A lot of you guys have been saying that 'Immortality' is NOT the same thing as 'Invincibility'. In popular fiction that's definitely true and my 5 minute Google search for the definition couldn't figure that out. The term seems quite loose and on some occasions it could even mean the same thing. But to be more accurate consider this video to be 'Immortality AND Invincibility at LVL 1' instead, which funnily enough would have been a better title.

_"Becoming immortal is easy! You just have to think _*_really_*_ hard about not dying"_ - A beholder, moments before turning into a lich

Instrunctions unclear: stuck in an Isekai anime inside a magic wand

Step 1: Become the DM's boyfriend / girlfriend for the duration of the campaign Step 2: Repeatedly tell them how much you love your character And there you go, you're basically immortal.

Just be a cleric.Not immortal but it’s fun to watch the DM try to come up with a reasonable explanation as to why 20 black dragons are fighting me alone

“The demon god Orcus knew a word so powerful, it could kill gods.” Orcus: *SIMP* Everyone: My time has come

By the same logic: be a warforged, find a hole in a crypt, build yourself a sturdy coffin, and peace out of the party forever. With the same luck, no you will find your hidey-hole.

Player: I cast wish! Me: What do you wish for? Player: I want to become immortal! Me: Define. Player: I cannot die. Me: You sure you want that? Player: Why wouldn’t I? Me: Do you? Player: Of course! Me: As you wish for immortality, you feel your soul infuse with the cosmos, your body dissipates as it becomes one with it. Make a new character. Player: *leaves*

I literally just got the Wand of Security for 30 gp. I don’t think the dm knows the power.

I love assassination classroom, I really miss that series in general.

i had to ban immortality in my Table top RPG, once a dude is immortal he will just solve all problems by throwing himself out of the window

Me: ''abuses the rod of security'' DM: Do you want to die from a heart attack?

The Rod of Security is more like "Ay man, I'm off the clock, I gotta GO!" you got 200 days/number of people you bring with you. You can't create an exp farm with it, but you *can* escape forever if you have more than one rod at your disposal. Just make sure you use it in a place that will be safe to come back to when the timer runs out. But then...you're not really playing D&D, you're playing Mary Sue's Vacation Paradise

I always saw immortality as just being able to live forever instead of invincibility.

For those of you who dont know, assassination classroom currently has a spin off where it takes place in a dnd campaign

How to be immortal: Homebrew and a backstory that makes it a punishment

Chain mail made of rings of regeneration, that self-repairs.

I've just looked for the rod in my DMG (cause omg why did I never notice this thing?!) and found one flaw in the rod's design. Two really, but the second is more about interpretation. So anyway, the 200 days thing is more like its maximum if you solo the paradise. According to the text "Visitors remain in the paradise for up to 200 days DIVIDED by the number of creatures present (round down)." So what this means is that if you bring along at least one other person with you, the two of you will only be there for a 100 days. Four people will make it 50 days. Ten people will gives you a 20 day vacation. If you dare bring even on person over a hundred, that'll be rounded down to a single day. So if you want to stay safe longer, better get used to being alone. The second flaw I see is the ten day recharge. There is two ways to interpret this. One is that is ten days after first activating the rod, or ten days after time runs out on the rod. Chances are that it is the latter that's the correct interpretation. This means that you are both aging and vulnerable in-between 10 day intervals every 200 days of paradise. You aren't truly immortal, just delaying eventual death. With some math... I estimate that it'll take... about 21 years real time for you to physical age 1 year when constantly using the rod. Even if you've been using the rod since you started adventuring at 18, you will only last approximately 1700 years before you just become too old.

Ahhh ... I remember a character wishing for Immortality. And I was ready for the wish as a DM (I even set it up as the person was being an real arse in the games in recent times and he needed a good slap). You see there is an old tale relating how within the robes and bones of death, there is stored the eternally damned, always part of death, never free, existing for all time forced to watch and suffer in isolation from the rest of the world. So the wish is made and Death Appears holding a scroll. After an initial panic he loudly proclaims "Halt, I have not come to take your souls, only to erase this ones name (pointing at the character) from the scrolls of the dead". And so he opens the scroll and with a flourish uses a quilled pen to remove the person name. There is a flash and they are gone. Death turned to leave and of course someone blurts out where is x?! So Death turned back and opens his robe enough for those near to see within the robe, apparently screaming and fighting some barrier they cannot see. "He has been made a part of me. He shall exist as long as I exist and hence is immortal, as requested". And then he turned and faded away....

Funny homebrew story here: One of my bois created a character which was immortal, but was so scared of death that he never found out, and the goal of our party was to never let his character know he is immortal. So basically we did normal adventure stuff, and the goal of our party was to keep one of our memebers from finding out he was immortal.

I had never noticed this item. This is clever, and I'm adding it to my wizard immortality method. Mix Magic Jar, Sequester, Clone, and Demiplane, and call me in 8 billion years.

Level 20 necromancer with boons of immortality and high magic. The spells demiplane, clone, wish, and time stop. Rod of Security. Pretty much impossible to kill, and if you are killed then you awaken in a clone of yourself in a perfectly safe personal demiplane. From there, travel to your Rod of Security demiplane. You can then ride out however long you want in the rods demiplane. Return to the prime material plane when you want, with everyone assuming you're dead. If people recognize you, then wish they forget they saw you.

I'll post this before any of you can: *DO ONE PIECE IN D&D!* *DO RE-ZERO IN D&D!* *DO NARUTO IN D&D!* *DO DEMON SLAYER IN D&D!* *DO GOBLIN SLAYER IN D&D!* DO me in D&D ;) *DO KONOSUBA IN D&D AGAIN!* *DO ATTACK ON TITAN IN D&D!* *DO OVERLORD IN D&D!* *DO SWORD ART ONLINE IN D&D!* *DO SANS UNDERTALE IN D&D!* *DO SHREK IN D&D!* *DO D&D ANIMATORS IN D&D!* *DO BOKU NO PICO IN D&D!* *DO BOFURI IN D&D!* *DO SOUL EATER IN D&D!* *DO NO GAME NO LIFE S2 IN D&D!* *DO POKEMON IN D&D* *DO BOKU NO HERO ACADEMIA IN D&D!* Now all of your requests are invalid.

"How to make your DM's cry?" Hyperbolic time chamber... That is how.

One of my characters got a rod of security once but the DM ruled that it only led to a monster secure cabin in Barovia.

Actually god are technically immortal. Even after they die they continue to feel and even dream. A god can never truly die, but they could be destroyed. Also the god of the gods, Ao, could, if he wanted to, just decide that you are dead forever, no if, and ors about it, you are DEAD

The best option I could find without magic items is a high level elf wizard knowing demiplane and clone use the demiplane to stash clones and you are as close as I could find

Clearly you've never combined all the ideas into one. Now I know how to be immortal forever

Vegeta: hmmmmm, I see now *furiously takes notes*

Honestly if I had the "Rod of Security" I would have my character make dumb copies of all the people he hated and kill them over and over again when he gets mad... Or have a heram world...

In 3E Psionics handbook there was a spell that the psionic imbued a gem and when they died their soul would be transferred to the gem. The gem then became the psionics body and would eventually grow a new body for the psionic. There was also quintessence which was liquified time. Anything fully emerged in it was trapped in unaging time. Creatures trapped would also stop in time. And a spell to swap minds with another creature. All of these were easily aquired by telepath. My idea was to capture sentient living creatures. Entomb them in quintessence while bound. Then when the character died and appeared in the gem. A simple telepathic lever would drain and clean the entombed creature, followed by a body swap spell. Instant self resurrection. There was no limit to the number of enspelled gems that could be used for this. So my plan was just to build hidden tombs everywhere. Then resurrect at the nearest one when things went bad.

I had an immortal character in a campaign once. Like full on immortality. The downside? My character loses a random thing every time I died. My DM (my incredibly crazy ex-boyfriend) made a spin the wheel type of thing for it. Whenever I died, he would spin the wheel. the things were: Lose a skill. Lose ALL of my gold. Lose an item. Lose a teammate's item. Lose the entire Party's gold. GAIN a random debuff. Comeback at 1HP. (The best possible outcome, as I was a healer) Lose a level. Lose 5 levels. TOTAL RESET! (I would comeback at level one, with the same weapon and armor I started with. 0.01% chance of happening.) And Finally, the Eldritch force keeping me alive would force one of my party members to sacrifice themselves. All to be an immortal healer, who gave up his humanity and soul to a Lovecraftian scale Eldritch horror. Was terrifically terrible, if I do say so myself.

When you go into a goblin cave at level 1, but is immortal.... The Goblins: Yea, this guy is our boss now.

Koro sensei: I'm immortal Saitama: Okay Alucard: 😈 Kars: *posing menacingly

korosensai has one flaw in his immortality, he has a giant heart and loves every single one of his pupils. even the worthless sidecharacters that dont do anything.

Well, you can become a Lich and make your phylactery become indestructible. If you have the Rod of Security, you can make a undead mage that uses the rod and goes with your phylactery to the paradise so its became unreachable while you are in the normal plane

Backup plan: make tons of clones

I appreciate the Assassination Classroom music in the background. Thank you.

Unrelated but... imagine this: a bard playing an air guitar

It being a demiplane wouldn't it technically have the same worries as every portal to another dimension? Like technically something from the astral sea could come through your bag of holding. This would just probably be a Great Old One lunching on your soul

Blaine: *lists anime's that we can't request anymore* Me: don't underestimate the power of us weebs! Me again: do Symphogear in D&D!

I got the wish card from the deck of many without even knowing what the deck was, then i wished for infinite wishes, and my dm let it happen, they dont limit the power of it, i legit got summoned by a god for making myself invulnerable to smite and warned not to intervene with any more godly things.

About that invulnerability one; you can’t cast spells while taking a long rest to recover your spell slots.

Or you can play a circle of the moon Druid, they bacically never age and have infinate HP because of how wild shape doesn’t hurt your HP, and 20th level means you have infinate wild shapes, and it doesn’t impact your aging. So overall even if somebody did manage to turn you back, well they have a level 20 Druid to fight and that ain’t happening. Plus you can take he boon of immortality

All you have to do is bring the dm's favorite snack, and boom you can do whatever.

Depending on how you define immortal then the spell Clone would qualify.

Me: *Mmm i did not know about that anime, ill checl it out* Also me 45 episodes later in one day and criying of feels since yesterday: *You monster"

I love assassination classroom and I love the fact that you referenced it

Did he forget about lich tophat and sovereign glue

"Because we could be immortals, immortals. Just not for long, for long, and live with me forever now. You pull the blackout curtains down, just not for long, for long. Immor- immortals."

I think training with the rod of security wouldn’t be that game breaking. Remember, the Dm can change the world however he wants while you’re in there.

I love the art in this episode {probably because I love Assassination Classroom so much} Especially the group of wizards with dispel magic

At level 20 Mystics don't age and are so broken that they might as well be unkillable.

Do Shrek in D&D

Honestly now that I've started to watch this channel's content instead of shying away from it I'm starting to enjoy it also, cute all of you

DM: what do you want to do Blorg? Blorg: I carry My unconscious comrade away from the dragon while I am still bleeding from my side because of the dragon follower's spear. DM: what about you Theodre? Me: Imma take another sip of my alcoholic beverage of my choosing. Party:

Player: *uses wish* i want immortality DM: *deletes player's character* you cant die if you dont exist

It's really easy to get you out of the demiplane made with this item. If someone really wanted to kill you, they could just use Gate (9th level spell) to do it. "When you cast this spell, you can speak the name of a specific creature (a pseudonym, title, or nickname doesn't work). If that creature is on a plane other than the one you are on, the portal opens in the named creature's immediate vicinity and draws the creature through it to the nearest unoccupied space on your side of the portal." So... you need to try better to stay alive. You'd need only 2 spells. One lvl 9, and one lvl 8. Then you'd be immortal Each day cast Demiplane to create new Demiplane and put some random things there, so no one can get there without knowing everything inside. "Additionally, if you know the Nature and contents of a demiplane created by a casting of this spell by another creature, you can have the shadowy door connect to its demiplane instead." Then you need to use Wish to duplicate effect of 8th or lower lever spell (no risk of not being able to cast Wish again or it doing something else) to duplicate effect of Clone With Wish you don't need components, co you cast Clone for free instead of 3000gp each time With that you have one Clone per each day since you've got Wish. And no one can get to all of the Clones if they don't know content of your Demiplane (so that's why you fill it with random things)

I'm sorry but Assassination Classroom is so good and its my fave anime and thank you for representing it :D So excited by this video talking about it

Nice job with the assasination classroom visuals

Waiiiit! The video is called ”IMMORTALITY at level 1 in DND”

Im actually watching assasinasion class room right now

Great video!!

I'm shocked that you didn't bring up lichdom or the clone spell. Although both have their weaknesses and a determined group of individuals could figure out those weaknesses, they both make the user functionally immortal.

The only counter DM: "no"

Honestly when my party gets near the end of our campaign, after clearing the final bbeg I'd have them roll to see if they find anything good, tbh I'd probably give them as a final good job you did it reward for beating the campaign

I currently hold one of those rods and after watching this vid, I'm honestly getting my rogue to lv 20, thanks

You could also obtain an item that gives you a enhanced luck stat to be difficult to take down but not impossible.

I know the dictionary says immortal means you can't be killed, but a lot of people- especially in fantasy and sci-fi circles- distinguish immortality from invincibility (immortality having the boon's definition of meaning you don't age but can still be harmed physically and invincibility meaning the definition you used)

Level 20 Barbarian Zealot. You can't die while you're raging. At level 20 you get infinite rage. However there are a few things that can still kill you one being old age which can be solved with you get the boon of immortality. Drownding maybe? I'm not sure how the rules work but that can be solved by just picking a race that can breathe underwater. 6 days of not being able to find any healing. Because you would die of exhaustion I'm pretty sure you can't sleep while you're raging. And last and probably the most common being hit by a spell that has a death effect such as disintegrate or finger of death that specifically calls out when you are reduced to 0 hit points. however I'm not sure if you're already at 0 hit points if this spells will affect you so... DM decision?

Thanks for the video!

1:49 honestly this is hilarious and I love it. 21 get out of death free cards!

Hi Blaine!!! Great video :) as a DM of over a year now, Yeah no party of mine is getting this below 12th level hahaha. Lots of love from your 125th fan

Rod of security I will make my own World full of dungeons and dragons then invite the party there with me as the new dm..

I liked the artstyle very much :3

The 10 day timer on the rod starts when the demiplane closes, you need two rods to accomplish your goal.

4:28 How about becoming the god OF immortality? ;-)

Could also do a warforged zealot Barbarian. With the zealot you literally cannot die while raging, and with Sentry's rest you cannot get pulled out of Rage with the sleep spell.

I just watch the entire series of assassination classroom so now it time to finally watch this video

nice videos... budd now i wanna D&D even more..

Thank God I can now know a way for my players to have immortality but never give it to them just to get a small amount of satisfaction. Cheers Blaine. 👍

Just stand next to a grave cleric

I love how he uses Kuro Sensei for describing immortality

I love that korosensei and assaination classroom is used a lot in this video

About the wish spell: "The Marid flowed out of the flask like water, and said: "Your wish is my command". The halfling, overjoyed, wished for immortality, so the Marid polymorphed him into a fish, which flopped around humorously until, finally, it expired. It's a cautionary tale that has survived through the ages, so I guess the halfling did get his wish." Is a story told by a librarian in the city of doors, Cited above the 5e Monster Manual description of Marids, water genies.

Revenant human would work

Clone and Sequeter combo seemed like my best bet so far. Checking the video.

The Rod of Security method can be disrupted by a 15th level wizard with the Scrying and Demiplane Spells. Cast Scrying on the target to view the Rod of Security's demiplane and cast Demiplane, targetting thr demiplane created by the Rod of Security.

Go warlock of the undying, then multiclass into the undead rouge thingy from UA. U need to be 6th løv in Booth classes. Now you OMLT have to succseed on 1 death staving throw, which u have advantage on. Boom! Immprtality(Unless ur dine hate uT^T)

Eatly Squad where you at

You would probably need a Boon of Immortality along with the Security, since you’d likely age by a few seconds every time your Demi-plane vanished. You’d live for a LONG time, but without the boon, you’ll reach the end of your rope eventually.

There was one story I heard a long time ago. There was an item called boots of the wanderer, or something along those lines, that allowed a player to stay standing below 0 health as long as they didn't take a hit. And there was a vest of damage sharing that "divided damage taken among party members" and a ring that allowed you to perform your next check with the damage you last took as the modifier. The vest wasn't designed with multiple players wearing them in mind, so when all the players used the vest and the boots together and someone hit one of the players, the damage bounced around and compounded infinitely. But since you couldn't do much more than move at -infinity health, all you needed to do was lay down face down in a puddle and drown yourself. Drowning sets your health to 0, allowing a party member to perform first aid and stabilize you. From there, use infinity as the modifier for an ALL KNOWLEDGE check. To check if you have all knowledge. Then there's nothing you can't do or be kept from doing, cause you know how

Friend: makes kurosensei in DnD Me: makes Ban in DND Friend: “wait, that’s illegal”

immortality is no death by ageing if you want to not be harmed by physical damage you want invinceability

3:20 also, there are several things like suffocating or a banshees whail that simply drop you to zero hp, or that just kill you like power word kill does.

I love how you made Koro Sensei have the quest spinoff to fit the DnD them

The word that would kill the gods is not "SIMP." Some may be vulnerable to it, but some definitely would laugh it off. The god-killing word is "MOIST."

"Not even gods are immune to death" 2020: Write that down!

The way of being imortal is dying, once you're dead you can't die anymore

I like how Korosensei here is the main topic USED for immortality at lvl 1 in Dnd. brings back nostalgia.
