Currently, our explanation for Immortality type 7 says:
Characters who cannot die due to technically being already dead, often overlapping with other forms of immortality.

I'd like to add the following sentence: This includes characters who can keep existing as spiritual entities upon dying.

It's fairly common for some characters to maintain a form of independence on the material plane, whether they "survive" as ghosts, souls, disembodied minds etc.. but aren't dead yet (although they might have been).

I was thinking it could also include those who can return to life as undeads, although it may already be a form of resurrection, and thus be covered by type 4.
 
Type 7 in itself never really felt like Immortality; it's just everyone who has it also has another type to go with it. Also. Immortality types specifically refers to those who already are undead as opposed to those who come form the dead; though they technically have it once they come back as the living dead.

But I suppose this makes sense in the long run.
 
Yeah this is fine, I feel as though people already used it in this way but I suppose being specific doesn't hurt.

It does, thus it's better to specificy it on the page itself.

Anyway, since everyone agress, I'm doing the changes and close this thread.
