A Well Mimic in Dungeons & Dragons is a variant of the classic mimic creature that has adapted to a more specific form. Instead of resembling a chest or a common object, the Well Mimic takes on the appearance of a well, often a stone or wooden structure found in a village, forest, or dungeon. This clever disguise is used to lure adventurers or unsuspecting passersby into a trap. The mimic’s body remains hidden, usually blending seamlessly with the well’s structure, while its mouth can open to swallow prey whole when they approach too closely.

Like all mimics, the Well Mimic has the ability to shape-shift into a variety of forms, and its natural adhesive properties allow it to stick to victims, holding them in place while it devours them. The creature’s true form is a monstrous, grotesque amalgamation of flesh, teeth, and slime, resembling an enormous, terrifying tongue or maw. The Well Mimic’s deceptive appearance is its primary defense, making it difficult for adventurers to detect before it’s too late.

Well Mimics are often placed in locations where adventurers are likely to search for water or rest, making them especially dangerous in dungeons or wilderness areas where safe resting spots are scarce. They are cunning predators, using their surroundings to their advantage by hiding in plain sight. Combat with a Well Mimic can be dangerous, as the creature is capable of grappling and swallowing adventurers, leading to perilous situations if they are not rescued or able to escape quickly.

This variant adds an eerie, unsettling element to encounters, combining the threat of a classic mimic with the environmental dangers of exploration.
