Meeting Doctor Strange[]

Hamir 1

Hamir meets Doctor Strange

In 2016, Karl Mordo brought Stephen Strange to the Ancient One at Kamar-Taj as Strange hoped she could mend his damaged hands. When Strange first saw Hamir, he mistook him for the Ancient One due to his preconceived ideas.[4]

Demonstrating Magic[]

Hamir comes over to demonstrate magic

Hamir and other Masters were present during an exercise which involved novice and intermediate sorcerers at Kamar-Taj, who wished to expand their skills in the martial arts and casting magical spells. Stephen Strange was complaining to the Ancient One that he can't make a portal with his Sling Ring because his hands were shaking. So the Ancient One called Hamir to show him that he can make magic even though his hand was missing. Then Hamir demonstrated his magic to him, indicating that Strange can do the same thing as him as long as he did more practice.[4]

In November 2024, Hamir was at Kamar-Taj and rallied alongside Doctor Strange and Wong to protect America Chavez. He listened as Wong explained the prophecy of the Scarlet Witch and told Sara Wolfe and other sorcerers to arm the students. Hamir stayed inside with Chavez, guarding her. When Strange and Wong joined them, Hamir was taken away by the Scarlet Witch, who from within the Mirror Dimension, used the reflections in water puddles on the ground to get to them. Hamir was then killed by her.[1][3]

Behind the Scenes[]

  • Scott Derrickson had stated that he would have liked to further explore Hamir's mysterious nature in Doctor Strange sequel: "I actually really like the Hamir character. He never says anything, you know? He's got a disability, but he's a master of the mystic arts. I have a feeling that guy's got some secrets up his sleeve that I'd like to learn more about."[5]
