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?)

Teleportation is also one of the options, so that solves the getting stuck somewhere problem. My concern is what immortality is like without also getting invulnerability...

Sure, but that just pushes back the timeline some. Even with immortality, invulnerability, and teleportation, you're still going to live forever floating in the void of space. There just isn't going to be anywhere to teleport TO after a few trillion years.

Unless you can teleport to other universes / realities
