Canniboxes, like [[Mimic]]s, are monstrous {{chest}}s; the Cannibox is probably the most convincing of the chest-mimicking {{MFamilies}}s since it is colored like a traditional chest: brown, unlike the off-color palettes of the Mimic and [[Pandora's box]].

Being a lesser variety of the Mimic, Canniboxes usually don't have access to instant-death moves but, rather, [[Critical Hit|desperate attacks]] that can act as instant-death if the target's {{HP}} isn't sufficient enough to survive. An encounter with a Cannibox can usually be prevented by casting [[Peep]] on a chest to determine whether or not is a {{MFamilies}}, though this may not help any if Canniboxes wander the area like normal {{MFamilies}}s do.

Introduced in Dragon Quest III, it is a weaker version of the more common mimic and as such is usually the first container-mimicking monster encountered by the player.

Characteristics[edit | edit source]

Canniboxes, like mimics, are monstrous chests; the cannibox is probably the most convincing of the chest-mimicking monsters since it is colored like a traditional chest: brown, unlike the off-color palettes of the mimic and pandora's box.

Being a lesser variety of the mimic, canniboxes usually don't have access to instant-death moves but, rather, Desperate attacks that can act as instant-death if the target's HP isn't sufficient enough to survive. An encounter with a cannibox can usually be prevented by casting Peep on a chest to determine whether or not is a monster, though this may not help any if canniboxes wander the area like normal monsters do.
