In the year 1566, a sailing ship was attacked by pirates in the Bay of Bengala. All crew and passengers perished, save one. A boy. Rescued by the Bandar tribe, he was taught their secret ways. He swore an oath on the skull of his father's killer, to fight injustice wherever it may be found. And so the Phantom lives on in the whispers of twenty-three generations. The role has passed on from father to son, and the world believes there is only one Phantom.
