Mimickin (Shifter)

The art of transformation is a mystery to some, but few can grasp the level of control of their bodies that a mimickin possesses. Able to take nearly any inanimate form, mimickin are masters of disguise.

Class Skills

A mimickin gains Disguise as a class skill.

Mimic Aspect (Ex)

At 1st level, a mimickin gains darkvision 60 feet and a +1 bonus to Disguise checks. For every four levels the mimickin possesses, her bonus to Disguise checks increases by +1.
At 5th level, as a swift action while in mimic shape, a mimickin can secrete a powerful adhesive. Any weapon that strikes an adhesive-coated mimickin is stuck fast unless the wielder succeeds on a Reflex save (DC = 10+ 1/2 the mimickin’s level + her Wisdom modifier). A successful Strength check (DC 10 + the mimickin’s level) is needed to pry off a stuck weapon. Strong alcohol or universal solvent dissolves the adhesive. A mimic can dissolve its adhesive at will, and the substance breaks down 5 rounds after the mimickin dies.
At 9th level, a mimickin can change her form while in mimic shape at will as a move action, changing to a different kind of object.
At 13th level, as a full-round action while in mimic shape, a mimickin can make a single bite attack that deals double base damage and functions as if she had the grab and swallow whole special attacks, allowing her to grab and swallow a creature of her size or smaller. Her stomach doesn’t deal damage to swallowed creatures, but a living creature she swallows must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC = 10 + 1/2 her mimickin level + Wisdom modifier) at the beginning of each of its turns or become nauseated for 1 round.
While she has a creature swallowed, a mimickin is treated as if she were carrying a heavy load if the creature is the same size and a medium load if it’s one size smaller; regardless, she can swallow only one such creature at a time. She can regurgitate a swallowed creature of her choice as a move action, leaving it prone in an adjacent open square. If she is struck with a confirmed critical hit while she has a creature swallowed, the swallowed creatures each take half as much damage as the mimickin does (this doesn’t reduce the damage the mimickin takes). If a mimickin leaves mimic form, she must regurgitate any creature she has swallowed with this ability.
At 17th level, a mimickin gains blindsight 30 feet.
This ability replaces shifter aspect, chimeric aspect, and greater chimeric aspect.

Mimic Shape (Su)

At 1st level, a mimickin can assume the general shape of any Small or Medium object, such as a massive chest, a stout bed, or a door. A mimickin’s body is hard and has a rough texture, no matter what appearance it might present. A mimickin gains a +20 racial bonus on Disguise checks when imitating an object in this manner. Multiple mimickin can join together to form larger objects, although they each occupy their own space. While taking the shape of an object, a mimickin’s speed is reduced to 5 feet. As a swift action while disguised as an object, a mimickin can manifest or hide a pair of clawed hands and a mouth; doing so causes her to lose her racial bonus on Disguise checks, although her speed is no longer reduced by her form. Mimic shape is treated as wild shape for the purpose of feats which would affect it.
The effect lasts for a number of hours equal to 1/2 her mimickin class level + her Wisdom modifier (minimum 1), and she may split the duration of this ability however she wants. Each use of this ability uses up at least an hour of its duration, regardless of how long she stays in it. These bonuses replace the normal bonuses for increasing her size, and this is a polymorph effect.
In addition, a mimickin can change her form while in mimic shape as a standard action a number of times per day equal to 1/2 her character level + her Wisdom modifier (minimum 1 doing so does not consume any duration of her mimic shape ability.
While taking the form of a Small object, a mimickin gains a +2 size bonus to her Dexterity and a +1 bonus to her natural armor. While taking the form of a Medium object, a mimickin gains a +2 size bonus to her Strength and a +2 bonus to her natural armor.
At 8th level, a mimickin can take the form of a Large or Tiny object. While taking the form of a Tiny object, a mimickin gains a +4 size bonus to her Dexterity and a +2 bonus to her natural armor. While taking the form of a Large object, a mimickin gains a +4 size bonus to her Strength and a +3 bonus to her natural armor.
At 14th level, a mimickin can take the form of a Diminutive or Gargantuan object. While taking the form of a Diminutive object, a mimickin gains a +8 size bonus to her Dexterity and a +4 bonus to her natural armor. While taking the form of a Gargantuan object, a mimickin gains a +8 size bonus to her Strength and a +5 bonus to her natural armor.
This ability replaces shifter shape.

Silent Stalk (Ex)

At 5th level, while a mimickin is in mimic shape without manifesting her claws or bite, whenever she moves 5 feet or less while being observed, she can make a Stealth check opposed by all observer’s Perception checks. If her Stealth check is higher, those observing her do not notice that she has moved.
This ability replaces trackless step.

Polymaster (Ex)

At 20th level, a mimickin can use her mimic shape at will and can transform into Colossal objects, gaining a +12 size bonus to Strength and a +7 bonus to her natural armor bonus.
This ability replaces master of many forms.
