Malefic Beastification.
This is a phenomenon that usually occurs in Sacred Beasts and has never been found in humans.
But whether it's impossible or unknown is worth considering.

There are various cases, such as staying in a place where malefic energy is dense or being attacked by a Malefic Beast.
In general, humans who are exposed to the malefic energy become grotesquely distorted, lose their sense of self, and end up wandering around as Malefic Humans.
A few humans, however, embrace the malefic energy and survive as Malefic Beasts instead of Malefic Humans.
And so their tragedy begins.

Humans who undergo Malefic Beastification experience a great deal of confusion about their identity.
In the heat of the moment, they may lose control of their emotions and become a Malefic Beast, and when they regain their sense of self,
they may find themselves in the presence of their loved ones who have already been slaughtered.
Given the general perception of the malefic energy across Seon, they cannot even think of showing their true nature to anyone.
Inwardly, they must always remain calm in order to maintain their human self without being consumed by the malefic energy,
and outwardly, they must hide themselves to avoid being seen as Malefic Beasts.
Those who cannot withstand the tragedies that befall them may eventually choose to give up their ego and live as a full Malefic Beast.

Those who do not give up, however, continue to live as humans.
Those who survive know what they must do to continue living.
They must hide themselves and give meaning to their lives.
They want to find answers to the trials that have befallen them.
And ironically, it is the malefic energy that has brought them tragedy that helps them the most.
They still roam the dark streets today.

As the Vigilantes, they are the watchers of the night.
