Mahir is a Soul Escort and the overseer of the afterlife. His official title is Hermes but he does not like to call himself that; he is undeserving, he says, because the previous holder of that title is one and true.

Mahir was infatuated with Ambrus. Ever since Ambrus disappeared, Mahir's feelings for him ascended into worship. From training a rowdy new soul escort to deciding what to eat for breakfast, he now asks himself: What Would Ambrus Do?

PERSONALITY

Both Ambrus and Dénes have teased him for not having much of a personality. More accurately, he is not good at relating to others, and doesn't care about others' accomplishments. But he is not incapable of smiling. He has been known to gloat and act younger than his age.

He is quite independent and will act without consulting others first. But because he is in a high position of power now, this doesn't raise issues for others anymore. Declares absolute loyalty to only one person at a time.

EXTRA INFO

He seemed to always be in the right place at the right time, taking opportunities which fall into his lap with little to no work in exchange -- and, luckily, everything seemed to go in the best possible direction for his future (disastrous causes and side effects aside). His competency has been questioned, but the only person who ever questioned it was ostracized by the only people who could do anything about it. Indeed, all events seem to end up in Mahir's favor. ... Until he crosses paths with a certain bird-footed soul escort, and he fears for his life.

Has the one true caduceus in his possession, an artifact which can negate gravity and conduct energy. It was left to him by Ambrus.
