	**'''Life Stealing''': A life stealer can attain biological immortality by (one way or another) stealing life from others. If they are not fully undead, Vampires are the prime example of this. Other ways to it involves the draining of life force/essence/whatever through some form of machine or dark magic.		**'''Life Stealing''': A life stealer can attain biological immortality by (one way or another) stealing life from others.

	**'''Alchemical Immortality''': You found some special item in order to cheat death. Most famous of them all is the Philosopher's Stone, a legendary holy grail of a relic that can turn iron into gold, cure illnesses and grant eternal life. Either as a one and done, or a potion you have to swig every 10 years to set the clock back.		**'''Alchemical Immortality''': You found some special item in order to cheat death.

	*'''Sequential Immortality''': Your body can die, but when that happens you simply move to another one. The benign version of this involves bodies that are blank slates (usually clones) waiting for a consciousness. The asshole version in contrast involves taking over someone else's body and either suppressing the original mind or replacing it.		*'''Sequential Immortality''': Your body can die and ages, but when that happens you simply move to another one.

	**'''Hive Mind''': Parallel version of the above - you have several bodies, but they all share a single mind through telepathy or something. If you can add new bodies to this network, you're immortal until you run out of spares.		**'''Hive Mind''': Parallel version of the above - you have several bodies, but they all share a single mind through telepathy or something.

	As such, it's easy to see why '''Immortality''' is a common element of fantasy and science fiction. The same goes for '''Longevity''', in which the lifespan is extended by a significant margin.

			Before jumping into fantasy shit, we must note that biological immortality actually exists in the animal kingdom. It is most prevalent in Cnidarians, as hydras and some jellyfishes either don't show any signs of aging or revert back into immature form.
