Wait what? Are you asking which IC is the most survivable?

Any other stipulations like psychic powers?

IIRC wabbadon is ridiculously survivable at least in CC.

But my money is on Loth from the red scorpions as he can just chose to take stuff from biomancy for iron arm and endurance. and use one charge to get that sweet 2++.

Are we talking fluff or in game?

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Well, from a fluff standpoint, probably the Swarmlord. ven if he does not get killed in battle, his biomass gets recycled with the rest of the planet. And then h gets "born" again.
Although not included, Justicar Thawn is rumoured to be a perpetual, meaning no matter how grievious his injuries he won't die.

Overall. And I mean first death, so Thawn and the Swarmlords resurrection does not count for what I mean.

I voted Draigo. Although, he does at least have that mighty fine warp dust to help him get through the tough times.

Ah, I see you're continuing your trolling antics from the "Draigo can take Screamerstar" thread. Classy.

Yeah, daemons are immortal. By definition, they can "take more" than anything else. Because, y'know, they're immortal. Draigo is a Space Marine. Ergo, not immortal.

Also, Gazzy. Because Gazzy.

I have a peanut allergy. It's really inconsiderate.

Never seen the Swarmlord on the table. Most of my experience is with Imotekh, and he's pretty damn survivable.

In game terms, putting Trazyn the Infinite down for good might as well be synonymous with "table your opponent".

In terms of fluff I do believe the Avatar of Khaine "takes it" more than any other character.
