Mimic

Mimic

Displays the symbol of one terrain while behaving like another, creating a hidden terrain effect. When a player with the DETECT_HIDDEN flag is adjacent, the cell briefly reveals the actual terrain's symbol.

Typical use: disguise a dangerous or traversable cell as something else — subclasses SecretPassage and PitTrap are the canonical examples.
