Events of Dying Light[]
He was among the survivors seeking refuge within the Tower, and worked as one of their runners.
During the main story quest Awakening, Amir and Jade rescue Kyle Crane immediately after his failed airdrop into the city; set upon by thugs and infected, Amir swoops in to get Crane off the street. However, the infected follow them and he is killed attempting to hold them off inside Mikla's Bikes.
It is later revealed that Amir, like Kyle, was a Global Relief Effort agent operating on their behalf in the city. He was tasked with escorting Doctors Camden and Imran Zere out of the city, but they were separated and Ghoreyshi and Zere took up residence at the Tower. While Camden remained trapped in Old Town, a group of survivors led by Spike agreed to protect Zere and his mobile laboratory within a secure courtyard.
