"Ooh, this one's trauma-induced! Don't mind if I do-" Karyn exclaimed, never one to pass up the opportunity to make Luciano's life harder. A single finger pressed to the burnt temple of one side of his head, and then his mind was away -- wracked by the knowledge of a fraction of the suffering she had inflicted on her victims: entire worlds destroyed at a whim, eternal damnation inside of some twisted sitcom, pain beyond words for millions of poor souls: perhaps billions.
__Luciano staggered backwards from the sudden assault on his psyche, staring in bewildered horror as the damaged skin of his arms turned vaguely translucent, allowing him to watch as the bones of his arm violently split: first once, then twice, before liquefaction set in and what was once bone fragments piercing his flesh drew back as 4 separate tentacles, performing the actions of each individual arm with much improved precision.__
__The disruption of his body seemed to expel some chunks of bullet shrapnel that must've been left inside of his body from The Crackshot, warping and lengthening until it became an unwieldy shotgun in his hands.__
"Ewww, your skin's all fucking gross and dry! Ashy, do you know what that means?? I swear, you should've just died in that fire and made things easier."

When his mortal body becomes damaged enough, Leon sheds his corporeal form and returns to his spiritual body. His mortal form discorporating into a cloud of white ethereal wisps before coming together to form a translucent whirlpool of energy from which he emerges as a man sized nine tailed fox, eyes ablaze with green flame, and each of his nine tails proudly on display. Though the process results in him briefly experiencing a total void of sensation as the body is shed and it leaves him disoriented and feral for the short time it takes him to reconstitute a new form it's utility is inarguable.

A solid pitch black circle appears and moves over or intercepts the movement of an object. When stashing or unstashing a worn object, the circle moves over Sarah, making the object either disappear or reappear as it does so. (see Marvel Comics for visuals of donning clothing, it moves like Magik's teleport circles or Power Pack's costume change circles)
Inspired by cartoon circles in various Warner Bros cartoons, Sarah came up with this when she realized she was more than just a normal pwca/pooka now. She's still at least keeping with the theme of a shapeshifter whose primary form is a rabbit.
