Disguising a low-level BBEG
« on: July 31, 2012, 11:49:20 AM »
Consider a level 3 BBEG Changling that is trying to infiltrate the upper ranks of a city. What types of items would you give her so that she appears concealed to many mundane spells (such as detect evil). For example, I gave her a Ring of Mind Shielding to keep her alignment and thoughts a secret. What other items (keep it under 10,000 gp/ea) would you give her so that PCs of equal level would be fooled to believe she is a law-abiding citizen with a good heart.

Custom Item of Disguise !!
No really, just pick multiple different bonus types.
True Seeing still beats it.  The Doppelganger
should be trained in Know Religion + Arcane
so he/she/"he" can slowly learn who looks like
what, that may have that specific spell.

Divinations still work too ... but so long as he
doesn't do all that much, Divs can't get much.

Your codpiece is a mimic.

The disguise skill isn't beaten by true seeing

Mundane disguise techniques aren't beaten at least.  Disguise Self would be however.
