History Main / TheAgeless

* ''Film/XMenFilmSeries''

** The black [[{{Miko}} miko]] Tsubaki from ''Manga/{{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.

** In ''Anime/InuYashaTheMovieFireOnTheMysticIsland'' there is a magical island. There humans and [[{{Youkai}} 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.

** ''Audioplay/StrikersSoundStageX'' 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.

* Comicbook/DoctorStrange got into a fight with Death itself, accepted its inevitability, surrendered to it, and CameBackStrong. He is told that, as a result, "death may only come from without, in battle -- and not from within."

* In the world of ''Felarya'', ''everyone'' has this due to the magical properties of the world. Unfortunately for those who come to Felarya seeking immortality, it it [[DeathWorld very easy to die there.]]

* ''Franchise/{{Superman}}'': In some continuities, Superman doesn't age at all (''ComicBook/BatmanTheDarkKnightReturns''), while in others he and [[ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} 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 ([[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfComicBooks Earth Two]], ''ComicBook/TheImmortalSuperman'', ''ComicBook/KingdomCome'', ''Legion of Super-Heroes: Millennium'', ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond''); 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 ''ComicBook/SupermanAndBatmanGenerations'', his aging slows exponentially as time goes on, so he looks fifty in his seventies, but maybe seventy in his second millennium.

* ''Fanfic/HarmonysWarriors'': Twilight Sparkle and Shining Armor, who both appear the same age in ''[[Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger Captain Equestria]]'' (which is set in the 1940s), ''[[Film/XMenFirstClass X-Questrians: First Class]]'' (set in the 1970s) and all the present day stories. Apparently, this is due to [[Main/SuperSerum a serum]] Twilight had created.

* Sol Badguy, the BountyHunter AntiHero [[HeroAntagonist Antagonist]] of the ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'' games, is implied to have been born sometime in TheEighties. Given the time-frame, that would make him easily 170 years old. [[HumanoidAbomination But that can't be right, can it?]]

* In ''Videogame/StarCraftIIWingsOfLiberty'', 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 BodyHorror. Instead, he figures out how to apply it to metals to make self healing buildings. However, ''Videogame/StarcraftIIHeartOfTheSwarm'' clarifies that ''all'' organisms age, including Zerg, even if they don't die from it.

* Rosalina from the Franchise/SuperMarioBros series is the powerful guardian of the cosmos, and has physically remained a young woman for centuries or more. Despite this, she can still be harmed by common enemies when she's a playable character.

* ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'' is filled with beings like this. [[SpaceElves 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 CompleteImmortality they exiled her. Magicians, both the MageSpecies and human mages who become Magicians, don't age and don't need food once they learn the relevant magics, but are still {{Squishy Wizard}}s. {{Youkai}} in general staying the same for centuries is extremely common, though despite being exceptionally durable they aren't indestructible.

* ''Videogame/{{Warcraft}}'':

* Sasori from ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'', because he turned himself into a puppet.

* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'': Due to a combination of the natural immense longevity of sea-dweller trolls and her latent Life powers, the troll impresses is functionally immortal -- she will never age and wither, and will remain youthful and strong until and unless killed by violence.
