Persona of Death

Generally, cast in conjunction with animate dead, this variant of mask of death makes a corpse (or a relatively intact zombie) to appear to be a living person. If the body is animated, it can be made to look, sound, move, and behave like a specific individual. Of course, the caster must have a good idea of how the duplicated person sounds and acts. The persona is fairly superficial, but those who don't know the duplicated person very well are usually fooled unless there's a reason for them to be suspicious. Even people familiar with the duplicated individual can be deceived for short periods of time. Note that while the body may have the appearance and mannerisms of a particular individual, it is mindless and has none of the individual's memories or knowledge. The caster must maintain conscious control of the corpse to direct its movements, speech, and behavior.

The material component is a drop of doppelganger blood.
