Personality and traits

According to Whisper, Mimic is a cold hearted and manipulative man who is even willing to kill to achieve his goals. He too seems to have a big grudge against Whisper, who survived his plan on taking down the Diamond Cutters by making an alliance with Eggman.

He has the power to mimic other people or objects with his shapeshifting abilities. Even the cloak he wears is created with his powers. Ian Flynn stated that he imagines Mimic takes on properties similar to what he's mimicking. If Mimic turns into an Egg Pawn like he did in Sonic the Hedgehog: Bad Guys 2, touching it should feel rigid and sturdy like steel, but he couldn't shrug off damage like real armor could. And he shouldn't be able to create weapons like guns.[3]

History

First seen in the Tangle & Whisper miniseries, Mimic used to be part of a team called the Diamond Cutters along Whisper but he once betrayed the team by temporarly joining forces with Dr. Eggman in order to elliminate the Diamond Cutters. Whisper was the only survivor. In the Tangle & Whisper miniseries, he fought against Tangle and Whisper and was captured by the two protagonists and sent to prison in a test chamber built by Tails. Later, he joined forces with Dr. Starline, Zavok, Rough and Tumble in the Bad Guys miniseries. After that, he seems to be searching for Whisper.
