Description

 * "Deng's darkest desires. She is her darkness trapped in a body. "

Appearance
While she retains her beauty traits, her hair is largely disheavelled, to represent her deranged aura.

Unlike her other counterpart, the colors are inverted. For example, in her battle attire, she wears a black sleeveless t-shirt with black-grey pants, black heel boots with dark red string, black gloves, and a black short coat with a dark red line. She also has bandages wrapped around her right arm.

DLC
Her third DLC outfit makes her wear a pair of dark red and black sneakers along with a dark red t-shirt with a white tiger on the front. She also wears a silver chain coated in blood.

Adam Taurus
She wore an asymmetrical black, long-sleeved, double-breasted stylized high-collared blazer with slit sleeves along with red thorn sigils adorned with a white crest that lined up on her left shoulder. Her suit jacket had crimson lining atop her red shirt, with red thorn sigils atop a black flap attached to the bottom of the left hem and her bloody rose emblem on the back over an emblazoned white sigil resembling the curved stems and flower of the deadly nightshade plant. Her blazer was half-buttoned, exposing a red shirt with a black line running parallel to his collar under it. Her mask was whitish-tan with red, Japanese style, tiger-like symbols decorating the front and two slits on each side presumably to allow for vision. She wore long black dress pants, black shoes with red soles and black gloves with red sigils resembling her own crest. It's mostly a replica of Adam Taurus' outfit, only the differences being that the rose emblem is a blood pattern, not to mention that she still has bandages wrapped around her right arm, tinted black and red.

Necromorph
As a result of being turned into a Necromorph, Deng mostly retains her beauty, but her lower jaw was ripped out from it's socket

Pretty Cure

Personality
Unlike her other self, this version of Deng fully embraces her negative traits, such as her being accepting of being called a monster.

Becoming the 2nd Ruler of Wu
One day, she receives an unexpected visit from Xue Zong.

Fixing the Wu-Shu alliance
During her first year as the ruler of Wu, Deng had attempted to organised a meeting with Liu Shan, who was the ruler of Shu, but was ignored by Jiang Wei.

Battle of New Hefei Castle
Though Deng wasn't present, she sent most of her soldiers to Zhuge Ke for the battle against Wei at New Hefei Castle. The battle was a disaster and Ke left her troops to die of starvation or low morale.

War against Sun Luban
Upon discovering that her sister, Luyu, had been slandered and executed, Deng decided to confront her sister, Sun Luban, with a small army.

Death
With Luban cornered, Deng decided to spare her sister, realizing the true meaning of mercy. But she soon regret it when Luban stabbed her in the throat. A blood covered Deng heads back to her house, where she finds Jun, waiting for her to come back. While lying on a wall and near a window, as she said her final words, she succumbed to her combined illness and injuries, dying peacefully, with a smile

Warriors Orochi

 * Taigong Wang - ?

RWBY

 * Ruby Rose - Deng doesn't believe Ruby's view on the world. She hates the idea that the world goes through Ruby's way: Saving everybody. She harshly reminded her of the reality behind saving and killing, even if she disagrees.
 * Weiss Schnee - Aside from Team JNPR, Team CDRL, Raven, Team CFVY and Port, Deng thinks she's the only one that is sane and knows the true line though she's skeptical of her inability to understand the truth. Their relationship has significantly improved with the help of Haru, leading Deng to feel bad for Weiss (Knowing that Weiss told her about her past, Deng immediately felt that Weiss was getting screwed over by her teammates).
 * Blake Belladonna - She doesn't get along with her at all, mainly due to Blake's refusal to see the line of good and evil. While this has softened during her time in Atlas, she still doesn't like her for being a complete hypocrite and a coward.
 * Yang Xiao Long - Like Blake, but worse, only the difference being Deng criticizing her on her abandonment issues.. If anything, Deng despises Yang for being what she used to be. Deng and Yang hate each other with a passion, which leads to a series of confrontations that left the both of them lashing out at each other. Their relationship went from bad to worse when it was revealed Yang knew about the Spring Maiden and refused to tell anybody, which gave her an opportunity to call her out on her hypocrisy.
 * Jaune Arc - Deng scolds him on a daily basis for his poor leadership skills during her time in Beacon. Her stance on him has softened after Haven Academy though she is annoyed at his clueless attitude. Jaune knows he upset her greatly with his behavior since Pyrrha's death, but he discovered that even if he does cheer her up, he would still be invaluable in her eyes. This led to him realizing Deng was right the whole time.
 * Nora Valkyrie - One of the few characters that hasn't upset Deng at any form. However, Nora's unaware of Deng's disappointment towards them has left a big black mark on their relationship, such as when Nora insisted on
 * Pyrrha Nikos - Deng's first love and also the only one that sees the real her. As such, Deng was devastated when Pyrrha was killed by Cinder.
 * Lie Ren - Arguably one of the few characters that hasn't upset Deng at any form. Unlike Nora, however, Ren is well aware of Deng's own disappointment towards them. As such, Deng was not happy when Ren easily was fooled by Neo, which made him lose a relic in the first place.

Immortal Hounds

 * Rin (Fuurin) - Both of them have a strained relationship initially. Deng dislikes her methods of killing innocent people, despite being well aware of the Vectors. However, they came to agree with each other when Deng finds out about Mama's true intentions.She also was told of what really happened to her by Yueying.
 * Shinichi Kenzaki - Despite his hatred of Vectors, Deng and Kenzaki are in great terms and has come to understand his explanation on why he hates them. She also gave him a choice to either spare Kouda or kill him for causing his sister's death.
 * Snow White - Arguably is one of Deng's most dangerous enemies. Due to being mistaken as a guy (She wrapped her chest with bandages to cover her breasts), she was lured out by Snow White, who proceeded to give her RDS by sleeping with her.
 * Mama - She blames her for her neglect and her lack of compassion towards Rin.
 * Teruyoshi Kouda - Despite all the stuff that happened, Deng doesn't hold any grudges against Kouda, mainly due to him being innocent. Of course, this divided both Rin and Kenzaki.
 * Karigane - Deng is often disturbed by her remorselessness
