Currently, when as a Mimic you use the spell "Perfect Mimicry" you copy a person's spells/stats to a certain degree. The person you are trying to mimic also rolls an injury roll with a chance of it hitting a perm.
Perms can destroy characters. Especially ones that people don't really deserve? Why should they be punished for someone else taking their form. Most of the time when you mimic someone it's decided through combat (Probably dangerous already), or consensual. This prevents fun plots where 2 people on the same side are just mimicking each other. Because why would I let someone mimic me regularly if every time that happens I can get injured?
It's silly.
You could perhaps change it to a temp. 1-3 = -10 vit for 24 hours. Unable to be healed. 4-6 = you're fine.
This still gives a punishment if you roll low but it isn't crippling to a character.
