Overview

Not much detail exists concerning Doppelgangers. Any individual encountering their Doppleganger will find themselves face to face with their own mirror image. This double will look and sound the same and will possess the same powers, but will have a mind entirely their own. The Doppleganger may be working toward the same end as their counterpart or may be pursuing an entirely different goal. It is not certain whether Dopplegangers are clones or beings from alternate dimensions, but each considers itself to be the original and will view any other version as just another copy.

The villain Protean, in connection with Praetoria, appears to be behind the doppelgangers. He is heavily involved with the 5th Column and cloning labs. Furthermore, although at the end of both story arcs involving the doppelgangers they all appear to have been destroyed, a random NPC dialog would seem to indicate that at least one clone from Leonard Silmon's arc survived.

Appearance and Powers

A Doppelganger will spawn in the costume your character is wearing at the time it spawns, but it will not change costumes afterwards. Dopplegangers share your power pools, but may exhibit specific powers you have not selected, especially if they are "flawed clones". They do not appear to have access to any Veteran Reward powers that you may own.

NPC Types

Clones

From barely more than the goo scraped from the bottom of the cloning vat, to a version so flawless it could pass for you in your own mirror, clones are the result of what some call "forbidden" science.

Flawed Clones

Clones Gone Horribly Wrong

These clones use the same models as the Banished Pantheon zombies, and are even labeled as part of the Banished Pantheon villain group. They can be found in the first mission from Leonard Silmon

They include such specimens as:

Rancid Clone
Undeveloped Clone
Clone Gone Horribly Wrong
Destroyed Clone
Disgusting Clone
Putrid Clone
Walking Corpse
Horrific Clone

Description

This...isn't exactly a clone of yourself.

Levels

20-29

Powers

Banished Pantheon Zombie powers here

Flawed Clone

Encountered in Dean MacArthur's last mission. This clone will have your supergroup labeled as its villain group. While this clone actually looks like you, there is still something not quite right. Perhaps with some better technology it could be improved? Please add what happens if you are not part of a supergroup

Description

This clone is almost your exact replica, but it seems like something isn't quite right with it.

Levels

20-29

Powers

This clone spawns with a seemingly random set of powers. See this thread on the official forums for examples.

Perfected Clones

Perfected clones not only walk like you, talk like you, but they shoot flame/blast energy/pound things with their fists like you! These clones will have your supergroup name as their enemy group. Please add what happens if you are not part of a supergroup

Working Clones

These clones are encountered in Special Agent Jenni Adair's final mission. You can see them in a cutscene and in the final room, where they will have been defeated.

Test Clones

These clones have been created in your own personal cloning lab. You must face them in the ____ mission from Leonard Silmon, to ensure that the cloning process works correctly. Although they are stated to be "perfected," they may still have a few minor variations in power selection. They include:

Angry Clone
Serene Clone
Rude Clone
Profane Clone
Self-Absorbed Clone
Shy Clone
Insane Clone
Perfected Clone

Description

This is one of your perfected clones.

Levels

20-29

Powers

These clones have a selection of powers from your powersets.

Badge

The Army of Me Badge is awarded upon defeating these clones when set to fighting eight test clones at once.

Badge

You don't understand the math behind it, but you're pretty sure you're equal to or greater than eight of yourself.

Your Evil Mirror

Encountered in Field Agent Keith Nance's arc, this clone is an evil version of you. It will spawn wearing your current costume, with some minor color variations. It is a good enough clone that it is able to fool many of your fellow heroes and a government agency into believing that it is you.

Description

It's...you! But...not you. Sort of. Whoever this person is, they must be the one responsible for ruining your name!

There may be a second description, from the second time it is encountered in Nance's arc. If so, please add it

Levels

Powers

This clone has a selection of powers from your powersets.

Alternates

Doppelganger

In Field Agent Keith Nance and Special Agent Jenni Adair's arcs you will encounter a duplicate of yourself. This duplicate claims to come from another dimension. Its appearance will be the same as yours in every way.

Description 1

You see before you a strange doppelganger of yourself!

Description 2

This person seems to match you in every way, shape, and form.

Levels

Powers

This clone has a selection of powers from your powersets.
