    deity by __consecrate__ can''t self-resurrect until its remains are no longer

description: 'The phoenix is a primordial bird made of heat and flame that dwells
  in the most inhospitable regions of the desert. Though highly intelligent and brimming
  with compassion, the phoenix is best-known for its iconic ability to resurrect itself
  when slain, emerging reborn from the ashes of its own corpse. Phoenixes are often
  sought out for their knowledge or healing abilities, as they cannot abide the sight
  of suffering and deny their succor only to the most foul and irredeemable of creatures.




  Phoenixes enjoy the company of metallic dragons, and when the two dwell in close
  proximity, they can forge lifelong friendships, sharing their resources and words
  of wisdom while keeping each other updated on regional news.




  While most phoenixes are benevolent, they are not infallible. When a phoenix loses
  its way or falls under the influence of evil, it still retains its strong appetite
  for knowledge. Evil phoenixes are known to assault universities and libraries in
  their pursuit for power—not only to gain new information, but also to set fire to
  the texts and thus hoard that knowledge for themselves.
