Mimics are very much ambushers, using their ability to disguise to take their enemies by surprise. When a character approaches a Mimic while disguised, they will make a [[Perception]] [[Skill Check]] at [[Difficulty Class|DC]] 20. If failed, that character will be [[Initiative|Surprised]] as the fight starts. | Mimics are very much ambushers, using their ability to disguise to take their enemies by surprise.

The best approach | The best approach is to get up close to a Mimic before it can use it's lash attack, which can fling someone to a swift end down a chasm in the case of the Mimics in [[Grymforge]]. It is also wise to keep extra weapons on hand in case a character has theirs eaten from their bite attack or relying on your companions to kill the mimic to retrieve it from it's corpse. | ||
