Doppelganger
|
A Doppelganger is a player who returns role investigative results as if they were instead another player. The Doppelganger is usually informed of the player they look like.
A Doppelganger can be negative utility, especially if they are appearing to be scum.
Standard version
A Doppelganger returns role investigative results as if they were instead another player. They appear as the other player's alignment and role to investigative roles.
Doppelgangers don't interfere with action investigators like a Tracker.
Use & Balance
A Doppelganger may be equivalent to either a Miller or Godfather, and will appear as an incorrect role to Role Cops.
