In general, resurrection on C'hou in The Keys Stand Alone is cheap'n'easy , or at least doable if not.

All of the people the Animals killed have been or will be resurrected, so Actual Pacifist Paul sees no reason why they should be permakilled. The Tipaanese are cowed by him and agree to transfer the Animals to the Circle jail.

Deader Than Dead

Aware that people can come Back from the Dead , Dean then had the body salted and burned preventing him from coming back as a ghost and spread the ashes across the US, ensuring no one will ever be able to resurrect him. A later chapter reveals that their spirits stuck around in the Shadow Realm, however, clinging to a semblance of life. When Jade comes across them, they try to drain her in order to restore themselves, only for her to destroy them, rendering them permanently dead.

The souls of Pyrrha and Amber are trapped in Cinder's body after their deaths, due to having all been connected by the Maiden Powers since all of them held some of the power when the others were still alive. Pyrrha manages to slowly gain power, and uses it to prevent Cinder from using the Maiden Powers and reveal her plans to Jaune in his dreams. Eventually, after many foiled plans and having her organization slowly crippled, Cinder is driven to attempt a massive attack on Mistral, and ends up fighting Jaune one-on-one.

At the same time, Pyrrha finally faces Cinder in her mind , and manages to defeat her with help from Amber who had barely managed to continue existing, as she didn't have any strong connections to drive her onward , after which they destroy Cinder's soul. Amber reveals to Pyrrha that, not only is Cinder dead, but by having her soul destroyed, she won't even pass on into the afterlife like Amber does. Pyrrha is left to take over Cinder's body.

Mapleshade does this to her former mate Appledusk in this animatic after also being the reason he died the first time. After he is sent to the Dark Forest, she kills Appledusk again. He ceases to exist because cats can only die twice. In Wreck-It Ralph , video game characters who die in their own games simply regenerate later. If they die outside their games, however, it's Game Over.

In Shrek 4-D , Lord Farquaad's ghost is destroyed either that or forcibly returned to the afterlife when Dragon hits him with a fireball, presumably ending him for good. Kung Fu Panda 3: Kai is already a spirit, a fact that makes him immune to being directly affected by the Wuxi Finger Hold. However, after Po gets supercharged by his friends and family giving him their chi, he destroys Kai completely.

Skeletons in the Land of the Dead who are being forgotten by people in the land of the living start to weaken and have spasms while glowing orange. If they are completely forgotten they disappear, something referred to as "the Final Death. In Beetlejuice , ghosts who are exorcised go to the " Lost Souls Room ", where they endure a disembodied existence described as "death for the dead".

The ghostly killer from The Frighteners not only kills humans, he can also kill other ghosts. As it turns out, they just go to whatever afterlife they had been avoiding by being ghosts in the first place. In the original Highlander movie and the series, the immortals can regenerate from any mortal wound, and do not age. They can only be killed permanently by cutting off their heads or presumably if their bodies are burned to ash too quickly for them to regenerate, although this is never explicitly stated in the movie. In fact, they have to die at least once to become aware of and "activate" their immortality, otherwise they'd spend their days as a mortal until they died from old age.

Presumably, being burned to ash would count as "removing the head". In the OVA Highlander: The Search for Vengeance , one Immortal is dispatched by jamming a live grenade in her mouth. In the first movie , the heroes spend a lot of time trying to find a way to kill off the undead High Priest Imhotep for good. Not an easy task, since the mummy's body is virtually indestructible when O'Connell cuts off Imhotep's arm, he merely puts it back on and it fuses instantly and he can become invulnerable by transforming into a whirlwind of sand.

In the end, the heroes perform an old Egyptian spell to split off the immortal part of the mummy's soul from the rest in Egyptian belief, everyone had three souls which is dragged into the Underworld. Afterwards, Imhotep, while still being undead, is now mortal and can be killed. Although Imhotep is resurrected and comes back from the dead again for The Mummy Returns and only finds permanent rest at the end of the second movie.

The third movie involves a different mummy. The Genre Savvy heroes of the Scream films always shoot the killer in the head, because in the movies, they always come back for one last scare. Though he's come back from gunshots and knifings, the eponymous Serial Killer from The Stepfather trilogy of films is messily chewed up by a woodchipper in the third installment. Drive Angry has the God-Killer. Obliterates the soul, causing The Nothing After Death. Those pulled into it aren't just dead, they are gone from existence. This made for a Ticking Clock and also Nightmare Fuel for a small child.

The Witch Queen Bavmorda's ultimate plan in Willow is to do this to the baby Elora Danan by means of the Ritual of Obliteration, a vile rite meant to not only kill her, but send her soul into the Netherworld so she cannot be reborn to threaten her again. It ultimately happens to her instead when she makes the mistake of stepping into her own ritual circle during her confrontation with Willow. In the backstory of the Syfy Channel Original Movie The Fallen Ones , after The Great Flood wiped out all giants which were the product of breeding between angels and humans , God decreed that there would be no more giants.

At one point after, Amon , a fallen angel, hooked up with a human woman, but the resulting child was human, indicating that when God said there would be "no more giants", he meant it. Unfortunately, Amon had an giant son of his mummified along with four others before the flood and plans on resurrecting them, undoing God's decree.

The Wardstone Chronicles has the creatures of the Dark be soulless and once destroyed, they can never return. One such creature is The Bane who was worshiped as a God, then trapped behind an iron gate, released from the iron gate, brought back to the iron gate if he returns to the gate, he can never escape again, so already a Fate Worse than Death and to top it all off, the main character impales the poor demon three times with his iron rod before causing the demon to explode and disappear from existence. The Taltos novels of Dragaera see people die and come back all the time; "revivification" is a tricky spell but most nobles will be willing to have an emergency fund for just such an occasion.

If you want someone to stay dead, cutting off their head or damaging their brain will make reviving them impossible, or you can always stab them with a Morganti weapon, which will eat their soul, not only preventing resurrection but also cutting the victim out of the cycle of afterlife and reincarnation that is the natural order of things in Dragaera. One of the few times where Deader Than Dead really means deader than dead. In The Wheel of Time , the only way to be sure that the Dark One doesn't reincarnate the Forsaken, his lieutenants, is to kill them with Balefire, which retroactively erases them from the timeline a few minutes backwards.

This causes the Dark One to miss the window of opportunity to pull them back into the Pattern time. In addition, killing a spirit residing in tel'aran'rhiod , the World of Dreams, causes that spirit to be removed from the Pattern altogether. Then again, the same holds true of fellow Power " The One's Champion ", who is intended to beat the ever-living crap out of it in its own avatar in a number of key battles Played straight in a slightly weird way in the third The Dresden Files book, in which an evil and apparently quite dead sorcerer's nasty leftover rage manifests as a ghost that wreaks havoc on the folks he blames for his defeat, and anyone close to them.

This is further explored in Ghost Story. Ghosts are spiritual copies of the deceased, formed and powered by their memories. A sufficiently powerful ghost can use memories to augment their abilities or manifest into a physical form. This is essentially Cast from Hit Points , however, and a ghost who uses up too much of their memories can become a Wraith —a mindless being that feeds on other ghosts' memories- or cease to exist entirely.

To elaborate, Heinrich Kemmler was a necromancer of near-divine power and possibly more evil than Satan World War I is was only one of the atrocities he instigated, and implied not to be one of the worst ones. The White Council killed him six times, and confirmed it, boot on body, every time. None of this was more than a minor inconvenience.

However, the seventh time stuck, and Heinrich Kemmler is, per Word of God , finally and irrevocably dead. They killed him good. A couple of times. He'd come back after they'd killed him early in the nineteenth century, so they were real careful this time. Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Unlike most vampires, the Master actually left a skeleton behind when he died.

In the next episode, his followers attempt to resurrect him, which leads to Buffy smashing it to dust with a sledgehammer. He does appear in one later episode, but that's an alternate timeline. You dreamt that the Master had risen, but you stopped it from happening. You ground his bones to make your bread. That's true—except for the bread part.

You think you'll just come back to life? In Norse Mythology , slain warriors may go to Valhalla, there to enjoy themselves feasting and fighting, rising again even if slain. But all that is just while waiting for Ragnarok, the final battle in which they will fight beside the gods and die with them. In the Book of Revelation , everyone will be resurrected at the end of the Millennium, to stand judgment. The damned, though, will then be thrown into the Lake of Fire, of which an angel has already told the visionary, "This means destruction.

More specifically, it is called the "second death," a phrase that, by that time, had been used in Jewish culture to describe an utterly irrevocable death. A very common interpretation is that the damned will be restored to their bodies, but they will still be corpse-like, and it is only for them to now suffer physically and spiritually in hell. In the earlier days of Yu-Gi-Oh! Nowadays, the game has some cards which can even return removed monsters, and there is even a deck theme Different Dimension that thrives on doing so.

It still counts, though—it's generally more problematic to summon a banished monster than a monster in the Graveyard. A number of cards can be used to banish a card facedown, which is more or less this - it's been ruled that, since it's facedown, that means it can't be identified by other cards, so any attempt to bring back a specific card that's been banished facedown won't work. This is tricky to use against the opponent, though, as most cards with this effect are based on banishing your own cards as a cost. There are several ways to make it impossible, though.

Spells which destroy the body completely, i. Disintegrate, remove the chance for a simple Resurrection spell. Liches should be mentioned specifically. Not destroying their phylactery just causes their body to reform. A lich can also become a demilich, which can rip out people's souls at will. After 24 hours, they're gone for good. At least in 2nd and 3rd edition, it was frequently mentioned that one of the components for the ritual of lichdom a wizard had to make was a potion of extreme deadliness.

So deadly that, if the wizard fails in his bid for lichdom, he would die, and the gods would not be able to resurrect the fool if they wanted to. There is also a one-of-a-kind monster known as the Tarrasque. The writers probably put it in there to serve as walking Armageddon. The books further note that even this doesn't finally kill the Tarrasque, but pushes the Reset Button on its cycle of sleep-wake-rampage-sleep. Unname , a spell which destroys the target's true name , altering reality so that the creature cannot exist.

There is another version of that spell that requires you a feat to take "Mother cyst. Although it may seem less useful since the target has to be first hit by a level 2 spell, it can be used in campaigns that are not using the "True Name" system. That means it's just as legit in Eberron as it is in Forgotten Realms.

It's so powerfully linked to the world that if you actually manage to bring him down to 0 HP, then he simply sinks back into the planet's core and sleeps again. The only way to really kill it is to somehow lure it into another plane or otherwise away from the world before killing it, and that's just a theory.

ExactChase | FanFiction

In the Epic Level Handbook , there is a special assassin guild called the Garrote. You contact assassins if you want a person to die, you hire the Garrote if you want a person to stay dead. Naturally, the amount they charge for this is astronomical. In the 2nd Ed. Planescape set partially in the afterlife after all rules the souls of the dead could be encountered, and killed.

In many cases these souls were permanently dead. Natives of the afterlife killed outside of their native plane would reform on their plane, but if killed on their native plane were permanently dead. This causes you to be cut to pieces by hundreds of invisible blades, automatically killing you with no chance of resurrection by any means. Even gods have been killed in this manner. When she decides to pen a berk's name into the dead book, she makes sure it sticks.

The Leviathan, an Eldritch Abomination mentioned in the Elder Evils supplement, has an ability called True Death which destroys the soul of anyone who dies within a hundred miles of one of its aspects. Fortunately, it only has this ability if its Sign is at Overwhelming intensity. Which as far as Elder Evils go in a campaign using one, the Final Battle against it is about to begin. The True Death ability is available for DMs who want to create their own Elder Evils, but Leviathan is the only example presented in the book who has it. There's no shortage of monsters that eat souls and monsters that corrupt their victims so thoroughly their original selves are essentially dead , monsters that, while leaving souls intact, convert corpses to a difficult-to-resurrect form like ashes or goop, and at least one form of undead that uses captured souls to power its special abilities.

Resurrection would be impossible. Unless you killed the god. Which requires you to go to their plane and kill them. Or instant death attacks. Must I go on? A natural death by old age cannot be undone by any means. Pathfinder gives one sole way back after a death from old age - Reincarnation. This allows a way back after being slain by such creatures as the kami or certain dragons, which have the ability to artificially age creatures. After the one week grace period passes, however, no mortal magic can bring a soul back.

The Up to Eleven version of this is the final power of one of the monk archetypes from Pathfinder. A "Monk of the Healing Hand" can activate all his ki and perform a True Resurrection spell on all allies within 50 feet. His body and stuff is then utterly destroyed. He cannot be resurrected by any means, including the power of a god.

In addition, his name can't be spoken or written down again and all instances of his written name are erased. In the 4th ed. The Old World of Darkness game Mummy: The Resurrection had the character playing oddly enough mummies, immortals who could die any number of times and come back to life, even if their bodies have been burnt to ash or pounded to dust though it's really hard to do, then.

Even their souls were similarly tough, being able to survive Oblivion. As such, the game lists it's a short list ways you can really get killed: The only non-magical means of killing a mummy permanently is a point-blank atomic explosion mummies can come back from dust or ash, but not subatomic particles , and that just traps them in the underworld. The Fallen , killing a demon's body won't kill the demon itself.

It will carve out a significant chunk of the demon's power and lash it with Torment, but the demon itself survives—though they go back to Hell if they can't find a new body or host quickly. However, if they die too often, they dissipate into nothingness The Oblivion features another fun variant — soulforging. When the rulers of a Necropolis need to get rid of a Spectre or a political dissident It's even implied that something of the damned's consciousness survives, but not enough to fight back.

The infamous Samuel Haight wound up as an ashtray when the fandom got sick of him. Two special cases in the New World of Darkness are vampires and Prometheans. Inflicting what would be mortal damage to a vampire merely sends it into a deathlike sleep called torpor, from which they eventually awaken Prometheans, meanwhile, all come with one built-in resurrection which burns all but one dot of Azoth , and can learn a power called Revivification Osirans innately start with it that sacrifices itself to bring them back; while they have it, they may give up dots of Azoth to pull slain Prometheans back as well.

Even these aren't foolproof, though—fire does to them as it does to vampires those powers need corpses to work on , they don't get the one-shot resurrection if they only have one dot of Azoth, and certain Pandoran abilities including one that involves eating them alive will do the trick permanently. Furthermore, Prometheans don't have souls most of them spend their existences trying to earn one , so if they die permanently, it's lights out.

Amongst mages , on the very rare occasions it's deemed necessary to render someone Deader than Dead, they do so by removing that person's soul, traveling to the end of the Dreamtime, and throwing it away in the primordial ocean at the end of reality. This is considered the most abhorrent thing possible for a mage to do for obvious reasons , and if it is ever invoked, the local ruling council will always voluntarily resign as an indication of their ultimate failure. On the one hand, there's the Crushers in The Junkyard, which are explicitly capable of killing anything.

On the other hand, there's the Grave Dream, a repository of dead dreams which can be dreamed into in addition to the usual route of navigating the Underworld, where the very first Old Law listed is " Dead In, Dead Out. Polygdemon aka Mictlantecuhtli, the Kerberos of Mictlan. It's not easy, but if you can entreat his favor, he can summon the soul of anyone who has ever died. Combined with his Geognosis , relatively erratic behavior and that one of the Laws of his realm is "The Words of Polygdemon is Law" , he's very likely one of the mythical Deathlords.

In Warhammer 40, , during the Horus Heresy, when the Emperor of Mankind confronted his traitor son Horus, he struck Horus with so much psychic power that Horus' own soul was annihilated. Normally, on death a human's soul is sent to the Warp and thus powerful servants of Chaos are forever reborn, being bound to their particular Chaos God but with the destruction of his soul, there was nothing of Horus left, making it impossible for the Chaos Gods to bring him back. Unhinged , a very definitely not tournament-legal expansion of Magic: The Gathering , addressed the inflation of such things: Remove target attacking creature from the game.

Then remove it from the removed-from-game zone and put it into the absolutely-removed-from-the-freaking-game-forever zone. Friendly innkeeper Serenity comes down with a particularly severe case of this in DragonFable. Baron Valtrith kidnaps her and uses an Artifact of Doom to destroy her soul, forcing a Doom Weapon into her body to posses her corpse. She isn't just killed, her soul has been destroyed An important point to make, since Death Is Cheap and sometimes lets people come back to life in exchange for a favor.

Valtrith makes a point of saying that she doesn't exist anymore and there's nothing left of her to save. According to Word of God , the destruction of Serenity's soul is so absolute that if an alternate universe version of Serenity visited the Dragon Fable world, she'd cease to exist too. In Might and Magic , your party members can die. Either way, you'll learn to fear any enemy that has the ability to do it. The main character of Planescape: Torment regularly dies and revives just as easily.

Much of the game is spent figuring out how this is possible In one of the endings, you do this by willing yourself out of existence. That's one of the good endings, even. If the Nameless One which means you tries to test the boundaries of his immortality on The former is an immortal similar to the Nameless One but without any of the irritating side effects.

The latter is the caretaker of Sigil who happens to be more powerful than almost any deity within the confines of the city, and will perceive the Nameless One a rash that has to be removed should the Nameless One overstep his place. Happens to several characters in Final Fantasy: In Final Fantasy V , the heroes fight Exdeath midway through the game, and even though everyone else was defeated, Galuf keeps fighting at 0 HP while Exdeath blasts him with enough damage to kill him many times over.

He manages to drive Exdeath away, but he's driven to a point where not even the party's Life spells and items can revive him and yes, they do try. In Final Fantasy VII , Sephiroth's human body died five years before the events of the game and his body was dissolved in the lifestream, but his soul fuses with Jenova and is reborn. You then end up killing his reborn body at the planet's core. Then you kill his soul in form of a grotesque mutated angel. No other villain in the series has the honor of being this dead, or at least until Advent Children.

Several of the characters in Final Fantasy X , most notably Seymour after the party kills him and party member Auron from the beginning , are actually "unsent" — souls that have not passed to the local afterlife, the Farplane. As such, the only way to dispatch them permanently is to have Yuna "send" them; this isn't a harmful or painful process, but a soul generally can't come back from the Farplane afterward, and the targets in question are usually rather hostile about the prospect.

See, in the dying remnants of the world where people have stopped aging AND giving birth to new people, the souls of the dead still exist inside the Chaos currently swallowing up the world. Those souls are still intact because living folks remember them. The reverse is true as well; the living have memories of the dead because those deceased souls are still intact. Thanks to this, all these dead people could be carried into the new world and reborn just like everyone else.

On Bhunivelze's command, the Order of Salvation seeks to prevent this with the holy clavis, which can destroy each and every one of those dead souls AND people's memories of them, completely negating the cycle. This will prevent the "unclean" from entering the new world and erase the "inconvenient" past. In Street Fighter , the Shun Goku Satsu or Raging Demon technique is said to obliterate the victim's very soul, killing them in the process.

In Iji , former Tasen leader Hel Sarie was completely disintegrated , along with her whole spaceship , when the latter was hit by a Komato Phantom Hammer. If you let General Tor who wields a Phantom Hammer charge his weapon three times during the final fight against him and fail to dodge, it will happen to Iji as well, not only destroying her body but her stats as well. In Bungie 's Myth games, the villains often meet such an end. Balor, the first game's villain is beheaded, then the head is thrown to a magically created bottomless pit called The Great Devoid. The fact this was necessary to kill him fully is evidenced by his severed head talking to you during the trip.

In Myth II, the villain Soulblighter killed by being cast into lava. In response, about five different powerful beings map out every single contingency and possibility of escape so that this time, when they kill him, it doesn't happen again. Tales of Middle-Earth , after you kill Tolkien's Satan Morgoth, you have the option of entering the Void and killing his soul to prevent a Ragnarok-style war in the future.

While traversing the Void, you might have to randomly fight any boss character that you've killed before. In the Mega Man X series, after being killed and resurrected as many times as Zero, Sigma is considered gone for good in the final game X8. Because his decimation took place on the Moon's surface, where the Maverick virus isn't as potent, Sigma is denied his ability to regenerate again.

Though the game does provide a possible means for Sigma to return, this trope finally takes full effect on Sigma in the time between the X and Zero series in which a special cure program finally wipes out every last trace of the Sigma Virus. All the characters in Grim Fandango are Dead to Begin With , but there are apparently several ways to suffer "death within death", like being crushed, or shot with a sproutella gun which causes the body to be replaced by a forest of quickly-growing flowers—marigolds, to be specific, as a reference to the Day of the Dead.

Word of God , however, says that this trope is averted: Kingdom of Loathing spoofs this kind of public domain death with the boss monster Ed the Undying. Killing him for the seventh and final time merely results in his crumpled form growling angrily at you while you nonchalantly sweep him up in a dust-pan and leave him leaning on the side of the tomb, too exhausted to try and figure out a way to permanently do away with him. NetHack has an amulet of life saving that allows the player to survive a deadly incident If an Ungenomold player ever runs out of hit points, they die without a chance to survive.

On the other hand, being hit by a death ray can be survived with an amulet of life saving. In Phantom Brave , Marona can kill the souls of her Phantoms if they "die" and she herself attacks their She can still put the pieces back together though, and transmigrate them into a stronger form. She can also do this after the Bonus Boss Baal, after he attempts to possess the Possessed One, and discovers that this just puts him completely under her power. If Marona Soul-Kills him and then examines his "remains" the game states that the area is finally peaceful and calm.

Given that in other Nippon Ichi games, Baal is a Physical God capable of coming Back from the Dead instantly, Marona really accomplishes something by permanently destroying one part. Although Baal does have more than one body. In the computer RPG series Ultima , the protagonist and party members can easily and frequently be resurrected as necessary.

The much maligned Ultima IX undoes the latter. Dupre's death in Ultima VII Part II should be clarified, his death involved being turned to ash in a crematorium, and then his soul was used as a bonding agent to reform the chaos serpent in order to bring balance to the cosmos. Deader than dead because his soul was turned into cosmic superglue. His subsequent existence as a ghost and resurrection in Ultima IX left planet-sized plot holes , and many of them, which caused some people to be While resurrection is by no means impossible, it's not as easy as in certain other settings.

It's either extremely expensive in a very stingy setting or very costly in terms of power and resources—and it always leaves the newly-raised character near death, at 0 or 1 hitpoints. In Ultima III, resurrection can fail and leave you with a pile of ashes, playing this trope straight; the ashes can be Recalled , which is even costlier and permanently drops the caster's stats if you do it yourself.

Ultima V and VI follow every death with a loss of experience. Classic text adventure game Adventure Land sends the protagonist to a place called "Limbo" when killed, from which egress is quite easy once you figure out how. There are only a handful methods of dying that really don't allow this. Likewise, the Enchanter Trilogy provides you with spells or allies that automatically resurrect you upon death, but there are a few ways around this if you really screw up.

Examples include erasing yourself from existence with a Time Paradox , having your soul eaten by a demon, and getting stuck in a permanent nightmare so that you aren't technically dead, but you might as well be. This pact with Meridia allows him to return to the mortal world if slain. In order to finally defeat him, the Champion of Cyrodiil must collect eight holy relics forged by the original Eight Divines and the blessing of the Ninth, Talos , then defeat him in both the physical and spiritual planes to kill Umaril for good.

To fully kill a dragon , you must first destroy its body and then absorb its soul. While anyone of sufficient ability can do the former, only another dragon or a Dragonborn is capable of the latter. Failure to absorb a dragon's soul leaves open the possibility of it being resurrected in the future.

Marvel Theory: Did Odin Collect All The Infinity Stones First?

Alduin , the " World Eater " and "first born" of the dragons, cannot die from merely being defeated in open battle. After doing this, the Dragonborn must follow him into Sovngarde , where he has retreated to consume the souls of the dead , and slay him there. Even then, the Dragonborn does not absorb his soul, meaning that he will likely return one day to fulfill his duty as world eater. Necromancy spells cause this as reanimated corpses turn to dust after a certain amount of time, preventing them from being raised repeatedly.

Decapitation also prevents them from becoming undead in the first place. In the Kingdom Hearts series, when a Nobody is killed, they utterly cease to exist, not even leaving a body behind, in a surprisingly gruesome disintegration, usually accompanied by an elemental explosion and screaming. Lampshaded in a dramatic way when a very young a few dozen days old Roxas ask Xibar the classical infant-question, where the hearts belonging to the deceased of the slain Heartless go.

He then proceeds to ask, where deceased Nobodies go And is "shocked" as far as this is possible to hear that deceased Nobodies go nowhere, won't return, and can't be met again. This severely depresses Roxas, as he's thinking that one of his only two friends, Axel, was recently killed. According to Word of God , Nobodies that are killed after their Heartless will reunite with their heart and be reborn as a complete person; oblivion only comes to Nobodies who are killed with their Heartless still running around.

This actually happened in Kingdom Hearts 3D: The first 8 members of the Organisation have all been reborn. Unfortunately, this includes Master Xehanort. Kingdom Hearts 3D revealed that Nobodies will literally grow a new heart after a while. Xemnas was aware of this and lied to the rest of Organisation XIII in order to stop them doing exactly that. It's also what happened to Vanitas, sort of. He was actually the dark half of Ven personified by Master Xehanort.

At the end, he attacks Ven to forge the X-Blade you need two hearts of pure light and pure darkness, respectively, to do that. Ven defeats him in the preliminary battle, but Vanitas overpowers him with the Unversed and starts a conflict in the former's heart. Ven overpowers Vanitas and destroys him, destroying his own heart in the process. In the Chzo Mythos , John Defoe's a semi- Captain Ersatz of Jason body, mind and soul all must be destroyed in order to kill him for good.

He's technically dead by the start of the series but that doesn't stop him possessing, murdering and dimension-warping our heroes. As it turns out he's wrong, and he ends up in another Hellish dimension, where he is attacked and possibly killed by demons. Whether he's really gone then isn't clear, though he never appears again to you. Yoshimo is inflicted with a geas that forces him to serve Irenicus, and after his inevitable death there's no way to bring him back.

Dynaheir and Khalid are also killed by Irenicus prior to the start of the game, and Jahiera states for the latter that his body is so tainted by whatever Irenicus did to him that she couldn't bear to bring him back in that state. And then he comes back again albeit in a different form for the second game series. Finally, he complied and just to make damn sure we know he's gone, they dropped a pile of rocks on him.

Another example could possibly be Gilgamesh's Ea. Ea's description indicates that it works by spinning so fast that it draws in air and compressing air so hard that it creates a time and space rift. Referring to it as hell, the primordial form of the planet before heaven and earth were split, a land filled with lava, gas, scorching heat, and intense cold, Gligamesh states that it is beginning of all legends of lands of the dead. It is the origin of the memory of all organisms before the existence of the planet that is no longer found in the imaginations or spoken memories of people, but rather a genetically inherent and repressed knowledge of a place and time when organic existence had been impossible.
