Description	A deceptive enemy that strikes when one's guard is down
Mimics are devious creatures that have evolved to look like mundane, human objects, the most common of which is a chest. It is rumored that the mimic's imitation is not perfect -- that there is a small flaw. If one were to discover it, they would be able to avoid engaging these monsters.

The Mimic is an enemy in UnderMine. It masquerades as a standard Chest until it is attacked or interacted with. It attacks the player by leaping at them. It can be distinguished from a normal Chest from its redder sparkles or observing it shuddering when a Potion of True Sight is consumed.

It is not damaged by Relics such as the Large Ember or the Lightning Bomb's electricity until it is revealed. It will reveal itself if it is standing in burning oil or electrified water.

When killed it drops the same contents as the chest it was mimicking.

Mimic spawn rate increases significantly if the player is afflicted with Metamfiezomaiophobia. If the player is cursed with Empty Coffers, all closed chests are Mimics. They will still drop their normal chest loot.

It does not drop food if the player has Leftovers or bombs if the player has Spare Ordnance.
