Personality[]
BURNS THINGS AND GETS IN FIGHTS
History[]
Ashley was born and raised on a Mann-CO weapon development facility, where he cultivated an intense love for incredibly sophisticated technology that's sole purpose is murder. It was there that he learned to fight anything that moves/doesn't move, eat nails and radiation for breakfast, and grow mustaches at will (possibly from the aforementioned radiation).
Though surrounded by the most advanced tech on earth, Ashley proved to be a complete luddite. His ineptitude with machinery transcended the realm of incompetence; he had a gift. Even today, Ashley is the equivalent of a human sapper.
Despite all this, he had a pretty sweet life at Mann-CO. Had a job as a product tester. If technology could survive Ashley for even five minutes, it was ready to ship. And he was generally liked by the other Mann-CO employees, who deemed him appropriately manly, and found his luddite idiocy charming.
Until he broke respawn.
Then he joined Blu.
