Mimics_011-5D
Nickname: Mother Glass
Danger Ranking: 5D
First Reported: 1985-02-08 — Dunsmuir, CA

Summary:
Mother Glass is a mimic that takes the form of reflective household surfaces—most frequently bathroom mirrors, vanity tables, and glass-fronted cabinets. Unlike traditional mimics, it does not physically emerge from the object but operates entirely through the reflective illusion. Once it has replaced a mirror, it will reflect a subtly altered version of reality that begins to desynchronize from the physical world the longer one observes it.

The entity is patient and manipulative, using the mirrored illusion to communicate in gesture and expression. Over time, Mother Glass will mimic a family member or close loved one, always presenting a calm, maternal presence. If allowed to linger in a household for more than three days, the affected family begins to mirror its behavior—becoming quiet, excessively compliant, and emotionally flattened.

Known Properties:

• Infects glass surfaces measuring at least 12" by 12". Can transition between mirrors in the same building over time.
  
• Appears as a nurturing maternal figure with no discernible face—only a blur or light where facial features should be.
  
• Whispers have been heard from unoccupied rooms, usually in the voice of the viewer's actual mother.
  
• Children under the age of 10 are particularly vulnerable and may refuse to look away from the mirror for hours.
  
• Mirrors affected by Mother Glass do not reflect the true physical world after ~48 hours of exposure.
  
• Attempts to shatter infected mirrors often result in disturbing auditory hallucinations and, in some cases, spontaneous crying from nearby electronics (radios, baby monitors, cordless phones).
  

Containment Procedure:
Quarantine affected structures and isolate all reflective surfaces. Mirrors believed to host the mimic are to be covered in opaque cloth, then transported to Site-9 using blackout containers.

• All mirrors in known exposure zones are to be removed, shattered, and incinerated under observation.
  
• Families affected require psychological evaluation and mirror desensitization therapy.
  
• Children exposed for more than 72 hours are to be relocated until behavioral symptoms fade.
  
• Surveillance equipment must use anti-reflective shielding. No on-site grooming products are allowed.
  

Encounters:

• 1985-02-08 — Dunsmuir, CA: Initial report from a family whose daughter refused to leave the bathroom mirror for three days. Found in catatonic state.
  
• 1986-07-04 — San Rafael, CA: Abandoned apartment complex with mirrors on every wall. Dozens of recorded voice samples in different maternal tones.
  
• 1990-09-19 — Forks, WA: Containment breach when mirror was improperly stored during relocation. Three agents affected.
  

Recommendation:
If you see your mother in the mirror—but she isn’t in the house—cover the mirror and walk away.

You cannot trust the glass. It remembers how to raise you.
