Homebrew Doppelganger Species Details
Doppelgangers are deceptive, tricky, and hedonistic, though not necessarily evil. They seek to impersonate others for personal gain, and often cooperate with allies in order to do so. In a party, Doppelgangers make excellent Rogues, with a natural talent for deception and subtlety.
