Yajukon

"AAH!! My... my body is on fire!! What have you injected me with!?" - Akane Hitarashi as she begins to transform into her monstrous alter-ego for the first time.

Akane Hitarashi aka Yajukon is a character created by xMonsterGirlsHideout who appears in the HydroVerse series of comics, she is a vicious animalistic humanoid that cannot be reasoned with in any shape or form. Formerly a humble high school student named Akane, she was kidnapped and taken to a distant island near Japan by an evil scientist known as Dr. Kobayashi Idagawa and experimented on with various animal DNA.

The result was a mindless creature with a tendency to feast on the flesh of anything that was unfortunate enough to step into her line of sight. Those who have survived encounters with Yajukon refer to her as the "Red Beast". Ever since her fateful transformation, Akane has been trapped within Yajukon's consciousness, watching as her new alter-ego feasts on the innocent.

Early Life
Akane Hitarashi was originally born in Japan and moved to the USA where she continued her studies and attended Downpour High, where she was as gifted as she was in her home country. In school, Akane didn't have many friends as she barely managed to speak English.

She mostly hung out with her older brother Kiyoshi, who would focus on his aspirations of becoming a marine. Akane would also walk home with Kiyoshi as their parents believed that walking home would be good for them both.

Becoming a Monster
As Akane was walking home from school, she had previously made plans with him to pick her up in his newly acquired car but he never showed up. This resulted in a mad scientist named Dr. Kobayashi Idagawa, who took her to a distant island via boat near Japan where his secret lab resided.

Kobayashi strapped Akane to a chair, as she planned on using her as a guinea pig for his twisted experiments. Despite Akane's pleads to return home, the mad scientist injected her with a serum comprised of various animal DNA which caused a burning pain to shoot through Akane's body.

This resulted in the once humble student horribly mutating into a vicious, red-haired beast that instantly slaughtered Kobayashi after breaking free of the ropes that bounded her. People who travelled to this island began disappearing, resulting in it becoming an urban legend known as the Red Beast of Yajukon Island.
