later beings knew it, is of a completely unguessable age physically and generally acts gleefully unaffected by the world's cares (though he shows his grasp of responsibility and justice, as it pertains within his carefully demarcated realm, on several occasions). His wife Goldberry, though not as old, seems similarly ageless. |

In The Legend of Wonder Woman (2016) most of the Amazons have normal lifespans, outside of randomly being granted a pregnancy or two, with only the very few who are the champions of Olympians having their aging stopped which comes at a price where they have to watch everyone around them age and die and lose a significant degree of their autonomy to their patron god. | |

In Star Trek: Flint, in the Star Trek: The Original Series episode "Requiem for Methuselah", was born on Earth in 3834 BC as Akharin ("A soldier, a bully, and a fool...") who was fatally wounded in battle and just didn't die. Over the years, he claimed to be Solomon, Leonardo da Vinci, and Brahms, among others. Once away from Earth's "complex fields", he began to age normally. The El-Aurians, introduced in Star Trek: The Next Generation, can be killed, but they age very slowly otherwise. Guinan has the same physical appearance (barring time-appropriate clothing and hairdo) between the 19th and 24th century. They are revealed to be able to choose whether they physically age or not in Star Trek: Picard.note The Doylist reason was to justify Guinan having aged along with her actress. The second season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds introduces the very long-lived Human Aliens Lanthanites. Pelia is shown to have the same physical appearance between the 21st and 23rd century. |

Neptunia: This changes depending on which continuity/dimension the CPU comes from. In the case of the Super Dimension as shown in Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1, CPUs don't age as long as they're in power, but they can still die in combat or insufficient shares. They will also begin to age if they lose their powers as shown when Vert temporarily loses hers. In the case of the Hyper Dimension as shown in Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth2 SISTERS GENERATION, Megadimension Neptunia VII, and Neptunia: Sisters vs Sisters, CPUs are born from the people's faith and use their faith in the form of Shares for strength. As a result, not only are they biologically immortal, but as long as they're sufficiently topped off with Shares and not DePowered they don't have to worry about dying in combat unless against another CPU or a weapon explicitly designed to kill them like Gehaburn. Even then, several comments imply a CPU can relinquish their status and powers in "retirement" and live out a normal life. In the case of the Ultra Dimension as shown in Hyperdimension Neptunia V and Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory Re;Birth3: V Generation, CPUs can be killed in combat, but they will never age. Even if they lose all their shares and therefore access to their powers, they will still live forever, as shown with Rei Ryghts and how she's still around despite being effectively powerless for over centuries. |

Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Calypso has lived on a desert island for over 3,000 years without really getting older. This was justified by the fact that she was not a human but a Titan. Towards the end of the plot of The Heroes of Olympus she leaves the island, however, and is transformed into a human being. As a result, she has lost most of her strength, which is why she is likely to age thereafter like any other human being. The huntresses of Artemis have this. When the young girls swear their lives to the goddess, age can't kill them. Only if they fall in battle, or break their vow to swear off boys and romantic/physical relationships in general, can they die. |

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: It's subtley hinted that those from before the intersection of Bionis and Alrest have immortality, or at least cannot age. This is likely a result of Aionios being frozen in time, with those not reborn through Origin having their ages similiarly frozen in time. This is different from the form of immortality that Moebius have, as while they are able to exist for eons over time the can suffer the effects of aging, with the prime example being Triton, who has become a Scatterbrained Senior despite his immortality. Those known to have this ageless existance include Shulk, Rex, Melia Antiqua, Nia, Panacea Reid, Linka Cassini, and the seven legendary Nopon, which includes Riku. | |

Discussed, but ultimately averted in The Transformers (IDW). Cybertronians can live for millions of years with the known deaths either being voluntary or killed in combat. Ratchet even points out that the society as a whole doesn't really want to give up the idea that they aren't immortal. The Distant Finale of Lost Light would show Ratchet had indeed died of old age. | |

The Echo Ranger: Chapter 17 sees the Echo team making contact with a still-alive Karone, who looks like a middle-aged woman. She reveals that, while the humans from KO-35 have longer lifespans than earthlings (around 260 years), apparently something that Ecliptor or Dark Specter did to her when she was Astronema caused her aging to slow down and eventually stop altogether. | |

My Hero Academia: All For One's older than One For All, which has been passed down through nine heroes, yet has not aged since. All Might speculates that he found a Quirk that stops aging, later confirmed to be Dr. Garaki's Quirk, "Life Force". It's implied that he's not truly ageless, but his natural ageing process has been slowed down so noticeably that he'll be alive and in good health for a very long time — and his overarching plan throughout the series is ultimately to create the 'next him' in the younger Tomura's body with said Quirk copied into it, meaning All For One would outlive his original self's natural death and have an extended lifespan on top of that. This is part of the reason his Hour of Power with Eri's Rewind is able to last so long — despite the energy rewinding him at a speed so fast that the wounds All Might inflicted on him years ago vanish in seconds, he's so old that his lifespan has enough years on the clock that he's confident of freeing his 'Next me' before his inevitable Cessation of Existence. | |

Dorian Gray from The Picture of Dorian Gray had this because his painting aged and took the physical effect of his sins instead of him, though No Immortal Inertia kicked in when his Soul Jar was destroyed.

Odd Squad: Oprah looks 7 years old physically (at the start of Season 1, at least), but is really much older than that — about 231 years old, according to "Odd Beginnings: Part 2". In that episode, it's revealed that as the Big O, she has the ability to control her aging and can grow older as she wishes, but chooses to remain her current age to keep being employed with Odd Squad. It's unknown whether this is a perk of being the Big O, or if it's an ability exclusive to her. | |

Case Closed: One of the mysteries surrounding the villain Vermouth is the fact that she has apparently not aged in at least two decades. Jodie Starling, who encountered Vermouth as a child and again as an adult, and Yukiko Kudo, a longtime friend before discovering Vermouth's true nature, both remark upon this fact. Vermouth is a Master of Disguise, but she seems to have used this to hide her lack of aging, such as by posing as her own daughter after Faking the Dead for her original public persona. | |

Pony POV Series: Anyone who becomes the Macguffin Guardian of the Rainbows of Light and Darkness becomes this trope, starting with the Moochick and Spike's most ancient ancestor Heathspike. The Moochick eventually passed guardianship to the Paradise Ponies while Heathspike died in battle, sadly resulting in Darkness falling into Tirek's hands. The Paradise Ponies only died when they willingly left and gave up their role or Discord destroyed the Element of Trust and deactivated the Rainbow of Light, though they aged naturally after that. Even the Shards of the Rainbow of Light can offer a lengthened lifespan to those who can access their power, but it seems being an ageless immortal is reserved for the actual guardian. | |

The Elder Scrolls: Though there are many regional variations on their appearances and powers, vampires typically have this trait throughout the series. However, there's a catch: if a vampire goes too long without feeding, they'll go irrevocably insane. The Sload, a race of "slugmen" native to the "Coral Kingdoms" of Thras to the west of Tamriel, have no known age limit or size to adult Sload. One story tells of an "Elder Distended One," who seems to serve as some sort of leader to the Sload. It is said to be "impressively corpulent" and regurgitates some unknown substance that other Sload then "eagerly consume." The Nerevarine of Morrowind becomes this, along with having Ideal Illness Immunity, as a consequence of having Corprus but getting negative effects cured. Technically, anyone with the Corprus disease has these traits, but unless the negative effects are cured, it also leaves you completely insane with a nasty case of Body Horror. Dragons in Skyrim are this, being divine Aedric entities with Resurrective Immortality (unless their soul is absorbed by another dragon or a Dragonborn). In most cases, dragons even get Stronger with Age. Paarthurnax in particular has been waiting on top of the Throat of the World for Alduin's return since the Dragon War many thousands of years ago. The most powerful weapon that can be used against them is a Thu'um shout which forces dragons to briefly know what it's like to be Mortal, Finite, and Temporary. In gameplay, it robs them of the powers unique to dragonkind: flight and the use of the Thu'um. |

In One Piece, the Hobby-Hobby Fruit's main power is to turn people into toys, but it also has the side-effect of halting the aging process, effectively granting eternal youth. The current user, Sugar of the Donquixote Pirates, ate it as a child, and thus still is one physically. The ability to give someone both eternal life and youth is one of the main reasons why Trafalgar Law's Ope-Ope Fruit is called the "Ultimate Devil Fruit". Unfortunately, performing the surgery on someone also requires an extreme degree of medical expertise and will cost the user their life. |

Willie Wonka in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is at most ten years younger than Grandpa Joe, and may be older than him, yet looks about 35. He apparently is aging very slowly, as he found his First Gray Hair a few months before the start of events in the movie. He may have discovered the Fountain of Youth while trying to create some kind of strange candy, as his counterpart in Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator did. | |

In Rebuild of Evangelion 3.0, this is apparently a side effect of piloting an Eva: the pilot's physical age is fixed at that point. This results in a 28-year-old Asuka still having the 14-year-old body she had in the last film. Asuka refers to it as "the Curse of Eva". In the case of Mari, this goes back even further as 3.0+1.0 reveals she's actually at least as old as Shinji's parents.note Fan theory says it is due to prolonged exposure to LCL, though (along with basically everything else in Eva) no official explanation is given in the movies. | |

Calypso has lived on a desert island for over 3,000 years without really getting older. This was justified by the fact that she was not a human but a Titan. Towards the end of the plot of The Heroes of Olympus she leaves the island, however, and is transformed into a human being. As a result, she has lost most of her strength, which is why she is likely to age thereafter like any other human being. | |

However, this turns out to be quite wrong — they age and die just like anybody else, and appear ageless only due to spending so much of their lives in the timelessness of TÃr na nÓg. Under the right conditions, they experience the same slide into decrepitude that mortals do; it's just that their belief in their immortality is so strong that the aged Fae that do turn up are considered to be entire secondary species that try to mimic true Fae with outrageous lies. | |

Consolers: The companies don't physically age (120+ year old Nintendo being a good example) and won't die from simply aging or other natural causes. However, they can still die, usually from going bankrupt or otherwise going out of business - they still have to make an effort to "keep themselves alive" as a company. However, as long as they manage to stay in business they'll still stay alive even for hundreds of years. | |

In Good Omens (2019), Angels and Demons do not age, at all. Aziraphale and Crowley look the same in the present day as they did 6000 years ago, when they first met (except for their period-appropriate clothes and hairstyles, of course). And when Angels' and Demons' human bodies are killed (discorporated), they simply get another one and return to what they were doing. The only way to actually kill an Angel or a Demon is to use Holy Water (Demons), or Hellfire (Angels). It's the same in the book the show is based on. | |

Knights of Sidonia: The Immortal Council that rules Sidonia from the shadows, as well as the Sidonia's Captain. Apparently the Sidonia invented a drug that completely halts aging if regularly taken, however if an "immortal" stops taking this drug, they start to age at a regular pace once again. The existence of this Council and their drug is kept secret from all but the highest-ranking Sidonia crew. By implication, the main character Nagate Tanikaze as well due to his enhanced healing ability. Part of the reason he is constantly sent on life-threatening missions is that the immortal council objects to having an immortal who is not part of the council running around, not least of which because it could threaten the secret of their existence. |

Warhammer 40,000: Common humans and the Tau are the only ones that don't have a means to keep young. The Imperium has juvenat treatments which can keep the user young indefinitely, and can even treat people to keep them juvenated at a particular age within the span of adulthood, and some senior authority figures prefer to keep an outward appearance to give an impression of wisdom and experience. Thing is, juvenats are quite expensive, so only members of wealthy noble houses, highly valued or highly placed civil servants, and Inquisitorial personnel have easy access to them. Techpriests of the Adeptus Mechanicus replace all of their fleshy bits with machine parts over time, not to mention that they have access to the Imperium's limited cloning technologies. Provided they don't get killed, they're on record for living for millennia. The Space Marines' Astartes physiology will keep them somewhere between young and middle age, in theory, forever. In practice, their bodies take strains and wounds that even their bodies can't keep up with indefinitely, and they do age, albeit very slowly. Except for some of the most senior members of a chapter, their age is more told not by wrinkles and lines, but by scars and bionics they accrue over the years. Eldar will live a natural lifespan of roughly 1000 years. However, they will live longer as they get stronger psychic potential. As each of them is a natural latent psyker, they simply need training to expand and refine their psychic powers, and extend their life cycle. The most famous/notorious Eldar Farseer, Eldrad Ulthran, has been alive (and apparently young) since the Horus Heresy, nearly 11,000 years ago, and there's no telling how long he was alive before then. Dark Eldar are notorious for their means of keeping them alive. They have to go on slave raids to abduct prisoners, torture them to death, and drink in their suffering and their souls to rejuvenate themselves to youth. There are also a number of other, more creative ways of keeping a prisoner alive to extend their suffering. However, whether it's because they have extended their lives far beyond even the natural Eldar lifespan or because of their ghastly means of doing so, the oldest Dark Eldar actually do look every bit as decrepit as one would expect thousands of years old beings would look like. They're just able to hide it with a lot of Magitek based Glamour. One of the reasons the Dark Eldar hate psykers and daemons is because they can see the Dark Eldar for what they really are. Orks are like lobsters, in that they never grow old, they just keep growing and keep getting meaner. Theoretically, they could live like that forever. However, since they're constantly fighting, even when they come in the hundreds of thousands, Orks rarely ever get past thirty, if that. There was once one Ork Boss known only as "The Beast" which was apparently the size of a building, and it had tusks as thick as tree trunks and kicked Nobs around in the same way they kicked around Gretchin. Emperor knows how old that thing was. |

El Goonish Shive: Elves are the offspring of one human parent, and one Immortal parent. While they can be killed, they don't physically age past early adulthood. However, the one elf we have seen so far (who has lived in the same city for decades) hides this by using magic to appear elderly in the presence of muggles. | |

Drowtales: The fae races, such as drow, light elves, and faeries, remain perpetually youthful and strong provided that they live with enough other fae to generate a surplus of mana. Otherwise, they will suffer from mana deprivation and will start to age much like humans do. One audiobook explains that fae do in fact have a finite natural lifespan (implied to be somewhere around 1000 or upwards), but most don't live long enough to ever get close to it, making them effectively this trope to any humans they might run across. It's explained by Quain'tana that the older you get, the more mana you need to sustain your body — thus the very old become increasingly trapped living in cities so there are enough fae around to sustain them. Diva'Ratrika, the Imperial Queen, was most likely aged in the four digits and was essentially stuck in her fortress. | |

In the Indigo series, may be true of Indigo and Grimya—they do not age, but even they don't know whether they can be killed by injury or disease. At one point, Indigo is seriously ill and comatose, and Grimya worries that she will remain delirious forever if the disease "kills" her. (Indigo recovers, and the question is never resolved.) | |

Goblins in the Castle: Two cases, both revealed in Goblins on the Prowl. Fauna. While she looks about eleven or twelve, she finally admits that she's looked the same way for at least seventy years now, she doesn't know why, and she hates it. As a result of the events of the book though, she's freed of the spell keeping her from aging. Edrick guesses that since she was in the same area as he was when he used the Black Stone of Borea to perform the Spell of Stonely Toadliness that was reflected back on him, she got caught up in the backlash and became stuck at her current age, but also lost her memories and ran off into the woods. When he was turned back to flesh and spat out the Stone, she began aging again as normal. The sorceress Sophronia has been visiting the Baron for years, but never looks any older. She later explains that she's put herself in an enchanted sleep for about a year at a time, during which she does not age. |

Eclipse Phase: This is implied to apply by default to biomorphs other than Flats (baseline humans), but even that is beside the point when people can be restored from backup if their body dies.

Doctor Who: Ian and Barbara Chesterton, the original companions, were stated in the show's spinoff The Sarah Jane Adventures to have been the subject of rumours that they haven’t aged between the 1960s and the 2010s. If so, it must have caught up to Ian by 2022, as no attempt was made to hide William Russell's advanced age. The Doctor zig-zags this as most of his incarnations never appear to age despite spending centuries in that particular body, with the Tenth Doctor claiming to Rose that part of the reason he lets go of his companions is because it pains him to see them age when he doesn't. The First and the Eleventh Doctors are the only numbered incarnations to have become elderly, the First being introduced as an old man with a full lifetime behind him and the Eleventh spending over 1200 years in that form before nearly dying of extreme old age. The implication is that Time Lords do age, but it takes an absurd amount of time (and is undone when they regenerate, anyway). The retconned-in War Doctor is mostly shown as an old man near the end of his time, but the partial reflection at the beginning of this incarnation in "Night of the Doctor" is that of a much younger, digitally de-aged John Hurt. It's unclear how long the War incarnation lasted. In Series 9, two characters are transformed into ageless immortals: Ashildr, a 9th century Viking girl, and Clara Oswald, with the latter observing onscreen that she no longer ages or has a heartbeat after being biologically frozen at the moment just before she would have died. She still has to go back to her death eventually to avoid a universe-ending paradox, but she has an indefinite amount of time to put it off. Downplayed in both Doctor Who and Torchwood with Captain Jack Harkness. He initially thought he wouldn't age, but after a long time started to notice he was getting wrinkles and his hair was graying, so he was just ageing very slowly. As in "looks the same age after spending 2000 years buried alive" slowly. The Doctor Who episode "Last of the Time Lords" reveals that Jack may be destined to transform over millions of years into a creature known as the Face of Boe, which is little more than a giant head. |

Changeling: The Lost: Joining the Office of Vizierial Council is one of the only ways in the New World of Darkness to achieve this without major Immortality Immorality. However, the agelessness comes from a magically binding Pledge for the Vizier to be The Good Chancellor to their Changeling rulers — who are usually a quartet who take turns leading and tend to see the others as enemies — and is retroactively revoked if they fail in their duties. | |

Child of the Storm: Doctor Strange looks about 40 odd, and has for at least 1500 years. The sequel later notes that he's actually 500,000 and this is because of the interference of the Time Stone. Natasha who, as per canon, is supposedly biologically immortal as a result of the Infinity Formula, and other recipients of the Infinity Formula, such as Nicholas and Perenelle Flamel. However, Word of God has obliquely hinted that it actually 'just' massively slows the ageing process. The Elves of Alfheim and Svartalfheim are immortal, unless killed, as are the Sidhe of the Nevernever. The Queens of Faerie possess outright immortality unless killed at the right place or time — kill 'em, vaporise 'em, whatever, they'll just come back. Lily as the White Phoenix of the Crown. Sinister hasn't aged in at least a century. Comments he makes about having travelled the Silk Road suggest he's Really 700 Years Old. |

Pushing Daisies: Ned's dog Digby was resurrected when Ned was nine years old. Digby is still alive and well in the present, well beyond the usual lifespan of a Golden Retriever, and hasn't aged a day since Ned brought him back. At one point Ned states that Digby is still at risk of being killed via accidental means, such as getting run over again. Word of God says this is a side effect of Ned's resurrection power and that Chuck, Ned's love interest who he also brought back, is similarly immune to aging. | |

Both Henry and "Adam" from Forever (2014)... sort of. They do not age, however they can be killed, but only with the weapon that caused their original "real" death. Henry's agelessness even becomes a subplot point when it's shown in flashback that his normally-aging second wife Abigail is uncomfortable being seen in public with Henry because she is afraid people will think he is either her son or a hired escort. Also, Adam tries to kill Henry with the same musket pistol that originally killed him, but Henry still comes back to life, possibly negating that hypothesis. One downside is that an immortal can become paralyzed and stay this way for years until someone kills him (Henry does this to Adam to neutralize him in the final episode). | |

Shadowhunters can have a variety of this with vampires, warlocks and other supernatural characters. Raphael looks in his 20s but a vampire pushing a century. He still watches over his "baby" sister, Rosa, who's now a senile 78-year old woman. When she finally dies, Raphael looks over an album of photos of them over the years, Rosa aging while Raphael stays the same. Warlock Magnus is over 1400 years old but maintains a very youthful appearance. It becomes a tearjerking moment when he shows lover Alec a box of mementos from dozens of men Magnus has loved over the centuries and this is the only way he can remember them all. Subverted with the millenia-old Seelie Queen who first shows up as a ten year old girl. However, she later takes on the form of a woman in her early 20s before going back to her child form. |

Superman: In some continuities, Superman doesn't age at all (Batman: The Dark Knight Returns), while in others he and his cousin do, but at a much slower rate than humans due to their Kryptonian heritage, and usually with white hair around their temples and just a few wrinkles to show for it (Earth Two, The Immortal Superman, Kingdom Come, Legion of Super-Heroes: Millennium, Batman Beyond); by the time Superman reaches his 70s or 80s, he looks 50, while Bruce Wayne, compared to Clark and the completely ageless Diana, is elderly with stark white hair, and no longer at his physical peak. In Superman & Batman: Generations, his aging slows exponentially as time goes on, so he looks fifty in his seventies, but maybe seventy in his second millennium. | |

The 27 True Runes of Suikoden grant this type of immortality, in addition to various abilities based on the aspect of existence that the True Rune governs. Bearers like Ted have lived for 300 years. However, another commonality of all the True Runes is their nature to attract conflict. This usually cuts the lives of the bearers short. Arshtat Falenas, for instance, lasted only 2 years. | |

In Maureen Birnbaum, Barbarian Swordsperson, for reasons that are never explained, Maureen does not age at all while off on her adventures. Time passes at the same rate for her as it does back on Earth, but her old friend Bitsy Spiegleman gets older, gets married, and has kids as the series progresses, while Maureen remains a teenager. This is a source of puzzlement to everyone, but Maureen is too busy barbarianing to fret about such details. | |

King Thor: Despite hundreds of thousands — if not millions or even billions — of years having passed, the Goddesses of Thunder look the same as they when they first fought Gorr in Thor: God of Thunder. However, in the And the Adventure Continues/Distant Finale flash-forward where they're shown leading the Avengers, they sport different appearances — Frigg having an eyepatch like her grandfather, and Atli sporting a mohawk. | |

A number of entities in The Sandman (1989), starting with the Endless (who are Anthropomorphic Personifications of primal concepts and can be killed through extraordinary means, but will be reborn as another "aspect" of themselves with a slightly different appearance and personality) on down through gods, angels, and devils, who can die because God Needs Prayer Badly but not because of aging, and down to folks like Hob Gadling, who is otherwise totally human but does not age and cannot die due to a bet between Dream and Death. Some immortals don't even know why they don't age; they just don't. | |

Touhou is filled with beings like this. Lunarians separated themselves from the impurity of the Earth, taking them beyond age and death; they're still vulnerable to death however, which is why they still quarantine themselves from Earth, and when Kaguya obtained Complete Immortality they exiled her. Magicians, both the Mage Species and human mages who become Magicians, don't age and don't need food once they learn the relevant magics, but are still Squishy Wizards. Youkai in general staying the same for centuries is extremely common, though despite being exceptionally durable they aren't indestructible. | |

GURPS uses Unaging (15 character points) for basic agelessness. This means only that the character will never grow older or die of old age, it confers no resistance to disease or harm. Full biological immortality additionally requires immunity to disease and ingested poison (20 points) and Regeneration (regular, radiation only -60%) (15 points) for a total of 50 points. Other forms of immortality require additional powers. Unkillable 2 is common (100 points, can be discounted by achilles heals or hindrances). Radiation tolerance, upgraded regeneration, regrowth, immunity to all metabolic hazards and upgraded regeneration can create nigh invulnerability. Resurrective immortality (Highlander, Ajin) can be pulled off unkillable 1 (highlander, with beheading achilles heal) or unkillable 2 (ajin) and regeneration (between normal and fast for highlander, extreme for ajin) with a custom -60% limiter that makes regeneration work only when a character is dead (-5x HT or fails a death check). Ajin would also have regrowth (only when dead -60%). | |

Coco: The appearances of the spirits of the Land of the Dead are based on what they looked like at the moment of their death, more or less; never really changing aside from cleaning up any potential wounds they may have had (like the many fractures Ernesto would have probably received by being crushed to death by a bell). As a result, Ernesto de la Cruz appears to be in his 40s at most, Héctor himself doesn't appear a day over 21 years old, while Mama Imelda and Papa Julio look much older. When the almost unresponsive and senile Coco dies, she arrives in the Land of the Dead still with white hair and hunched over, but much livelier. She can even walk again. | |

In Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, drinking from the Holy Grail grants you this form of immortality. There's a downside, however: The elderly crusader explains that yes, you live forever - but only so long as you remain in the grail's sacred area. You must drink from the Grail periodically to rejuvenate yourself (hence why Indy and his dad aren't immortal despite drinking from it). Since it can't be taken from its sacred area, obviously you need to stay relatively close to that area to keep drinking from it. There seems to be an element of Age Without Youth involved as well, as the guardian is so frail he can barely stand. | |

He's a member of the Andari race, which means he's blessed with immortality (barring any unfortunate accidents - which, considering his virtually non-existent toughness, could involve being knocked over by a stiff breeze or something). Furthermore, Andari and technology don't mix. | |

In Lost Voices, girls turned into mermaids spend their whole lives at whatever age they were when they were transformed. Catarina is one of the oldest at about sixteen, but some are as young as five or six. Girls younger than that are referred to as larvae, and they aren't taken in by the tribe, but left in the ocean until they're eaten by orcas. Luce is horrified by the prospect of leaving infants to die, but Catarina explains that larvae are impossible to protect for very long, especially since they'll never grow old enough to care for themselves, and they just attract predators. | |

In the case of the Hyper Dimension as shown in Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth2 SISTERS GENERATION, Megadimension Neptunia VII, and Neptunia: Sisters vs Sisters, CPUs are born from the people's faith and use their faith in the form of Shares for strength. As a result, not only are they biologically immortal, but as long as they're sufficiently topped off with Shares and not DePowered they don't have to worry about dying in combat unless against another CPU or a weapon explicitly designed to kill them like Gehaburn. Even then, several comments imply a CPU can relinquish their status and powers in "retirement" and live out a normal life. | |

In the Dolphin Trilogy, sea life doesn't age. John, Vinca, and Syn all have certain adaptations that allow them to leave in the sea and were raised by dolphins, so as long as they don't spend too much time on land, they won't age either. By Destiny and the Dolphins, John should be middle-aged, but he still looks twenty-five. In Daughters of the Dolphin, he meets a dolphin who's millennia old and remembers Ancient Greece. | |

Lorien from Babylon 5 introduces himself as the First One — the very first sentient being ever born in the galaxy. His entire species was originally ageless, though they could be killed by injury or disease. But somewhere along the line, "the universe decided" that living things would need to grow old and die if there was to be any true progress, and future generations aged as normal. | |

Viceroy's Pride: The original purpose of the nanites that Dan is given to help him with magic was actually to make a bunch of rich conspirators immortal. Dan doesn't focus much on his supposed immortality, being more worried about being given untested super-advanced medical technology that apparently hasn't actually had a successful use yet. It does work on him, but from then on his life is so dangerous it's extremely unlikely he'll ever have a chance to truly enjoy his extended lifespan. The elves don't seem to be actually immortal, but considering that they are known to live tens of thousands of years, it's unclear if they can die of old age, or if it's just inevitable for something else to catch up with them. |

In Inuyasha the Movie: Fire on the Mystic Island there is a magical island. There humans and youkai live together and have children together. Because the stay on this island is like a fountain of youth, the humans there do not age. At the time of the plot, however, the island was destroyed, and only six hanyou children survived, who also have not aged for at least fifty years. But because many hanyou are naturally very long-lived, it is unknown if that was the effect of the island. | |

Most incarnations of the Transformers, and good luck with the fatal damage. | |

In Umineko: When They Cry, Ikuko Hachij� is implied to be this and is a bit of an enigma in the series in that regard. In the epilogue, which takes place in the 2030s, she must be easily 70 years old but is every bit as youthful as when she had found Battler/Tooya, which was in 1986. Ange even points it out, saying that "rather than being good with make-up, she had a mystique around her, as if she was an immortal who didn't age". | |

In a rare event chain that requires supernatural events be turned on, a character can attain this in Crusader Kings II's "The Reaper's Due" DLC. They will never age and can laugh off even plagues like The Black Death. Unfortunately, they're likely to slowly lose limbs and sanity over the years, and with the lovely people they're surrounded by, the risk of violent death remains quite high. | |

The Elements of Harmony and the Savior of Worlds: The Flutter Ponies, meaning that after the 1500 years that have passed for Equestria compared to 20 for Earth, those friends of Megan's are still around. The same is true of the Princess Ponies, but in their case it's because of the Heart of Ponyland sustaining them. Apparently so do the Bushwoolies that serve as their honor guards, and Katrina and Rep. | |

The Amber Royalty from The Chronicles of Amber are mostly this. They are quite tough and regenerate better than humans, but it's a very slow process (it takes four years to grow back burnt out eyes, for example). Serious wounds definitely can kill them, which happens on several occasions. | |

Captain America ages far more slowly due to the super soldier serum in his veins, but can die like anyone else. His ex-sidekick, Bucky Barnes, was injected with the same Infinity Formula (in fact, it was the last of it) as Nick Fury, but is as vulnerable as your average soldier. | |

The El-Aurians, introduced in Star Trek: The Next Generation, can be killed, but they age very slowly otherwise. Guinan has the same physical appearance (barring time-appropriate clothing and hairdo) between the 19th and 24th century. They are revealed to be able to choose whether they physically age or not in Star Trek: Picard.note The Doylist reason was to justify Guinan having aged along with her actress. | |

Nearly everyone in Dragon Knights except the humans, as the other races seem to live on endlessly without aging past their early twenties. Garfaxy is an ordinary human who lives immortally thanks to his master and employer Kharl mixing him a pill to take every hundred years, but he also gets injured and Kharl has to occasionally tend to his wounds. | |
