Any way to be in two places at once?

Hi guys, I was wondering if there were any spells, or items, or abilities that allowed a Character to be in two or more places at the same time. Whether through possessing multiple bodies, or some other means.

So for example, the Character could be in Waterdeep having breakfast, and at the same time he could also be halfway around Toril in Suzail having drinks in an Inn.

Or perhaps just a way to have parts of him be in different places, but still have conscious control over them all?

Cheers.

Plenty. What level, what distance between locations, what duration, and what sort of tasks are you talking about (conversation is easier than physical presence which is easier than spellcasting)? And will a telepathically-bonded duplicate do (because that opens up Simulacrum hijinks).

Well, erudite spell to power is the best way to go if you want to be in multiple places. Shadow Mind PrC gives you a shadow duplicate. There are psionic powers that let you be in two places at once (fission). And you can also learn Body outside body. So, yeah. Here. Wrote a handbook on Erudites a while ago.

I think I'll just wait 2 levels and rework the Epic Spell: Eidolon.

Or just use Clone, to make more of myself, and then the Epic Spell Seed: Transport, to transport a part of my soul into my clones, as per the Eidolon Spell, that makes the Duration Instantaneous, if I use the same rulings int he Eidolon Spell, I'll have to be 22nd level, and that will make two of me at 21st level. Seems like a win to me.

Anyone have any thoughts on how I could go about creating a Hive Mind though?

Cheers.

EDIT: By Hive Mind, I mean something similar to the Formian ability. Not so much the No Flanking ability (although that is pretty cool), but more so the "constant communication" and "aware[ness]", the idea being that my Character will still be One Person, though he will possess Multiple Bodies.
