Doppleganger is an expansion unit for Malifaux. He belongs to the Neverborn faction.
Overview
The Doppelganger can be almost anything you need it to be. Doppelganger can (0) Mimic any action on a Non-leader models stat card or Upgrade as long as it doesn't list a model by name. It can be either an enemy or friendly model's action and there is no resisting if you want something from your enemy. Doppelganger can't declare Triggers with these actions but you can still make it a huge advantage, should you fail something important (Example: a Lure from a Beckoner, you basically get 2 more chances to that with the Doppelganger, if you get the right Trigger to Mimic (Tomes) you get to do the action 3 times).
The Doppelganger also brings more than that to your crew, with Ill Omens you get the possibility to cheat the Initiative flip before you or your opponent use Soulstones. This can be huge as usually in every game comes a time when it's crucial to win the initiative.
If that's not enough the Doppelganger also has the Ability Don't Mind Me which allows it to make Interact actions while Engaged, which in the right Scheme Pool can be a great advantage.
All this for a very reasonable price of 7 Soulstones becomes a bargain and should be considered in many Neverborn lists.
