As the transformation begins, the character's body convulses violently, bones cracking as they surge into a towering 9-foot monstrosity. Their skin tears apart, revealing sinewy muscles covered in coarse, brownish-red fur, each strand slick with a sheen of blood. The fur pulses with dark energy, emitting an acrid, unnatural smoke. Two long, jagged horns burst from their skull, curving slightly backward, their tips glistening. Their eyes blaze with a sickly, unnatural glow, and their mouth stretches into a snarl, revealing rows of razor-sharp teeth. The transformation culminates in a bone-chilling howl, a desperate sound that seems to tear the very air apart. Every step they take leaves scorched earth in their wake, as reality itself recoils from the presence of this monstrous, eldritch being.
