POSITIVE:

> Genuine: with Mimic what you see is what you get, he sees no point in putting on a face for people to see.

> Good (deep down): behind all of that paranoia and dickishness, he honestly wants to be a good person, and see good in the world.

> Observant: Mimic has the amazing ability to pick up clues, read between the lines, and put them together. He's an excellent mystery solver, if he weren't so closed off he would be a good detective.

NEUTRAL:

> Obsessive: when Mimic likes something he is positively obsessed with it, he'll learn everything about it, there's no leisurely hobbies for him. This has the possibility to be good, if he needs to study or wants to learn something new, but this can absolutely go sour. Sometimes he obsesses over something so intensely that he forgets to eat, or take care of himself, for days on end.

> Defensive: Mimic is quite defensive, he is always on the trigger to defend himself from a threat, whether an intended threat or not.

> Formal: Mimic, despite being very much incompetent, is still formal, he acts as if everything thing is all good and proper, speaking calmly.

NEGATIVE:

> Closed Off: To put it simply, Mimic is nothing short of emotionally constipated, he shoves every bit of emotion down, hating it when anybody sees him showing emotion. This makes him seem emotionless to onlookers.

> Paranoid: Sometimes mimic goes to far, thinks people or forces are against him when they aren't. He doesn't trust most people at first, and rarely shares his secrets with anyone.

> Antisocial: Mimic didn't have any friends as a dragonet, he doesn't know social cues, or how to talk to people. He doesn't get jokes or references to things, people.

> Egotistical: Mimic has a hard time taking the blame for things, horrible at admitting when he's wrong, believing that he's always right, and can't be wrong.

> Jaded: despite being so young, Mimic is very jaded, he's already given up, he thinks he has life all figured out. It just sucks. Your only job is to live it.

LIKES >> his privacy, herbal teas, writing in his journal, proving people wrong.

DISLIKES >> his sister, know-it-alls, the Alliance.

SECRETS:

> his journal, people see him writing in it all the time, but they must never know its contents.

FEARS:

> the Alliance: he has theories that they're hiding something, an association that big has to have it's fair share of secrets and cover-ups.

> Haphephobia: Mimic has a strange fear of touch, even by someone he trusts. He hates crowds, even someone brushing up against him sends a shock through his body.

DREAMS:

> he gave up on dreams, the only thing he wants to be is right.

Baby Dragonet >
It was fall when he hatched, alongside his sister, Amereega. He was so different from his sister, she took all of the venom from him, leaving him dull, and sickly, while she remained vibrant and bright, oozing venom from her skin.

Mimic, no matter how much sun time he got, he stayed extremely dull.

His parents, Tinker and Calidrys, were quite concerned. With how sickly Mimic was, and how much Ame burned things.

Mimic always wanted to go out and play with his sister, but he caught illnesses easily, and he was often stuck at home recovering.
The pair were only partially raised by their parents, as the tribe all pitched in to help.

The two were often talked about, Ame was always praised, and seen with awe, everyone was perplexed with how she was, but every time they saw Mimic, they gave him looks of pity.
"Why don't you get an extra hour of sun time,"
"why don't you eat a little more?"
The rainwing felt distraught, the only thing he felt comfort with is the fact that he could camouflage himself oddly well, he could be invisible for hours, and no one would know the wiser. Sometimes he went invisible without even thinking about it. It made people leave him alone. They couldn't bother him if they didn't know where he was. It's not like many wanted to talk to him anyways, they always were so focused on his sister, Ame, so brightly colored and attention seeking. He hated it. His sister seemed to never be able to do anything wrong, when she got upset people would rush to her side, calm her down, assure her she didn't do anything wrong. When Mimic did something wrong he got some strange looks, as they plopped him down on a platform, convinced just a little more sun time would do him good. He learned just to bottle it up, when he was upset he would just sit, completely invisible in his room for days, pouring over books. His parents didn't notice sometimes. And Mimic was convinced they resented him. He hardly ate, drinking tea all the time, eating only to live, he didn't care about many things except for his books.

Dragonet > as soon as Mimic and Ame went to school, of course, Ame became the shining spotlight, everyone was fascinated with her oily scales, loving her jokes and infectious laughter. Mimic wasn't bullied, per se, he was just ignored, getting odd looks. He was kept home from school often, when he went to school he discovered he was allergic to lots of different foods, and discovered a new one every once in a while.

After a while Ame got into a rebellious phase, and decided to go as Dart, Mimic went along with it. At first he thought it wouldn't last, but she kept with it.

Sometimes he thought she didn't even know he existed until they got older. Dart asked Mimic to come along with her one day. He was surprised, he got a spark of hope that his sister would actually want to hang out with him, but that hope was broken when it turned out when he was just there to amuse her.

She once made him spread a rumor about himself just to make her look better, getting him to skip classes, he knew he was being used for entertainment but he kept going along with her, not even knowing why. The rainwing just… wanted to have a good relationship with his sister.

After a while it became too much to deal with, he hung out with her less and less, going back to his reclusive ways and distancing himself from her. It went back to the way it was. His sister got all of the attention from his parents and he remained invisible in his room. Living off of tea and small meals every once in a while. Obsessing over books and papers. No one noticed, everyone was too busy monitoring his sister.

She was selfish, he hated her, she had ruined his life, stole his venom, attention, love. When she reached out to him again it was almost not even a thought to reject her. She didn't deserve any attention from him, she already had enough.

When their parents had sent them off to an away school Mimic only became more isolated. He didn't do any of his work, lashing out at students and not talking to a soul, he started to keep a journal, he wrote in to constantly, writing out observations, thoughts, feelings. Dragons were meaner at this school and he got bullied quite a bit. People called him awful names: freak, spaz, half-dragon.
He became the most withdrawn he had ever been and no one cared.

Of course, he flunked out of school. They kicked him out and he had nowhere to go, he refused to go home, they would just ignore him again. He was about to just run off in the wild, when he discovered his sister was in the same boat. Somehow she convinced him to go with her, maybe he felt bad for her, he didn't really know.

When they arrived on the mezzo, they didn't have much money left, since this place seemed to have a bustling town, they both decided to stay. Pooling their money together and living under the same roof. Mimic did his best to avoid her, and was unsurprised when she didn't seem to care. He remained invisible when he wanted her to think he was gone, she never noticed. He clung to little tethers to keep him grounded, the Alliance was interesting, they were so big, and must have so many secrets, he spent his days secluded for the most part, writing in his journal and studying the Alliance, looking for conspiracy.

"Rise is one of the more decent dragons I've met, his art is unique, and dare I say, alluring. I'm compelled to trust him, though I dont know if that comforts me more than it scares me"

Allergens: tree nuts, strawberries, eggs, mold, cats, wheat, shellfish, pineapples.

Most of these just make him get hives, itchy eyes, runny nose, or an upset stomach, he's not deathly allergic to anything.


Venomless:
Mimic was born with no venom In his system. As well as being born weak, frail, and susceptible to the elements, rainwing venom hurts him more than usual. No matter how much sun he gets his scales never get bright and saturated, so he doesn't bother sitting in the sun anymore.

Journal:
Mimics journal is a simple and inconspicuous leather journal filled with the inner workings of his mind. He lets no one see this.
