Name: Valerie Mallory
Hero Name: Udug
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Personality:
True to herself. If there's one thing that Valerie can't stomach, it's fakery. She's lived life behind a mask before, it just thinking about it makes her feel sick as all fuckin' hell, and so she's damn well done with it. She's not the kind of gal to pretty herself up or tout herself as the crusader of some noble cause beyond the ken of mortal men. She's just here to do what makes her happy, and what makes her happy is mauling the shit out of two-bit stains on the gene pool who think that being born with a flashy power gives you the right to fuck people's lives up.
Background:
That one weird kid in the back of the class. The one with no friends, and that look in their eye that both stops anyone from wanting to bully them or be friends with them. Valerie was one of those unfortunate kids that were born with a Quirk that she couldn't hide. Her eyes, teeth and eyes were obvious tells of her aberrant nature, after all.
That's the story she told people. Beyond the superficial ears of wiry fur and piranha teeth, her proper Quirk bubbled beneath the surface, and it was so gross that ever she thought of it as such. In her youth, Valerie could count the number of times she's transformed on her hands, or well, just one of them actually. The first time she did it, she threw up afterwards, the second time she did it, her parents threw up not even afterwards, and the last time she did it, she decided she'd never do it again.
Her parents weren't terrible about it, but she could tell that they never quite looked at her the same way after she discovered her Quirk. They were just a bit too kind, a bit too generous, and spoiled her a bit too much. She appreciates that they, at least, weren't the type to up and abandon her, but she's well aware that her younger sister definitely gets more invites to catch up and chat than she does.
Through the rest of her school years, she learned to blend in a bit. She, eventually, managed to pick up a couple of friends, but never got comfortable enough around anybody to really 'let loose', as they say. It wasn't until her college years that Valerie really came into her own.
Valerie's college debut came a little late and a little unconventionally. During her third year of study, something snapped in her. She was sick and tired of hiding who she was, and constantly being terrified of someone finding out about her big, bad secret, so she decided to make herself a bigger and badder one. She popped the cap on the Quirk she'd had bottle up for so long, and became a vigilante. The monster that eats evil, the freak that fights villains, or something else overly dramatic. She eventually graduated from college, but never from her cathartic little hobby. The Udug, as she'd taken to calling herself, was her to stay.
And it was hungry.
Quirk:
Something Wicked - A disgusting transformation Quirk if there ever was one, Valerie is able to transfigure her body into what can only be described as a writhing mass of fur, muscles, and teeth. Her transformed state doesn't possess any supernatural abilities per say, it just has a lot of bits that are good at bashing and smashing, and sets of teeth and claws that are good are ripping and tearing. Her fully transformed state is very unwieldy, and as aught to hurt nearby allies as much as enemies, so she's gone out of her way to get a handle on partially transforming her body. She can transform any one of her extremities at a time, but no more, as she doesn't have a good enough control of her Quirk for that.
