this is dahlia! so i'm absolutely in love with the fairy tale angle, and i think the roles and perks being structured around them is such a fun idea. i was also really intrigued by the potential for religious horror! i'm not sure how well it would worth in tandem with the fairy tale theme, but i think there's at least room to explore cults, rituals, sacrifices, etc, especially if they relate back to the monster transformations and psychological horror elements.
i'm not sure how much of a mechanic you wanted the transformations themselves to be, but i imagine some characters would find the prospect of transforming horrifying, while others might seek it out because who doesn't want to go crazy and stupid sometimes. i'm also not sure if you had something in mind irt what provokes a transformation, but i think it would be interesting if the characters took it as a random occurrence. because then you just don't know who's next!! who is beast and who is not, and all of that.
i also like emery's idea of the forest being its own entity that wants to eat you.
