Phasir (voiced by Ed Gilbert) is a character in the Disney animated TV series Aladdin. He appears frequently throughout the series. His first appearance is in the episode "Do the Rat Thing", but he is not named or given any background until the episode "The Prophet Motive", where he is identified as Phasir, an old seer and powerful wizard who turned his evil giant brother, Fashoom, into stone many centuries ago. The end of that episode also reveals that he is actually a cyclops, but he wears bands over his one eye, which makes him appear to be just blind (it is never made clear whether he actually is blind or merely pretends to be in order to hide his eye).
There is also evidence that he has some control over time, as shown in "The Sands of Fate" where a mystical gem capable of replaying time was being delivered to him. Later episodes, such as "Eye of the Beholder" and "While the City Snoozes" hint that Phasir has had many dealings with Mirage in the past and may have once been in love with her (he states to himself that love will one day lead Mirage back to him).
