  1. Steller’s Jays (Cyanocitta stelleri) are excellent mimics, capable of imitating other birds, squirrels, cats, dogs, chickens—even mechanical sounds.

  4. On the subject of #Mimics in #Pathfinder1e

    Here is a snippet from the bestiary regarding their ability to mimic objects.

    Mimic Object (Ex)

    A mimic can assume the general shape of any Medium object, such as a massive chest, a stout bed, or a door. The creature cannot substantially alter its size, though. A mimic’s body is hard and has a rough texture, no matter what appearance it might present. A mimic gains a +20 Racial Bonus on Disguise checks when imitating an object in this manner. Disguise is always a class skill for a mimic.

    Environment any
    Organization solitary

    ------

    Heck it even suggests a Door there! And here I thought it was being a little bit original...

    With this said, any GM/DMs out there, let's come up with some fun and effective Mimics with these limitations in mind.

    My personal favourite is a privie, an old style toilet, but a Mimic, literally catching adventurers with their pants down.

  5. Just need to share this snippet of a convo between me and my little brother that happened just now.

    The pun was not premeditated, honestly.

  7. Hornet mimic hoverfly, Volucella zonaria inaturalist.org/observations/1 which not only resembles (somewhat) a hornet, but also lays its eggs in a hornet nest and its larvae grow up as commensals therein en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volucell Badass!
