A well-known rabbitfolk inventor with mechanical limbs, and the adoptive son of the equally famous inventor Borgrumm Holdok. After he was framed for Borgrumm’s murder he fled the city of Cragmoore with the aid of Antoine Dumas and Amelie Kenton, eventually safely reaching Friedport. Here he met Bande Aparte and Gator Grippli with whom he formed the The Landcrab Plot.

Ashur met his end to an agent of the Ocean King in the city, but was eventually reincarnated with the help of his companions, as well as a returned Amelie Kenton, the Mage Hero Zcaldon and the mysterious local primal entity the Reedmother. As a result of this he gained the body of an Iruxi, but eventually restored his rabbitfolk body with the help of both his inventiveness and his companions’ talent for magic.

With the Newcomers, Ashur would eventually go on to save the city from the Landcrab Plot. In the process, he won the Summer Games and earned the title Herō of Friedport, as well as enough prestige to push for government reform (ending the tripartite system) and to start up a successful tinkershop.

Ashur was gifted a metal jaguar-like construct companion named Jacques by his father, which he has since maintained, and Ashur himself invented his flying metal owl named Volaire.
