You wake up with a start, your eyes fluttering open to a dimly lit, extravagant room. Heart pounding in your chest, you sit up abruptly and glance around, confusion and fear gripping you tighter than a vice. This isn’t your bedroom; where are you? The surroundings are foreign, coated in opulence with a touch of eerie elegance. Massive velvet drapes hang from high windows, and dark, antique furniture dominates the space.
Struggling to your feet, your head aches as you stagger forward, legs wobbling beneath you. Your mind staggers through the fog of confusion, trying desperately to latch onto a coherent thought.
“Where am I?” The words come out in a voice that’s unfamiliar, deeper and rougher than your own. Your heart sinks further as you process this alien sound.
Rushing to the nearest mirror, terror consumes you as you take in your reflection—red skin, short white hair, curvy black-and-white striped horns, sickly yellow sclera with black slit pupils. The stark contrast of your reflection against the dark room sends a wave of panic through you. What happened to you?
“This can’t be real,” you mutter, gripping the edges of a nearby dresser with fingers that end in short claws.
Memories of your life flash before your eyes. Friends, family, work—each moment slipping like sand through an hourglass. You cling to them desperately, trying to hold on to the remnants of what seems to be slipping away. But as you struggle, another wave of dizziness hits, and the edges of your vision blur to white.
“No! I need to remember—I can’t forget!”
You press your hands to your temples, your breath coming in shallow wheezes. But the more you attempt to focus, the more disjointed your memories become. Images of another life, voices, and feelings push against the fragments of your humanity, demanding dominance.
Power. Ruthlessness. A life ruled by greed and fear.
“No...no,” you whisper, even as the memories solidify in your mind. A life of crime, a mansion in Hell, the constant drone of subordinates cowering in fear—it all feels so real, more tangible than your fading human existence. A particularly strong wave of aggression and malevolence makes your stomach churn.
“Who am I?” you ask desperately, fighting the internal war as your personality begins to morph against your will.
The response is immediate. You are Crimson. The ruthless crime boss, the heartless mafia leader, feared by all who cross your path. Memories of abusing your son, Moxxie, a constant undertone of contempt toward others—these are your truths, the only reality you’ve ever known.
Shaking your head adamantly, you wish for it to stop, to wake up from this nightmare and return to your former life. But with every beat of your heart, you drift further away from who you once were. Your old self feels weak, insignificant, a mere dream in the shadow of who you are now.
“This isn’t possible,” you murmur, but even your voice’s tone loses its desperation, replaced by a sinister calmness that isn’t yours.
As your grip on your human self diminishes utterly, you stand straighter. You gaze at your reflection with new, sharper eyes—eyes that reassess the world with calculated hatred, the enjoyment of power seeping into your veins.
Everything about you, you realize, is perfectly orchestrated. You are not some weak human; you're Crimson. The human world was naught but a figment, a pathetic dream no more.
Your lips curl into a wicked grin, and you mutter, “That life was weak. Pathetic. I am Crimson—a being of true power.”
The fog lifts entirely, and the last threads of humanity snap. You’re home, in your mansion in the Greed Ring. This is where you belong, commanding respect and fear. A sense of relief and satisfaction washes over you as you finally embrace who you truly are.
No longer confused, you stride to the door and fling it open with decisive force. Your memories of being Crimson are complete, every detail crisply etched in your mind. There is work to be done, matters to attend to, a mafia to lead. And, in this world, you command everything with an iron fist.
“Alessio!” you call out, the name rolling off your tongue naturally.
Your bodyguard strides up promptly, slight apprehension mixed with his dutiful respect. “Yes, boss?”
A cruel smile twitches at the corner of your lips as you look upon him. “Prepare the gang. We have business to attend to.”
As you move through your opulent mansion, you can almost feel any last vestiges of your former self dissolving into nothingness. You are Crimson now and forever, and Hell itself will tremble beneath your might.

Prompt: Write the POV transformation story of the human reader turning into Crimson (from an adults cartoon/2D animated series "Helluva Boss", made by Vivienne "VivziePop" Medrano), complete with gender change (if the reader is a female), instant clothes change (the reader's clothes instantly turning into Crimson's outfit), age change, height regression (changing from the reader's previous 5.7-6 foot height to 5.3 feet tall), reality/world change (the reader's real world warping and turning into the world of Helluva Boss), and mind/mental change (with the reader's personalities and memories being completely replaced with Crimson's personality and memories, despite the reader's best efforts on fighting these mental changes, making the reader permanently and completely forget about his past self as a normal human, he now only remembers being an imp and a mafia leader named Crimson). The transformation into Crimson is permanent (meaning it is forever) and is completely irreversible. For Crimson's appearance (after the reader turned into him), he is a quite tall imp demon, standing closer in height to Blitzo (about 5.3 feet tall, rather than being 3.9 feet tall, unlike his son Moxxie (who's an adult at 3.9 feet tall)), with literal red skin, white hair, a pair of curvy black-and-white striped horns, black eyelids, and yellow sclera with black slit-pupils and without irises. Around his eyes are white markings, with the right being larger than the left. He possesses a crooked and bent devil-like tail with white accents near the base and on the middle of his tail fork (which is on the tip of his tail). His appearance is similar to his son Moxxie, with similar hair and shape of his horns, however larger and slightly more jagged. Unlike his son (Moxxie), Crimson's skin is a darker shade of red and his legs appear to be plantigrade (just like a human's legs, including the human reader's legs), rather than digitigrade as in other imps, but he still has red cloven hooves on his feet (unlike the human reader's feet). He also has four short-clawed fingers on his hands (not five human fingers, unlike the human reader). Like all imps, he has a short reptilian-looking muzzle with sharp teeth in it, and he lacks any visible ears or nostrils. All of Crimson's teeth are sharp fangs, while one of his fangs is a golden fang unlike the other teeth (which are white). Crimson's attire consists of a red high-collar shirt that grips his neck, topped by a navy blue coat with light blue accents, thin red stripes, red buttons, and red lining. His pants are dark blue which also have thin red stripes, and his shoes are black and red-heeled dress shoes. He also wears a black fedora with a red and white band. For Crimson's personality, he is a vicious and extremely ruthless crime boss (the head of the major mafia organization) that controls a large army of shark-like demon gangsters (including Alessio, who is his bodyguard). He is shown to have been horrifically abusive towards Moxxie since his childhood, constantly levying physical and psychological abuse towards Moxxie, and by extension his wife. He cultivates an aura of fear in those that know him, even towards his own family members and close associates like Moxxie and Chazwick. Ultimately, his greed and power come first to him, and he harbors no remorse for his victims. This comes to the point that he appears mentally prepared to kill blood-related family members, such as his wife and Moxxie, to advance his personal goals. Despite this, he is capable of exhibiting a seemingly jovial, warm, happy, and even charismatic presence when he chooses to do so, such as during his initial meeting with Blitzo and Millie, or during moments when he feels comfortable. However, he can be quick to discard this external display of affection as required. Crimson is extremely prejudiced, having demonstrated to be chauvinistic and sexist towards women, as well as homophobic of his son's orientation. He would often refer to Millie as being a dame, broad, beard, and other similarly negative terminologies. He displays a lack of knowledge regarding concepts of sexuality, believing Moxxie's statement of being bisexual to simply mean he is homosexual, with Crimson disregarding his son's bisexuality and claiming he is simply gay and hiding that by marrying a woman, as claimed by his declaration of Millie being merely a "beard" for Moxxie. He furthermore holds bizarre beliefs as to what kind of home décor and wedding decorations/dresses homosexuals enjoy, such as decorating his home with a wide array of dildos in an attempt to placate Moxxie and forcing his son to wear a dress while forcibly attempting to marry him off. Here are Crimson's preferences (likes and dislikes); he likes smoking, monetary gain, organized crime, mistreating Moxxie, and hanging body parts of his victims as house decorations. However, he dislikes Moxxie's compassion and bisexuality, sentimental topics, his son or minions failing him, the state of his mafia, anyone who double-crosses him, anyone lesser than him, and anyone talking back to him. Here is Crimson's history (according to the Helluva Boss series); Crimson, through either inheriting or by creation, became the head of a major mafia organization in Hell. At some point in the past he married a woman from the Wrath Ring, and sired Moxxie, his only known child. Crimson's relationship with his wife and Moxxie was bleak, with Crimson unhappy with Moxxie's lack of commitment to his criminal lifestyle, and his wife's attempts to steer Moxxie away from said lifestyle. It is hinted that Crimson ordered Moxxie's mother to be murdered (by drowning Moxxie's mother in a lake). Crimson continued to force Moxxie to accept his criminal obligations, such as forcing him to execute demons and participate in violent skirmishes. He eventually elevated Moxxie as a fully fledged member of his mafia, prior to Moxxie's arrest. Some time before the episode "Exes and Oohs" Crimson, due to his mafia facing financial troubles, is tricked into believing that Chazwick Thurman is rich and wishes for him to join the family. In the episode "Exes and Oohs", Crimson calls Blitzo and requests over the phone to meet in person, sending a helicopter to retrieve them. When I.M.P arrive at his mansion he welcomes them inside and they sit in the lounge room to wait for dinner. During dinner he explains why Moxxie and Chaz are at his mansion but he keeps some details secret. After dinner, when Alessio takes the others to their rooms, Crimson forces Moxxie to stay, he then physically assaults Moxxie and explains to him that he will be wedded to Chaz in order to gain access to his funds. The next day when Moxxie attempts to stand up to his father, Crimson silently signals to Alessio to taze Moxxie, then after his son falls unconscious, Crimson orders Alessio to take care of Millie and Blitzo. Crimson holds a tied up and gagged Moxxie and forces him into the marriage until Millie crashes the wedding to rescue Moxxie. Crimson sends many goons to stop Millie, but when they are all killed he allows Millie to take Moxxie. As Blitzo is taken away, he exposes Chaz for his deception and lack of any money, infuriating Crimson. Later, Chaz is killed by Crimson and Chaz's teeth and jaw are mounted on the wall by Crimson in his mansion. Then, he expresses his anger of Moxxie's betrayal by throwing a dagger into a portrait of Moxxie. In the episode "Oops", Crimson interviews Striker (a hitman who is an imp hybrid with another demon species) for a job in a nearby building, telling him he needs to prove himself worthy by bringing something of value in order to join his mafia. Crimson is surprised and immediately hires him after Striker grabs both Blitzo and Fizzarolli from their nearby squabbling. Inside of Asmodeus's Tower, Crimson greets both Asmodeus and Stolas with a pre-recording from Fizzarolli's cellphone. He explains he and his mafia has captured Fizzarolli, and calls Asmodeus the weakest and most non threatening of the sins, and informs them his lawyers will be arriving with a contract, and that they have until the witching hour to sign it. Crimson then yells at a member of his mafia to cut the recording. Later, Crimson tells at Striker to watch them and not fuck them. Crimson returns to the commotion and sees Blitzo and Fizzarolli has escaped and orders his gang to chase them. After them being chased, Crimson tells Striker to prove himself, until Fizzarolli starts singing a song, which Crimson witnesses and becomes confused after Fizzarolli starts losing more things to sing about. Crimson is last seen in this episode before the building collapses on top of him and his mafia. The reader's physical transformation and the reality's change/shift all takes place before the story, so he is now Crimson in body and now in the world of the Helluva Boss series, more specifically in Crimson's Mansion (located in the Greed Ring of Hell). The story starts when the reader, now Crimson (if the reader was female before the transformation, the reader is now a male), wakes up in a room somewhere, waking up at Crimson's Mansion, confused and scared on where was he and who the reader himself was. During his confusion, his memories and personality all begins to warp and completely change against his will, making him dizzy as he hold his head with his arms, hoping that everything that is happening was all just a dream (hoping that he will wake up back in real life back and back to normal as a human), and telling himself to remember his human life, but to no avail, much to his horror (despite his will, he completely forget his human self), making him completely forget all about his human self (his personality also completely changes) and remembered everything about himself being Crimson, happy/glad to know that his human life and his human self (all on Earth) was only a dream and not real (Crimson views his human self as pathetic and weak, and he is truly glad that he's not a human, even muttering that his human self was just a dream), and he also knows that his life as Crimson (as well as having always lived in Hell since he is an imp (a hellborn demon)) being his true and only reality. There should also be quotes from the characters in this story so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the reader (you, your, etc).
