Her skin molts and left in its wake is a Reptilian Human.
In an instant Cynthia begins to grow slightly in size. Her blood begins to run cold. Her skin sheds off as if she was molting and is replaced with reptilian scales. Her hair falls out leaving a bald, scaly, and pointed head in its wake. A tail begins to spurt out of her behind piercing her clothes. Her fingers and toes begins to grotesquely elongate into claws. Her eyes turn bright yellow and narrow as she molts. Her tounge grows long and her teeth large. The only thing human to remain is her coat, shirt, and pants which all strain to fit the reptilian form.

You transform into Lizard-Human for 3 minutes. You have access to all of your Powers while you are Lizard-Human, and you can use your equipment.

Ppimperton gives a tap of his Pimp-Cane or a snap of his fingers, and he concentrates a moment. He names which Bitch he wishes to summon, and then with a growl he reminds her aloud that he *owns* her and threatens/cajoles/something her. She obediently steps out from behind him, appearing from within his shadow.
Alternatively, he might concentrate a few moments before tossing a roll of cash off toward a corner, and the hand of one of his Bitches pops out of a shadow to catch the money. Ppimperton then demands she get her ass out here, and she pulls the rest of her body out of the shadow.

When Lucas activates the barrier, the cape undergoes a dramatic transformation. The outer fabric darkens significantly, absorbing surrounding light and casting a shadowy aura around Lucas. Spectral, gnashing teeth appear along the edges of the cape, moving and clamping as if eager to bite. A faint, sinister hissing sound accompanies the visual, enhancing the eerie atmosphere.
As an attack comes towards Lucas, the cape responds by flaring out, the spectral teeth gnashing more fiercely. The attack is visibly absorbed by an invisible barrier that forms around Lucas, the impact creating a ripple effect through the darkened fabric. Observers would see the attacker’s blow deflected and feel the supernatural force of the cape’s defense.
