double resistance vs. non-magical)Susceptible to Death Though phantoms aren't alive, neither are they undead, and they are uniquely vulnerable to the effects of death. A phantom whose Hit Points are reduced to 0 as a result of a death effect (such as from a spell like execute) is immediately whisked away to the River of Souls, where their soul resumes the usual path to the afterlife.
