Doppel
- Ability Score Adjustments: +2 Wisdom, +2 Charisma, -2 Strength: Doppels are extremely cunning and charismatic, but lack the muscles of other races.
- Medium-size: As Medium-size creatures, doppels have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.
- Speed:Doppel base speed is 30 feet.
- Shapechanger traits: As shapechangers, doppels have darkvision up to 60 feet. In addition, they are immune to spells that target humanoids, such as charm person and hold person.
- Racial Bonus: +4 racial bonus to saves against all sleep and charm effects.
- Shapeshifting (Su): Doppels can cast alter self a number of times per day equal to three plus the doppel’s Cha modifier. The doppel casts this spell as a 12thlevel sorcerer and can remain in the chosen form indefinitely, even while unconscious or asleep, although a doppel reverts to its natural form if killed. The alter self ability is used to transform the doppel into a humanoid of either Small or Medium-size.
- Racial Bonus: +2 racial bonus on all Bluff and Disguise checks. When used in conjunction with alter self, doppels receive an additional +10 circumstance bonus to Disguise checks only.
- Automatic Languages: Common and Draconic. Bonus Languages: Dwarven, Elven, and Orc.
- Favored Class: Rogue. A multiclass doppel’s rogue class does not count when determining whether or not there is an XP penalty for multiclassing (see PHB, Chapter 3, Experience for Multiclass Characters). The deceptive nature of a doppel’s existence makes the class of the rogue a natural fit for them.
- Level Equivalent: +0
