Leona's hair turn red/dark pink. Her pupils are completely white like Orochi lori's (though in some artworks, its appear to be glowing red or glowing yellow or green or sometimes retains as normal).

When Orochi's influence takes over, Leona loses control and becomes feral, attacking anyone in sight. However, starting with The King of Fighters '99, if the Orochi power is kept in check, she can maintain her usual personality even while using the Riot of the Blood. This means she can now control.
