Heat Miser is a creature who lives in a volcano and controls the hot weather around the earth. He and his half-brother Snow Miser are the offspring of Mother Nature. Although he lives in the southern hemisphere, he and his brother regularly patrol the border of the North Pole. On one such occasion, Heat Miser attempted to destroy Jingle, Jangle and one of Santa's reindeer, Vixen. With a flash of heat lightning, Heat Miser struck them out of the sky, but the trio survived. The elves later accompanied Mrs. Claus to his lair within an active volcano to negotiate a deal for the weather in Southtown. Unwilling to cooperate, Heat Miser was summoned to the realm of Mother Nature and forced to compromise the weather with his brother for one day. Heat Miser has a flair for the dramatic, and entertains his guests with a dance backed up by his minions who look almost exactly like him, but smaller. Heat Miser has also appeared in the 2008 sequel, A Miser Brothers Christmas, which premiered December 13, 2008 as part of ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas holiday stunt programming.
