About this project

What does TheMimic add?

✨ Key Features:

  • Identity Theft: The entity tracks down the nearest player, copying their exact name, skin/appearance, and equipped gear to confuse you and your friends.

  • Creepy AI & Stalking: Instead of blindly rushing you, it keeps a terrifying distance, tracking your movements from the shadows. If you run at it, it actively backs away to maintain its creepy space—unless provoked.

  • Distress Calls: When attacked, it panics and broadcasts fake distress messages in the public chat using your name to trick other players into thinking you are in trouble!

  • Natural Spawns: Can be found roaming dark forests, deep taigas, deserts, mangrove swamps, or lurking in the absolute darkness of caves below Y=0. Or you can summon it by doing /summon horrormod:mimic

Can you survive your own reflection, or will you fall victim to the Mimicer?

Requirements:

  • Minecraft 1.20.1

  • Minecraft Forge
