No your wrong it was stated in Vulkan Lives & Unremembered Empire that Vulkan was killed repeatedly, he was shot, stabbed, decapitated, hell he was reduced to a charred skeleton! with no life signs what so ever. Then where there was no life there was life. What happens it seems is that a perpetual's body is killed stone dead but their spirit doesn't head to the warp, instead it hangs around & waits & their body repairs itself the spirit then jumps back in & suddenly the perpetual is alive once more. This is why you can only kill a perpetual by destroying their spirit, killing the body is pointless but the body does die it just doesn't stay dead.
