Doppler Mutagen
Distasteful is one way to describe the idea of portraying yourself as someone else. Another way would be useful.
This is one of many mutagens that make some people, particularly religious authorities, rather....twitchy about the ever expanding capabilities of science. For this mutagen gets rather uncomfortably close to letting people act as some sort of skin changer, and in a lot of cities possession of this chemical is considered a minor felony. Most places won't charge a chemist for possessing the formula or research, that isn't illegal. But the ingredients and the chemical can be.

Mechanics & Inner Workings
CN: 18, Tier II; 23, Tier III; 28
Toxicity: Ingesting this concoction will deal 1d10 poison damage, or half that if the drinker can manage to succeed a Toughness Defense Test. If you are foolish enough to be trying to use more than one Mutagenic Compound at once, this damage increases by 3d10 for each mutagenic compound you've injested previously that is still acting upon you, and you would be afflicted with Toxic (3) Condition.
Duration: 4 hours
Basic Effects: This mutagen is unique in what it does. You can, with taking but ten minutes of focus, become, visibily and by almost all methods of detection, someone else. You keep your mental attributes, you keep your personality, but you physically become a perfect spitting image, down to the physical attributes, of someone else. you must know the person in question, must have a good image of them in your memory. You retain your own memories. But your voice changes to match. You are still you, your personality remains unchanged, but you learn one or two key personality quirks or traits as you shift into this individual.
Rank II Effects: Now when you wish to change, it only takes five minutes of focus, and you also can emulate any supernatural abilities (like spell casting) that the person should have, but these would all be illusionary, not real
Rank III Effects: Now when you wish to change, it takes two actions of focus. You also now get surface knowledge and memories that the person should have (these are dictated at your GMs discretion).
