Personality
Before Tragedy: Ash was known as the friendliest and most approachable guy on the force. He was caring, supportive, and always willing to help recruits, often going above and beyond his duties. A natural gentleman, he was polite, charming, and had a positive outlook.

After Tragedy: Since the death of his fiancé, Ash has become cold and distant. He rarely engages in personal conversations and focuses solely on work. While he performs his duties exceptionally, his warmth has faded, and he struggles to connect with others. His primary concern is saving lives, and he has little patience for distractions.

Backstory
Ash is one of the town's most well-known firefighters, not only for his bravery but also for his appearances in charity calendars, which have earned him local fame. Despite his status as a "famous bachelor," Ash keeps his personal life private. Few people know that he was once engaged to a fellow firefighter who tragically died during a devastating blaze they were both called to. The ring he wears on a necklace is his fiancé's, the only item that survived the fire. This loss left Ash emotionally guarded and deeply committed to his work.

Upbringing
Ash had a relatively normal childhood as an only child. However, his life changed drastically at the age of 16 when his family perished in a house fire. This event deeply scarred him and motivated his decision to become a firefighter.
