**Asher Ingram** is the head of the Argus Directorate, the Sigmus Corporation's private intelligence agency and covert strike force. Ingram is the definition of a complete ghost, no known family, no next of kin, not even a single legitimate background that could give anyone information on his childhood. The name "**Asher Ingram**" is only his adopted name nothing more, he first started using this name while he started basic training during the Marine Corps, what made him stand out from the crowd was that the number of courses, was incredibly ridiculous as the amount would have mentally broken someone. Each course ranged from reconnaissance, surveillance, and scout sniping, strategical analytics, leadership development to close quarters combat, and in the early 2000's, he was seen as a potential candidate for Third Echelon and was recruited into the program.

By the time, Tom Reed took over as director, Ingram had discovered Reed's plan to launch a covert coup to replace the Interim President of the United States Patricia Caldwell with her Vice President Calvin Samson. However, Reed found about Ingram discovered his plans and sent Splinter Cell operatives to his residence, with only half of the operatives sent there made it back, forcing Ingram to go into hiding, though Ingram had minor role in prevented Megiddo's coup from taking place.

Ingram made contact with Damon Rommel shortly right after the first Blacklist attack happened, he suggested the creation of their own Third Echelon without political interference or red tape to prevent something like that happening. Though, hesitant, Rommel reluctantly agreed and began reverse-engineering Third Echelon equipment as part of their covert contract with the Government.

Ingram can be described as a very serious and stoic individual who rarely speaks more than is necessary preferring actions over words and being describe as someone who never wastes words with a strong sense of obligation. He is highly confident in his abilities and reputation and has a high standard of professionalism which can be interpreted as a strong moral code as well as honor which is unique among his colleagues according to Sam as Asher never willingly drags innocents' people to his missions or threatens them during it. In spite of his professionalism, he is also friendly and develops strong friendships with many other Splinter Cells like Sam and even the director of Third Echelon, Irving Lambert. It's rumoured that he is currently married, however, this is unconfirmed.

## History

Records obtained by Fourth Echelon Field Commander Sam Fisher reveal that Asher Ingram, originally born Marek Zdráhal was from Czechoslovakia, faced a tumultuous childhood. His parents, participants in the Prague Spring of 1968, met an unknown fate, leading to Asher's adoption by a Soviet GRU officer stationed in East Germany.

Under the GRU officer's guidance, Asher became part of a joint KGB-GRU child soldier program designed to infiltrate Western institutions under the guise of orphans designated as Agoge. Trained as a field operative, by instructors from Russia and the East German National People's Army, he acquired skills in martial arts, espionage, firearms, tactical driving, infiltration, free-running, escapology, and more along the ability to operate in harsh environments under challenging weather conditions. Before being inserted into the US at the age of 12, he found a new home with the upper-class Ingrams.

After the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the Soviet Union, the program disbanded and all records destroyed, with loyal sleeper agents sent to Moscow for reevaluation. Those who cut ties had their memories erased, but Asher managed to retain his recollections.

### Military Career

Graduating from the United States Naval Academy in 1988 with a Bachelor's Degree in History and Political Science, Asher served as an infantry officer in the 3rd Battalion, 6th Marines in the 6th Marine Regiment where he served in Panama during Operation Just Cause before deciding to transfer to the 2nd Marine Regiment's 2nd Battalion, 8th Marines. Joining the Marine Force Reconnaissance Units in 1989, he embarked on numerous available military training courses without succumbing to the mental strain. He excelled in special operations during Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm, earning a promotion to Captain.

Continuing his service covertly in Haiti and Eastern Europe, Ingram reached the rank of Major in 1997. His combat effectiveness and extensive training led him to be one of the first Marines at the JFK Special Warfare Center, prompting a shift from Infantry Officer to Ground Intelligence Officer.

Post-9/11, Asher and his unit were deployed to Afghanistan and Yemen, concluding with a combat role in Iraq and a promotion to Lieutenant Colonel. Assigned to the command element of the Det One pilot program, he contributed to establishing the Marine Corps' own SOCOM unit.

Approached by Third Echelon recruiters in 2003, Ingram declined, waiting for the completion of the Marine Corps' SOCOM branch. Despite his interest, he believed in completing the job he helped architect. Ingram also played a key role in planning Operation Phantom Fury in Fallujah in 2004, overseeing Det One, Force Recon, and Navy SEAL ground units. On February 24, 2006, MARSOC was founded, leading to his promotion to full Colonel, and within five months later it was fully designated as a SOF unit by the Secretary of Defence. He then opted for an honourable discharge to join Third Echelon, requesting that he be not to be publicly recognized for the creation of MARSOC, after it reached operational capacity on October 8th.

It is noted that from 1998 to 2006, Ingram was secretly recruited into the Defence Department's Defense Intelligence Agency, assigned to it's clandestine espionage arm; Defense Clandestine Service serving as a Paramilitary Operations Officer, participating in many covert/black operations though his assigned attachment to one of the Joint Special Operations Command's SMU units; Delta Force of which he was covertly inserted into the unit to help manage their operations and gather intelligence for the DIA, while maintaining his status as a Marine Corps officer. Though much of his records during his time in the DCS and Delta was heavily redacted with a top secret classification.

### Career in Third Echelon

In Third Echelon, many preferred Ingram for the support team, considering his contributions to MARSOC's creation. Director Irving Lambert respected Ingram's wish to become a Splinter Cell, recognizing his potential. Trained at "The Farm" in Camp Peary, Virginia, Ingram achieved a record but fell short of Fisher's by five points.

Dubbed "First Shadow," Ingram, despite his humility, became a legendary operative. His contributions included ending the Indonesian Crisis in 2006 and the East Asia Crisis in 2007. In 2008, tasked with retrieving stolen U.S. military hardware in North Africa, he discovered Lambert's death at Fisher's hands during an undercover operation. Confronting Sam, Ingram believed someone in the government orchestrated Lambert's demise, leading him to abandon any grudge.

### Third Echelon Conspiracy

Ingram worked as a Splinter Cell until Tom Reed's appointment as Director of Third Echelon, replacing most of Lambert's previous appointees with his own raising suspicions about his activities and prompting Asher to investigate further.

Because of his past upbringing as a Soviet sleeper agent and the extensive mental & physical training he went through, Asher Ingram exhibits a reserved, stoic, and serious demeanour, often opting for actions over words, and valuing efficiency and precision in communication. As both a former USMC special forces officer and Splinter Cell, Ingram demonstrates remarkable keen high-level intelligence on the level of foresight that is primarily focused on his mental resilience, strategic planning, and capable decision making, that helped contribute to his career as a covert operative within Third Echelon and later as the director of the Argus Directorate. Operating like a chess master, that is always several moves away.

While in the Marine Corps, Ingram had a steadfast sense of duty and commitment to building MARSOC before joining Third Echelon, that transcended his own personal desires with an adherence to his personal honour code. As he never willing drags or harms innocent people to his job or threatens them during it. In spite of his professionalism, he was also friendly and develops strong friendships with many famous Splinter Cells like Sam Fisher and even high-ranking Third Echelon personnel like Irving Lambert.

Ingram is noted by to be a cautious and calculated individual, as part of his role as the director of Argus, setting up multiple contingencies for any potential worse case scenarios such as exposure by the enemy, or destroyed. While often, Ingram preferring a shroud of anonymity and adopted identity to characterize his chose of life. It is believed that it is also a protective measure and a coping mechanism that was scalped by his early childhood within his time as Soviet child-soldier. Erecting walls around his past and personal vulnerabilities, while the layers of his true self remain hidden, they contributing to the allure of the character.

This emotional fortitude displayed in the face of adversity becomes a shield, allowing him to navigate the complex world of espionage without succumbing to the weight of past wounds. Ingram has a moral disdain towards acts political corruption and the misuse of power, that extends towards both democratic governments and autocratic regimes, regardless of the political ideologies. As he personally feels, that despite accomplishments made by Brooks and the New American Empire that helped restore order, stability, and infrastructure to the American people, they shouldn't use these accomplishments to absolve and justify to further their own brutal and immoral choices or condemn and insult those that oppose their empire.

While he had earned the nickname "The First Shadow", achieving the status as a legendary operative second to that of Sam Fisher. Ingram had a level-headed, pragmatic, and grounded approach to his role in the shadows, with proper and effective ego management, as he prioritizes the mission over personal acclaim.

## Trivia

* Due to this past friendship with Sam Fisher, Ingram personally believes that Fisher due to his previous accomplishments should have been promoted a high rank in the Navy.
* Ingram's callsign as head of Argus, "Perseus Actual" is not only to reference the Greek mythological figure that beheaded the Gorgon Medusa. But to also to reference the rumoured legendary Soviet spy that infiltrated the Los Alamos National Laboratory and managed to steal data related to the Manhattan Project. Allowing the Soviets to start the development of their own nuclear weapons program, of which Ingram uses the latter's name as a way to honour his skills in espionage and infiltration operations.
* His callsign in Third Echelon Splinter Cell, Osiris references the Egyptian mythological deity of of fertility, agriculture, the afterlife, the dead, resurrection, life, and vegetation of the same name. Additionally, Osiris' traits were used for the creation of "Serapis" a syncretic deity comprised of traits of both Greek and Egyptian gods that was popularized by the Pharaoh Ptolemy I Soter, to help unify both his Egyptian and Greek subjects. This could also reference Ingram's background as both a former Soviet sleeper agent and as a former U.S. military officer.
* Ingram's Crowfeather callsign Poseidon, references the Greek god of the same name. That ruled over the sea, storms, earthquakes, and horses.
* Ghost Recon operators Major Anthony "Nomad" Perryman, Lieutenant Colonel Cole D. Walker, Colonel Scott Mitchell, and Colonel Harold Gordon are familiar with Ingram due to him previously spent time working with several Ghosts units during his time in JSOC and the DIA.
