A red ethereal copy of the user is ripped out of the user and untangled into a bundle of red string, which weaves into a eye that bulges out of the object. The ethereal pupil constantly shifting positions.

You hear bones bending and cracking. The skin pulling, transforming into something else, before it is completely covered in black fur. If she wasn't large and towering before, now she sure is. Her face is contorted in an unnatural and beastly way, forming a muzzle just like a wolf, covered in black fuzz and fur; the same goes for her ears, the flesh and cartilage shifting position and becoming something more dog-like. The scars she had on her nose, eyebrow and cheek remained, as well as the rest of her body. She is now over 2 meters tall, and her muscles are larger, stronger, and covered by fur and torn clothes. She grew a set of claws adorning her now bigger hands, but the palm of her left one has a noticeable moon-shaped scar. Her yellow glimmering eyes stare into your soul and tell you she's eager to spill blood. Her muzzle contorts into a grin, exposing her large canines: she's ready to fight.
The harbinger's "little shop" was full of powerful stuff for sure, but she deemed it all useless and she felt lost. She needed more power, she needed it to kill them all. But she didn't know how.
And then the strange man came to her with something in his hands. "This might help you. To quench your thirst for blood. To take revenge. To kill all of them just like the animals they are." It was an abnormally large wolf skull, but there was something off about it. He took a canine out of it and handed it to her. She knew what to do the moment she felt it in her hand. So she pressed the large tooth onto her skin, which already started to drip blood, and she cut her left hand with it. She felt the power flowing through her blood, her body, her soul. She was cursed, but now she had the means to fullfill her vengeance.
Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action.
