    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.

      The problem with the demi plane idea is that the PC does not have the trait of divine. One of the powers of greater deities is that as a standard action they can kill any mortal without the divine trait (any greater deity doing this would be vulnerable, so this is extremely uncommon).
      You need to create a new plane of existence or gain the trait divine. No single item will allow this, but the wish spell could. More often then not the wish spell can be used to start the trial of stars (the thing that lets you become the lowest level of a god), after that the rod creating the demi plane would work. Unless...Well the one that gods answer to (the DM) always has the power of rocks fall, so...No. There is no way to never die.

      Immortality, cannot die.
      Invincibility, cannot be defeated.
      Invulnerability, has no weakness.
      Indestructible, cannot be destroyed.
      Immortality in fiction usually means can not die to time. But it literally means not subject to death. So the concept of death itself in physical form can come up to you and do nothing.
      You can see why this is boring for a hero and near impossible to beat for a villain.
      Garlic Jr is one of the few immortal characters I have seen. He couldn't be killed. He could be overpowered, but never killed. And that meant he could never use up enough energy to die either. Willpower became terrifying in the hands of an immortal. The only way they stopped him was by sealing him away.
      If we look at elven immortality which only addresses time, they need to become indestructible to be truly immortal. Their physical body needs to be unable to be beaten. And they need to have no weakness that can change their ability to be affected by time or the inability to be destroyed.

      In my opinion immortality isn't about being impossible to kill but rather capable of avoiding death for as long as you like, and it's important to remember that making your consciousness eternal does not count as immortal as in order to be able to avoid death you need to be something that would normally be able to die, utilising of a wish spell to make yourself a concept or something similar would mean you can still stop existing but not truly die

      that's a good one: use wish to toss yourself into a bland childish power-fantasy isekai plot: it probably won't make you immortal but you WILL be utterly overpowered and probably come out of it with a variety-pack harem of utterly devoted girls all of which are either super useful in some utility manner or just straight up overpowered combatants in their own right all for literally zero risk of actual danger.
      ...though funnily enough the closest thing I can think I can think of to an actually immortal isekai character is Subaru Natsuki and you do NOT want to get tossed into that setting...maby the adventurers in Log Horizon come pretty close to counting? all that dying actually does to them is wear away at their memories so as long as they don't do it *too* often they're good, they aren't actually all that strong compared to some of the threats in their setting though (their world is balanced as an mmo with fairly challenging end-game content, which the adventurer population only got access to the appropriate levels and items for AFTER their isekai event so even a full raid group of maxed out adventurers is a bit to weak for the biggest threats) so they actually do need to maintain a community to keep a safe foothold at their respawn locations.
      ...If boys are more your taste you're more likely to get a couple choices or an OTP than a full on harem, pretty good odds of them being just as stupidly OP as you though so there's that.

      In the game im playing rn the dm uses a Advantage/Disadvantage homebrew system where you can, indeed, have the advantage of immortality.
      But it works as regenerative immortality and you wait an indefinite amount of sessions until when your body regens so that you can play again, until then no games, which is why nobody actually takes it.
      But the most fun part of the homebrew is the "enforced" RP which reduces murderhobos and such things, also it helps making combat fun since monsters can also have advantages so strategy is needed in most encounters

    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.

      So DM discretion but friends used the rod of security to set up their little paradise similar to Kami's, complete with mr. Popo's training room. They had 100 days to train and created a demiplane that would pull stronger and stronger creatures to fight. For their murder hobo crew it really was paradise. No loot but they got xp.

      Sincerely it would be an interesting campaign if a npc took a crew of players to the demiplane of the rod of security but when they arrive the npc makes it a living hell for the others and the objective would be to kill him to free yourself, it would ressemble a game of kill the god, when you have to spot the weaknesses of the npc to try to assassinate him while he plays with you making you have to fight powerful monsters or other things

      In the campaign I'm running, the Outer Planes act this way, and higher beings can control the amount of time they experience. You could go visit your relatives in the afterlife for the weekend then be back by lunchtime.
      The trick is, because time speeds up and slows down chaotically in the Outer Planes, you pretty much have to Any% glitched speedrun with teleporting to the outer planes. You have to clip through _this_ wall at _this_ frame down to the millisecond, and the phases of the sun and moon play a role in _where_ you're gonna glitch into.

    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....

    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.

    From my DM reading of the Rod of Security, you cannot activate the rod again until you've been outside the paradise for 10 days. It says, essentially, "When the time runs out, all parties reappear where the rod was used. The rod can't be used again until 10 days have passed."
    There is no text explicitly stating that it's "10 days after the people return", but it seems to be heavily implied. It's even in a paragraph on it's own with the rest of the "when the effect ends" text.

      The item description says that when you exit the extradimensional space, you reappear at the time you activated the rod, so no time passes in the real world. That should cause magic items to not recharge over time, since you cannot magically speed up their recharge times. Since no time passes between the use and the start of the recharge rate, you'd need an infinite number of these _very rare_ rods to do this interminably.

    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?

      lil fox I'm not sure that would work, though. Unless I'm mistaken, you have to either deal damage or take damage in order to continue raging, and unless the zealot's rage gets rid of that rule, then something that can stop the barbarian from attacking and being attacked for one turn would be enough to end that rage, which would let them die. This is all coming from a person who plays spell casters almost exclusively though, so I could be missing something that invalidates my entire argument.

    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)

      In that case, yeah, seems viable. Just carry a solid way to regain HP before your rage ends. You only need that once, since I just checked, and Crawford says it's perfectly fine to start a new rage while already raging.
      We still need some protection from extreme-damage attacks, if we want to declare true immortality, and from any conditions or effects that might force you to stop your rage. Sleep isn't the only one: off the top of my head, Command or Suggestion could do it, and there's certainly more. You also need protection from effects that cause insta-death, like Power Word Kill, or a Mind Flayer's Extract Brain.
      Any way to accomplish all that with some combination of magic items, feats, boons, allied spells or abilities, and allied/controlled monster abilities? Can't multiclass, since you need 20 levels of Barbarian to pull off the endless hours of raging thing.

    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
