If you give a Doppleganger a relic, does it work?

I noticed when my Dopple was holding a Blood Buffing relic at 10 Blood yesterday that today he'd lost blood. So, my question would be that do any of the relics work on the Dopples?

I would have thought that they would but I can't say for 100% certain. I know the blood buffer relic won't work if the character isn't active but you say that the Dop was active the day before so that wouldn't be why it didn't work. Looking at what has been written in the wiki and on the original update there is nothing that implies that relics should be excluded from Dopples that I could see so I'm marking this a B for now.

Yeah, he's still losing blood.

And it doesn't seem to matter whether the relic is equipped or unequipped - just FYI.

I didn't automatically think this was a bug because I'd never had a Dopple hold any relics before and the Blood Buffing relic makes it obvious if it's working or not. LOL

I vaguely recall someone once telling me it doesn’t work on thralls like the bane does?
