Abilities & Attacks

Saving Throws: -1 status to all saves vs. death effects Telepathy 100 feet (aura, magical, mental). A monster with telepathy can communicate mentally with any creatures within the listed radius, as long as they share a language. This doesn't give any special access to their thoughts, and communicates no more information than normal speech would. Walk the Ethereal Line (2 actions). The phantom walks the thin line between the Ethereal and Universe in order to exist on both planes simultaneously. They can shift back to solely the Ethereal Plane by using this ability again. -1 Status to All Saves vs. Death Effects 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 flow of souls, where their soul resumes the usual path to the afterlife. Phantom Touch (spirit). Each time they make a Strike, a phantom can choose to deal spirit damage instead of the normal physical damage type. Grab Item (1 action). The phantom beast attempts to Steal one item of up to 1 Bulk from a creature, even if the creature is in combat, though the object still must not be one that is actively in use. If they succeed, they carry the object along with them telekinetically.
