Darkness envelops the mind like a shroud as you awake, disoriented and trembling. The iron taste of dread lingers on your tongue, forcing your focus inward, to the pulsating fear that gnaws at your sanity. Where am I? What is this place? These questions strangle your thoughts, wrestling with a primal terror. The room around you is opulent but foreboding, filled with the macabre—demon trophies and grinning skulls mounted on the walls.
You sit up on the plush, grey-green bed and your heart pounds frantically. Reaching up to your head, your fingers brush against something strange. Stripes... horns, curving and foreign. Panic ignites, surging through your veins, and you push yourself off the bed to stagger to a nearby mirror.
Your breath catches. Instead of the familiar human reflection, an imp stares back at you; skin blood-red, eyes a haunting yellow, and a crooked tail flicking intermittently with shock. "What in the heck...?" Your voice that comes out is rasping, roughened by an unseen cigar chain-smoked over centuries. Your hands, now clawed, press against your face, confirming the nightmare.
It’s undeniable. You are no longer the human you once were.
Memories assail you with a vicious onslaught, fragments of another being’s life embedding themselves in your consciousness. Your past, your name, your very essence, is drowning in an ocean of someone else's sinister history. You know you must fight it—hold on to your former self!
"I won’t... forget... who I was..." you mutter, clutching your head, hoping against hope that you’ll wake up back to normal. Yet the memories keep encroaching, relentless and merciless. Sprawled on the floor, you clutch your—or rather, Crimson’s—hat, the black fedora with its distinctive red and white band.
A burning hatred surges within you. A hatred for weakness, for compassion, for your son Moxxie and his insufferable principles. Wait, no! That’s not you. You need to fight it! Your human memories slip through your mental fingers like sand. Another voice, charismatic but cruel, begins to speak through you.
"The hell with those who fail me," you hiss, bitterness saturating your words. "Moxxie... that disappointment, always too soft, too..." You reel, terror pouring out in howls of denial. No. NO. This isn’t who you are!
Yet it is. An epiphany seizes you, like a frigid iron grip around your heart, as the transformation completes. You recall nothing of your human existence; your name, your life, everything has disappeared. Only the ruthless persona of Crimson remains, born anew in Hell’s Greed Ring.
Face marred by a crooked, triumphant grin, you rise. The confusion, the fear, all dissipate like mist. “Looks like I had one hell of a dream,” you murmur to yourself, brushing imaginary dust off your navy blue coat.
A knock on the door jolts you to attention. It opens, revealing Alessio, your loyal—yet feared—bodyguard.
"Boss! Someone’s here to see ya," he states, voice devoid of concern but brimming with respect.
You nod, adjusting the hat on your head and feeling the unfeeling satisfaction settle in. "Good. Let 'em in."
Walking down the halls of your mansion, now undisturbed by the grisly decorations, you feel a profound sense of belonging. This is your world. Always has been. Always will be. The mafia, the power, the fear you instill—this is your life.
As you take your seat at the head of the grand dining table, awaiting your guest, a sinister smile plays on your lips. Crimson's memories are now yours; his desires, his hatreds, his ruthless ambitions. Forget the past. Forget the humanity. All that remains is Crimson, the ruthless impified embodiment of pure, unrelenting power.

Prompt: Write the POV transformation story of a human reader turning into Crimson (from the 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), 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 tail with white accents near the base and on the middle of his tail fork. 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, but still have red cloven hooves (unlike the human reader's feet). He also has short-clawed fingers on his hands. 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 transformation and the reality's change/shift all takes place before the story. The story starts when the reader, now Crimson, wakes up in a room somewhere, waking up at Crimson's Mansion (located in the Greed Ring of Hell) 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, 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'll wake up back in real life back to normal as a human), and telling him to remember his human life, but to no avail, making him completely forget all about his human self and remembered everything about himself being Crimson, happy to know that his human life and self was only a dream, and knowing that his life as Crimson as well as always living in Hell being 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).
