The Witness Phantasm emerged from the collective uncertainty of Art Dye's impossible shots, born from the frozen moments where discs seemed to defy physics and memory itself. It manifests most strongly in areas where multiple observers have reported seeing the ice phoenix, as if reality itself has become uncertain in these contested spaces.

This ethereal entity appears as a shifting, translucent form that distorts depth perception and creates phantom wind patterns across the course. Its appearance varies like a perfect S-curve flight, sometimes barely visible as a crystalline haze, other times taking more defined forms that mirror the terrain's natural lines.

The Phantasm influences players' perceptions of distance and flight paths, creating false readings and impossible lines that seem to lead toward the ice phoenix's domain. It serves as both beacon and deceiver, marking locations where reality has grown thin while challenging investigators to question what they truly witness.
