The Corn-Infested Stevewalker appears first as a skinwalker coiled in corn stalks, with cobs bursting out of his body. His skin rots, his identity fades, yet still he rises, revived by the Necornomicon's forbidden knowledge.
After being summoned, the Stevewalker can freely shift his form into a normal human named Steve, the corn and rot vanishing, only returning when he reverts back.
The first page of the Necornomicon tells of a dark, soul-binding ritual that tethers a lost life to a still living one. A simple curse, the first trick in every necornmancer's arsenal, and yet the consequences of such a spell can be... disastrous, to say the least. The texts advise any potential users to prioritize finding lesser beings to become their soul-bound familiars, as life restored in this way is fickle and disturbing, even taxing to the caster's very being. Loved ones never return in a form that's entirely correct, and some things are better left resting in peace.
Perhaps a grief-stricken farmboy who just discovered where his heart lies was not the best person to bestow the Necornomicon unto. But whatever, close enough, welcome back Stevewalker from 7-Eleven.

Riku's body is a masterpiece of grotesque efficiency, shifting and slithering beneath his skin like a well-rehearsed ballroom dance of viscera. When danger strikes, organs sidestep the impact with uncanny precision, arteries reroute themselves like seasoned city traffic, and reflexes fire off as if someone cranked up the difficulty settings on reality. Blades glance off suddenly absent kidneys, bullets find themselves disappointed by missing vital points, and blunt trauma is met with a body that flows around impact like a smug, self-satisfied puddle of living art. Call it biology’s finest party trick—just don’t ask where his liver went mid-battle.

UA-566 is known to enter a short-term enraged state that greatly enhances their strength and reaction times.
