Quick to assess the situation and what Zeric plans to do, Elyas joins him in the offensive against the mimic, casting magic missle. The single bolt that he conjures hits the creature in a quick burst of force. (4 damage)
Zeric swings his morning star at Starbrow's cage, trying to knock the cage off the mimic. The cage however does not sail off the chest-shaped creature as he'd planned, but rather clatters to the floor behind the chest attached to what appears to be some sticky substance covering the mimic. Orpheus begins playing, bolstering his companions with his rhythms.
Not wanting to risk grabbing at the cage so close to the mimic with her unprotected hand Raven opts to smash the creature from behind, (Sneak Attack - 15 damage) Alinis joins the fight, swinging her sword, slicing into the mimic with her attack. (7 damage) To her surprise though, her sword does not come back easily, becoming stuck on the mimic's sticky coating, she begins tugging, trying to dislodge her weapon.
Seeing an oppurtunity, the mimic lashes out at Alinis, a pseudopod emerging from it's shape, delivering a crushing blow to her. (12 damage) The female ranger's grip coming loose of her weapon, which remains stuck to the creature, she falls back and hits the ground hard.
