-Upon entering a new zone, there is a 5% chance that an evil twin will spawn. The following message will also appear:
+When a creature with Evil Twin spawns or moves to a zone that they haven't been in since obtaining Evil Twin, there is a 5% chance that an evil twin of them will spawn. If the originator is the player, a popup appears that says:
 {{qud quote notxml|&cYou sense a sinister presence nearby.}}
-The evil twin is a complete copy of the character, including items, skills, and mutations, except feelings about all factions are set to -100, except [[Highly entropic beings]], which is set to 100. This means that if the evil twin cannot find or reach you, they will strike at any other creature that is not part of the [[Highly entropic beings]] faction. The twin does not come with any followers that the player character might have accumulated in their party.
+The evil twin is a complete copy of the character, including items, skills, and mutations, with the following exceptions:
+* The twin does not themself have Evil Twin.
+* They are aligned with [[highly entropic beings]].
+* They are aggressive, meaning that it takes more reputation than usual to pacify them.
+* They are initially hostile to their originator.
-Evil twins are part of the hidden [[:Category:Playerhater (faction)|Playerhater]] faction, which is specifically designed to be always hostile towards the player, regardless of the reputation the player character has with the Playerhater faction.
+The player character getting killed by their evil twin unlocks the achievement [[Your Better Half]].
-The evil twin will also perform a reequip action while spawning, so unequipping an item before entering a map is not a possible strategy as the twin will reequip the item again. This reequip also check inside chests that the player character is currently holding.
+Evil twins of creatures that are part of a party will also be part of that same party. This may override their hostile feelings towards their originator.
-Getting killed by your evil twin unlocks the achievement [[Your Better Half]].
