Instead of kiling it, they convinced the mimic to come with them. They promised it food so long as it didn't eat anyone and it agreed. At first, they kept it in their room in the inn, but the inn's owner got a bit apoplectic when one of the maids walked in while it was chowing down on dinner. Fortunately, they had a good relationship with the guy in Tressendar Manor, so they got him to keep it after the incident with the maid. There was discussion of turning it into a sidekick, but that base 10' speed just didn't work. Still, they helped the locals, and for the relatively low cost of frequent slabs of beef they ended up with a really good guard for their stuff whenever they were away.</blockquote>
