“Infernal Rebirth: Embracing the Demon Within”
2 Points
You awaken in a lavishly decorated room, feeling a sense of disorientation as you scan your surroundings. Dark, ornate furniture and silk drapes catch your eye, as well as the unmistakable scent of cigar smoke lingering in the air. Your fingers clutch at your head because an ache pulses through it, memories and experiences colliding within your mind in a chaotic maelitude.
"Where... where am I?" you whisper, your voice inexplicably deeper and more gravelly than it should be. Panic begins to bubble up inside you as fragments of your human life flash through your mind, but they are fuzzy, distant, already slipping away like grains of sand.
You stumble to a full-length mirror hanging on the wall, hoping for answers. What you see isn't your own reflection. You see a tall imp demon staring back at you, his yellow sclera eyes wide with confusion. White hair cascades over a high-collared red shirt, a deep blue coat complementing the ensemble. The horns, the reptilian muzzle, and the sharply carved features clear any misunderstanding—this isn’t you, or is it?
"No, no, no!" You clutch at your head even tighter, hoping to shove away the dizzying vertigo and restore your human self. But instead, the memories of another life—Crimson’s life—start breaking through. You see a grand mansion, your mansion, in the Greed Ring of Hell. You remember the faces of the shark-like gangsters that make up your army. More and more, you remember violence, cruelty, power... all associated with this Crimson you have somehow become.
"I need to remember. I need to remember who I really am!" You shout into the emptiness, but there is no response. The pressure in your head intensifies. The loving faces of human friends and family disappear into a black void, replaced by memories of ruling with an iron fist, of Moxxie's pathetic face twisted in fear, of disdain for weakness and sentimentality.
Even as you grasp desperately for the dwindling remains of your former human self, you find them slipping further away. All you can see are scenes of Hell, your Hell, and your role in it. The ache in your head grows too excruciating to bear, forcing you to let go, to give in completely to the transformation.
A wry grin spreads across your face as you straighten up, the name "Crimson" fitting more naturally into the contours of your mind. The haze lifts, revealing only one clear identity: the ruthless crime boss who runs this underworld empire with an unyielding grip.
"What a ridiculous dream that was," you chuckle to yourself, shaking off the last of the disorientation. "As if I could ever be some pathetic human."
The smooth fabric of your red and blue attire feels right against your skin. You adjust your black fedora with its red and white band, checking your reflection again, now fully settled into your imp-self. Your sharp fangs glimmer when you smile, convinced now that this is reality, and that weak, transient life as a human was nothing but a swiftly forgotten nightmare.
You stride out of the dressing room, walking through the corridors of your mansion with purpose. Your gang awaits your commands, and the Greed Ring of Hell remains under your watch, just as it always has been. Moxxie, that weak excuse for a son, will learn his place, and anyone who dare challenge your authority will find themselves swiftly hanging from the walls as a gruesome decoration.
As you near the grand hall, the oppressive smell of sin and smoke sharpens your focus. The life of power, fear, and unrelenting cruelty you embrace brings you comfort and satisfaction.
"Crimson," you say to yourself, sealing away any lingering doubts, "Time to get back to business."

Prompt: Write the POV transformation story of the human reader turning into Crimson (from an adults cartoon/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 kid 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 white hair, black and white striped horns, and yellow sclera. 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 (including his feet) appear to be plantigrade (just like a human's), rather than digitigrade, but still have red cloven hooves (unlike human 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 that controls a large army of shark-like demon gangsters. 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. 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 dressing 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).
