I-a. Late Night Transformation (CW: Body Horror)
[Unfortunately for Elliot, he loved staying up late. It was his favorite time to compose, to work on music, and just enjoy the late night. As such, he'd been taking a late night walk when the fog rolled in. At first, other than the odd purple tint, Elliot didn't take much notice of it beyond noting the lessened visibility. It was probably a sign he should start in the direction of home.

But before he could reach home, the effects started kicking in. In the street, he doubled over in pain. So many parts of his body suddenly burned with pain as they start to change in ways they weren't supposed to, and much faster than monster changes usually happy for mirrorbound. Horns began growing out of his head, his shoulderblades bulged and twisted
before blue feathery wings sprouted from his back, scales and claws begin to form and so on. He manages to drag himself to a nearby alley where all he can do is curl up as the pain and changes continue. It should be easy enough to find him, as he keeps making pained noises as this goes on.]


I-b. Transformation, sans body horror!
[Either the pain finally subsided, or he passed out from the pain and woke up when it was finally finished. Whatever the case may be, slowly he becomes aware of what just happened. Horns, scales, claws, wings, a tail and other dragon features covered his body. His clothes were torn up from the sudden transformation, and he looked like he had a rough night altogether]

Aidios, how could this...?

[He was a witch wasn't he? Why did he have sudden dragon features? Slowly, he becomes aware of the rest of the chaos going on the street. He wasn't the only one who'd experience such rapid changes. Just what happened?

In a better state of mind, he'd probably stick around to try to help people. But he just turned into a dragon, so he's freaked out enough to let his anxiety win this one. He pulls himself up and starts trying to make his way back to his house. Maybe you see him trying to head there, stumbling to keep his balance on these new body parts.

For the people he lives with, he finally comes through the door sometime around dawn - hours after he usually comes home from late night ventures. ]


Anyone home?!

II-a. Feral Fun: Dragon Hoard the Musical
[For most of the first day, he sticks close to home as he gets used to these sudden changes. He feels more agitated than usual, but it's hard to tell if that's a sign of going feral or just because of the night he had. It's Elliot, so even him agitated is far from intimidating.

By the evening, however, the monster instincts become too hard to resist. He slips out of the house. There, you might find him among the junk piles locals had set out for Samhein, digging out any instruments (or anything that could be used for music really) to take for his own hoard. His eye for musical treasure soon stretches past the discarded junk pile. Left an instrument unattended? He's swiping it. Cellphones from your world? He's heard there's MP3 songs on those things, so he's grabbing those too? That random bucket you were using for cleaning? Well, those can be made into drums- so it's his.

Luckily if you catch him, it's easy enough to get back your stuff. He'll hiss and maybe swipe some claws at you, but he's still weak enough to be easily overpowered. Even his "dragon breath" is nothing more than a stream of bubbles. He's not even fast if he tries to run. So honestly, you have no one to blame but yourself if you fail to get back your stuff. ]


II-b. Feral Fun 2: 🌶 (established CR only please)
[Monster instincts or not, Elliot is not an aggressive person. He avoids fights and would probably lose any fights he got into. Being a dragon would not change this, and even his wild animal brain knows this.

However fighting things isn't the only things love to do. So if he happens upon any guys he finds attractive? He might feel more embolden to do something about it instead of being timid. So he'll move closer to them and attempt to get their attention by... flapping his wings, and bobbing his head. Maybe even hopping around if he feels strongly about it. Is there an explanation? No. It just felt like the thing to do.

Maybe it'd be better for everyone if you knocked him out. ]


III. Sanity Returns
[While the physical features seem to stick around the whole time, he finally manages to regain his head entirely by the third day. And so, he'll help out where he can. Healing, patrolling with his friends, trying to pretend the last two prompts didn't happen. If you want help from a healer or a friend, this is your time. ]
