Could you tell us more about Zahir 👉👈?

He's relatively new so I'm still not fully done with his Idea but I have quite a bit anyways <:) This is a bit long buuut...

That's his design for now! (Left being latest) I really wanted him to have long dreads and the general shape of Hair ( + Mask ) is inspired and based on his general theme of Horus and fits with his Inaros Prime Warframe.

His left eye and scar is from the Zariman where he's lost it after the Void Jump Accident. It was gone until Operator made the deal with Wally.

The eye healed as well as the injury resulting in the scar, giving his left eye some special void powers that make him able to "see" the void or rather it's traces better.

Another addition from the Zariman are a set of Wings on his back that resulted from conceptual embodiment. Strong emotions of fear and a desire to leave the Zariman , to fly away like the birds he liked so much.

They were smaller and only brown & white-ish when he was a kid , they grew as he did and then later on took on the blue color and golden details. They kind of can shrink and tuck well behind his back.

After the Zariman he was appointed protector of the Master Artisans of Luna Placicada (Inaros Prime lore) - Inaros Prime was a gift from Margulis and the position as well so to say.

He defected when he saw a young child , same age as him , be taken by the Orokin from the Mars Colony and brought it back becoming a protector of the Colony.

There is to say that due to his loss of eye and general void stuff Zahir isn't able to do long distance transference , his is far shorter but more powerful therefore. His transference thingie is actually on Mars itself , deeper down in the Tomb. When he defected he kind of "moved" there until the War against the Orokin broke out.

That already damaged his Warframe substantially , so when he protected the Mars Colony against the infested single handedly it took the last of his strength not only from his Warframe but also himself.

Unlike the other Tenno that went to Lua Zahir stayed on Mars and was hidden there in his sleepy cryopod. During that time he also spent significant amount of time in the void , his pod wasn't perfect and with his time in the void that's kind of why he's not a kid anymore.

He does wake up after or during the Sands of Inaros quest line however , gets his Warframe rebuilt and a base set up on Mars in the Tomb itself.

As for his personality he's quite kind. However he's more calm and let's others take the lead in talking, mostly neutral expression - very rarely anything else. Zahir is a great listener and advice giver too.
