Ascaris was a mute assassin in Rome. In July 64, he was hired by a centurion to assassinate Maximus Pettulian, which he succeeded in doing. When the First Doctor claimed that he was Maximus, the centurion believed that Ascaris had failed, but gave him another chance. When he tried to kill the Doctor, the Doctor fought back, and when Vicki Pallister joined the melee, Ascaris fled out the window. A previous failure had caused the centurion to cut out his tongue, causing his muteness. (TV: The Romans)

- In Vor's Prize, Captain Vor was seen using the Ascaris in an attempt to capture the player. His Ascaris is capable of taking over a Tenno's physiology, their transmission systems, and even shut down the Tenno's own free will, making them obedient. As this Ascaris is based off Corpus technology, the Corpus-designed Ascaris Negator can be used to remove the restraint. Captain Vor's Ascaris possesses a fail-safe system against tampering however, making the implanted parasite detonate and kill its host unless its controller, Captain Vor, is killed.

- In Vor's Prize, Captain Vor was seen using the Ascaris in an attempt to capture the player. His Ascaris is capable of taking over a Tenno's physiology, their transmission systems, and even shut down the Tenno's own free will, making them obedient. As this Ascaris is based off Corpus technology, the Corpus-designed Ascaris Negator can be used to remove the restraint. Captain Vor's Ascaris possesses a fail-safe system against tampering however, making the implanted parasite detonate and kill its host unless its controller, Captain Vor, is killed. In-game, the Ascaris' primary effect is to halve the Tenno's maximum shields, making missions more difficult due to the reduced protection. This effect only activates twice: first when the Tenno rescue Darvo from captivity, and second when the Tenno infiltrate a Grineer Galleon in order to learn of Captain Vor's whereabouts.
