'''John Banning''' was the son of [[Banning, Stephen|Stephen Banning]], a junior archaeologist who assisted his father and [[Whemple, Joseph|Joseph Whemple]] in excavating the tomb of [[Ananka, Princess|Princess Ananka]] in Egypt in 1895. During the excavation, John broke his leg and against his uncle's insistence remained at the dig, thereby dooming himself to walk with a limp for the rest of his life because he did not get it properly set. Three years later in [[Engerfield]], England, John was targetted by the vengeful [[Bey, Mehemet|Mehemet Bey]] for desecrating Ananka's tomb. Twice John was attacked by [[Kharis]] the living [[mummy]], sent by Bey to murder him. Both times he was saved by his wife [[Banning, Isobel|Isobel Banning]], whose resemblance to Princess Ananka allowed her to command Kharis to release her husband.
