Mimring Thunderscale (proper English name Radiance Lightning-Scale; proper Drakine name Mimring Atirifámi) is a Plated Firedrake and Jason Shaver's familiar and proxy after Jason ascends to godhood. He is also the brother of Starlight and Icelake Thunderscale.
Appearance
Normal
At about 35 feet long with a wingspan almost twice his entire length, Mimring has brilliantly metallic golden copper scales with darker copper plates along his neck, back, tail, wings, and limbs. Two swept-back ivory horns decorate his crested head, which sports a beaklike snout with a very sharp but small nose horn. Just below his horns are his ears and two colorful red-and-green fans, which flare open as a warning when Mimring is angry. His eyes are sharp and almost the exact same shade of green as Jason's, and his underbelly and wing membranes are a light golden bronze. His front legs are armed with two long blades at the joints, and three ivory claws. His back legs are very similar, but instead sport just one blade. From the plates on his back grow long, thin spines, tipped with black, until halfway down the tail, the tip of which is armed with a wicked blade. This blade is silver-black and very light, though sturdy and difficult to break.
Advanced Form (Cult of Ustream only)
Mimring's Advanced form is slightly bigger, stands on two legs, and is almost fully covered with golden-copper plates. He has four horns in this form, plus the blade on his tale is about twice the size and positioned like a switchblade rather than a razor. This blade is not often seen as it can fold into the scales on the tail to prevent it from dulling. His claws are almost crystalline and his fire, while having the same effects, is much more vibrant. Mimring's head is also slightly blunter, and his eyes are somewhat overshadowed by the thick plate that protects his head, but they are still a brilliant, glowing green that can be seen easily in dim lighting.

Personality
Cult of Ustream
Mimring is generally calm and cool-headed around most members of the Cult, but can become high-strung and aggressive around other dragons and absolutely ferocious if Jason is threatened. Vigilant and careful, Mimring can be considered Jason's guardian of sorts, and a "voice of reason" to keep his master grounded and on-course. By instinct, Mimring is highly protective of those he cares about, and will put his life on the line to defend them, but his main priority is and always will be Jason.

Combat
Fighting Style
Mimring has an aggressive, fierce fighting style that can easily switch between ranged and close quarters. At a distance, he uses his Spectrum Firebreath and electroimpery; when closer to his enemy, he will resort to claws, teeth, and the blades on his tail and forelegs. Conversely, he makes a very good support due to his healing fire, and even a "tank" of sorts due to his armored plates. Other than attacking, Mimring relies primarily on speed and agility in battle, especially in aerial combat.

Abilities
- Demon Energy (Cult of Ustream only): Mimring was given "Demon Energy" by Ziolang Hirasu to keep him alive long enough for Jason to be revived after having his soul taken by Death. Mimring has not yet figured out the potential of this energy, but it has seemed to make him more volatile and aggressive, as well as giving him access to a new range of "forms".
- Enhanced Speed and Agility: Firedrakes are very lean, agile dragons, and despite their armor, Plated Firedrakes are perhaps the fastest breed of armored dragon on Euthora. Mimring is no exception. His sheer aerial acrobatics are nearly unrivaled among the cult's dragons.
- Enhanced Senses: Most dragons have extremely clear vision, surpassing that of eagles. Mimring has this as well, and can see the ground perfectly clearly even when flying among the clouds. His hearing and sense of smell, while not as stellar as his vision, are better than that of most humans and nonsapient animals.
- Resistance to Heat: All Firedrake subspecies are well-known for their tolerance of heat, to the point where some individuals can surround themselves in flame or even lair in the lava of active volcanoes. This comes from the composition of their scales- which include mythril and orichalcum- and the dragon's blood, as well as their general affinity with flame.
Equipment
- Stone of Advancing (Cult of Ustream only): Mimring was given this stone-like scale by Lord X-Giga-X. It contains a powerful energy that, at command, allows the dragon to ascend to a state known as the Advanced Formation. When Mimring takes this form, he rises onto his hind legs as his body is covered with coppery-golden armor, and his speed, agility, and strength are greatly enhanced. This state lasts for about one hour.
Strengths & Immunities
Weaknesses & Fears
Relationships
Cult of Ustream
Mimring is typically neutral towards the other cultists. However, he is friendly with Stormshaper and Deathstorm, and loves Jason as one would love close family. He distrusts Kyton Haryn, but tolerates his presence. Mimring may treat his brother Starlight with anything from haughty disdain to a vicious hatred, depending on the circumstances, and may act dominant around any other dragon. He nurses a heavy distrust towards Lord X-Giga-X, even prior to the human's defection from the Cult, and is beginning to develop his master's hatred of the former Second-in-Command.
