Hamir was a man of Tibetan-Chinese descent who lived in the remote village of Kamar-Taj in the mountains of Tibet. Also known as Hamir the Hermit, he followed his family's tradition of voluntary service to the Earth realm's Sorcerer Supreme. Hamir served under the tutelage of the Ancient One during the latter's final years under that title. Hamir's son, Wong, carried on the family tradition and functioned as manservant to the Ancient One's successor, Doctor [[Stephen Strange]
