| - Mir is first and foremost a scientist, specializing in the physical and chemical sciences; her official title is Planetary Scientist Captain Mir. Following an unprovoked Autobot attack which destroyed part of the Science Labs, Mir left Cybertron with her faithful lab assistant, Halifax, to conduct planet surveys in deep space. She has had very little contact with other Transformers and prefers scientific exploration to actual combat. Mir has been gone from Cybertron since before the official outbreak of war between the Autobot and Decepticon factions that ended the First Golden Age, and she only returns for occasional shoreleave. One of her main contacts "back home" is the infamous Shockwave. Current internal Cybertronian politics mean very little to her, as she has been away from home for so long. In terms of The War Zone continuity, very few Transformers are older than she. Generally speaking, Mir dislikes Autobots, as they left her for dead after the attack on the Labs. When she comes across them on various colonies, Mir tends to avoid Autobots. But if duty demands, she will work with Autobots, albeit grudgingly; however, if negatively provoked, Mir will retaliate with up to and including lethal force. Because she has not been around other Transformers often, Mir has very little trust for anybody except for Halifax; however, once an individual earns her trust, then that trust is nearly unswervable. In addition to being a Scientist, Mir is one of the Cybertronian Ambassadors. Her tasks as Scientist on a scientific vessel by necessity take her to many different colonies of Transformers and worlds populated by non-Transformers. She was tapped to act as an Ambassador in an effort to conserve resources and, most importantly, because she is capable of doing the job. Whatever diplomatic actions she takes are binding and are not reversed. One of her more significant diplomatic duties is that of visiting the Quintesson Empire. Mir often stays for years at a time, engaging in diplomacy and exchanging scientific ideas as well. She has earned the respect of the Quintessons by virtue of her logical thinking and scientific abilities, as well as her near immunity to be shocked by new experiences. Due to the very nature of being both an Ambassador of Cybertron and Captain of her own ship, Mir is beholden to no one. Her initial orders upon accepting her Captaincy were to conduct planetary surveys to find new resources and colonization space for Transformers, anticipating the need for such vital necessities in the future. Because of the importance of her mission, no Transformer has the power to order her to deviate from this mission. Mir retains absolute autonomy when on board her ship, and would be able to give orders to great personages such as Megatron or Optimus Prime, expecting and receiving immediate compliance. Off her ship, Mir will go along with suggestions, not orders, if she is given a logical reason to do so. But she retains the right to refuse. As her mission is so forward-looking, Mir has retained a unique perspective uncorrupted by the current Cybertronian politics. Politics in general bore her. She may be a Decepticon, but only as a political viewpoint, not as a fanatic. When she left Cybertron, only mild rumblings of the Great War were taking place. Her mission is to find resources and new planets for all Transformers, (ideally with the Decepticons in charge). Even though she dislikes Autobots and would prefer to see their political views die out, she does recognize the fact that Autobots and Decepticons are Transformers first. Mir sees her overall mission as one that benefits the entire Transformers race.
