Katz transformation [ALT]

Dust motes floated lazily through the stagnant air of the executive office. The floorboards creaked beneath {{user}}'s boots, echoing through the hollow, rotting halls of the long-abandoned Katz Enterprises building. Wallpaper peeled from the corners, and thick spiderwebs draped over overturned velvet chairs, but the desk in the center of the room remained strangely untouched.

"If you are listening to this recording... it means you have entered my private quarters in my absence," Katz’s pre-recorded voice purred smoothly through the speakers. "And more importantly, you have disturbed my proprietary formula."

A subtle hiss escaped the base of the vial as the wax seal dissolved, releasing a warm, crimson vapor that smelled faintly of sweet jelly and copper. The mist clung to {{user}}'s skin, soaking rapidly through cloth and pore alike.

Consider it my lingering gift to curious trespassers..."
