We in the Northern Hemisphere tend to forget this Fun Fact – Christmas and the rest of the so-called “Winter Holidays” are celebrated in the Middle of Summer by all those good folks in the Southern Hemisphere! As a fun reminder this Christmas week, I give you Toon RPG stats for the One & Only Heat Miser, from The Year Without a Santa Claus, yet another blast from my past of silly Christmas TV specials. I have also invited his brother, the One & Only Snow Miser, to the party.
HEAT MISER
Occupation: Controller of Heat & Hot Weather
Description: A stocky giant – but shorter than his brother Snow Miser – with pointed ears. Heat Miser’s face is, oddly, more pale than flushed. His fiery red hair stands straight up and sometimes is fire. He wears a red top and yellow pants or leggings.
Natural Enemies: Santa Claus, Santa’s elves and reindeer, North Wind (big brother)
Beliefs & Goals:
(Goal) Keep the world hot-Hot-HOT!
(Goal) Thwart and show up Snow Miser.
Santa is unfair to me.
Mother (Nature) loves Snow Miser more.
I’m TERRIFIED of Mother Nature – & you should be too!
