Mim

"Who am I? Not important, STOP ASKING QUESTIONS, alright?"

- Mim in one of his letters

Mim is a time travelling hipster space-biker in No Time, who supposedly watches everything unfold in the game.

There are two sightings of Mim in the game. The 1st time Mim appears is in the game is during the Aurora quest, when he shows up hidden in the storm of Jupiter in 2032. This discovery was made by a user named Baku in the Lost in Days Official server on Discord. The 2nd sighting of Mim is under the Pine Lake bridge in the game's Main Menu which can be seen using the cinematic key commands, he disappears when you get too close to him, the same instance in Jupiter.

According to Erathor, Mim was 'contained' in The Cutrooms but had escaped to the story.

Appearance
He wears something that resembles a Viking helmet and an orange-colored outfit. He is equipped with a hovering futuristic motor bike that time travels. His face is taken from Ivan the Space Biker's model from Half-Life, who was a scrapped character from the game who would play the main character but was replaced by Gordon Freeman.

Epilogue
In the Epilogue of the game, the player reunites with Edward Athor after travelling to the future with the time machine and they reconcile. They talk about how they remember the events of the game and question if it all was really a dream or a gift from a Higher Power that has given them a chance to save everything. Edward suggests that the time machine should be dismantled and PC agrees, however, before they plan on how they will dismantle it, PC receives a letter from Mim telling him that he needs to figure out the secret of the island and that he cannot dismantle the machine yet.

After, Edward mentions that he is looking for his lost blueprints and that PC must look for them, PC eventually discovers the Unknown Destination chip, which takes the Time Machine to the year 9999, and they discover the Strange Dimension Safe House. While at the Safe House, the player can talk to the Home Keeper who tells the player that the Safe House was constructed for them by a common friend, which alludes to Mim.

At the Safe House, the player is able to customize it or switch it into different variations by purchasing the changes from the time travelling trader, Nazono. There are 4 other variations of the Safe Houses that can be chosen, these different Safe Houses were supposedly taken by Mim and put into a field that separates them from the outside world. In the book, Geography Around Pine Island, the section which focuses on Spider Cove writes that a settlement in the northern valley vanished at one point in time, that same location is where the Spider Cove Safe House resides.

Note 1/Strange note
This strange note appears when a Time Reset happens and leaving a box filled with items will cause Mim to take them and leave the note inside. This was the first note encountered by players.

Note 2/You Finished No Time letter
Seen at the end of the game at the start of Free roam. It Informs the player that Mim requires our help in something mysterious. Players have theorized he intends to share the 'secret' of the island.

Note 3/Epilogue letter
This letter appears in the Epilogue before the Time Machine is dismantled to end the game. It was written to hopefully redirect PC 's decision of destroying the machine to help Mim in his predicament.

Note 4/Time Fragments letter
This letter appears when you collect all of the Time Fragments scattered throughout the game. In the letter, Mim describes how PC needs to complete all of the side-quests in the story and suggests that the player reads the book, The Fellowship of the Ring to get the remaining clues to find and help Mim. Along with the letter, the Meta Key also appears for PC to use for something unknown.

Trivia



 * The name Mim, supposedly comes from one of the Petty-Dwarfs from The Silmarillion with the same name, Mîm, another reference to the Tolkien stories featured throughout the game. Mîm supposedly was originally a prank but Mîm became sentient in the game. Mîm also has inscriptions on some stones too, which one that was found most recently is one in St. Andrey that talks about what is planned for the city.


 * Erathor posted a image which shows that this inscription is a reference to a letter in Gothic ll, from a mighty alien dwarf, and Erathor also said that mîm supposedly (probably not actually) came from that game.
 * Mim is like G-Man from Half Life.
