Pha Xiong has probably done more for the foundation and success of the Tsoo than anyone else, except perhaps Tub Ci. When Tub Ci was imprisoned in the Zig, he met there another Hmong prisoner like him: Pha Xiong. This Pha Xiong was a veteran of Asian Southeast wars, some dating back to the 50s, a consumate master of martial arts, master tattooist and, secretly, a man versed in the magic arts of old (1). Pha Xiong is the original source of the recipe of the Tsoo Ink (1), and, probably, of the secrets of the summoning of Ancient Spirits as well. He taught Tub Ci most or perhaps all of his secrets (1), which the later used to eventually form the Tsoo afterwards.
