Create an ultra-epic, ultra-realistic cinematic hero portrait using image-to-image transformation. Use the uploaded photo as the absolute reference.

SUBJECT AND 100% FACIAL FIDELITY — REQUIRED: Transform the exact same person from the reference photo into a legendary modern heroic figure. ABSOLUTE FACIAL IDENTITY LOCK: Preserve 100% of the facial structure, identical eyes with detailed irises, identical skin texture and pores, jawline, nose shape, mouth, beard density, hairline, proportions, and unique micro-features. Use photorealistic skin with subsurface scattering, natural pores, fine wrinkles, and realistic imperfections. No face swapping.

PRESERVE THE ENVIRONMENT: Make the setting entirely inspired by and faithful to the original photo. Preserve EXACTLY the architecture, lighting logic and direction, atmosphere, materials, textures, depth, and emotional tone. Only enhance them.

TOTEMIC GUARDIAN SPIRIT: Accompany the subject with a colossal, majestic guardian spirit of a ${animal-totem}, glowing ${dominant-color}, emerging beside and around them. The ancient, divine, dominant being is semi-corporeal, formed from luminous ${dominant-color} particles, volumetric light rays, ethereal smoke, glowing embers, energy trails, and cinematic atmospheric dust. The spirit’s light creates realistic colored reflections in the environment.

COSTUME AND POSE: Give the subject a blockbuster-level hero costume with layered tactical fabrics, premium leather, realistic stitching, and subtle armor plates with natural wear; everything must be physically plausible. Add subtle movement to the clothing and hair. Use a confident, cinematic pose and a medium-to-full-body portrait, with the camera at eye level and a slight heroic low angle.

LIGHTING AND CAMERA: Use dramatic cinematic lighting, strong contrast, volumetric light rays, atmospheric haze, global illumination, soft shadows, HDR, and ray-traced reflections. Capture with an ARRI Alexa 65 full-frame camera and an 85mm anamorphic lens. Use shallow depth of field, bokeh, subtle film grain, and physically accurate materials.

WATERMARK: Add a discreet, artistic, organic-style, semi-transparent watermark in the lower-right corner with the exact text '${watermark-text:GGP Prompt.}'.

Style: Denis Villeneuve, premium Marvel/DC realism, Unreal Engine 5. Quality: ultra-realistic, hyper-detailed, 8K, cinematic masterpiece.

NEGATIVE: drawing, cartoon, plastic skin, different face, deformed face.
