Mimic the Octopus

Mimic has always sought presitge and riches. Mimic—in keeping with his shapeshifting abilities—is an ominous, sinister, manipulative, remorseless, cunning and violent sociopath with scant regard for anyone other than himself. He does not believe in higher ideals, claiming that heroes become martyrs while professionals stay alive. He also is highly untruthful and treacherous, delighting in deceiving others and betraying whoever he is currently aligned with if it suits his purposes. However, he also has a cowardly streak; he does not like causing much of a scene, relying on tactics to undermine and trick others into doing what he wishes, and fears those who are stronger than him. Mimic detests working with teams. Incredibly selfish, he believes friendships are a weakness. He similarly considers his "companions" as only a means to an end and will sell them out as soon as his life is threatened. He also tends to emotionally blackmail others by pretending to be an innocent victim of violence. Despite his ruthless personality, it is hinted that he is a somewhat lackluster fighter, preferring to do things in a cloak and dagger fashion. Mimic was once an actor who wanted to be noticed among his peers, despite only ever being able to book minor roles. His desire to be seen was so much so that he began shapeshifting into his competition, much to their surprise and annoyance. When he was being escorted out of the studio, an army of badniks attacked causing chaos and the death of everyone inside the studio. (execpt for mimic) Later, he gets noticed by Whisper the Wolf, and gets introduced to the Diamons Cutters, a team that destroys Dr. Eggman's bases and "saves the day." He decides to join the Diamond cutters and becomes the infiltrator of the team.
