Part 1:
Spyglass: thoomp
That’s why you need post it on your stuff.
All fun and games until the mimic pretends to be a post-it note
I like to think mimics cant replicate text. If not I’m gonna need a fancy mimic lens or start tapping my stuff with a wrench before I touch it.
I’ve often thought it’d be fun to let a party have a tame mimic as a pet. Not helpful in battle unfortunately, unless one of your opponents decides to take a looting break.
The Flee, Mortals! book has a mimic companion stat block. It can cover you and act as active camouflage.
My party do have a pet mimic. He’s called Philip and is mostly there for comic relief although he has been known to help with puzzles and things occasionally
Thrown weapon mimic, like a javelin. Enemy picks it up to throw back and bam, surprise bite!!!
Bonus Konsi?
Not a Konsi Mimic?
Closest I have is this:
Now I want Konsi christmas cookies!
A long time ago I did spend a few months experimenting with ratios to make my own cookie recipe, it makes really good chocolate chip cookies. Not very christmassy though.
OP delivers!
sprinkle something green and red and it becomes crissmass-y

Cover your phb in spray adhesive and leave it sitting on the table. As soon as someone touches it, shout “ROLL INITIATIVE!”
Actually, apply this to other random objects at the game table. A bag of chips, 1 can of soda in the fridge, every 3rd pencil, whatever.
Teleportation mimic will teleport you. To its stomach.
Breastplate mimic just wants to sink its mouth on your breasts.
Saddle mimic wants to lick your lowers parts.
No comment on outhouse mimic. We don’t talk about it.
Play Shattered Pixel Dungeon. You can get special mimics that can disguise as literally everything. A door, strength potion, the way to the next level, basically anything that looks useful. And of course they only appear as soon as you’ve forgotten to check for them.
Not my menstrual cup!
I’ve always been a fan of mimics being ladders or bridges.
And then we have Starfinder where a mimic can disguise itself as an entire planet!
This is similar to the premise of Prey.
The player handbook isn’t a problem, no one reads that thing.
It’s a good way to get rid of your rules lawyer. Everyone hates that guy anyway.
One D&D podcast I listen to had one be a house in Sigil. After they had dealt with the plot to use it for magic or something some of the party ended up feeding it animals much to the chagrin of the rest of the party but did save some other creatures living in the area from getting eaten.
I wanna share this in the group chat, but I don’t wanna give the GM any ideas xD
