You might consider reading the book by Poul Anderson, "The Boat Of A
Million Years" (TOR 1989), and adapting similar immortality
concepts... Then Ed could be as immortal as we all want (expect) him
to be and he could BE Caesar too! The book is excellent and contains
a cute limerick on page 448 too, but the immortality thing is what I
was getting at of course.
