After a certain party, where she asked Gen-Wyld for better mods - and a willingness to pay, of course - she was denied. After ~~storming out~~ leaving the party, she was approached by another. He offered what she wanted.

Attending a ceremony of the Red Grail, she was offered a chance to drink from it. And she did.
She only remembers what else happened that night in her redmost dreams.

She awoke the next morning in her bed, her body aching. Her fur and bed both soaked with sweat and other fluids. Her muscles - her entire body - bulges and there's a soft feeling of electricity in all of it.

She just hopes the tremors in her paws go away. Cyclobenzaprine seems to help with that.
