The Mimic
___ Armored and belligerent, a half-orc charges head first into a nest of giant spiders. The many-legged and many-eyed monstrosities look on greedily, expecting easy prey. But he opens his mouth and a torrent of flame spills forth, turning their webs to ash and scattering them like house pests. A half-elf, moving sight unseen, carefully crawls up the side of a slippery cavern wall and comes to a stop upside-down, the ambush set for a pack of unwary goblins headed her way. She knows all of their secrets, and she's only too willing to use them. Jaw set, a human stares down an approaching troll. The ravenous giant pulls back a clawed hand and is about to strike when its intended meal distends its mouth and suddenly swallows the larger creature whole, leaving no trace of the troll behind. Mimics are spellcasters of a different sort, wielding magics more commonly seen in the hands, claws, or tentacles of monsters. Many are scholars, but the training they undergo is decidedly more practical than theoretical. The best way to learn the tools of the trade is to contend with them. ### Monsters and Power Mimicry is esoteric and dangerous, its very nature rooted in the world beyond cities and walls. Its practitioners dedicate time and energy to understanding the various monsters which plague the land, not simply to destroy, but to emulate. mimics fight fire with fire, carefully studying mighty beasts, undead horrors, and alien abominations. In that pursuit they rely on select powers, honing their skills without being stretched thin. Many mimics are motivated by a sense of duty or justice. They have the tools to combat all manner of foul creature, and so stand as protectors to the powerless. Others follow more personal goals, adventuring simply to encounter strange new monsters and expand their repertoires. ### Weird Science Unfortunately, mimicry is a new endeavor and as such often fraught with misunderstandings and skepticism from the arcane establishment. It is also a double edged sword, trying to achieve what monsters can do without being labeled as a monster yourself. These social roadblocks lead most mimics to researching in the field, engaging with monsters up close and personal - not a task for the faint of heart but certainly a necessity. Many will join adventuring parties simply because it gives them better odds of survival while taking notes. \columnbreak

### Mimic Discipline At 1st level, you have started training in one of the Mimic disciplines of your choice: The Gourmand, Immortal Lion, Lore Master, Masquerader, Ringmaster, or Traveler each of which are detailed at the end of the class description. Each choice grants certain benefits and determines the ability score you will use for your Mimicries. Your choice grants you features at 6th level, and again at 10th, 14th, and 20th level. ### Mimicry Also at 1st level your study of monsters has reached a breakthrough revealing the art of Mimicry - studies and insights into other creatures that allow you to manifest the features and qualities of monsters. \columnbreak ### Mimicry Ability If one of your Mimicries requires a creature to make a saving throw or when you make a mimicry attack roll, your Mimicry Save DC and Mimicry Attack Modifier are calculated as follows (your Mimicry modifier is determined by your Mimic Discipline learning style):
**Mimicry Save DC** =
8 + your proficiency bonus + your Mimicry modifier **Mimicry Attack Modifier**
=
your proficiency bonus + your Mimicry modifier
#### Research Journal Your research journal is your repository of known mimicry. When you gain this feature at 1st level you add two species of your choice from the Case Studies table below, adding their related Mimicry to your research journal. \pagebreakNum ___ ##### Case Studies | Species | Mimicry Learned | |:---:|:-----------:| | Brass Dragon Wyrmling, Dragon | (Primordial) Sonic Scream | | Flumph, Aberration | (Cosmic) Limited Telepathy| | Giant Octopus, Beast | (Natural) Adaptive Camouflage | | Grey Ooze, Ooze | (Cosmic) Pseudopod Appendage | | Harpy, Monstrosity | (Mythical) Vanity Mirror | | Imp, Fiend | (Supernatural) Vermin Form | | Magmin, Elemental | (Primordial) Hide of the Ancients | | Needle Blight, Plant | (Natural) Natural Projectiles | | Pegasus, Celestial | (Sacred) Divine Will | | Pixie, Fae | (Mythical) Illumination | | Shadow, Undead | (Supernatural) Shadow Blend | #### Learning Mimicry When you successfully use your discipline's learning style on a creature you automatically learn that creature's species and type, creating a blank entry for that creature in your research journal (eg. Wolf is a species of type Beast; Pixie is a species of type Fey; and Zombie is a species of type Undead etc). You can work for 1 hour as part of a long rest, selecting a blank entry from your research journal to develop a new mimicry for it. Check the Schools of Monsterology table below and select one bestial mimicry that you meet the prerequisites for from the corresponding school of the creature's type. Your choice is added to the species entry in your journal. You can only know one mimicry for each species at a time, unless otherwise specified. You can replace the mimicry associated with an existing species in your journal by using your learning style on that species again and following the process described above, replacing the existing entry instead of learning a new mimicry during your hour's work. Doing so removes the old mimicry from your memorized list if it is currently memorized. #### Memorizing And Using Mimicry You memorize a list of mimicries from those you have available in your research journal. While memorized a mimicry is treated as a class feature for you, and you can make use of it as described. To memorize mimicry, choose any combination of mimicry up to the memorization limit for your level as shown on the mimic table. Using mimicry doesn't remove it from your list. You can change your list of memorized mimicry when you finish a long rest. Memorizing a new list of mimicry requires time spent studying your research journal and meditating: at least 5 minutes per mimicry. ### Libra At 2nd level, your extensive documentation on different species can be used to learn about creatures. As an action you can learn information about another creature, the DM reveals one of the following characteristics about it of your choice: - Highest Ability Score - Lowest Ability Score - Special Senses - Armor Class - Current Hit Points - A random condition or damage immunity (if any) - Condition immunities - Damage resistances - Damage vulnerabilities - Damage immunities - Is Legendary? (Can use legendary resistance or legendary actions) Once you use this feature, you can't learn additional information from the same creature again until you finish a short or long rest. ### Research Specialization Every Mimic has their favorite Monsterology schools to study, ensuring you additional insights going forward. Select two Monsterology schools as your areas of specialty. From 3rd level, every time you gain a level in this class your research reveals one new creature of a type related to one of the schools (your DM can advise you of an appropriate creature for your level). You can add a new blank entry for that species to your research journal. ### Ability Score Improvement When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature. ### Bestial Might At 5th level, attacks granted to you by Mimicry and Class Features are imbued with your growing power and now count as magical for the purposes of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage. \pagebreakNum

To be a mimic is to never hesitate in times of desperation, to carry on without worry or fright.

If you are able to find and successfully use your learning style on a creature that is a legendary creature, you may select a legendary mimicry from its related school in addition to your regular mimicry. You can only memorize one legendary mimicry at a time as part of your memorized mimicry list, but you can memorize an additional legendary mimicry at 13th, 15th, and 17th level. ### Mimic Disciplines The art of distilling power from monsters is obscure, but not unheard of. Throughout the worlds there are a variety of individuals and organizations dedicated to studying Monsterology in one form or another. Featured here are three of the most well known, each using very different methods - choose the one which best suits you. > ##### Multiclassing > **_Ability Score Minimum:_** You must have a 13 in Intelligence and Constitution if you wish to take a level in the Mimic as another class or to take a level in another class if you are a Mimic. > **_Proficiencies:_** If you're multiclassing into mimic as another class you gain proficiency in Light armor, Scimitars and one skill proficiency from the class list. \pagebreakNum

### Ring Master The troupe of the Masked Carnival are quite unlike other Mimics. Rather than spend all day in a stuffy study or a sweaty dojo, they'd prefer to be on the road with their beast by their side putting on a show! These Mimics have discovered how to manifest their beast outside their physical form, and together they entertain, perform, and dazzle the world by working together as a team. #### Showman's Proficiencies When you choose this discipline at 1st level, you gain proficiency with the Animal Handling skill or expertise if you are already proficient, as well as whips. #### Bestial Avatar Also at 1st level, your unique relationship with the inner beast allows you to conjure an avatar of it.

It rolls initiative like any other creature, but you determine its actions, decisions, and attitude (no action required by you). When you and your avatar roll initiative, your avatar can change initiative to match your own. If you are absent or incapacitated, your avatar acts on its own. Your avatar has statistics determined in part by your level. All avatars begin using the stats for the Avatar of the Beast detailed below, though you decide its appearance and what melee attack it uses (eg. a bite, claws, or a tail etc.). The avatar uses your proficiency bonus rather than its own. It has a natural armor class of 10 + its Constitution modifier
+ your proficiency bonus. It is also proficient
in all the saving throws you're proficient in.
Your avatar cannot wear barding or attune
to, or activate, magic items. For each
level after 1st, your avatar companion
gains an additional Hit Die and increases
its hit points accordingly. The avatar's
hit dice are d10's. Its level is equal to
your Mimic level for the purposes of
calculating spells like polymorph and
true polymorph. When you gain the Ability Score Improvement

#### Learning Style Finally at 1st level, you discover how to acquire new mimicry from the creatures of the world. The ringmaster learns by teaching their beast to master the tricks they've seen their foes use. You gain the following features: ___ **_Mimicry Modifier:_** Charisma ___ **_Bestial Training._** As part of a long rest you can spend an hour training your beast, trying to teach it a new mimicry. Select a creature you have encountered and make three Wisdom(Animal Handling) checks against your own mimicry save DC. Track the number of successes you roll. It takes three successes for the beast to fully understand the lesson, allowing you to add a new mimicry to your research journal for the species you based the lesson on. If you don't achieve enough successes you can continue training as part of the next long rest, giving the beast time to rest and clear its mind. If you suffer two consecutive failures, you subtract one success from its progress, to a minimum of 0 successors. If you start training the beast lessons based on a different creature, it loses all progress made for any other. ___ **_Bestial Memory._** As part of your morning meditation, your avatar can memorize a single mimicry from your research journal that does not have any prerequisites. The avatar uses your mimicry attack bonus and mimicry save DC as required. You can't both have the same mimicry memorized. #### Life in the Spotlight At 6th level, your life of experience with showmanship grants you unique benefits: - You have advantage on Charisma (Performance) checks to gather a crowds attention - Your deeper understanding of monsters allows you to use the Wisdom (Animal Handling) skill with non-beast creatures to intuit their intentions. \columnbreak - You can use your bonus action to rally your bestial avatar giving it advantage on its next attack roll, saving throw or ability check before the start of your next turn. You can do this a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus and regain all uses after completing a long rest.

If you incorporate 1lb of meat from the creature your lesson is based on, you have advantage on each of the animal handling checks made for that creature's lesson. #### Fast Learner From 10th level, your beast manifests more mimicries you have learned. As part of your morning meditation, your avatar can memorize a number of bestial mimicry it meets the prerequisites for from your research journal equal to half your proficiency bonus rounded down. You can't both have the same mimicry memorized. _Bestial Memory_ does not count against these memorized mimicries. #### Tandem Strike Starting at 14th level you've developed a synergy with your beast. Whenever you take an action that deals damage or applies a condition to a target you can choose one of the targets affected. Your beast can immediately move up to its speed and make an attack against the target at no action cost. #### Unrivaled Performance At 20th level, your beast has grown to full strength, and can effortlessly wield the mimicry you share. Your beast can memorize one legendary mimicry it meets the prerequisites for from your research journal. You can't both have the same legendary mimicry memorized. \pagebreakNum

Anything created by the demiplane dissipates into smoke if it is removed. - While within your own demiplane, you gain the following benefits: If you complete a long rest, you regain all of your hit dice and gain the benefits as if you were the target of the spell Greater Restoration. - When you exit the Demiplane you can choose an unoccupied space within 60 feet of the space you entered the Demiplane from and appear there. \columnbreak #### Limit Break Upon reaching 20th level, your mastery of stealing and mimicking is unparalleled allowing you drain a creature's divine spark. As an action, choose one creature you can see and force it to make Charisma saving throw against your mimicry DC. On a failed save, you steal 4 points from one of the creature's ability scores, the target's ability score is reduced by 4, and your total in that ability score is increased by the same amount to a maximum of 24. All benefits are lost when this feature is used again. Once you successfully use this ability, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest. \pagebreakNum
##### Monsterology ___ Across the world there are monsters to be discovered, each with inner beasts that have evolved in a multitude of ways. The mimic is able to tap into these creature's inner beasts and learn to replicate their unique abilities for their own use through the art of Monsterology - a study of monsters. #### Bestial Mimicry These abilities defy typical magic and can only be manifested through the inner beast, dubbed bestial mimicry. These are the most basic form of mimicries and can be learned from any creature who's species you can enter into your research journal. #### Legendary Mimicry The most powerful kinds of mimicry are legendary mimicries, however they can only be learned from deadly and rare legendary creatures. These mimicries are prized, showing the heights of your ability as a mimic, so are often seen as bragging rights amongst research circles. #### Mimicry The following pages feature the mimic schools of Monsterology tied to bestial mimicry and legendary mimicry. When you learn a new bestial mimicry you can select a mimicry that you qualify for from the school associated with the creature's type. Unless otherwise stated, you can only learn each mimicry once. Effects of the same mimicry used multiple times don't combine, and only the most potent effect (eg. highest bonus) applies while durations overlap. > ##### Descriptive Variety > Monsterology provides a lot of descriptive room for players to experiment with when casting spells and using mimicry. You don't have to use the descriptive text provided after all, as long as the effect remains the same! Perhaps you manifest your powers by momentarily transforming your body into the creature you learned it from, or you summon a part, or all of the monster to perform the ability on your behalf? Maybe your powers manifest with the common visual flare of other spellcasters, or perhaps each memorized mimicry alters your body just a little as you gradually become more monstrous over the course of your adventure! The possibilities are endless, so let your imagination go wild! \columnbreak > ##### Prerequisites & Exclusivity > If a mimicry has prerequisites, you must meet them to learn it and you must have the prerequisite mimicry memorized to memorize the dependent mimicry. You can learn the mimicry at the same time that you meet the prerequisites. A level prerequisite refers to your level in this class. If a mimicry has an exclusivity then you cannot memorize more than one mimicry with the same exclusivity tag at the same time. \pagebreakNum
