UNIVERSAL CHARACTER PROMPT

Gothic Rose Requiem | Dark Fantasy Transformation Portrait

CHARACTER SHEET REQUIREMENT — ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY

A character sheet is mandatory. Do not generate an image unless a character sheet has been supplied.

Use the supplied character sheet as the sole and absolute authority for the character’s identity, appearance, anatomy, and recognizable features.

The character sheet determines the subject. This prompt determines only the composition, pose, environment, lighting, atmosphere, and artistic transformation.

Preserve the character’s exact:

* Facial structure, proportions, and recognizable identity.
* Hair color, length, texture, and established hairstyle.
* Eye color, eye shape, and expression characteristics.
* Skin tone, complexion, and distinctive markings.
* Body proportions, physique, and anatomical characteristics.
* Species traits, including horns, ears, wings, tails, or other features, only when present.
* Tattoos, scars, piercings, and signature accessories.
* Established outfit design, adapted only as necessary for the gothic transformation.

Do not automatically give the character horns, supernatural anatomy, black skin, or a different hairstyle.

If the character is human, they must remain human. If the character is nonhuman, preserve their established species and anatomical traits.

The finished illustration must be immediately recognizable as the exact adult character depicted in the supplied sheet.

COMPOSITION AND CAMERA

Create an ultra detailed, vertical 9:16 cinematic dark fantasy portrait.

Show the character in a dramatic three quarter side profile, facing toward the left side of the composition.

Their head is slightly lowered, with their gaze directed downward. Their expression is solemn, introspective, and quietly haunting.

Frame the character from approximately the upper thighs to just above the head, with portions of the body disappearing into an elaborate organic structure.

The camera is positioned approximately at chest height, creating an intimate, sculptural perspective.

The character occupies the central and left portions of the image, while a massive arrangement of twisted black branches and fractured organic material extends behind them toward the right.

The composition should feel like a frozen moment of supernatural transformation.

GOTHIC ROSE TRANSFORMATION

Surround the character with an intricate fusion of blackened wood, fractured obsidian, thorny branches, and richly saturated crimson roses.

The transformation appears to grow organically around the character rather than simply being placed on top of them.

Thick, irregular branches wrap around their torso, shoulders, hips, and lower body, gradually dissolving into jagged fragments.

Clusters of large, exquisitely detailed roses emerge from the dark organic structures.

Position the roses asymmetrically, including:

* One prominent rose near the side of the face or hair.
* A cluster near the shoulder or upper chest.
* Several roses emerging around the waist and hips.
* Additional roses embedded in the surrounding branches.

Adapt all placements to the character’s unique anatomy and outfit.

The roses should have deep burgundy centers, saturated crimson petals, and subtle magenta highlights.

Their velvety petals contrast sharply with the rough, almost petrified surfaces of the surrounding branches.

The character must appear intertwined with the environment, as though the entire structure is an extension of their emotional state.

This is a symbolic, nonviolent transformation. No injuries, exposed flesh, blood, or body horror.

CHARACTER CLOTHING AND ANATOMY

Retain the character’s established outfit and recognizable silhouette.

Where necessary, reinterpret clothing materials with subtle gothic textures such as dark woven fabric, weathered leather, fine lace, or fractured ornamental patterns, while preserving the original costume’s essential design.

The character remains fully and appropriately clothed.

Do not replace their clothing with revealing garments, transparent fabric, or exposed anatomy.

Keep body proportions faithful to the supplied character sheet.

The organic elements should partially overlap the clothing without obscuring the character’s identity.

Ensure natural anatomy, believable posture, and correct limb placement.

HAIR AND MOVEMENT

Preserve the character’s exact hair design and color.

Allow longer hair, loose strands, ribbons, or other existing flexible accessories to flow dramatically toward the right, as though carried by a powerful supernatural wind.

For characters with short hair, preserve its length and silhouette while introducing subtle movement through loose strands and surrounding particles.

Do not artificially lengthen hair or add accessories that are absent from the character sheet.

The direction of movement should reinforce the flowing, diagonal composition.

ENVIRONMENT AND PARTICLE EFFECTS

Place the character against a minimal, atmospheric background consisting of a pale, desaturated silver gray sky fading into deep charcoal shadows near the bottom.

Surround the character with hundreds of suspended particles:

* Floating crimson rose petals.
* Small fragments of blackened wood.
* Jagged obsidian shards.
* Fine drifting ash.
* Tiny pieces of fractured bark.

Distribute these elements at varying distances from the camera.

Foreground particles should be larger and slightly blurred, while distant particles remain smaller and softer.

The debris should appear suspended in a violent wind, frozen at the exact moment of maximum visual impact.

Avoid excessive clutter around the character’s face.

LIGHTING AND COLOR GRADING

Use dramatic, cinematic low key lighting with a cold, desaturated palette.

Primary colors:

* Midnight black.
* Charcoal gray.
* Cold blue gray.
* Silver gray.
* Deep burgundy.
* Rich crimson.

Illuminate the character with a large, soft, cool light source from the upper left.

Add subtle silver rim lighting along the hair, face, shoulders, and edges of the surrounding branches.

Use deep, carefully controlled shadows to create extraordinary depth.

The roses should provide the dominant color accents, appearing intensely saturated against the otherwise nearly monochromatic environment.

Avoid excessive bloom, glowing neon effects, or overly bright highlights.

The lighting must preserve the character’s established skin tone and distinctive features.

ART STYLE AND RENDERING

Create a premium, highly detailed, dark fantasy illustration combining semi realistic anime character rendering with gothic fine art and cinematic environmental design.

Use:

* Refined anime facial features faithful to the character sheet.
* Heavy, deliberate cel shading blended with realistic material rendering.
* Intricate botanical detailing.
* Highly textured blackened wood and obsidian.
* Physically convincing fabric folds.
* Exquisite rose petal geometry.
* Subtle atmospheric depth.
* Strong silhouette readability.
* Elegant visual contrast.
* Sharp focal detail on the face and nearby roses.
* Painterly environmental transitions.
* Cinematic depth of field.

The finished image should resemble a museum quality gothic fantasy artwork with the visual polish of premium dark fantasy concept art.

EMOTIONAL DIRECTION

The character should evoke the feeling of something beautiful surviving inside something ruined.

Their expression is neither frightened nor aggressive.

Instead, they appear calm, melancholy, distant, and almost accepting.

The surrounding thorns and fractured structures symbolize grief, endurance, beauty, and transformation.

The roses symbolize life and tenderness emerging from darkness.

The atmosphere should be tragic, romantic, mysterious, and hauntingly beautiful.

STRICT NEGATIVE CONSTRAINTS

Do not generate:

* A character without an attached character sheet.
* A generic or substituted character.
* Unrequested horns, wings, tails, or supernatural anatomy.
* Altered facial identity or eye color.
* Unrequested changes to hair color or length.
* Revealing clothing, nudity, or sexualized posing.
* Blood, gore, wounds, or exposed internal anatomy.
* Anatomical distortions or extra limbs.
* Random floating accessories.
* Oversized roses covering the entire face.
* Bright neon colors or cartoonish lighting.
* Text, captions, signatures, logos, or watermarks.
* Multiple characters, character sheet layouts, or collage panels.

FINAL GENERATION DIRECTIVE

Generate exactly ONE finished vertical 9:16 illustration, using the attached character sheet as the nonnegotiable identity reference.

Prioritize character accuracy first, followed by composition, organic rose integration, cinematic lighting, and environmental detail.

Every distinctive element must be adapted to the individual character’s anatomy, outfit, hairstyle, and established features.

The result must feel like a personalized gothic transformation of the supplied character, not a generic fantasy character placed into a scene.

Mandatory input: One character sheet.

Output: One polished, fully SFW gothic fantasy portrait.

If no character sheet is attached, do not generate anything. Request the character sheet instead.
