Luz Noceda has become this in Season 2. She has a more aggressive and violent personality, with a mean streak and fewer quarrels about using lethal force but its not hard to feel for her. She has gained a Hero with Bad Publicity status back at her hometown, due her having a body count from the Deadly Game she was forced to partake in. Has assassins out to get her, including her own trusted cousin, leading to brutal fights were innocent people get killed in the crossfire. She's even tricked into believing she killed her mother with Deadly Force Field by one of the assassins, completely unaware she was Dead All Along and is unable to stop the Golden Guard from destroying Gravesfield in their battle. To say Luz gets put through the wringer here is the understatement of the decade and she hasn't even reached The Boiling Isles yet. Hell, even All For One is starting to feel sorry for her as she breaks down crying in his arms and tries to comfort her.
