I have a character that has a power that essentially serves as their own personal plot armor, but as a recognized in-universe ability special only to them. It allows the character to survive any situation no matter what, but not by being inherently invincible or invulnerable, but rather by not allowing the events leading up to their death to occur. However, the user can still be injured, outsmarted, captured, or tricked, just like any normal person, but if you tried to kill them, something would happen that would prevent you from doing so.

For example, if you tried to shoot them, your gun might jam. Or they might predict your timing and move out of the way. Or maybe something happens that distracts you. Whatever it may be, something will happen that will stop them from being killed, even though they can be negatively influenced in any other way.

But the power extends to all other realities and even "works" against nigh-omnipotent sorts of powers. In general, he can be harmed like a normal human would, but in the case that he's put up against a being that could easily kill him, the power will simply make him avoid the situation entirely. He can never be killed by pretty much anything short of omnipotence because the power will steer him away from any series of events that would lead to his death, as far back in time as the beginning of reality itself. If it were him vs. a causality manipulator, or someone with logic defiance, meta luck, ultimate invincibility, conceptual transcendence, meta immunity bypassing, or any other high-level omnipotent power, he wouldn't be able to overpower them, he simply would not make enemies with that person in the first place. Or something much more complicated would lead that character to not see the user as a threat worthy of destruction to begin with.

Does anyone have any idea what power comes closest to that? I would assume something like fate immunity, but fate immunity wouldn't be able to overcome conceptually transcendant powers that don't care about fate. This power will steer the user clear of any source of death short of a completely omnipotent being.
