Bestiary | Monsters | Mimic | Special Abilities | Adhesive
A
mimic exudes a thick
slime that acts as a powerful
adhesive, holding fast any creatures or items that touch it. An
adhesive-covered
mimic automatically grapples any creature it hits with its slam attack. Opponents so
grappled cannot get free while the
mimic is alive without removing the
adhesive first. A weapon that strikes an
adhesive-coated
mimic is stuck fast unless the wielder succeeds on a DC 17 Reflex save. A successful DC 17 Strength check is needed to pry off a stuck weapon. Strong alcohol or
universal solvent dissolves the
adhesive, but the
mimic can still grapple normally. A
mimic can dissolve its
adhesive at will, and the substance breaks down 5 rounds after the creature dies. The save DC is Strength-based.
