Someone on chat had a theory that the extreme changes only happen to those who fully embrace the darkness. That is one possibility. That actually makes sense, and explains why Emma suddenly changed after turning Hook. JMo also said, the idea was that Emma manifested as a swan. I read a theory, that Dark Hook is meant to be mirror image of himself.... as the biggest difference, is that he parts his hair on the opposite side.
