Fierce Deity

The Fierce Deity is a transformation state in The Heart Commandos. It is the primarly form used by Melony in most of the battles. First originated in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, the Fierce Deity is considered one of the most strongest forms ever in the series that has mysterious origins behind it.
==Origins==
According to several historians and founded manuscripts they managed to translate, the Fierce Deity form was set to have originated in Early Medieval Italy, sometimes around the Second Wave of the Migration Period. Originally, an ancient race of sub-humans called Deinos use this form only for rituals to pray for their god, Avratarus every 100 years or so, but how they got these powers is a mystery, same thing to its creator. They then decided to use it for combat, which led to the first reports of a person going wild and killing everyone on sight, that alternate transformation was known as Beastly Deity. It's unknown what happened to the original citizens afterwards, but speculation ranges from lack of goverment help to massive genocide as a result of these savage people.
In 1099 AD, they resurfaced in a village close to Rome under a strict law, which is that they cannot leave the town while under their Fierce Deity form, otherwise it will cause trouble outside and not repeat the mistakes their ancestors did before. While the ritual is pratically the same, alot of changes were made so that the person will have more responsability on this power, so now the ritual is turned into a festival celebrated every year. Unfortunately though, this does not last long, as one prominent member went savage and killed almost an entire civilization of the town before commiting suicide.
The last few Deinoses survived the genocide; a family of 4 consisted of the man, his wife, a son and a daughter. This family will later evolve into De Luce clan, who are destined to protect themselves by repressing the Fierce Deity power using their own ritual created to achieve peace, hence why the red marks seen all over their hair. In 1680, the remaining members were wiped out accidentally by two of their daughters, Francesca and her sister Catia, who are then adopted by wealthyman Cavanzarro Maroni. Prior to their passing, both girls were the last members of not just their clan, but an entire race as well.
The Fierce Deity went dormant for 390 years, so much so that its considered nothing but a legend by the general public, until its current bearer, Melony, managed to awaken it by pure accident in front of her classmates and teacher.
==Abilities and Appearance==
Whenever a person enters this form, they gained immense strength, flight, and a mystical sword capable of slicing anything in half. The sword can also fire a projectile out of it by a simple swing. No matter what person bears it, they will have a red face paint, black eyes with white pupils and turquoise clothes to symbolize this change.
There are multiple weaknesses to it. One is that it requires a high amount of concetration to held it longer, when the person is unfocused, then they will lose consciousness. The other is that when negative energy and high amount of stress are gathered long enough, the person will completely lose humanity and becomes a monstrous beast with a single-minded obsession of killing anyone who stands in their way, hence why they run with four legs and having a huge instinct to detect incoming threat. This form is called Beastly Deity by its people.
While in this state, the person's speed is increased tremendously, but only uses its claws to attack the victim at a ferocious force. These claws are so deadly that can inflict a nasty poison to the victim in a matter of seconds. Their appearance becomes an inverse of their normal form; brown hair, white eyes and pupils, and grey clothes, the facepaint was replaced with a big scar on their forhead. The only way to turn the person back to normal it is by calming them down for a few hours. It is extremely rare to have someone retaining their humanity while under this Beastly Deity form, as the last time it happened was in 1320 with a monk named Giovanni Romano Graziani.
According to the myth, there was a unnamed third form that combines both the Fierce and Beastly Deities together to make a perfectly balanced transformation, as Heaven and Hell intended. There's no solid evidence of this form even existed.

==Trivia==
*In the original source material, the Fierce Deity is named after the mask that Young Link can wear to transform into this state that highly resembles his adult self. It can be obtained after obtaining all twenty four masks and trading them (except three) to the Moon Children, though its method of activation and its Beastly Deity form in The Heart Commandos are inspired by both Dragon Ball Z and The King of Fighters.
*The Italian name for the Beastly Deity form is a reference to the infamous name in the Italian re-dub of Princess Mononoke when reffering to the god, Shishigami.
