Years ago, the Acolyte mice brought necromancy to the Kingdom. Their undead creations rose from the depths of the Catacombs, with the sole purpose of destroying Gnawnia. Hunters’ lore states that the first-ever MouseHunter devised a way to turn the spells of the Forgotten Book against the Acolytes and banish them to another realm of existence, somewhere between the dead and the living. Had it not been for Plankrun’s heroic efforts, the small village of Gnawnia may never have become the prosperous town it is today. Now that they have returned, the Acolyte mice are amassing their creations, preparing to achieve their dark destiny: the eradication of each and every MouseHunter!
Mouse ID#: 57


The Acolyte Mouse is a breed of mouse found in the Acolyte Realm. They are known to drop Mysterious Box.

Preferred Cheese

Acolyte mice have been found to be especially attracted to Runic cheese, to the point that any other kind of cheese will simply not suffice.

Hunting Strategy

Forgotten type traps are the only weapons of normal effectiveness against Acolyte mice (the rest being ineffective). As such, the Ancient Box Trap is currently the only trap that works against Acolyte mice, being a Forgotten type weapon.

Alternatively, Hunters who do not have the Ancient Box Trap but still would like to capture an Acolyte Mouse may consider having the luckiest trap setup available. This was the strategy Hunters used before the Ancient Box Trap became available.

History and Trivia

  • Acolyte mice were first discovered after a glitch occured while the developers were clearing out the account of a known scammer. Along with the Dragon Mouse, the Acolyte is one of two Arcane-type mice currently in the game.
  • On the Dojo header image, it seems that the two mice standing guard are Acolytes.
  • On 30 September 2009, Acolytes began to drop Frozen Scrolls alongside Mysterious Boxes. Hunters with previously unopened Mysterious Boxes were credited a Frozen Scroll, while those with a Frozen Scroll were given another Mysterious Box.
  • In MouseHunt 3.0, Acolytes no longer drop a Frozen Scroll. Instead the Mysterious Box now always gives a Frozen Scroll plus one random item.
