Beware brave thieves for many have fallen for the deceptive mimic. Clever in its ways it disguises itself as either common objects or grand riches. The only tool to guard yourself against them is to always smash random object whenever you enter a room. May cost many a coin and cause many property owners to hate you but is worth still having all you limbs and bodily fluids.
Mammon’s faults are numerous. His use of the Art is not among them. Extemporaneously ironic sorceries are gauche displays of power. Preemptively ironic sorcery- that, that is style.
Reminds me of an old joke…
“My friends and I walked into an inn with swords and armor. The barkeep asks, ‘Whaddya need those fer?’ and I reply, ‘To kill mimics.’
He laughs.
I laugh.
My friends laugh.
The chairs laugh.
We kill the chairs. It is a good day.”
Bane of the greedy, that. I’ve seen many an adventurer fooled. The only solution is to, obviously, kill everything. If it’s already dead kill it again. And if it doesn’t have life, especially kill it. Kill it extra dead just to be sure.
making routes is hard.
And it might not be the one used in old Yab’s last incursion, the outer reaches are less secure than the real vault. probably get picked at all the time.
MIMICS.
Feh, so the wretched Beast uses these sorts, does it.
Somehow, my already low esteem for the penurious lord falls even lower.
Ah yes, Mimics!

KILL IT! KILL IT WITH FIRE!
Mimics, the only natural predator of a Fool. As such I feel no shame in burning down any room that has identical furniture.
..aren’t Suuz’s eyes meant to be red, not yellow?
I didn’t notice at first, but yeah, I think you’re right.
Nay more, she(Suuz is the girls’s name, right?) also has more scars on her mask, wasn’t she?

Knives must start skinning.
Gold teeth are your winnings.
“Mimics! Why. Is. It. ALWAYS. G**DAMNED. MIMICS?”

Ah, the Mimic room. Such a classic.
God damn mimmics, it really is a d&d quest
Pay attention class! We are about to witness an age-old Rogue technique: activating traps with your face!
MIMICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mimics are an old staple, but it’s not every day you get to see their spawn 🙂
I can’t figure: when this is over, there will be three left, right? Or four? Certainly no more than four…
Among the Guild of Dungeon Raiders there are certain stories about inanimate household objects that turn against strangers. “Mimics”, they call them.
When he says they’ve already cleared that room out, does that mean it was part of the route they used last time? That doesn’t seem like a good plan.

I suspect he is is referring to his dead helpers.
Mimics, one of the greatest traps for greedy dungeon raiders
EVEN MY WORDS ARE MIMICS
