==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Essentially, mimics are advanced forms of [[cannibox|canniboxes]]. Where the lesser form typically uses desperate attacks, the mimic will cast sudden-death spells in an effort to outright kill a party member, though it normally only has enough MP to perform the spell once. Usually lying in wait under the guise of a normal treasure chest, some installments of the series have had mimics as random encounter monsters.

Mimics may appear in the more advanced worlds, either disguised as a chest on the field or hiding amongst other chests, and possibly other mimics, in treasure rooms. A mimic can be bred by using a material pedigree and a [[box slime]] mate.

Randomly appearing chests in dungeons will often turn out to be mimics. The material and box slime pairing still applies when breeding for one.

Mimics are among the ranks of the [[Platiosi]] in the Plob, appearing in numerous stages <!--could probably specify here some time--> as standard {{chest}}s until approached. They can provide interesting roles in tank battles by either fetching ammo for the player or infiltrating the enemy tank to rattle the enemy by imitating a {{chest}}.

Mimics are among the ranks of the [[platiosi]] in the Plob, appearing in numerous stages <!--could probably specify here some time--> as standard chests until approached. They can provide interesting roles in tank battles by either fetching ammo for the player or infiltrating the enemy tank to rattle the enemy by imitating a chest.
Mimics appear as a part of the [[Yggdrasil's Altar]] stage, disguised as [[treasure chest]]s as usual. Defeating one will cause it to drop a random item.
