Series lore and name
Essentially, Mimics are advanced forms of Canniboxes. Where the lesser form typically uses desperate attacks, the Mimic will cast sudden-death spells in an effort to outright kill a party member, though it normally only has enough MP to perform the spell once. Usually lying in wait under the guise of a normal treasure chest, some installments of the series have had Mimics as random encounter monsters, with the exception of Dragon Quest VIIIs 3DS remake and Dragon Quest Xs Pyramid.

Using Mimic
Mimic sits in the Material family.
In DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: The Withered World you do not fight beside your monsters — you build the party and command it. Up to four monsters are active with four more in reserve, and synthesis is the main way to raise a keeper: combine two monsters from level 10 and the child inherits the parents' talents, with a Plus Value that can lift it past their rank.
