I feel like immortality is always a monkey's paw.
Can we replace it with like... Negligible Senescence?

Assuming it's not a monkey's paw (since invulnerability is also there) then:
Immortality, teleportation (to escape capture), intellect.

Also wtf is Devine Power?

Immortality is fine, until you end up stuck somewhere forever.

It's inevitable, it might be 10 years from now you'll get stuck under a mudslide and buried forever, but conscious.

In a billion years, you'll get stuck inside the expanding sun forever.

In a few trillion years you'll get stuck floating in the void of space forever as the universe expanded into nothingness.

Immortality needs some sort of way out, or else you'll eventually end up suffering forever (what's a trillion years to someone who will live for eternity?)

This is the literally why I called it a monkey's paw, and suggested negligible Senescence instead.
It's also why I selected teleportation.

It's like you didn't read any of my comment except the word "immortality" 😑
