The Hsien section of Mystic China lists a number of False Immortals as well as the Enlightened Immortals.
In wanting to turn one of these into a character I am at a bit of a loss. Is this just flavour text?
Or are these kind of like templates that you add to an OCC? and if so, are there restrictions on which OCCs can find their way to (false) immortality?
Can these be PCs or are then NPC only?

They appear to be templates that can be added to any particular O.C.C.

Re: Hsien Question(s)
Restrictions in some cases might involve the requirement for chi mastery, for example. An OCC who doesn't learn an art that teaches that couldn't likely become a positive or negative chi immortal. Pretty much anyone can swallow and alchemist's elixer or tie up and eat ginseng though.
A lot of it depends on GM fiat though. About the only self-determined way of doing any of these that's actually statted out is the penultimate Chi Magic spell that can make a 1st stage Heartless.
