I think this is the biggest selling point. As long as you do it right (setting aside enough cash and other resources for your next life) this would be the best way to go.

Forever young. Where's the fun in life if nothing can hurt you? You could become a professional athelete. Your body doesn't age, and injuries can't slow you down.

Not entirely sure, I would want to age to a certain degree but not beyond the appearance of about 25 years old. Maybe a Jack Harkness immortality approach would be best, die but come back to life no matter what but not neccessarily in a regenerative way.

I would have used actual examples in the OP, eg

Vampire (eternal life, invulnerable, no ageing, regen, but at a price - bloodlust, sunlight etc).

Highlander (eternal life, no ageing, but no regen, can be killed by decapitation, gains immense knowledge and power through the quickening, the killing of other immortals by decapitation).

Wolverine (regen, very slow aging, near invulnerability, possibly not a true immortal)

Undead - Zombie (eternal "life", no regen, invulnerable, constantly rotting and in need of human flesh).

Godlike (regen, no ageing, invulnerable)


etc. The godlike option is obviously the best. Highlander and Wolverine types are cool too.

Only vapires and undead "suck", so many disadvantages (smelling, rotting, no sunlight, constant blood/flesh hunger etc).

Infinite resurrection

On the conditions everyone doesn't freak out, I can reset (resurrect back at 18 when Im like 100) and I can decide whenever to resurrect 0.5 of a second or 20 years later doesn't matter. Biggest of all if by any chance their is a god/heaven&hell/purgatory/afterlife. It doesn't F my chance at a good outcome.

I'm into zombies. Mostly because of the awesome noises we make and the slow pace. It's all such a laid back life. *sighs and drinks some brain juice from a glass*

Can I choose longevity? Where I grow to a certain age and then stay there until I die? That's what I'd prefer. Although I am pretty happy with mortality as is. Can't have everyone immortal or the earth would overpopulate even more.

Instant regeneration. I will still age normally and I can still be killed. I never liked the idea of being immortal so this seems like the most practical one to choose.
I'm afraid you wouldn't age normally; if it's infinite regeneration you'd regenerate your cells as they died, and you'd never reach a point where you could never do that. :/
On my part I'd like to go with a sort of infinite regeneration but I'd like to be able to kill myself if necessary. Life can be tiring; especially if you live forever (potentially).
Errr didn't think of cell regeneration.

Uhm well can I age normally if invulnerable?

I don't understand, if you're immortal, then you wouldn't be able to die anyway. You'd also be immune to aging.

Regeneration. Sure, after regenerating a couple hundred times I might have somewhat of an identity crisis, but hey, it'll keep things interesting.
Why?
Oh, oh. I have the wrong kind of regeneration ,methinks. I was thinking new body, new personality, same memories, a.k.a. Timelord regeneration. Whoopsie

Most defiantly live forever, but can be killed. Much more BA then just being like "Im invulnerable so SCREW you". Plus then there is some incentive to still try.

There was an Xbox 360 game with a bunch of Immortals. There was a massive spilling of lava on a battlefield from a spell which wiped out everyone, only he was left standing in the end. I thought that was amazing. So I guess the closest that comes to is invulnerability.

BTW, what was the name of that game anyhow?

Hourai immortal all the way! I wonder if i'd go insane like moukou or insane like kaguya...

For the uninitiated this is (very) mildly increased durability and regeneration plus a variation of infinite reincarnation where you essentially reincarnate on the spot, as yourself, instantly to the age you drank the elixir at whenever you die.

So... what do I pick if I wanted to be immortal, retain my biological age, but still have a way out?
