Actions

Hollowing Glimpse. Ranged Spell Attack: +6 to hit, reach 30 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d4 + 4) necrotic damage. The copycat regains 1d4 hit points.

Macabre Mimicry (3/Day). The copycat targets one Tiny creature it can see within 30 feet of it. The target must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or be magically absorbed by the copycat. When absorbed, the target dissolves into dark dust and is being digested by the copycat. If the copycat dies while digesting a creature, the absorbed creature reappears in the copycat‘s space, drops to 1 hit point and is unconscious. Otherwise the absorbed creature ceases to exist after 8 hours.
While digesting a creature, the copycat gains all resistances, immunities and special traits of that creature. In addition, the copycat can use that creature‘s actions and reactions. If special appendages or body modifications are required for any of the features, they appear on the copycat as spectral manifestations representative of the absorbed creature.

Description

Creeping and stalking through the darkness, this nocturnal predator has the most remarkable method of ingestion. Instead of depending on actual food, it feeds on the very essence of other beings, mysteriously absorbing them. On top of that, the copycat is capable of adopting any skill, trait or other quality of similar-sized creatures unfortunate enough to land in its magical belly. This remarkable feature receives much attention from practitioners of the dark arts. Legend has it that some sinister tinkerer even invented a twisted item strong enough to bind the copycat and harvest its powers…
