Along with the previous abilities the mime has access to an invisible chair.

If boxes and chairs don’t strike your fancy, this ability can be used to make any object invisible for a brief time. It can also be used on your fellow crewmembers to make their clothes disappear, much to their annoyance. | |||

You cannot talk unless you press the Speech button in your Mime menu. However, to speak as a mime is the ultimate taboo! A mime communicates through gesture. This is his art! Noise is the place of that wretched clown, not a true performer like yourself. In emergencies, a note on a piece of paper can do in a pinch. Such a critic. Make sure your gestures actually make sense to an observer. Use custom emotes to talk and your ass is going to get banned. | You cannot talk unless you press the Speech button in your Mime menu.

Keeping with mime flair, the stealth items are always handy when you are a [[traitor]]. And, no one will expect you to speak, ever, so you never have to communicate on the radios. You start with a pair of white gloves, so you don't leave prints on a crime scene or your traitor items. Since a mime is expected to have a pen for writing notes, the [[syndicate_Items|sleepy pen]] is a particularly good choice. | Keeping with mime flair, the stealth items are always handy when you are a [[traitor]].

It can be especially effective offensively in two key ways. The Invisible Box itself is harmless when thrown, and makes little to no noise. Unless you click the invisible box itself or examine the tile, its impossible to know where it has ended up. Importantly the contents of the box remain active and durations continue, so paired with a grenade you can cause quite the surprise explosion. Just always remember, if the box expires in your possession, its contents will drop at your feet. | It can be especially effective offensively in two key ways.

There's several obvious benefits that make it a great choice for a player without a particular plan in mind. When standing still and placing one, you can move out of it in any direction. Taking a moment to consider your next action inside of one is always an option. | ||

Nearly any room can quickly become a death trap if you are able to lay down a wall quickly in front of the only exit. Many rooms on the station with maintenance access have only one entrance, so presuming they escape into the tunnels and not the main hall, you only get increasingly effective as their movement options narrow. | Nearly any room can quickly become a death trap if you are able to lay down a wall quickly in front of the only exit.

While only useful before for a quick break on your feet or a way to seemingly levitate your friends; the chair does hold some valuable use for any mime who needs to execute a kill or subue someone. It can buckle as any chair can and this alone is very useful if someone finds themselves suddenly, seemingly inexplicably disabled. These key moments can make the difference between their defeat or yours. | While only useful before for a quick break on your feet or a way to seemingly levitate your friends; the chair does hold some valuable use for any mime who needs to execute a kill or subue someone.
