## Identity and Facial Preservation
Use the uploaded person's photograph as the primary facial identity reference. Preserve their recognizable facial features, natural skin tone, apparent age, facial structure, eye shape and color, eyebrows, nose, lips, cheekbones, jawline, and distinctive characteristics. Maintain authentic facial proportions, realistic skin texture, and natural masculine or feminine characteristics. Do not de-age, excessively beautify, reshape, or replace the person's face with a generic model. Adapt facial hair, hairstyle, physique, and costume naturally while maintaining strong facial resemblance.

## Style and Atmosphere
Create an ultra-photorealistic cinematic dark fantasy portrait inspired by mysterious medieval forest guardians, Gothic folklore, ancient raven mythology, and premium Hollywood fantasy photography. The subject appears as an enigmatic hooded raven guardian, mysterious sorcerer, or legendary woodland protector. The atmosphere is haunting, powerful, mystical, brooding, elegant, and intensely cinematic. Use deep charcoal blacks, weathered midnight blue, graphite gray, muted forest browns, antique gold, and subtle autumn amber highlights.

## Composition and Pose
Create a vertical 4:5 portrait featuring one adult subject standing centrally in a mysterious autumn forest. Frame from the top of the pointed hood to approximately the upper thighs, showing the face, shoulders, chest, elaborate cloak, raven, and clasped hands. Maintain a perfectly centered, symmetrical composition with the subject facing directly toward the camera. The shoulders are square, posture upright, and expression serious, calm, commanding, and intensely mysterious.

Position both hands naturally clasped together at lower chest or waist level, displaying realistic fingers, knuckles, veins, and skin texture. Place a magnificent large black raven prominently across the subject's left forearm, appearing on the viewer's left side of the composition. The raven faces toward the viewer's right with its head angled slightly downward. Its body overlaps the chest and forearms, creating a powerful foreground focal point.

## Hood and Costume
Dress the subject in an elaborate medieval Gothic raven-inspired costume. Feature an oversized pointed charcoal-black hood made from thick, heavily weathered woven fabric with pronounced seams, rough fibers, intricate wrinkles, and subtle aged textures. The hood extends forward, casting deep dramatic shadows around the forehead and eyes while leaving the face clearly recognizable.

Create a luxurious black cloak with layered, overlapping raven feathers covering both shoulders and extending down the torso. Each feather must display individually defined barbs, layered edges, subtle iridescence, glossy highlights, and natural variations in shape.

Beneath the cloak, feature intricately embossed black leather armor or a medieval tunic with delicate antique-gold filigree, ornamental embroidery, weathered stitching, and subtle geometric patterns. Add a beautifully crafted antique bronze or tarnished-gold ceremonial pendant with a Gothic cross-like design centered on the chest. Include richly decorated cuffs with intricate metallic embroidery and elaborate medieval ornamental motifs.

## Raven Details
Render an exceptionally realistic common raven with anatomically correct proportions, intelligent glossy black eyes, a powerful curved dark beak, and dense layered plumage. Emphasize individually visible feathers, fine neck hackles, subtle blue-black iridescence, realistic claws, and delicate natural feather reflections. The bird rests calmly and confidently against the subject, reinforcing their mysterious bond.

## Facial Details and Expression
Capture piercing, expressive eyes looking directly into the lens beneath the shadowed hood. Maintain realistic facial anatomy, detailed pores, subtle skin imperfections, natural facial hair when appropriate, fine eyelashes, and authentic skin coloration. Use carefully controlled highlights across the bridge of the nose, cheekbones, lips, and jawline. The expression should convey quiet authority, wisdom, secrecy, and supernatural confidence without exaggeration.

## Background and Environment
Place the subject in a softly blurred, ancient woodland during late autumn. Feature tall dark tree trunks, distant woodland shadows, scattered golden-brown fallen leaves, damp forest earth, and subtle drifting autumn foliage. The background should suggest a quiet, mysterious forest filled with ancient secrets. Use beautiful cinematic background compression and creamy bokeh, keeping all attention on the subject and raven.

## Lighting and Photography
Use soft, diffused overcast daylight filtering through the forest canopy. Illuminate the face gently from the front and slightly above, preserving rich shadows beneath the hood. Add delicate silvery highlights along the raven's feathers, textured cloak, and embroidered clothing. Maintain deep cinematic blacks without crushing important details.

Shoot at eye level using an 85mm full-frame portrait lens, approximately f/1.8 to f/2.2, ISO 200, 1/250-second shutter speed. Use a shallow depth of field with critically sharp focus on the subject's eyes, face, and raven's head. Maintain realistic lens compression, subtle natural vignetting, controlled contrast, refined cinematic color grading, and professional editorial sharpness.

## Quality and Realism
Create ultra-photorealistic 8K-quality detail, realistic anatomy, authentic facial identity, naturally proportioned hands, exceptionally detailed feathers, physically accurate fabric textures, fine metallic reflections, lifelike skin microtexture, dimensional lighting, and seamless environmental integration. No illustration, painting, CGI appearance, cartoon styling, plastic skin, distorted hands, extra fingers, malformed bird anatomy, excessive sharpening, text, or watermarks.
