Known behavior and practical response

It can copy familiar player voices and use them to draw crewmates closer.

Mimic cauldron attack motion, dropping and headwear placement were corrected; attaching a cauldron no longer teleports it.

  • Verify who you are approaching and test suspicious behavior from a safe position; the exact disguise rules are not published.

A copied teammate is a different clue

Mimic is described at launch as copying familiar voices. The June attack-reaction note is Demo history, not a newly tested September rule. The unnamed September treasure-disguised threat is not confirmed to be Mimic.

Location and level evidence

Enemy sets and bosses are level-specific after September 10. The announcements do not publish a complete location/level assignment; an unknown location is not a confirmed absence.

  • Exact level, boss role, damage and range remain unverified.

Dated changes

Review the date as well as the behavior: a historical adjustment is not a new September mechanic.
