By nature, vampires are incredibly resilient and tend to recover from wounds that would kill a Mortal several times over. However, there is a limit to the punishment that their bodies can take, and specific forms of damage, such as from fire or sunlight, can lead to true destruction. Final Death is not to be confused with Diablerie, which not only inflicts Final Death on the vampire's body, but devours the soul and perhaps everything that made the victim who they were.

  • ...also known as Permadeath. Beyond Non-Lethal KO, beyond Only Mostly Dead. This is a relatively rare case in video games where a character dying in battle under certain circumstances is gone forever, and now the rest have to go on without him or her. Usually only happens with games where it's possible to get a fairly steady stream of replacements, so that if you manage to dwindle your party down so much that your next fight is pretty much Unwinnable, you deserve to be screwed. Said replacements may not be as good, however. Examples of Final Death include:

Hope you saved your game, unless the game doesn't let you do that. Roguelikes tend to have this as their standard, and in many cases only, option. This is a video game trope; the equivalent of this in fiction is Deader Than Dead. The inverse of this is Death Is a Slap on The Wrist. Examples of Final Death include:
