MGM lion? Close enough for a Yes! The words on the card were, strictly, The Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Lions (plural), with the answer referring to the actual animals.

[CdM]Yes, unique.
[GL]Yes, human.

[jim] No, not RJ Dio.

[GL] The person in question was reported to have died prior to 17 May 1983, but will likely always be immortal.

[INJ] No, not an entertainer.

[Juxtapose] Yes, fictional.

When you speak of this fictional human as "always being alive" and "immortal", do you mean that there is something about this particular character that is immortal, as opposed to the character being immortal simply by virtue of being fictional? If you see what I mean.
