The Art of Ryuusuke Mita

Dragon Half

Character Guide Volume 3


Characters listed in order of appearance.
(PC == Prime Characteristics.)

Gya

A kaiser dragon, that seems to have some relation to Mana, dating back to before Mana married Rouce.) Finally killed by Dick Saucer, who mistakes Gya for Mink. Saucer carves his initial in Gya's chest at the end, after invoking his magic "Saucer Special." However, Gya is brought back by a certain female vampire. When Gya is defeated, Saucer leaves his pendant lying on the ground (it is found by Pia and handed to Mink.)

PC: VERY strong, and never affected by anything Mink does. When drawn in chan form, has a dark triangular nose on a white face, and teary, apologetic eyes. And a large 'S' on its chest.





Gason

Reporter for Undead Television news. He and his cameraman are covering Saucer's fight with Gya. When he first appears, he hands Mink the wrong business card (the first card is for Akemi-chan, a phone-sex hooker.)

PC: A troll with a necktie. His cameraman is a normal human.





Lora (or Lola)

When Vena decides to throw a party at her castle, Mink dresses up in disguise and crashes it. She introduces herself to Saucer as Lora, and the two of them have a wonderful time. Especially when Mink returns the pendant to Dick. However, Vena sees Mink's tail and tries to kill Mink; in the process, Vena freezes all of the guests, and Lora escapes before Saucer can discover that she's actually Mink. In the final assault, Mink throws a statue at Vena, who tries to freeze it. The spell backfires, and Vena succeeds in freezing herself, as she curses Mink's taunting face.

PC: Dark hair gathered into a ponytail with a string of pearls, big dewy eyes, and a ballgown. When drawn in chan form, is 30 pounds overweight. Horns don't show.





On page 72, Dug and Dama Ramu are shown combining forces, with Dama Rama now nothing more than a head with springy arms and feet.





Copian

First appears as a doctor who is administering to Mink's poison stinger-bite. Then turns out to be the giant scorpion that stung Mink in the first place.





War Cat

While Mink is helpless in Copian's clutches, Pia, Mappy, and Rufa go looking for the cure for the poison. They come across War Cat, who turns out to be a were-human. Rufa keeps War Cat subdued (actually, seduced) to allow Pia and Mappy to continue on.





Beraudo G

(Great Blood): The spiny walking plant is back, and now stands 6 feet tall. However, it succeeds in entangling itself in its own tendrils, and Pia escapes unharmed. The leaf from Blood G is used to cure Mink (done through simple contact of leaf to skin.)





Heavy Dama Ramu

Dug gives Dama Ramu a war robot's body. He can now combine with Mecha Rashii Mark II, to become a fighter bomber. But, when Dug throws a spinning spell, it not only affects Mink and Rufa, but HDR as well. When Dug casts a levitation spell on a huge boulder to crush Mink, HDR (completely out of control at this point) crashes into Dug, and the two of them disappear in the explosion of the interrupted spell.





Shimon Delamonte

Another young king. His problem is: his land is covered in zombies. In his possession is a sword useful against vampires (the Minik Cross Sword.) However, no one has been able to remove it from its stone scabbard. The secret to this sword lies in a well occupied by a fish-guardian.

PC: Young, attractive, collar-length black hair, and is constantly showering people with gold coins as a reward for the most trivial actions.





Ralph

Shimon's advisor and aide. And Rufa's next love target.

PC: Collar-length light brown hair, cloth head-circlet, young male, and wearing court robes.





Mega-Mink

This is the first time we see Mink starting to lose control. She becomes incredibly strong and vicious, her eyes look like a snake's, and her fangs grow longer. She can not remember what she has done, when she reverts to normal, but especially enjoys bouncing Pia like a rubber ball. Later, she is told that if this continues unchecked, she will turn into some unbelievably ugly monster (much like what had happened to the kaiser dragon, Titan.) However, she doesn't convert to Mega-Mink at all in Volume 4.





Dedorai-sama

(Could also be Deadly-sama, or Deidre-sama): A female vampire that is first seen only in the shadows as she re-animates Gya. VERY, VERY strong and evil. Was once Azatodeth's consort, and they spent many happy years romping around and killing helpless peasants. Now, she lives in the caves below the mountains, with her four handmaidens.





Vampire Gya

He has returned as one of the undead. The main distingushing marks are the "S" on his chest, and the white headband put on the dead as part of the burial services. Is finally destroyed completely by the Mega-Mink.





Neo-Mink

As the Mega-Mink exhales a mighty ball of flame to melt Gya, she is transformed to what we now see today. (That is, she has become a little bit more of a monster.) She now has larger leathery wings, and three horns on each side of her head.) She is also a LOT stronger than before.





Ars

One of Deidre's handmaidens. This one relies on technology. Her armored suit has field generators for shoulder pads. When she faces Dug, she defeats him easily. Whenever she meets someone new, she beats them up, and then says, "Pleased to meet you." She succumbs to Mink when, protecting herself with a forcefield from Mink's non-stop dragon flame, her air runs out after 30 minutes.

PC: Very attractive, with long, light green hair, a tight-fitting body suit under the skimpy armor, earrings, and a symbol on her forehead and armor plates. (The symbol is circular, with a horizontal line dividing it in two. Near the center, the line forms a little half-circle, dipping downwards. At the center of the symbol is a small black dot.) Is associated with earth.





Namaz Prince

The guardian of the well containing the scroll describing how to remove the Minik Cross Sword from its rock. The Prince is a big fish (head, tail, and all) stuck on top of the lower half of a normal person. He tries using a trident on Mink, but has no effect. He tries body tackling her, and knocks himself out. Does not appear again.





Merami Frea

Another of Deidre's handmaidens.

PC: Flowing black hair, soft tight-fitting clothing (skimpy), and a skull-brooch attached to her cloak. The symbol on her forehead is a tear-drop with a one-eyed smiley-face in the center, and two little triangles on either side. Is associated with fire.





Bufu Earoga

Another of Deirde's handmaidens.

PC: A fat, vacant-faced blimp that inhales and exhales in huge gusts. Is associated with air (of course.) Her symbol is the inverse of Ars'.





Beautiful Jiisanz

The last of Deidre's handmaidens.

PC: A beautiful blond airhead with cat-ears. Her symbol is a heart, and she is associated with water. (Basically, when you get her crying, she will flood a large cavern.)





Mig

Mig Son of Azatodeth, and Dug's brother. Another tricyclops, but actually one of the few good looking ones. He is very strong, and has a wide variety of weird spells that he likes to use. Unfortunately for him, he has one crippling weakness that other characters like to capitalize on: he is still rather young, as far as demons go, and has a teddy bear named Kuma, and wears Kuma-san underwear. This weakness causes him a great many problems.

PC: A dark elf in appearance, with black fur on the tips of his enlongated ears. Wears a dark cloak cinched in front by a gold ring, and with big shoulder pads. Usually looks and behaves like a small child, but is actually closer to what an 18-year old human would look like.





Rogue

Rogue Mig's sensitive older brother. Rogue claims that he hates watching people suffer, but he's actually got a meaner streak than Mig. He also likes to build machines of destruction, especially androids that ressemble nubile young women. The destruction caused by these androids is usually focussed on Mig and Rogue, rather than Mink and friends.

PC: Like Mig, only white skinned and with a headband. His cloak is white, with black dots all over it (like it's covered with soot.) Normally, it is impossible to tell whether Rogue is male or female. Can usually be found either brooding, or working on his next war robot. Appears about 19 or 20.





When Mig and Rogue first appear, Dug has just been defeated by Ars, and has crawled back to his brothers' underground lair. Mig is so disgusted by Dug's performance that, with Rogue's approval, he ties his little brother up, and hangs him from the ceiling. Then, whenever Mig gets upset for some odd reason, he relaxes by casting spells of pain on Dug. After this scenerio, Dug can be recognized as the three-eyed thing suspended by a rope, and in constant hurt.
