Homebrew Special Case Race Nymph/Doppleganger

First Post
I am hoping that this great community would give this (mostly) lurker some advice (balancing and whatnot) on this race i've created.

This Half Nymph - Half Doppleganger is not meant for general PC consumption, but you never know where things go..., so balance is not really an issue except for the fact I do like to be fair with my players. These stats are a first draft, and the only change i'm thinking of is possibly a change of the Awesome Beauty to some form of marking.

Basically this is for a DM PC that is going to be the orphaned daughter of two PCs from our defunct 3.x campaign. (can you guess what their races were? :) )
