If you have an ability that allows you to act while below 0 hit points, you still lose hit points for taking actions, as specified by that ability.

In addition, you don't die until your total number of negative hit points is equal to or greater than double your Constitution score.

Your double acts on your initiative count, and can move up to your speed each round. It always attempts to flank with you against a single target you designate. If it must use Acrobatics to avoid an attack of opportunity during this movement, your double uses your bonus. Though your double can't attack, it is treated as threatening adjacent squares for the purposes of flanking with you. Anyone attacking your double or otherwise physically interacting with it can attempt a Will save (DC 25) to recognize the double as an illusion. The double has your AC, and if any hit would deal damage to it, the double dissipates. An opponent who recognizes your double as an il lusion can't be flanked by it.
