Asher Mir is an Awoken Warlock of the Last City, and a researcher.
Biography
Encounter with the Genesis Mind
- "Be safe, Gensym Scribe. A storm is coming. And I will not be at your side when it finds its way to our shores."
- — Eris Morn[2]
While researching the Vex, Asher hired two Hunters to accompany him on a mission. They worked well together and continued to function as a fireteam. They eventually attempted to explore the Pyramidion on Io, where they encountered Brakion, Genesis Mind by the shores of a radiolarian lake in its depths. The Vex Mind experimented on the Guardians by attempting to graft Vex technology onto them. While his two companions perished, Asher and his Ghost survived and escaped the Vex, with Asher's right arm replaced by a Vex's and his Ghost heavily augmented,[3] now possessing an unblinking red eye like a Goblin's.[2]
Asher made it back to the Last City but fell into a coma from his wounds, with the Vex arm attempting to infect more of his body. Shortly before his friend Eris Morn disappeared from the City, she visted Asher in the Tower's medical bay and explained that she was leaving to find a way to defeat the Hive outside of the safety of the City. Eris wished him well, sadly noting that she would not be by his side during the City's oncoming struggles.[2]
The Red War
Asher later woke up from his coma, and worked closely with Guardian forces during the Red War, conducting research into the Vex and Taken at the same time from his outpost on Io.
Personality and Traits
Asher Mir's personality is prickly, as Ikora Rey was noted to have been exasperated with him, making Eris Morn regard him as a kindred spirit and a friend.[2] They related to each other on being changed by alien enemies. He tried to help her with her research on Nokris, but found nothing, [4] He is a very whimsical, narcissistic and eccentric individual, not particularly caring for the safety of the subjects that he sends out for research duties. He strongly values evidence and careful planning and has little regard for people who act impulsively.
Trivia
Eris Morn calls him a "Gensyn Scribe", a rank or even another name. Gensyn Lisp is a programming language, with "gensyn" short for generate symbol. In this case, Asher's title means he has a new name, speaking to his catatonia from submersion in Vex technology.[5] Alternatively, "gensyn" is a Danish word meaning "reunion".[6]
