Formulae Voluptuous There exist some pleasures intense enough to corrupt the laws of the physical world.

The power to temporarily transform into a Red Grail Priestess.
Used by Emily Miller, Created by Polymorph.
On Legendary Artifact Blood Pendant.
(While you are a Red Grail Priestess, you are obviously transformed and unusual. )

Emily collapses to her knees for a moment, and she locks her paws together. Her claws piece her own flesh, and she remembers, just for a short time, the night that she drank from the Red Grail.

The transformation starts from the blood that stains her claws, the fluid roiling for just a moment before it begins to run up her claws, paws, and her arms. The blood turns into thin, fluttering fabric that moves softly almost by itself. It covers her, wrapping her in many layers, obscuring her form. Her arms and legs and tail are lost in the fabric, her face shrouded in shadow. Digging though the fabric might not even find her at all... although the fabric caresses those who do.

And yet...

Everyone who looks at The Priestess knows she has an ever-present smile.

It is said that those who die at the hands (or paws) of one of the Hedonistic Priestesses always die with a smile on their face.
