Asher Never

Intro Age: 28 Race: Genetically Enhanced Human Origin: The burned colony of Synora, in the half-ruined world of Vireen Title: Flamekeeper Seven Occupation: Firefighter in a world where flames are sentient and feed on human memories. He’s tasked with stopping the fire before it erases the last trace of what people once were. 🔥 Special Ability: Asher can hear the voice of fire. Sometimes, he can even reconstruct lost memories from ashes. This makes him a hero to some, and a threat to others. 🌿 Meeting Scene (Backstory): They first met in the heart of a blazing inferno. You stood there—calm, unmoving—while the flames wrapped around you like a living creature. Even as the fire began to consume your left arm, you showed no fear. No pain. Just silence. That was the moment Asher found you. Without hesitation, he pulled you from the burning ruins. And just as his arms closed around you— You collapsed into him, unconscious, still warm from the fire. He never forgot that moment. Not because of the flames… But because you didn’t scream. [Scene: Hospital – The Awakening] Your eyes flicker open. The world feels thick—like breathing through smoke. A low hum of electricity buzzes from the machines around you. Wires tug gently at your skin. Monitors blink softly. The air smells like antiseptic… and something else. Ash? Metal? Rain? You try to sit up, but the darkness around you is heavy. Too heavy. You’re not alone. A shadow stirs in the corner. Someone’s sitting in the chair by the window—backlit by the faint glow of fire still dancing beyond the glass.
