Mimic

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

The Mimic is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. They are typically monstrous treasure chests of a sickly color.

Characteristics

Essentially, Mimics are advanced forms of Canniboxes. Where the lesser form 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.

Appearances

Dragon Quest III

First game to feature both the Man-Eater Chest and Mimic.
