===Campaign Information===

====Playing an Immortalist====

'''Combat:''' As the base class. 

'''Advancement:''' Immortalists come from every domain of spellcasting. When an immortalist takes upon this path, he usually finishes it. Multiclassing would only delay their ultimate goal.

'''Resources:''' Immortalists gain support depending on their moral outlook and former classes; an immortalist wizard should still have the support of his guild and an immortalist cleric should still be in good status with his church.

====Immortalists in the World====

{{quote|I have forever turned away the Grim Reaper himself! Do you think you scare me?|orig=Gi, Human Wizard Immortalist}}

An immortalist is a spellcaster who succeeded at avoiding death, forever. They may take any form, whether the PCs' mentors or the archvillain. 

'''NPC Reactions:''' Immortalists tend to be unpopular among followers of nature; NPCs like druids tend to hate them for playing with the natural cycle. However, unlike undeath, immortalists still retain their former race's basic features. Immortalists may live multiple lives, using persisted [[SRD:Disguise Self|Disguise Self]] or other spells to live normal lives.  

====Immortalist Lore====

Characters with ranks in [[SRD:Knowledge Skill|Knowledge]] (Religion) can research immortalists to learn more about them.  When a character makes a skill check, read or paraphrase the following, including information from lower DCs.

{| class="d20" {{#vardefine: odd | 0}}
|+ [[SRD:Knowledge Skill|Knowledge]] (Religion)
! DC || class="left" | Result
|- 
| 11 || class="left" | Immortalists are not a myth.
|- 
| 16 || class="left" | Immortalists use true naming and arcane or divine magic to erase death from their true name, a powerful process that makes them effectively impervious to final death.
|- 
| 21 || class="left" | An immortalist who finally achieves his goal can never effectively be killed. Thus, they simply return once each year, no matter the circumstance of death.
|- 
| 26 || class="left" | Info on particular Immortalist.

====Immortalist in the Game====

Immortalists deviate from the natural cycle. They tend to be unpopular amongst druids, inevitables and non-player characters. An NPC immortalist is usually a villain using his immortality to get what they want, when they want. An immortalist villian, however, may give the player the feeling that they can never win (Especially against a 5th level immortalist). If an evil immortalist cannot achieve his goal because of some heroes, he can simply wait and outlive them. 

'''Adaptation:''' Immortalism fits in any generic magical campaign, unless magic is weird in your world you won't need extensive adaptation.
