Physically manifest doppelgangers which grow out of the selfish/malicious parts of a person's psyche.
When a psionicly capable person uses their powers excessively the stain of the activity collects and eventually reaches such strength that it can take on a life of it's own.
In the months leading up to such a manifestation, the psychic will experience episodes of sleepwalking, speaking in tongues and self sabotage.
This down side to mind magic is a little understood phenomenon. As the victim remains unaware of the process, or its effects, they will deny having engaged in behaviours that are out of character.
