Dupe

A Dupe or "Trick", was a mutant who appeared by all standards to be a normal human, but that yet had mutant genes. Dupes were feared by many because of their ability to morph into regular society unlike other more noticeably disfigured mutants, giving them the risk of conceiving mutated offspring. Dupes could be distinguished from non-mutants by very slight mutations however, such as strange birth marks, piercing eyes, or heightened sensitivity to touch or noise. A notable dupe was the Emperor Hannibul Washtenaw's mistress and concubine Jyriana, who conceived his mutated daughter and later rightful successor Irene the Faceless.
