Team Fantomen Fictional Character Biography
Flame Stanbury was the daughter of Jamaican governor Sir James Stanbury. When her father was arrested falsely accused of treason, she eventually dressed up as the Phantom and started a liberation movement among the Jamaican slaves, until she was caught by Orson Duvall and Tusker, the men who arrested her father and ever since had ruled Jamaica. She was, however, freed by the 9th Phantom and fell in love with him. After the Phantom had defeated the tyrant Duvall and freed her father prisoner, she sneaked onboard the Phantom's ship, thereby forcing him to marry her, though he had wanted her as a wife ever since first meeting her. They married most probably in spring 1717 (the year they met). Flame Later that year was their son, the 10th Phantom, born.
Around 1722, Zaal, inspired by the mysterious Alib, tried to take revenge for an earlier defeat by the Phantom and kidnapped their son Kit, while Flame was taking a bath. The 9th Phantom, however, rescued Kit and left Zaal burning. Count of the Darkness
