Description
This Bandit moves as though in great pain, perhaps something is wrong with their shoulder?
When killed the bandit is revealed to be a doppelganger, and with a DC 10 investigation check a rune can be found branded on the doppelganger's shoulder -which is likely what forced into the position of spying on these bandits.
The brand appears to have been painful and denied the doppelganger much of the grace and subtlety that makes it so dangerous.
