A player character encountering their doppelganger

Field Agent Keith Nance's mission Go to the Arachnos Base 

Combat Start:
I've got you now, Character, you won't get away with ruining my name!
Did you think I'd let you get away with killing all these people?
Wait...something is...different about you...
75% Health: You're trying to confuse me, aren't you?
50% Health: Your tricks won't work on me, I know what you're up to!
25% Health: Ugh...you've gotten stronger since our last confrontation...!
Defeated: Maybe...this was all just a...misunderstanding...


Field Agent Keith Nance's mission Defeat your evil double 

Before Combat: Come out! I'm here to face you!
Combat Start: You! So you're trying to ambush me, are you?
75% Health: W-Wait! Hold on! You're the good version of me, we have no reason to fight!

Briefing

We don't have much time to talk. The one I seek is the same one you pursue as well.

  • So, you're the good version of me?
No, you're the good version of me, and I'm here to find the evil version of me.
  • Wait, wait, -you're- the mirror of -me-.
No...you're the other me...!
Okay...look...I think we might go about this for days. Let's just settle that for me, you're the mirror me and I'm the original, and for you, I'm the mirror and you're the original.
  • Where did you come from? Are you a clone?
No, I'm my own being, like you are, just from...somewhere else.
Where you came from, I came from. Just not in this dimension.
  • Did you find the evil version of us?
Our evil double is somewhere in here. We could take him / her down together, just say the word!
You remember Keith's last message to you - your evil double's minions kidnapped Keith's superior. If something isn't done, it could be the end for his superior - who was the one person who believed you were innocent in the first place!
  • I need you to help out S.A.M., one of them was kidnapped.
Alright, I'll help them, I'll leave our evil double to you, Character!
  • Right!

After Conversation: I'll rescue the agents, you make sure to take care of the evil us!


Special Agent Jenni Adair's mission We're on it. 

Your Double:

This is your double, Character. I'm in the base now.
I'll be working on taking down the defense grid so you can access the computer.
I'll let you know if anything comes up in the meantime.


Special Agent Jenni Adair's mission We're on it. 

Your Double:

And...there. You should be clear to get to that computer.
Looks like disarming their defenses set off an alarm...!
I'll be OK. You focus on getting to that computer!


Special Agent Jenni Adair's mission We'll take care of it, don't worry. 

Your Double:

I think I've found something left behind by Burkholder.
Looks like some oil was leaking from his robotic arm.
Doesn't seem too terribly advanced, but is he desperate enough to use Clockwork technology?


Special Agent Jenni Adair's mission We'll take care of it, don't worry. 

Your Double:

We've got a problem!
Burkholder got away from me, I'm being swarmed by the 5th Column.
He's heading your way, you need to stop him!

Alright, I'm in the main portal room.
...no! Protean...he's already activated the portal! The army is pouring out...wait...what the..?!
The army...Character...it's US!

Explosives Triggered:

This...is looking...bad...Character...
5th Column...starting to come in...I've triggered...the explosives...on the generators here...
The reactions...might occur near Protean...so be...careful...while you're fighting...him...

Destruction Sequence Started:

I've started the destruction sequence. I...I couldn't disable the portal through...any other means...

Control Room Burning:

I...can buy you...some time...Character...to defeat Protean...but you need...to get out of here...as fast as possible...after that...

Control Room Engulfed in Flames:

I'll...have to stay...to make sure...the clones don't disable...the destruction sequence...just make sure...to get out of here...

Get out of here...Character...there's not much...time left...!

I would've done...the same...
But this...has to be done...only one of us...has to die...today..

Goodbye...Character...
It's up to you...
...you have two worlds...to defend now...

Notes

  • The Mirror Self's appearance will be based on the first player character to enter the mission where it can spawn. This may result in a doppelganger who looks nothing like the mission holder, which may result in mismatched dialogue with the mission holder.
  • The Mirror Self's Power Sets will match the mission holder (or first player who enters the mission), but it will not have access to Power Customization. Instead, it will use original colors for its Power Sets.
  • The Mirror Self's Power Sets appear to be derived from Mission Architect's Custom Critters - for example, a melee power set lacking a range attack such as Martial Arts will have access to a heavy hitting ranged shuriken attack not normally seen in the Power Set.
  • During Closed Beta, the Mirror Self was heavily implied to have originated from Praetoria. Due to negative player feedback (who may have had plans for their own Praetorian doubles), the dimension which the Mirror Self originated from was changed to an unknown one.
