Who knew that wraiths are rigid creatures, being in same class as DM’s, crabs, crystal guardians. As such, they would take extra extra damage from a Duelist’s pickaxe.
On the same time, Mimics are not rigid (they’re demonic). They’re one of the very few demonic creatures that can appear in sewers.
This is derived information:
A Duelist “deals X-Y damage to enemies with rigid skin”, using the pickaxe.
There is no “rigid” property in the game, and the check for rigid skin is if the foe are either inorganic, or among a small set of anthopods. ( Source ).
A Wraith has properties of being both Undead and Inorganic, and thus would practically be considered having “rigid skin” when attacked by a Duelist’s Pickaxe ability. Conclusion: Wraiths have rigid skin.
A Mimic is instead considered Demonic, so even if it might appear rigid, it’s not.
Mimics are an interesting case for me. In D&D mimics don’t just disguise themselves as treasure chests. They can turn into any object they want, like the T-1000 from Terminator 2. This is how they behave in NetHack. They could disguise as one of the items for sale in a shop! They also have the property of being very sticky. This causes you to get stuck to them and trapped when you bump into them.
Anyway, not quite how mimics work in SPD but still interesting that in their legacy comes a reason for being not rigid.
That’s interesting, I always thought they were like octopus, they just squished themselves into shape and changed their color.
I suppose it make some sense they have some corporeal features though, how else could you attack one with regular weapons, or equip your sad ghost with a weapon and armor?
Mimics are demonic? How the And how are wraiths rigid lol
because they are inorganic ???
