==Summary==
Doppelgangers are a genetically bred race of shapeshifters, often employed as assassins and spies for wealthy benefactors. In their true form they seem almost akin to a greyish elf, though they generally take the form of a shapeless grey humanoid.
Their most notable ability is their easily-used shape-shifting powers, allowing them to take over the form and mind of the target. This is generally used just before attacking the mimicked target, who is disposed of immediately.
Doppelgangers are self-centered and noted to be oddly powerful for their weak-looking "true" form.
Other forms of Doppelgangers exist, such as the Greater Doppelganger, the peak of the manipulators of the species that is capable of completely taking over large groups of people all at once, or the Ethereal Doppelganger, who uses their shapeshifting and Ethereal powers to seek out magic items of great potency

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
<tabber>
|-|Base Abilities=
*Detect Thoughts: Doppelgangers are capable of constantly reading and analyzing all thoughts around them, both to mimic the personalities of those they shapeshift into, taking their memories and performing their expected tasks (often being even more "like them" than the original), or in combat, predicting every move and every action long in advance to the action being performed, countering it easily.
*Shapeshift: Doppelgangers take every facet of the target, to the point of mimicking what they carry.
|-|Greater Doppelganger Abilities=
* Consume Identity: Unlike other Doppelgangers, these specimens can absorb the memories and thoughts, as well as their abilities (save for those originating from holy might). This is much akin to the Mind Flayer method of performing this, by devouring the brain of an enemy. Once performed, the Doppelganger can call upon that persona indefinitely so long as it does not consume too many others and forgets it.
|-|Ethereal Doppelganger Abilities=
*Assume Identity: Allows the Doppler to absorb memories and the like from targets. 
*Brain Lock: Allows the Doppelganger to mentally paralyze a target, rendering them inert. Typically this is followed by a Plane Shift to bring them to a position of power within the Ethereal Plane whilst the Doppler takes their identity. 
*Mind Wipe: With a touch, can remove all memories of the Doppelganger's existence from a target's mind.
