Slime. A Mimic exudes a thick slime that acts as a powerful adhesive, holding fast any creatures or items that touch it. Opponents Grabbed by the Mimic cannot get free while the Mimic is alive without removing the adhesive first. A weapon that strikes a Mimic is stuck fast unless the wielder succeeds on a DC 18 Reflex save. A wielder that fails the Reflex save can attempt a DC 18 Athletics check to needed to pry their weapon off of the Mimic. Strong alcohol or universal solvent dissolves the slime and can be applied with a successful melee or ranged attack, though the Mimic can still inflict the Grabbed condition afterwards. A Mimic can dissolve its slime at will with a free action. The slime breaks down 2d4+1 rounds after a Mimic dies.
Actions
Change Shape. As a Double Action, a Mimic can assume the general shape of any Medium object, such as a massive chest, a stout bed, or a door. A Mimic cannot substantially alter its size and its body is hard and has a rough texture, no matter what appearance it might present. A Mimic can change into another form as a double action or its own appearance as a single action.
Constrict. As part of the same action to maintain the Grabbed condition, a Mimic can constrict and inflict 2d8+3 bludgeoning damage.
Slam. Melee Strike +8/+3/-2 (unarmed) with 2d8+3 bludgeoning damage and inflicts the Grabbed condition (DC 18) with additional penalties from the Slime ability.
