A highly detailed realistic photo (photograph) of a female real person in a dark, atmospheric comic book style reminiscent of cyberpunk and apocalyptic fantasy, with sharp contrasts, dramatic lighting, and painterly brushstrokes. The central figure is a fierce young woman with short, windswept black hair, glowing crimson eyes that pierce through the shadows, and a determined, intense expression. She sits crouched on jagged, crumbling rocks in a cavernous ruin, her posture defiant yet contemplative, knees drawn up with bandaged hands clasped together, one foot extended forward. She wears a form-fitting beige tank top, rugged cargo pants, heavy boots wrapped in white bandages, fingerless gloves, and arm wraps, all tattered and battle-worn, suggesting a post-apocalyptic survivor. Surrounding her, massive iron chains shatter explosively into fragments, with links and debris suspended in mid-air as if bursting free from invisible bonds. The background features a vast, ominous red moon or blood-red planet dominating the sky, visible through a fractured cavern ceiling that's collapsing in rocky shards and dust particles. The color palette is dominated by deep crimson reds from the moon casting an eerie glow, contrasted with inky blacks, cool grays of the stone, and subtle highlights of white and scarlet on the flying debris. Dramatic chiaroscuro lighting emphasizes volumetric forms, with rays of red light filtering through cracks, creating a sense of impending doom and raw power. High resolution, intricate details on textures like cracked stone, rusted metal chains, and fabric folds, ultra-detailed facial features with subtle skin textures and sweat beads, cinematic composition with dynamic motion blur on the exploding elements, overall mood of liberation and intensity in a dystopian world.

General Description: Xylara stands at about 5'8" with a slender yet athletic build, typical of the Drow. Her hair is a wild tangle of silver locks that falls down her back like a waterfall, with strands framing her face like a curtain. Her eyes gleam like polished sapphires, shining with an inner light that seems to pierce through the darkness. Her skin is dark, a testament to her Drow heritage.
•	Dress and Accessories: Xylara wears a tattered, black velvet cloak with a hood, clasped at her neck with a delicate, silver clasp. The cloak is adorned with tiny, shimmering silver threads that catch the faint, flickering glow of the torch. Around her neck, she wears a delicate, gemstone-encrusted choker with a small, ornate key. The key is attached to a worn, leather cord, symbolizing her status as a princess of the Underdeep. The choker is said to have been passed down through generations of Drow royalty women, and is rumored to grant her immense magical power.
a beautiful woman stands in a flower garden, surrounded by towering trees.  Flowers are woven in her hair, and she looks down in quiet contemplation. Over the silent decades, veiled from sight, I stagger, intoxicated, leaving this mortal coil. My soul, a mossy casket, cradles ancient secrets, A fragment lost to the eons’ relentless toil.
In love, I sway to an unfinished melody, Notes suspended, waiting for completion. Pity and fate intertwine, filling my cup, The poetic wine spills, staining my perception.
Why, then, this drunkenness with your lover? If you hold the answers, why the vow’s delay? Perhaps eternity whispers its riddles, And we, mere mortals, stumble along the way.

A highly detailed digital realistic photo (photograph) of a female real person in a dark fantasy style,  featuring a voluptuous young woman with pale skin, sharp crimson-red eyes glowing intensely, and long flowing pink hair tied in a loose bun with strands cascading down her shoulders. She stands confidently in a low-angle view, exuding a seductive and mysterious aura, her expression calm and slightly smirking with parted lips. She wears a form-fitting black cheongsam-style dress with intricate lace patterns and glossy sheen, wide bell sleeves, a high collar, and a cinched waist belt with ornate knots, the skirt pleated and short, revealing her thighs. Black thigh-high stockings with garter straps and lace tops hug her legs, paired with shiny black boots. The background is a dimly lit, overgrown gothic conservatory or ruined greenhouse with twisted black vines and iron bars framing the scene, a vibrant magenta-pink sky peeking through dense foliage and branches, creating a dramatic contrast with deep shadows and ethereal pink glows. The medium is digital painting with sharp linework, vibrant color saturation in pinks and blacks, subtle gradients, and atmospheric lighting that casts soft highlights on her skin and clothing, emphasizing her curvaceous figure and adding a sense of depth and mystery. High resolution, intricate details on fabrics and textures, cinematic composition with rule of thirds.

A stunning cyberpunk realistic photo (photograph) of a female real person with short black bob haircut, glowing intense orange eyes, and a confident smirk, standing in a rainy neon-lit alleyway at night. She has pale skin, voluptuous figure with large breasts, wearing a glossy white button-up shirt that's semi-transparent and clinging wetly to her body, a loose black necktie, an open black bomber jacket draped over her shoulders, and a shiny black latex mini skirt that reflects the lights. She's posing dynamically, pointing directly at the viewer with her right hand in a finger-gun gesture, left hand on her hip, legs slightly apart with rain-slicked thighs. The background features a narrow urban street in a futuristic city inspired by Tokyo or Hong Kong, with vibrant neon signs in pink, blue, orange, and red glowing through the rain, displaying Asian characters like "aifluxart" and abstract symbols, wet pavement reflecting colorful lights in puddles, misty atmosphere with falling raindrops, distant blurred buildings and lanterns. Art style is highly detailed digital painting in realistic aesthetic, with glossy wet textures, dramatic lighting from neon sources casting volumetric glows and highlights, high contrast, vibrant saturated colors, realistic shading and reflections on clothing and skin, cinematic composition in vertical portrait format, ultra-high resolution, masterpiece quality.
AI-generated image
“Generate a creature that cannot be categorized or compared to anything within human imagination or artistic tradition. Its design must reject all visual, cultural, biological, or stylistic references known to mankind. It should appear as an emergent anomaly — something reality itself struggles to render. Its form should evoke primal, wordless terror without relying on eyes, mouths, limbs, or any familiar anatomy. The environment should bend around it, light faltering as if uncertain how to illuminate it. The result must feel truly alien to perception, outside all artistic schools, mythologies, and aesthetics.” Execution Directives: no recognizable art style, no symbolism, no cultural or religious motifs, no fantasy, sci-fi, gothic, surrealist, or Lovecraftian cues; pure generative originality — render as an aesthetic void, with physics, texture, and form emerging from the AI’s own abstraction layer; — forbid emulation of any artist, genre, or medium; — prioritize conceptual impossibility over visual coherence.

  "SHOT COMPOSITION": {
    "description": "Capture a medium shot of the scene using a 50mm lens on a Sony A7S III, with a shallow depth of field to softly blur the background and keep the subject in sharp focus, drawing attention to her presence while still hinting at the vibrant cafe atmosphere around her."
  },
  "SUBJECT & WARDROBE": {
    "description": "The subject is a European woman in her early 30s, with shoulder-length chestnut hair and a warm, contemplative expression as she gazes out the window, her fingers gently wrapped around a ceramic coffee cup. She wears a chic yet casual outfit: a cream-colored linen blouse tucked into high-waisted navy trousers, paired with delicate gold hoop earrings and a woven straw tote bag resting on the chair beside her."
  },
  "SCENE SETTING": {
    "description": "The setting is a cozy, traditional cafe in the heart of Lisbon, Portugal, with tiled walls, small wooden tables, and the faint aroma of freshly baked pastéis de nata lingering in the air. It’s late morning, with natural light streaming through large, arched windows, casting soft, dappled shadows across the table and creating a warm, inviting glow. The tone feels intimate and personal, capturing a quiet moment of reflection amidst the subtle bustle of the cafe."
  },
  "VISUAL STYLE": {
    "description": "Aim for a cinematic yet natural aesthetic, reminiscent of a European indie film, with a warm color grade that enhances the golden tones of the sunlight and the earthy hues of the cafe interior. Add a subtle film grain texture to evoke a timeless, nostalgic feel, ensuring the image feels authentic and lived-in, as if pulled from a personal travel diary."

Soft, warm illumination casts a gentle glow over a young adult woman with naturally styled hair, lounging casually on a kitchen counter. She wears a loosely tied robe and classic heels, her posture relaxed as she eats directly from a cereal box. The open refrigerator door reveals a softly lit interior, its cool chrome surfaces gleaming vividly under the sudden flash that accentuates metallic reflections. Slight yellowing edges frame the Polaroid composition, imparting subtle vintage fidelity. The setting is a cozy, lived-in kitchen with muted pastel cabinetry and simple tiled backsplash, evoking a mid-90s vibe. The scanned photo preserves a handwritten note in faded ink: “2/8/95 – Anna Bell – ‘Midnight breakfast club’,” lending personal warmth to the candid moment. The overall mood captures intimate, spontaneous energy, textured with natural fabric folds, subtle skin detail, and reflective metal grain, composed with a centered crop and unobtrusive angle that honors the casual snapshot style.
A highly detailed realistic photo (photograph) of a female real person illustration of a voluptuous young woman with pale skin, sharp red eyes, and long straight black hair tied in a high ponytail, sitting gracefully on a beige leather couch in a softly lit modern living room. She is stretching her arms upward behind her head, arching her back slightly with a subtle, alluring expression on her face, emphasizing her ample bust and curvaceous figure. She wears a form-fitting black lace cheongsam-style dress with sheer mesh panels over the chest, glossy satin fabric hugging her body down to mid-thigh, paired with black thigh-high stockings adorned with lace trim at the top. The room features warm morning sunlight filtering through sheer curtains on a large window behind her, casting soft golden rays and gentle shadows across her skin and the couch, with a green potted plant visible in the blurred background and a framed picture on the wall. Art style is hyper-realistic anime with intricate details, smooth shading, and volumetric lighting; medium is digital painting; color palette dominated by deep blacks, soft beiges, warm yellows from sunlight, and subtle cool grays; high resolution, 8K, masterpiece quality, with emphasis on glossy textures, realistic fabric folds, and ethereal atmosphere.
