Okay so after looking at all the possible immortalities in the wiki, I thought of a new type of immortality that is possible in fiction and quite a few characters have in fact which I am going to be giving examples for later on this post.
Essentially, the type of immortality I am referring to is a paradoxical immortality. Essentially existing without the ability of being killed because your whole existence or life/death per say is based on a paradox. Allow me to expand with some examples.
Dr. Monty for instance on Black Ops 3, or even Richtofen. The only reason to why Richtofen was able to stay on after they defeated the apothycons and the timeline fixed itself was because of the blood they gathered from mob of the dead; which was a reality that had now closed. And thus; he was not killed after everything fixed itself because he had something in his system from a reality that did not exist which created a paradox in the perfect world.
Another great example is Dr. Monty; he is unable to die unless somehow the paradoxical loop is fixed, which was done and thus he was "killed" at least from our understanding.
Another more popular example from a more known piece of fiction would be Zamasu (specifically merged Zamasu) from dragonball. Essentially, the merged form of Zamasu was half mortal half immortal, and thus when he was "killed" a paradox formed. He should have been dead since he was mortal, but he also should not have been killed which he is immortal and thus he started multiplying endlessly without the ability of being "killed" through regular means.
There is probably other examples within fiction you guys will be able to give but I definitely think this should be a thing in the wiki since from my read I don't think this type of immortality fits on any category without being downplayed or overplayed. Let me know guys of what you think!
