Can anyone spare a Mimic?
A thought has occurred to me, in the lead-up to the Wise Snake fight. Specifically, that Fred's most useful abilities will probably be his magical ones, since he's got a low-level sword and the enemy's basically made of rock.
Unfortunately, his preincarnation was not a primary caster, so he's got a pretty small mana pool to draw on. The solution, of course, is to refill that mana pool, but the options for doing that are limited. His canon - or at least his part of it - only has one inventoryable MP-refiller.
So here's where things get tricky. I doubt there are going to be any yet-unannounced opportunities for plot Echoes in the next week, which means I'd need a recurrence. Since the item in question is not plot-relevant in canon, it seems to me that the best way to recur it would be an encounter with one of the monsters that drop it.
So. Do we have anyone that can and would manifest, preferably in-world as opposed to just an image/video, any of the following: mimic (animated treasure chest), gryphon, mummy, skeletal sorcerer, or animated suit of armor?

no subject
And he wouldn't be showing off. He's very cagy and tries to keep his stuff more or less hidden (paranoid / thief's instincts kinda.) He might go pranking with it or if there's any call for a distraction he can whip it out for illusion sake or if someone just wants to see something maybe?
