By the way, just an update. I just tried using IsEssential on Derek Pacion, a child NPC. I then used fomm to get his BaseID, and set his Essential status to 0. Put a few rounds in him, and nothing. I used IsEssential to make sure he wasnt still essential, and it read 0, just as it should have. Like I said, the Child tag is a new class of NPC, and it seems that it makes whatever its applied to invincible.

Yes you can. It takes a while to load, but it can be opened with TESsnip.

Could you share with us how to "click off immortality"? I've tried a variety of script commands in the console, and the way I figure it is that since IsChild=1, the Child type of Creature is globally immortal. We just have to make it IsChild=0. I dont know the command to do that, however. IsChild is just a call to check the current value of the "Child" parameter, not to change it.
