Dr.Shim

The worst part? None of this will ever be covered in game. [spoiler]#Speculation[/spoiler]

11 RepliesI saw an interesting theory on this topic. It basically went along with the fact you are (or were Dr. Shim) before the fall of the Golden Age. Because it almost instantly recognizes you, and your Ghost seems to try and shrug it off. It's either too much for you to handle, or he is trying to hide something. [i][b]This is not my theory. I just read a lot of speculation posts lol. Would credit if I knew the original poster.[/b][/i]

8 RepliesGhost Fragment: Vex 3 [quote]From the Records of the Ishtar Collective SUNDARESH: I have a plan. ESI: If you have a plan, then so does your sim, and the Vex knows about it. DUANE-MCNIADH: Does it matter? If we're in Vex hell right now, there's nothing we can - SHIM: Stop talking about 'real' and 'unreal.' All realities are programs executing laws. Subjectivity is all that matters. SUNDARESH: We have to act as if we're in the real universe, not one simulated by the specimen. Otherwise we might as well give up. ESI: Your sim self is saying the same thing. SUNDARESH: Chioma, love, please hush. It doesn't help. DUANE-MCNIADH: Maybe the simulations are just billboards! Maybe they don't have interiority! It's bluffing! SHIM: I wish someone would simulate you shutting up. SUNDARESH: If we're sims, we exist in the pocket of the universe that the Vex specimen is able to simulate with its onboard brainpower. If we're real, we need to get outside that bubble. ESI: ...we call for help. SUNDARESH: That's right. We bring in someone smarter than the specimen. Someone too big to simulate and predict. A warmind. SHIM: In the real world, the warmind will be able to behave in ways the Vex can't simulate. It's too smart. The warmind may be able to get into the Vex and rescue - us. DUANE-MCNIADH: If we try, won't the Vex torture us for eternity? Or just erase us? SUNDARESH: It may simply erase us. But I feel that's preferable to...the alternatives. ESI: I agree. SHIM: Once we try to make the call, the Vex may...react. So let's all savor this last moment of stability. SUNDARESH: [indistinct sounds] SHIM: You two are adorable. DUANE-MCNIADH: I wish I'd taken that job at Clovis. [/quote]

A scientist who studied the vex, tried to learn more about them and how they could be stopped. Some of the grimoire cards explain this a bit more

Nevermind that

Dr. Shim was one of the scientists in the Ishtar Academy studying the Vex mind network. It is possible that he was erased from time, going by the Griomoire card Ghost Fragment: Vex 3. He may have also successfully escaped Vex scrutiny with the help of a Warmind.

Edited by Toketotem: 1/6/2015 6:52:58 PMHello, Doctor Shim here. IDK really I did see an old vid doc that had Crow/the queens brother in that mission with you. So maybe before the story got all fubar Crow is/was Dr. Shim. Just an idea I really have no clue, and that dialog has always bugged me too.

Nevermind that.
