EXPLANATION
What is the Impostress?
For one, it's another title for Klara herself! The exact origins of the moniker are very difficult to trace - Klara certainly didn't make it up. The first place I've been able to trace it to is the name being thrown by another possible player character, Artemiy Burakh, who I am certain would have heard it from someone else first. So the name propagated among people largely before Klara even met them, and it stuck.
Interpreting it this way, it means that very many people built up a persona of what Klara was like before even coming into contact with her. Old legends were dug up and whispered all over again. Shabnak-adyr, they said, but mostly it was "Impostress." The Impostress began to represent everything that the panicking populace wanted to pin on this mysterious, other girl - because frankly, she WAS observed doing very suspicious things.
So, the Impostress Persona is everything Klara was blamed to be. The plague bearer. A creature spat out from the earth. A thief who transgressed the Law, whatever it was.
Appearance wise, it literally looks just like Klara, but with creepy buttons over her eyesbecause of Meta
To somewhat illustrate the confusing dichotomy the game sets up between Klara and the Impostress, this is the information you're greeted with upon starting her storyline. Notably the Impostress is in this referring to Klara herself, as she wakes up literally in an open grave. The line between who is 'the fake' or the derivative out of the two is played with and blurred.
So what better to be her other self than her other self?
