Now I want Konsi christmas cookies!

[–] ahdok@ttrpg.network 8 points 1 month ago (2 children)

A long time ago I did spend a few months experimenting with ratios to make my own cookie recipe, it makes really good chocolate chip cookies. Not very christmassy though.

sprinkle something green and red and it becomes crissmass-y

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 3 points 1 month ago

OP delivers!

Definitely did not expect Konsi doing a Street Fighter 6 Cammy cosplay.

[–] ahdok@ttrpg.network 4 points 3 weeks ago

This one caused me so much trouble! I went into it thinking "this will be easy" but it's surprisingly hard to get right.

I don't think I 100% got it, her body proportions are too human (Konsi is 4ft tall) - but it was a lot of fun to try. Daily drawing challenges aren't about being perfect, they're about just getting the thing done and learning from it.

Play Shattered Pixel Dungeon. You can get special mimics that can disguise as literally everything. A door, strength potion, the way to the next level, basically anything that looks useful. And of course they only appear as soon as you've forgotten to check for them.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's why you need post it on your stuff.

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

All fun and games until the mimic pretends to be a post-it note

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I like to think mimics cant replicate text. If not I'm gonna need a fancy mimic lens or start tapping my stuff with a wrench before I touch it.

[–] Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

They can replicate text, but it's not very good, like AI pictures. This has led to many of them having a text phobia, so make sure to carve your name into everything.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 3 points 3 weeks ago

Safety fact!

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 23 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Teleportation mimic will teleport you. To its stomach.

Breastplate mimic just wants to sink its mouth on your breasts.

Saddle mimic wants to lick your lowers parts.

No comment on outhouse mimic. We don't talk about it.

[–] MouseKeyboard@ttrpg.network 3 points 3 weeks ago

The rope mimic has some more specific tastes.

I've always been a fan of mimics being ladders or bridges.

[–] flicker@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 1 month ago

Not my menstrual cup!

[–] sirblastalot@ttrpg.network 14 points 1 month ago

Cover your phb in spray adhesive and leave it sitting on the table. As soon as someone touches it, shout "ROLL INITIATIVE!"

Actually, apply this to other random objects at the game table. A bag of chips, 1 can of soda in the fridge, every 3rd pencil, whatever.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This is similar to the premise of Prey.

[–] Atlusb@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

[This post is not a mimic]

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

That seems like something a mimic would say.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And then we have Starfinder where a mimic can disguise itself as an entire planet!

[–] Soup@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The player handbook isn’t a problem, no one reads that thing.

I've often thought it'd be fun to let a party have a tame mimic as a pet. Not helpful in battle unfortunately, unless one of your opponents decides to take a looting break.

[–] IndeterminateName@beehaw.org 6 points 1 month ago

My party do have a pet mimic. He's called Philip and is mostly there for comic relief although he has been known to help with puzzles and things occasionally

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 3 points 1 month ago

Thrown weapon mimic, like a javelin. Enemy picks it up to throw back and bam, surprise bite!!!

[–] Klordok@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

The Flee, Mortals! book has a mimic companion stat block. It can cover you and act as active camouflage.

I wanna share this in the group chat, but I don't wanna give the GM any ideas xD

[–] SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

One D&D podcast I listen to had one be a house in Sigil. After they had dealt with the plot to use it for magic or something some of the party ended up feeding it animals much to the chagrin of the rest of the party but did save some other creatures living in the area from getting eaten.

My sister and I were diving deep into the lore and rules for mimics and the most terrifying thing they could be, is either an entire planet or a humanoid. They might even be able to be a planet-sized humanoid. Or even a human-sized planetoid 😱

It's always more fun when mimics team up. A couple of goblins bother the party at night, just enough to give them chase, then when they return, hop into their sleeping bag and boom, mimic.

[–] Atlusb@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What about the party being mimics but don't tell them that.

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Tell every party member that they are a mimic and need to keep it a secret from the rest of the party.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

outhouse oof.

[–] StinkyRedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Can't remember if it was ds2 or ds3 but one of em had bonfire mimics concept arts.

The rug under the chest is my favourite. I'm gonna give my players more trust issues, thank you

Spyglass: thoomp

The PHB mimic is starving
