Collective noun, denoting a person with the ability to return from the dead. Such a person is understood to intrinsically hold unprecedented power and privilege, due to their immunity to any direct lasting consequences from their actions. Notable examples include every video game protagonist, the guy from Groundhog Day, and Jesus Christ.
We think of Mario as a hero, but he is simply a one percenter of a more privileged variety. The lifekind. Perchance.
