The only natural predator of Goliaths, the Mimc is the true largest race in the Great Wheel. Contrary to what Council propaganda would have you believe, Mimcs are not inanimate, they are not man-made, and they are not good. Not even the Syrne could bear to call them by their true name, instead referring to them only in vague terms as The Great Devourer. They have infiltrated Elven gardens, Human cities, and even the very mansions of Sigil's elite.

A rare few Mimics, however, use their powers for good. While they may not be as good at travelling around the Wheel as any other races, they're insidious, and have an unquenchable taste for the blood of the innocent.

Changed name to Mimic, Size to Level*4, and made it so they can only jump.

So 'leaping' refers to jumping rules, right?

I'd leave height and weight out, like Humans.

You're missing a period in the racial power.

Size should probably be Level*3, making your max 15. 16 if you got the +1 Size for Characteristic bonus.

Done. We'll need new Heroes.

I'd ignore reference to holding weapons and armor altogether. Just give them scaling natural armor. Mimics are also known to eat people that get too close, so natural weapons are necessary as well.

You might want to replace Stealth with Disguise.
