Re: Not nice

so was it fun?
Oliphant am I, and I never lie.

SPOILER (Scrambled Phoenix's Eggs recipe):
Looking at the code, I think it will resurrect after any normal death; then, after resurrecting, it will regain full health and remain in a larval state (unable to move or attack or cast) for 5-10 turns (check for "reviving phoenix" status); if you manage to kill it again in this brief time lasso, it will be gone for good (not an easy task, due to its high HP and regeneration rate); otherwise, you will have to go again through the entire process.
* Edited to be less spoily, like Fela made me notice
