Replaced his arm with a Vex construct |
- "Ah, Assistant! You are just in time to join my dimensional anomaly research crew!"
- — Asher Mir[1]
Asher Mir is an Awoken Warlock of the Last City, and a researcher.
Biography
- "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]
His personality is prickly, as Ikora Rey was noted to have been exasperated with him, making Eris Morn regard him as a kindred spirit. Shortly before Eris' disappearance he was hospitalized, the source of his sickness being a Vex arm that he fashioned for himself to replace his natural one, apparently inducing him into a coma. His Ghost was likewise augmented with Vex technology; it was noted to have an unblinking red eye, like a Goblin's.[2]
He and Eris had a close friendship. They related to each other on being changed by alien enemies. He tried to help her with her research on Nokris, but found nothing, [3] and during his coma she visited him in the hospital to say farewell before her departure from the City.[2]
He later woke up from his coma, and worked closely with Guardian forces during the Red War, conducting research into the Taken at the same time.
Traits
Asher Mir is a very whimsical, narcissistic and eccentric individual, not particularly caring for the safety of the subjects that he sends out for research duties.
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.[4] Alternatively, "gensyn" is a Danish word meaning "reunion".[5]
