Question: This is a follow-up question inspired by [this question](https://rpg.stackexchange.com/questions/99966/when-merged-with-the-raven-using-soul-of-the-raven-is-the-warlock-immune-to-d).

While you're merged with your raven, if you take damage, how do you resolve it? It's not the same as a simple polymorph.

Do *both* you and the raven take the damage? Is it just you? If the raven *does* take the damage, what happens if it dies while you're merged with it? If it's just you, what happens to the raven/your body if you die?

Answer: 
The Soul of the Raven is an exension of Sentinel Raven

Sentinal Raven reads:

> 
> While perched on your shoulder, the raven can’t be targeted by any attack or other harmful effect; only you can cast spells on it; it can’t take damage; and it is incapacitated.

Soul of the Raven Reads:

> 
> As a bonus action when your raven is perched on your shoulder, your body merges with your raven’s form.
>

The intent is clearly that your raven can take no damage, so all damage to the merged form would occur to your HP.

> The raven vanishes when it dies, if you die, or if the two of you are separated...

This would imply that upon death, you'd become the PC form again, and the raven vanishes.
Since not other stated, i would assume it works like the druids **Wild Shape** ability, so the raven takes the damage and when he falls to 0 HP, he vanishes and you reappear.

Still, nothing is written about that, but i would handle it like that. So if the raven gets killed in the air... good Luck to you!
