- — Asher Mir[1]
Biography
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.[1]
He and Eris had a close friendship, as she visited him in the hospital before she vanished.[1]
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 and eccentric character, not particularly caring for the safety of the subjects 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.[2] Alternatively, "gensyn" is a Danish word meaning "reunion".[3]
