Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Chris Bradford, later known as Dogpound and eventually Rahzar, began as a renowned martial arts master and celebrity instructor in the 2012 animated series, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He operated his own dojo and served as a dedicated follower and enforcer for Shredder.

Initially a human character, Bradford's intense loyalty to Shredder and inherent aggression led to several transformations. His first mutation, resulting from exposure to mutagen, turned him into Dogpound, a hulking canine mutant with enhanced strength and durability.

However, Dogpound's mutations were not yet complete. Later, an attempt to destroy the Turtles with mutagen backfired, resulting in his further mutation into Rahzar. As Rahzar, he became a skeletal, wolf-like creature with pyrokinetic abilities, retaining his loyalty to Shredder but growing more unstable and monstrous.

Throughout the series, Bradford's character arc showcased the dangers of unwavering loyalty and the corrupting influence of Shredder. He was a formidable opponent for the Turtles at every stage of his transformation.
