Mirko Khan

Mirko Khan is a member of the Luminary Institution and a search investigation is after him and his group, the Lesueur escape troupe. He originally was located and raised at L Bunker, Point Nemo along with his other 'siblings' until their revelation of the outside world and now they act as Nomads. This sudden change in environment would lead to the significant change in Mirko's personality as he takes responsibility for keeping them on track and discovering more about the world around them.

As Mirko ranks #6 out of 208 members in the Luminary Institution, he wields an insane amount of power and talent with one of the rarest powers that have been discovered. With this power comes a lot of responsibility which takes a great toll on his mental health.

Mirko reigns a member of the Past Unit for all three seasons he airs in, helping discover most of the information the kids will need as they proceed, making him one of the most intelligent and knowledgeable characters in the series.

## Appearance

Due to being underfed, Mirko is rather lean with little to no visible muscle. He is of Japanese heritage, with slender eyes, shaggy black hair, and dark brown eyes. He wears the typical L Bunker outfit- crimson red shirt and black pants.

After the escape in 2034, in order to diminish his appearance, he switches his clothes out for (figure it out). As the years progress, he notices a yellowing in his skin. As the years progress, Mirko begins to notice, unlike the other others, that his hair is falling out rather than growing out. As he comes to the realization that he may have cancer, the stress he puts on himself to keep himself alive begins to show in his appearance as he grows paler and disheveled. Galen Bly considers Mirko to be uniquely attractive compared to everyone else who has European-looking features.

## Personality

Upon the first views of Mirko, he is rather quiet. He is often found reading books, and constantly working to improve on his intelligence to pass Marz Mabey in grade. He is not often seen smiling, unless he is immersed in a story he is reading. Despite his outlook, he is extremely caring and works to be included in the group when he can be. He would be the first to point out a missing person in a room and quick to ask questions when appropriate, and sometimes even when it wasn't appropriate. He has a great sense of something being bigger than themselves, and works constantly to figure out what the awful feeling may be.

As the Escape Arc ends, Mirko takes it upon himself to continue his research to provide more knowledge for the group. With a few of the other members taking time to enjoy life outside the bunker, he reserves himself more and supports a more serious front, a reminder to the others that the outside world is not a game to him. He becomes more protective, and takes Annis Agani into the Past Unit in an attempt to get her senses straight. His protective nature often gets him into dangerous situation unintentionally as emotions take over rational decisions. Where he normally wouldn't do this, it becomes prevalent that some people are more important to him than others and it is worth risking his life to protect them at any cost.

He has gut intuition of right and wrong, but often does not speak out on what he thinks is right and wrong for he thinks it is important for others to learn from their mistakes just as he has in order to improve themselves. This shows in his quiet nature when wrong decisions are being made, as he doesn't outwardly say he doesn't agree. The only time he speaks up is if it particularly ends in inevitable danger.

His personality undoubtedly is impacted upon those around him, as he constantly strives to be different from those who don't take things seriously. The contrast of him between the others is what defines him as a significant character in terms of intelligence and raw character. His personality shows a direct opposite of Galen Bly's, which also leads to their connection as they both give each other what the other person needs. As Mirko starts to realize his feelings for Galen, it begins to play a key role in the decisions they make, the risks they take, and boosts Mirko's protective nature when he realizes Galen is a key necessity to the team.

## History

Mirko was immediately transported to Point Nemo immediately after his birth in Japan, due to lack of space at J Bunker.

When the files in the radio room were discovered, the information of his parents was outdated. According to further research Mirko has done to figure out if he can find his parents, they are missing and there is no trace of them in any separate documents. Still not satisfied with this information, he later asks Ramona Warsh to look into finding his parents in case they are still alive so he can have a chance to meet them.
