About doppelgangers
Capable of morphing their physiology to impersonate other humanoids, doppelgangers have served as cunning spies, political envoys, and assassins.
Doppelgangers will disguise themselves as other humanoids, then try to 
enemies by reverting to their true form. Successfully ambushing an enemy allows them to use their multiattack.
