The nerve of her! Coming here with your face!

The Mistaken Identity Meme

There are infinite universes, and only a limited range of human features. Whether your character is a twin, a triplet, a clone, a shapeshifter, a really good makeup artist, or just played by a reasonably prolific actor, there's someone out there in RP land who's a dead ringer for them. Shenanigans are practically required to ensue.

You know the drill. Post, tag, profit.

prank ⇄ We can't wait to see their faces when they figure it out! Isn't split-screen technology nifty?
mutual advantage ⇄ I'd rather be her, and she'd rather be me, so we came to an agreement. It's better this way.
went too far ⇄ Look, it's just that we switched clothes for a lark. I'm the real prince, why won't anyone believe me!?
infiltration ⇄ Of course it's me. Quit fooling around and let me into the secret facility already.
chance resemblance ⇄ Should you tell them you've never seen them before in your life, or should you play along?
mind games ⇄ There's no better way to mess with someone than to impersonate their nearest and dearest.
fall guy ⇄ It wasn't me! It was my identical twin! He's always getting me in trouble.
decoy ⇄ Your job is to keep the heat off your double, so make it convincing.

[Space Aladdin... yeah. Would love to do stuff with Disney characters in regards to that, but also up to general mistaken identity shenanigans. Ezra often lies about who he is and might claim to be Jabba the Hutt, Lando Calrissian, Palpatine's nephew, and so on. Or we can bring back shadow holograms from that one TCW arc???]
