Physical Appearance
Despite being of mixed ethnic origin, Timur more closely resembles his Central Asian Kazakh mother than his Caucasian Ingush father. Standing at a height of 6'0" (1.82 m), he is the same height as Tadashi Hamada with a similar physique — he has slender legs, broad shoulders, and an overall lean yet somewhat muscular build. Like his mother, Timur has small eyes, straight dark brown hair, and thin lips. From his father, he inherited his hazel-green eye colour, sharp nose, bushy eyebrows, and angular square jaw. Per Tadashi, Timur has neatly combed dark hair and a long face shape, along with an additional widow's peak in the centre of his forehead. There is a distinct a stubble of facial hair adorning his chin and upper lip as well as a few strands of light eyebrow hair that join at the top of his nose in a unibrow-like fashion. Despite only being aged 21 years, he is often mistaken for being in his mid-to-late twenties.

Personality
{{sup|Timur is the direct parallel (and character foil) of Tadashi Hamada. Both men are intelligent and talented in engineering and robotics; whereas Tadashi utilised his gift to build live-supporting inventions for consumer usage by the majority of the populace, Timur dedicated his efforts for monetary gain and, ultimately, his own personal profit. Timur and Tadashi lost their parents at young ages (though Timur's are still alive while Tadashi's aren't), but Tadashi was the only one who was able to move past this loss and develop an optimistic outlook on life while Timur remained bitter, cynical, pessimistic, and sour. Tadashi acted as the guardian and paternal figure for his younger brother in place of their parents, while Timur maintains a strained and tense relationship with his younger sister, whom he bickers with frequently. Tadashi, thus, was compassionate and prioritised the needs of loved ones and friends before his own, while Timur is self-sufficient and cares only of himself and his own necessities. Timur physically mirrors Tadashi in terms of physique, build, stature (approximately 6'0" or 1.82 metres ), and attire.

{{sup|Regarding his individual personality, Timur is the polar opposite of Tadashi. He exhibits great intelligent like Tadashi but prefers to utilise his potential to benefit only himself and his own personal needs (whereas Tadashi was devoted to helping others). Timur can be somewhat arrogant and cocky when noticed or praised by others for his work, but he generally prefers to fly under the radar and keep to himself rather than openly showboating or flaunting. Fiercely independent and self-sufficient, he favours minding his own business instead of collaborating with others or sharing ideas, and he can sometimes act over-sensitively when his own individual thinking is criticised or questioned by others. As a result, he does not fare well with group work or collaborative projects, instead opting to work on his own. Unlike Tadashi, Timur is sourly pessimistic with hints of self-deprecation and self-loathe in his everyday speech. Timur possesses his own charm and charisma like Tadashi, but he is prone to fits of obscenities or shouting when others don't fulfill his requests or orders properly. As such, Timur is quite judgmental and critical of others and the traits he personally views as unfavourable, most notably Tadashi's "happy-go-lucky" optimism and selflessness. Timur also does not handle failure or errors well and therefore strives to be seen as an equal to those he admires or deems as models. He also has a tendency to talk-back and resist demands from others he views as otherwise pointless, incorrect, or overly controlling, most notably with Professor Callaghan during his enrollment at SFIT. In the face of wrongdoing, however, Timur (similar to Hiro) is quick to take action and impulsively seek revenge over the culprit without critical consideration of the scenario.}}

Familial Background
Timur Maksharipa Malsagov was born on May 15th, 2011 (the film takes place in the year 2032), in the city of South San Fransokyo to parents Maksharip Israpilovich Malsagov (Ingush: Малсагнаькъан Исрапила Макшарип; Russian: Мальсагов Макшарип Исрапилович) and Gulzhan Olzhasovna Aubakirova (formerly Malsagova; Kazakh Cyrillic: Гүлжан Олжасқызы Әубәкірова; Kazakh Arabic: گۇلجان ولجاسقىزى اۋباكىروۆا; Kazakh Latin: Gúljan Oljasqyzy Áýbákirova; Russian: Аубакирова Айжан Олжасовна), immigrants from Kazakhstan. Maksharip — a pure Ingush whose family had been forcibly deported to Central Asia from Ingushetia during the Second World War — hailed from the city of Karaganda, while Gulzhan, of Kazakh and little Volga Tatar descent, was from Ayagoz. As youths, both served the Soviet Union — Maksharip was a soldier for the Red Army while Gulzhan worked as an engineer — and the two met in their late teens through Komsomol (a Soviet Communist youth program). Though neither was particularly religious due to strong Soviet influence (Maksharip's family was Sunni Muslim, while Gulzhan's was atheist and historically Muslim-Tengrist), Gulzhan converted to Islam upon her marriage to Maksharip. The couple had two separate wedding ceremonies: the first following Ingush customs (for Maksharip's family) and second, under Kazakh tradition (Gulzhan). Following their wedding, the Malsagovs immigrated to South San Fransokyo, United States.

Early Life
{{sup|Timur was born and raised in South San Fransokyo, which had a stronger Asian demographic than San Fransokyo to the north (i.e. there was a larger population of Chinese, Filipinos, Indians, Vietnamese, etc ). He was born two years before his younger sister, Madina. The two children were raised in an middle-class family, and they received a fairly irreligious uprbringing by their mother, though Gulzhan preferred to label herself as a "cultural Muslim" rather than a full atheist. Maksharip, on the other hand, wished to raise Timur and Madina as Sunni Muslims (in accordance to his own family tradition), which caused tension with Gulzhan over which faith the children would follow. In addition, as Maksharip decided to pursue a career as a traditional folk musician for Ingush instruments, Gulzhan wished to continue her occupation as an engineer — whereas Gulzhan was determined to move to San Fransokyo for more job opportunities in science, Maksharip wanted to remain in South San Fransokyo for a simpler lifestyle away from the urban bustle. As a result of multiple arguments and disagreements regarding their family religion and residence, Maksharip and Gulzhan separated when Timur was aged four years old (Madina was two). Maksharip remained in South San Fransokyo while Gulzhan moved to San Fransokyo to pursue engineering, but the former couple agreed that their children would spend "equal" time with each parent by switching homes every two weeks; while Timur was with his father, Madina would be with Gulzhan, and vice versa. As a result, Timur was never particularly close to his younger sister, as they rarely spent leisure time together (apart from the rare occasions when Gulzhan would bring them both to amusement parks or the beach).

{{sup|As such, Timur attended a private school in San Fransokyo, which his mother personally provided payment for. As a child and adolescent, Timur was interested in psychology and the human mind with the desire to become a forensic psychologist. It eventually became a hobbyist activity for him, as he'd read articles and books on the topic during his leisure time. Like Hiro Hamada years later, Timur was involved in the underground sport of Bot Fighting, though he was more of a spectator who would bet on players and their bots rather than participate himself. With his knowledge of player techniques and fighting styles, he managed to make small earnings as a bettor. Timur attended Yoshitaka Okazaki High School (YOHS) in San Fransokyo, along with the late Tadashi Hamada. Both boys were members of the school's prestigious robotics team, and as graduation neared, both Tadashi and Timur entered the SFIT science exhibition (the same event Hiro joined) with their own prototypes of experimental technology. Timur, who ultimately decided to pursue a career in neuroscience, entered the exhibit with an early design of a neurotransmitter headband — the same tech featured by Hiro for his microbots. Alistair Krei initially took interest in Tadashi Hamada's invention for profit, though after the latter's rejection of Krei's offer, the businessman turned to Timur. Timur, unlike Tadashi and Hiro, accepted Krei's deal for his technology to be featured by Krei Tech Industries for further development. Due to Timur's agreement with Krei, former Professor Robert Callaghan took an immediate disliking to Timur and favour for Tadashi.}}

{{sup|Following the exhibition, Timur was accepted into the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology under funding by Krei Tech. He moved out of his mother's townhouse and into his own apartment in San Fransokyo with roommate Rohit Srivastava. Along with Tadashi, he was placed into Professor Callaghan's robotics class, of which all students were required to design and develop their own piece of tech for a large project. Timur continued to improve his neurotransmitter headpiece, while Tadashi began his initial tests for a prototype of Baymax. Under Krei's directive, Timur's original neurotransmitter design would be used in the military as a means of nonverbal, long-distance communication and exchange of messages between soldiers on the battlefield as a technological adaptation of the superpower telepathy. However, Professor Callaghan pursued in his distaste for Timur due to his connection to Alistair, and Callaghan would deliberately give the latter a difficult time in his class, be it through extra homework, harsher demands for projects, or outright scorn. Dissatisfied with Callaghan's treatment, Timur ultimately decided to drop out of SFIT on his own accord, thereby nullifying his pact with Krei and abandoning his neurotransmitter headgear at the school. With his roommate, Rohit, Timur was able to set up a small phone and laptop repair booth in a mall, where he currently works.}}

{{sup|Unbeknownst to him, the neurotransmitter had been confiscated by Professor Callaghan, who studied its workings extensively for his future plans of revenge against Krei. He passed on Timur's blueprints and instructions to Tadashi Hamada, who later handed the guide to his younger brother, Hiro, for his microbot project.}}

Big Hero 6
Timur had long since dropped out of SFIT, but he was present at the science exhibit the night of the fire. He witnessed Hiro's demonstration of his microbots, during which he noticed that Hiro's neurotransmitter was rooted from his own former idea. Realising that it had to be Tadashi who had taken over his own technology and passed it on to Hiro, Timur angrily confronted the Hamada brothers and their friends over Tadashi's supposed thievery. Timur was the last person to be pulled out of the crumbling building before losing consciousness. Before the blast, he had encountered a man (unbeknownst to him at the time, Callaghan) stealing Hiro's microbots and unsuccessfully attempted to retrieve the neurotransmitter band back for himself. He was immediately transported to the hospital for care, but he was later questioned by the police about the incident. The SFPD had discovered "evidence" (deliberately compiled together by Callaghan) at the site which would incriminate Timur as the culprit behind setting the expo hall ablaze. He was thus arrested by the SFPD and taken to the police department for further interrogation, with his supposed motive being to extract revenge on Professor Callaghan for his expulsion years ago and to eliminate his long-time academic rival, Tadashi Hamada. The fact that Timur was the original creator of the neurotransmitter technology integrated into the microbots (which had mysteriously disappeared during the fire) and because they believed Tadashi had "stolen" Timur's idea raised some eyebrows. Though Timur protested these accusations, he was detained at the police department for several weeks before the identity of a potential suspect and supervillain, Yokai, was discovered. Timur had hoped to unveil the identity of the masked man himself to obtain vengeance for his false imprisonment, though he was ousted by the Big Hero 6, much to his dismay. After Callaghan was apprehended through the efforts of the Big Hero 6, Timur was officially released from police custody.

Background
{{sup|Madina Malsagova (Ingush: {{Transcription|Малсагнаькъан Макшарипа Мадина|Malsagnäq'an Maksharipa Madina}} ; Kazakh Cyrillic: {{Transcription|Мәдина Малсагова|Madina Malsagova}}; Kazakh Arabic: ٴمادىينا مالساگوۆا) is the younger sister of Timur, who was born two years after her elder brother in South San Fransokyo. As of the events of Big Hero 6, she is aged nineteen years old. Madina currently attends San Fransokyo Mizuno University and is majoring in linguistics — she particularly specialises in languages of the Caucasus, primarily of the Vainakh branch (Chechen and Ingush) and also of the Circassian languages, Abkhaz, and Abaza. Extremely knowledgeable of world history, cultures, and languages, Madina can come off as a prideful and cocky show off when speaking to others about topics she finds interesting. Through her mother, Madina is fascinated in the Russian language and Russian history, particularly of the Soviet Union and Communist Russia.

{{sup|She is portrayed by Chechen singer Kheda Khamzatova.}}

Trivia

 * Her favourite course in high school was AP World History, of which she obtained a "5" on the exam. She was also the president of YOHS's History Club for two years.
 * She enjoys wearing traditional costumes of various world cultures, including her own native Ingush and Kazakh. Madina owns a vast collection of folk dresses and hats from around the world, including a Caucasian cylindrical papakha, Soviet-era Russian ushanka, Sindhi topi, Central Asian tubeteika, a Uyghur doppa, and an Indonesian-Malay songkok.
 * Madina speaks fluent English and Russian, with an intermediate grasp of Ingush.
 * As a teenager, she once ran a website that offered a collection of Soviet-created Russian names.
 * {{sup|On some social media, she would go by the alias "Lemira" (Лэмира), which is a Soviet Russian name.

Relationship with Timur
Madina and Timur share a classic sibling rivalry, and the two generally do not get along well when forced to work together or compromise. While Madina is hotheaded, demanding, and sometimes imposing, her brother is fiercely independent and is wary of authoritarian figures. Ever since childhood, both would compete with one another to become the sibling most skilled in a certain activity or most knowledgeable of their family cultures (this usually manifested as a race to see who could learn Ingush the quickest and speak the language the most fluently).

Etymology
Timur{{sup|(Ingush, Kazakh Cyrillic: {{Transcription|Тимур|Timur}}; Kazakh Arabic: تىيمۋر) is a name of Turkic origin meaning "iron", derived from the Turkic root temür. Usage of the name is popular among Muslim ethnicities of the former Soviet Union and present-day Russia, especially in the Caucasus, Central Asia, and among Turkic peoples. It was borne by a famous 14th-century Turco-Mongol leader, Timur the Lame (Persian: تيمور لنگ‎) or Tamerlane, who was the founder of the Iranised Muslim Timurid Dynasty.

Trivia

 * Though English is his first language, Timur also speaks Ingush — his father's native tongue — as Maksharip does not speak English fluently. He can speak and understand the language fluently as well as read and write in the Ingush Cyrillic alphabet. Gulzhan never made any efforts to teach Timur and Madina the Kazakh language, but she did attempt to teach them Russian (only basic phrases and words, however). Madina, Timur's sister, fluently speaks English and Russian; the latter was a result of a personal interest in the language and culture.
 * Timur's parents couldn't agree on which name to give their son (his father wanted an Ingush name, while his mother wanted a Soviet-era Russian name), but they eventually compromised on a name used in both of their ethnic cultures (i.e. Ingush and Kazakh). His father initially wanted to name him "Safarbek" (Сафарбек), while his mother suggested "Melor" (Мэлор).
 * His father hails from the city of Karaganda, Kazakhstan, while his mother is from Ayagoz. Maksharip's family was originally from Ingushetia, Russia, but they were deported from their home to Kazakhstan (then the Kazakh SSR) during World War II.
 * One of his favourite foods is olgash, a type of Ingush bread. He also enjoys myulchi bokkeum (멸치볶음), or Korean spicy fried anchovies.
 * Timur is always misidentified when it comes to ethnicity, and he claims that he is most mistaken for Latino, Thai, Filipino, just or "mixed".
 * Timur, Madina, and their mother used to visit Kazakhstan every year during his summer vacations, mainly to Gulzhan's hometown of Ayagoz as well as Astana and Almaty. The fact that Timur didn't speak Kazakh remained sensitive to him whenever he visited Kazakh-speaking family members. Maksharip, on the other hand, has not returned to Kazakhstan since the initial move to the United States.
 * He curses quite frequently, and his obscenities can sometimes be directly targeted at others. This is Timur's own personal way of releasing anger or frustration, as he is not one to engage in fights or use brute physical force.
 * In Japanese, his name would be written as "" in katakana. This rendering of his name in Japanese was used on official documents regarding his arrest by the SFPD.
 * Timur can play the dombra (домбыра), a two-stringed folk Kazakh lute. He began learning to play it himself out of his own self-interest in the instrument at the age of thirteen. Prior to the dombra, Timur had contemplated playing the Kazakh kobyz (қобыз) and the related Tatar and Bashkir dumbyra (думбыра). As he mostly learned through visual samples or YouTube Videos (all written instructions were in Kazakh or Russian), Timur can't read sheet music.
 * His favourite song is "Aday" (Адай күйі), a traditional fast-paced song by the folk instrumentalist Kurmangazy. Timur can primarily play traditional songs, though he does know a few contemporary Western ones.
 * Timur is similar to Tadashi in several aspects:
 * Both are of mixed ethnic origin, with Timur being Ingush and Kazakh while Tadashi is Japanese and European.
 * Both have a younger sibling.
 * Both Timur and Tadashi faced family troubles at an early age; Timur's parents divorced when he was four years old while the Hamada parents died.
 * Both were inventors and former students of SFIT.
 * He frequently watches the BuzzFeed Unsolved: True Crime series on YouTube, which Timur has been interested in since adolescence.

Scrapped Concepts

 * The concept directly preceding Timur was a female character named Anar Serikbaeva, who was of full Kazakh heritage. She was a bot-fighting bettor who would place bets on the robots she believed would triumph in certain matches. Anar's ethnicity was later changed to half-Ingush and half-Kazakh, which paved the way for the concept of Timur. The core characteristics of Anar were ultimately transferred to Timur's sister, Madina.
 * During early development, Timur was intended to be named "Ruslan" (Руслан), which is also a Turkic name widely found in the Caucasus and in Central Asia. This was eventually replaced with "Timur" as the creator believed it resonated better with the character.
 * Essentially, Timur is a blend of several scrapped characters: the aforementioned Anar, former engineering student Isaac Avshalumov (who was Mountain Jewish) who had a personal vendetta with Robert Callaghan, SFIT dropout and mobile phone repairer Rohit Sarkar (of Bengali origin), and hacker Daur Avidzba (an Abkhazian).
 * In an older plot, after leaving SFIT, Timur was supposed to become a baker (at the time, his father owned an Ingush bakery in South San Fransokyo). After Maksharip's occupation was changed from a bakery owner to a musician, this was discarded.
 * Timur was going to attend a private Islamic school (Al-Amin), but this was removed after his parents were developed to be more secular and non-pious Muslims.
 * His original model was intended to be American actor Alex Wolff.
