Doppelgangers are a non-playable race and type of Monstrosity in Baldur's Gate 3.

Capable of morphing their physiology to impersonate other humanoids, doppelgangers have served as cunning spies, political envoys, and assassins.
In-game racial description


Overview

Doppelgangers can completely transform their appearance to mimic almost any Humanoid creature. They refer to themselves as Shallar. They will disguise themselves as other humanoids, then try to Ambush Ambush enemies by reverting to their true form. Successfully ambushing an enemy allows them to use their multiattack.
