Shapechanger. The doppelganger can use its action to polymorph into a Small or Medium humanoid it has seen, or back into its true form. Its statistics, other than its size, are the same in each form. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying isn't transformed. It reverts to its true form if it dies.
Circus Training. These Doppelgangers have dedicated their life to the performing arts. While each of them has one specialty (e.g. the trapeze), they've all picked up some general circus skills. They have advantage on checks trying to catch a thrown object, climbing and contortion.
Multiattack. The circus doppelganger makes two melee attacks.
Quick Stab. Melee Weapon Attack: +7, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (3d6 + 5) piercing damage.
Throw Object. The doppelganger throws multiple near, small objects at incredible force. Ranged Weapon Attack: +6, range 30ft. Hit: 12 (6d4) bludgeoning damage.
Read Thoughts. The doppelganger magically reads the surface thoughts of one creature within 60 feet of it. The effect can penetrate barriers, but 3 feet of wood or dirt, 2 feet of stone, 2 inches of metal, or a thin sheet of lead blocks it. While the target is in range, the doppelganger can continue reading its thoughts, as long as the doppelganger's concentration isn't broken (as if concentrating on a spell). While reading the target's mind, the doppelganger has advantage on Wisdom (Insight) and Charisma (Deception, Intimidation, and Persuasion) checks against the target.
Description
Talented, ambitious and graceful: the members of the Circus are an elite team of athletes and artists. Proud of their craft, they dedicate their life to mastering the performing arts - whether it be the trapeze, dancing, cart racing, singing or knife throwing. Most of them get hired by the other guilds to perform at their establishments, but the senior or especially talented members of the guild run their own show-tents, which they call academies. Most of them see Doppelgangers as a superior race to others. Hence, some of them have gotten into trouble with the Brigade for mistreating visitors. They are the only guild which doesn't also serve a political or secret purpose within Lintoll's society.
