>Born when an actor dies while playing a character, their pursuit of total immersion in a role drives them mad. Believing themselves to be their character, they haunt their old theaters and drive out those who break their immersion, or lure in those who would play along>Phantbeths take on the role that they played during life, but very rarely a Phantbeth will find another role that speaks to it more deeply. Pursuing this muse without end, it is only during this transition period that an individual could hope to reason with a Phantbeth into letting go of their role and lay them to rest.
