Monstrosity, the player should roll a
Nature Check using the DCs in the table below. On a success, the player is able to harvest the item.

ITEM:
Doppelganger Blood (3 vials)
A doppleganger's blood is a dark red, almost black, fluid with a low viscosity and a rainbow sheen. When the vial is held, the blood changes color to match the blood of the creature holding it.
Use: When you (or another small or medium-sized humanoid) drink a vial of this blood that has a drop of a humanoid's blood mixed into it, you polymorph into that humanoid's race (you will not turn into an identical version of that creature, but retain many of your own characteristics. For example, if you are bulky and have long red hair, your new race will be bulky and have long red hair). This effect lasts for 1d4 hours. Your statistics, other than your size remain the same in the new form. Any equipment you are carrying or wearing is not transformed. You revert
to your true form at the end of the duration or if you die.

ITEM:
Doppelganger Face
Harvesting this item involves the delicate process of skinning a doppelgangers face. If carefully removed, the resulting skin appears to be a morbid mask of flesh. Artificers and enchanters may be able to use this "mask" to tap into the doppelgangers transformative abilities.

Doppelganger Brain
A doppelgangers telepathic abilities can be studied from the brain of such a creature. To the untrained eye, a doppelgangers brain looks identical to other humanoids brains.

CRAFT: Helm of Telepathy (DMG)
Most crafting items have an acronym associated with it, such as "DMG". These acronyms refer to specific guide books. For example, "DMG" refers to the "Dungeon Master's Guide". The acronyms for HHH and HHH2 refer to Hamund's Harvesting Handbook, a homebrew harvesting guide that offers a variety of homebrew (not official) magic items.

Meat
There is a stigma to eating meat belonging to sentient creatures that have a humanoid form and features. Harvesting the meat may be frowned upon and even considered cannibalism. Some communities may refuse to buy the meat (and some evil communities may pay a premium). The meat may even be difficult to eat, or unedible. Of course, these are all up to the Dungeon Master to decide.
This creature produces 6 pieces of meat, weighing a total of 24 lbs.
Random Roll: 2d6 = 6
Medium creatures produce 2d6 worth of meat.
The table below shows how much meat an
inexperienced butcher may be able to harvest from a creature, especially after a battle may have ruined some of the meat (i.e. burned, frozen, poisoned, etc.). If a
whole creature's carcass is brought to a butcher, the butcher may pay 4x the value rolled in the chart below for the carcass (if the butcher even WANTS this kind of creature - DM discretion). Of course, carrying a heavy carcass can be difficult, and the creature's bacteria that kept it alive will begin to ruin the meat, spoiling it within a day.

† The weight of a raw piece of meat is 4 pounds. And one slab of meat (4 lbs.), can be used to make 1 dried ration (2 lbs.).
‡ Raw meat has a very short shelf-life, and will go bad within a day if it is not refridgerated or cured.
⋆ The table above uses a standard price of 5cp per pound for regular a piece of animal meat (such as cattle or deer). The value of meat can vary drastically, depending on the quality, rarity and the creature it is sourced from. For example, dragon meat could cost 10x more than standard livestock meat, while insect meat could cost only a copper or two per pound. A DM can decide if that is adequate, and if certain meat is worth more or less.
