Though each Immortal is a unique individual, they do have a few commonalities
* ArchaicWeaponForAnAdvancedAge: Andy, Nicky, & Joe were all born and trained in a time before the invention of guns, and as such they each carry a bladed weapon with them in combat.
* BeenThereShapedHistory: The Immortals spend a hefty chunk of their time involving themselves in human conflicts, trying to help out those in need where they can. Copley's board shows the full extent of their effects on human history
* CulturedWarrior: They are all hyper-competent warriors, but are also shown to have an appreciation for the finer things in life.
* FamilyOfChoice: More like family of necessity. Due to their circumstance, they can only really form emotional bonds with each other, seeing as they will eventually outlive everyone else in their lives. That being said, after having been together for 100s of years, there is genuine love and familial affection in their relationships with each other.
* HealingFactor: Though their immortality relies on them being able to literally come back from the dead, they do also have an impressively advanced healing factor. Nile manages to heal an open break in her leg in about a minute, and Joe survives multiple stab wounds by healing in seconds.
* Really700YearsOld: Apart from Nile, who has only discovered her immortality, the rest of the group ranges in age from 250 to nearly 7000, though they all look to be in their 30s or 40s.

!!The Immortals
[[folder:Andromache of Scythia]]
->'''Played by:''' Creator/CharlizeTheron
Andromache -- she goes by "Andy" -- is the oldest of the immortals, and the leader of the group. She's profoundly cynical, having become convinced over her very long life that nothing she's done has ever made anything better or made any sort of difference.
----
* AdaptationalIntelligence: Of a technological sort -- she's no idiot in the comic, but she profoundly unused to technology and barely knows how to use an old flip-phone, let alone a smart one. Indeed, the comic has Nile [[spoiler: realizing Booker is the mole when he's able to "gather" information off a laptop inside an underground bunker]] as Andy doesn't grasp that "just because you have a computer doesn't automatically mean you're on the Internet". In the film, she much more tech-savvy, easily using a smartphone and modern weapons.
* AnAxeToGrind: She uses a labrys (a double-headed axe) in battle, in addition to her guns. When Merrick gets a hold of her labrys, she settles for using a regular fireman's axe to fight mooks until she gets it back.
* ArchaicWeaponForAnAdvancedAge: Like all the pre-gunpowder immortals, she tends use an old bladed weapon instead of or alongside firearms -- in her case, a ''labrys'' battle-axe.
* BeenThereShapedHistory: Andy assumes nothing she does matters, but Copley's research shows that she has saved numerous lives who in turn aid others or have descendants who do, such as a woman whose daughter created a groundbreaking diabetes treatment or the man who prevented the 1983 Soviet false alarm incident from escalating into a full nuclear war.
-->'''Copley''': She saves a life and two, three generations later, we reap the benefits.\\
'''Nile''': She's in it... she can't see it.
* CastingGag: Charlize Theron as Andromache of Scythia. A famous Amazonian warrior from Greek myths was named Andromache, and archeological findings related to said myths were found in the modern-day locations corresponding to ancient Scythia. Theron famously refused to play the Queen of the Amazons in ''Film/WonderWoman2017''.
* FeelingTheirAge: Her immortality has been gradually wearing Andy down, as she feels like nothing she's done has ever really made a difference.
* TheFogOfAges: She's gradually lost memory of her early years -- she doesn't know how old she is beyond "too old", and doesn't remember what her mother and sisters looked like.
* GodGuise: She was worshipped as a living goddess in antiquity.
* TheOlderImmortal: She's by far the eldest of the immortals, and was so even during the previous generation. As a consequence, she's unquestionably the leader of the group.
* OneManArmy: On multiple occasions, Andy goes up against several teams of heavily armed soldiers and mows through them like grass.
* SaveThisPersonSaveTheWorld: Andy's actions, as Copley discovered, have done this over and over again through history -- her actions have saved hundreds, if not thousands, of seemingly inconsequential people who years down the road either performed a great service to humanity or had children or grandchildren who did the same. Andy, notably, is entirely unaware of this for most of the film, as her policy of avoiding repeat jobs or interacting long-term with non-immortals kept her from realizing what was going on.
* SurvivorGuilt: She was separated from [[spoiler:Quynh during the witch hunts, and considers not going back for her a betrayal even though she spent ''decades'' trying to find her]].
* TechnicianVersusPerformer: Andy is the performer, banking on her immortality and years of combat with acrobatics and lots of violence, while Nile is the technician who's only just recently gained immortality and was trained more to make combat encounters quick and efficient with headshots.
* TimeAbyss: She's millennia old -- she no longer remembers precisely how much -- and predates Greek civilization, the ancient Scythian people and written language in Europe.
-->'''Greg Rucka:''' "She predates Greek civilization by... at least 2500 years or so. She's almost 7000 years old. To actually put that in perspective, that means she lived for almost 5000 years before the Common Era, or AD. She was a myth even to Herodotus. Scythia wasn't a place when she was actually born and learning to ride and leading her people as a Warrior-God."
* WorldsBestWarrior: She's a fantastically deadly combatant, and has "forgotten more ways to kill than entire armies will ever learn".

Yusuf -- "Joe" -- is a veteran of the Crusades, during which he met and fell in love with Nicky after the two killed each other multiple times.
----
* ArchaicWeaponForAnAdvancedAge: Like all the pre-gunpowder immortals, he tends use an old bladed weapon instead of or alongside firearms -- in his case, an Arabian scimitar.
* BattleCouple: He and Nicky are lovers and mercenary comrades-in-arms -- and have been for a good few hundred years, too.
* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: He and Nicky, handcuffed and chained to the floor of a truck, [[spoiler:still manage to kill their entire group of captors barehanded]].
* SlapSlapKiss: UpToEleven, as Nicky and Joe killed each other multiple times during the first crusade before falling in love.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: He's ''not'' happy that [[spoiler:Booker is helping them escape Merrick, but rightly stifles his anger when Andy points out there will be time for recriminations ''after'' they're safe]].

----
