Character sheet commission for @obscurelyscandinavian of their ADORABLE mimic girl, Q!

Honestly when they first approached me with this design, I was already excited. But I got more and more into it the more I worked on her. T^T I love her so so much!

Reblogging for both the D&D fans and the gender fans.

Creature idea: Domesticated Mimic

Originally posted by parkersimmonsyall

Taken from the wild at a very early age or born into captivity, the Domestic Mimic shares many traits with their wild cousins but differs in a few key ways:

  • Unlike their solitary untamed counterparts, Domestic Mimics have pack-bonded with their humanoid companions to the point that, even when released, they no longer thrive alone. They will seek out companionship or become distressed if left without company.
  • Domestic Mimics habitually take on a preferred inanimate form, usually one that allows closer bonding with their pack-mates by imitating humanoid facial features. This can either be achieved by resembling dolls or stuffed animals or by adding humanoid features to otherwise featureless objects; for example cartoonish eyes, mouths and limbs. Whilst many find this offputting, advocates of the Domesticated Mimic argue that it is cute.
  • Though naturally silent creatures, Domestic Mimics can learn responses to several command words or gestures and take to training well due to their curious nature. It is important to set boundaries for your Mimic early on in your relationship to avoid behavioural problems down the line.
  • Domestic Mimics tend to have a friendly and easygoing temperament, seeking affection and to please their pack mates, making them good family pets. Their relaxed demeanour can lead to laziness and handlers are reminded to exercise their Mimics every day to avoid health problems.

If you are considering a Domestic Mimic as a pet, please consider adopting from a reputable rescue centre that has freed them from the numerous Demonic Cults that consider these gentle creatures ‘status’ monstrosities.

But also y’all realise there’s so many more shenanigans you can use this for when you remember Mimics don’t just have to be treasure chests:

  • Literally any of the furniture from Beauty and the Beast (minus the singing)
  • Herby
  • Creepy dolls of all varieties
  • Oh shit! A shady ventriloquist Bard who uses their pet Mimic to masquerade as a brilliant magician
  • That one shoe from Who Framed Roger Rabbit

Add more!

Designs for a bag of holding and bag of consuming I want to use in my webcomic!

In my webcomic magic items can change form once attuned to better fit their user.
