Ectoplasmic Disguise(Physical Psionic Power) is one way.

"Trouble rather the Tiger in his Lair,
Than the Sage among his Books,
For all the Empires and Kingdoms,
The Armies and Works that you hold Dear,
Are to him but the Playthings of the Moment,
To be turned over with the Flick of a Finger,
And the Turning of a Page"

Anybody with the Disguise skill and/or Cyberdisguise implants.
Pretty sure there are any number of spells too, not to mention creatures like Auto Gs, Changelings, and so forth.

Races
Auto-G (Rifts WB30 DoNA)
Changling (Rifts Conversion Book 1r)
Amorph (Rifts WB12 Psycape, WB30 DoNA, just the looks though acting is another matter)
Phlebus (WB30, possibly)
Robot RCC (SB1o/r, technically as you could create an Android to look like an individual, with the right implants you could even allow them to change on the fly w/n a certain range)

Powers
Ectoplasmic Disguise (Psionic)
Metamorphosis: Human (Invocation Level 8, presumably other Metamorphosis spells can also work for other cases)
Mask of Deceit (Invocation Level 6, limited to face/head)
Shapechanger (Major Super Power)
Hensho-Jutsu/Art-of-Disguise (WB8 Japan MA Power, RCB1r might also convert it from N&SS to a Psionic Power)
Face of a Friend (DB3 PW SB, Oni Ninja Techniques-psionic in origin)


Implants
Cyber Disguise Types: AA-1, AB-2, ASH (Blackmarket)
Commercial Cosmetic Cybernetics might also be helpful (depending on the subject, not an on-the-fly situation)

I've often wondered if Deevils, Devilkin, Pandemoniums and Nexus Deevils could mimic someone's appearance exactly. I'm inclined to think they could, but I don't remember now if they can. Anyone remember if that was addressed anywhere?
