Immortals
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica]
Immortality is living as though you could live forever. It is a state of non aging, disease free living, in which all the seeds of human potential have access to fertile ground. During their extended lifetimes, immortals are likely to amass huge amounts of wealth. However, immortals must maintain a masquerade, the illusion that there is nothing strange about them. This can be difficult and can involve having to leave worldly assets behind. One way around this can be to leave your goods to children, "die" yourself, only to return after a suitable interval to assume the identity of the child and claim their inheritance. This is probably the best way of ensuring that an immortal doesnt have to give up whatever worldly possessions he has earned when he has to move on, in order to prevent his true nature being discovered.
Were an immortals secret to become known, the results could be potentially disastrous. Imagine what would happen were a pharmaceutical company to discover that immortals exist...they would stop at nothing in an attempt to discover the secret of immortality. Therefore, an immortal character must be careful to guard his secret, and maintain the facade of normality.
