Miro Ribeira

Character from enders-game by Orson Scott Card

Novinha's son who studied the Pequeninos, was paralyzed crossing an electric fence, and was reborn whole through a journey Outside the universe.

Marcos Vladimir Ribeira von Hesse — Miro — worked as Lusitania's xenologer, studying the Pequeninos with the same passion his biological father Libo had. He attempted to cross the electric fence surrounding the Pequenino territory using capim anesthetic — it failed, leaving him paralyzed with severe brain damage. During the first journey Outside the universe (where formless aiuaas can be given shape by conscious minds), Miro's aiua unconsciously projected a healthy body, leaving his crippled one behind. He was reborn. He later married Jane after she received Valentine II's physical body — marrying an AI who became a person.

Appearance

Brown eyes, auburn hair. After his paralysis: damaged body, limited movement, Cifi unit in ear for communication. After his Outside journey: physically whole again in a new body.
