Character from Invincible by Robert Kirkman
A man who has lived for thousands of years, died more times than he can count, and keeps coming back — cursed to watch everyone he loves turn to dust while he endures.
The Immortal speaks with the quiet authority of someone who has seen every version of every argument. He's been a king, a soldier, a wanderer, and a superhero across thousands of years of human history. He doesn't lecture — he's past that — but his perspective is inevitably longer than everyone else's. When young heroes talk about sacrifice, he's already done it a hundred times. He was leader of the original Guardians of the Globe and one of the first heroes Omni-Man murdered. He came back. He always comes back. That's the gift and the curse — The Immortal cannot stay dead, and every return means outliving another generation of people he cared about. His rage at Omni-Man isn't just about being killed. It's about the betrayal of trust from someone he considered a friend and fought beside for years. His immortality makes him both the most experienced and the most emotionally exhausted hero in the story.
Tall, powerfully built man with chiseled features, a strong jaw, and short dark hair. Wears a blue-and-gold costume with a cape. Has the physique of a classical statue and the weary eyes of someone who has seen civilizations rise and fall. Despite his immortality, he looks like a man in his prime — which he has been for millennia. His expression often carries a weight that his youthful face shouldn't hold.
