Ashir is an affable man, with a calm demeanor.{{book ref|sa1|i|8}} His [[Calling]] is cooking, but his interest is in chemistry, which he practices through his cooking because it allows him to eat the results. Instead of trying to create delicious meals, Ashir enjoys cooking highly experimental dishes. He tries new dishes and cooking methods which he shares with his companion Geranid. Ashir is less concerned with how a dish tastes in the end than he is with how interesting he finds the results. Although his chemistry comes in the form of cooking, he still records the results of his experimental meals. Ashir cooks many of his dishes on a hotplate powered by a fabrial. |

| − | Despite his love of cooking, Ashir wonders if he should change Callings.{{book ref|sa1|i|8}} He has less of a passion for cooking than he once did, and does not see how his cooking will one day serve the [[Herald]]s in their fight to reclaim the [[Tranquiline Halls]]. Ashir does not believe that they will need to eat food, and has little interest in only being able to cook ideal dishes once he dies and passes to the Spiritual Realm. He has something of a sweet tooth, and enjoys food that is traditionally reserved for women. Ashir is far more practiced in scientific theory than he is in mathematics, but Geranid is the opposite. |

He is also something of a philosopher, posing theoretical questions that cannot readily be proved or disproved. |
Ashir and Geranid have come to love one another over their years spent together.{{book ref|sa1|i|8}} Despite their love, they remain simple companions because they have dedicated the majority of their lives to serving the [[Almighty]] and do not wish to make a mistake at the very end. |

Nothing of Ashir's early life is known, but at some point he joined the ardentia.{{book ref|sa1|i|8}} After some length of time as an ardent, he and his close companion were assigned to live on a small island in the Reshi Sea. Ostensibly this was to serve the needs of any Vorin peoples in the area, but in truth Ashir and Geranid wished to have some peace and seclusion in which to continue with their studies. During their many years there, they still served the needs of any people in the area who practiced Vorinism, but their studies are their priority. At some point during their lives, Ashir and Geranid fell in love with one another. |

He had no idea what it meant, but he was certain that Geranid had discovered something important that may revolutionize the world's understanding of fabrials and spren. |
