Le Fantôme is a legendary French burglar who is unlocked by evading 35 enemy attacks.


The easiest way to achieve this is through the use of the medium armour skill evade. Otherwise you are reliant on a successful natural reflexes evasion. A natural miss by the enemy doesn't count. The quickest way to unlock is to put your party members who can wear medium armour, out in the open and wait to get shot at. Unfortunately this wastes bravery, so is best done replaying an earlier mission with a levelled up party to avoid being killed en masse.


As of January 2021 he has the second lowest unlock rate based on the percentage of players on Steam who have his trophy. As of build 1.1.6 he is the only character to retain his negative perk; all other negative perks (qualms - Baron, animal lover - Leonara, superstitious - Omar, pacifist - Dr Chandra) had been removed. The starting equipment provided to him also indicate the likelihood of him being one of the last to join the party.


His starting equipment is a Level 4 common knife (28-35 damage) and a Level 2 medkit (+40HP). He wears Level 3 light armour. He can be used either as a stealthy battlefield manipulator (bait, psychic control) or as an ambush attacker ( crippling shot/dash, sudden strike). One decision you have to make is whether to add a ranged attack or improve his defences.


In hard-core mode he starts with a level 1 knife, level merlot and wearing level 1 light armour.
