Wardrobe Mimic




Created through arcane manipulation by the Planar Guild, wardrobe mimics are clever ways to keep one's portals hidden and fashion cataloged. Each wardrobe mimic serves as a teleportation circle as well as a planar gate. This infusion of raw magical might has elevated the mimic's mental abilities. Most of them have come to dote on the Planar Guild members who keep them and often aid in everyday dressing decisions. They also have become secretive creatures. Often they hide a wizard's valuables on top of doors to other worlds. These doors allow a unique defense as well where the monstrosity can manipulate the position of its foes.

Shapechanger.

The mimic can use its action to polymorph into a wardrobe or back into its true, amorphous form. Its statistics are the same in each form. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying isn't transformed. It reverts to its true form if it dies.

Adhesive (Object Form Only).

The mimic adheres to anything that touches it. A Huge or smaller creature adhered to the mimic is also grappled by it (escape DC 14). Ability checks made to escape this grapple have disadvantage.

False Appearance (Object Form Only).

While the mimic remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from an ordinary wardrobe.

Grappler.

The mimic has advantage on attack rolls against any creature grappled by it.

Otherworldly Door (Object Form Only).

The wardrobe mimic serves as a teleportation circle. Its sigil begins linked to one location of its creator's desire. Every time it devours a spellcaster that knows additional circle sigils, it gains the ability to link to that location as well. In addition, the mimic also serves as a door way to plane shift to one other dimension at its creation.

Actions

Multiattack.

The mimic makes two pseudopod attacks.

Pseudopod.

Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) bludgeoning damage. If the mimic is in object form, the target is subjected to its Adhesive trait.

Bite.

Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) piercing damage plus 4 (1d8) acid damage.

Vortex (Recharge 5-6).

The mimic opens its maw, or door, and creates a magic vortex. The mimic may either attempt to suck all targets within a 15-foot cone closer, or shove those targets in the same cone effect. Either way, all creatures in the area of effect must succeed on a DC 15 Strength save. If the mimic is sucking creatures in, they are moved 10ft closer to the mimic. If it is shoving creatures, they are moved 10ft away. Creatures grappled by the mimic are not affected.

Reactions

Snack.

If a creature is moved within 5ft of the mimic via the Vortex action, the mimic may make a Bite attack against it with advantage.

Netting Mimic

This particular mimic species has a rather unique origin. As polyps the first batch was caught in a giant spider's web soon after being spawned. Rather than being devoured by the arachnid, they turned into sticky strands amid the webwork. Not long after that, a group of adventurers slew said spider and moved on. The mimics had something to subsist on and kept their disguise to keep more bugs. When the spider's eggs hatched, instead of eating the young, the mimics were amused by the creatures and they protected them until they were large enough until to ride off to better climes. Eventually, these mimics took the shape of netting of all sorts: ship rigging, cargo nets, and so on as they were less conspicuous than spider webs. They still remain friends with things eight-legged. Netting Mimic Medium Monstrosity (shapechanger), neutral Armor Class 13 (natural armor) 52 (8d8 + 16) Speed 15 ft Climb ...

Gears

Gears can't remember if he was a dwarven hero or a condemned criminal. Either way, he is more cogwork than flesh now and driven to mete out justice with his metal fists. He was first deployed during an intense goblin invasion of a dwarven stronghold. Initially he served as something between a shocktroop and a living weapon, but this cigar chopping 'cyborg' inspired the dwarven defenders fighting along side of him to the point that he became a mascot, then a leader. More times than one could count, he should have gone down under a barrage of attacks only to plow forward losing more flesh and blood later replaced with mithril and steel. Eventually, Gears lost every last dwarf he fought along side and just kept killing goblins whenever he could until the fortress housed him alone. Now he wanders the world, making things right the best he can one punch at a time. Gears Medium construct (dwarf), chaotic good Armor Class 12 (natural armor) ...

Piecemeal

Eveyrone should be free to live as they want and die as terribly as they can. This is the creed that the strange collection of bodyparts known as Piecemeal holds. Originally, it was a trio of kobolds who attempted a 'ritual' of their own design meant to grant immortality. Instead, it tore the three creatures into pieces that forgot how to die. The mass went quite mad and seeks to free other body parts from the 'bondage' of well, being part of a body. Travelling as three kobolds in a trenchcoat, Piecemeal wages a brutal war against 'slave owners' (IE anything with a body) and adds new parts to its collectiona as needed to keep the revolution going. Over time little of the kobolds remain, but it still rambles about in a trenchcoat spouting its made philosophy.
