Features

Passives

  • Perfect Masquerade

    While the Mimic has not revealed itself, it is indistinguishable from the environment it is hiding in and considered Hidden.

Actions

  • Ambush

    While Hidden, make an attack with advantage against a target in Melee range. On a success, deal Standard attack damage and the target is made Vulnerable until it clears a HP. After the attack, the Mimic is no longer Hidden.

  • Grappling Tongue

    Spend a Fear to make an attack against a target in Very Close range. On a success, the target takes 1d8+3 phys damage and is Restrained until the Mimic takes at least Major damage or the target succeeds on a Strength roll.

  • Shapeshifting

    Mark a Stress to shape change into a mundane item. If no other creature witnessed the act, the Mimic becomes Hidden.
