Special abilities

• Bilious Aura. A living creature that starts its turn within 10 feet of the undead phoenix can't regain hp and has disadvantage on Constitution saving throws until the start of its next turn.
• Eternal Unlife. If it dies, the undead phoenix reverts into a pile of necrotic-tainted ooze and is reborn in 24 hours with all of its hp. Only killing it with radiant damage prevents this trait from functioning.
