Dopplers were shapeshifters who coul take the form of anyone or any beast they have encountered, provided it had a similar body weight. Additionally, they took on not only the characteristics associated with the form they had "borrowed", but also their clothing, equipment and even abilities. The creatures themselves are not described in any great detail in Sapkowski's work. Only a rather brief mention that they had a humanoid shape and rather long limbs, noses and tongues.

One particular doppler, Tellico Lunngrevink Letorte, alias Penstock, was a central figure in the short story "Eternal Flame", in the short story anthology, Sword of Destiny.
