==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.

Revision as of 06:41, 4 March 2022

For the monster class in Dragon Quest VII, see Mimic (vocation).

The Mimic is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series.

Introduced in Dragon Quest III, they are monstrous treasure chests of a sickly color.

Characteristics

Essentially, Mimics are advanced forms of 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 and/or remakes of the series have had Mimics as random encounter monsters.
