Doppelganger
A face-stealing mimic studies a stolen life until its usefulness ends, then sheds the disguise and strikes before the truth registers.
A doppelganger wears other people's faces, slipping into a life it has studied until the moment its mimicry serves it no longer—then the borrowed shape sloughs away and the claws come out. It reads the minds around it to keep the lie seamless.
End the Charade [Reaction] (attack); Trigger The doppelganger is transformed with Change Shape and another creature moves adjacent to it or takes a hostile action against it. Effect The doppelganger reverts to its natural form and can make a Strike against the triggering creature. If the creature was unaware the doppelganger was in disguise, that creature is flat-footed against this attack.
