[Subject] A close-up anime portrait of a young elf-like male character with pale skin, sharp crimson-red eyes, narrow serious gaze, and long silver-white hair styled in a messy high ponytail with loose windswept strands across the forehead and face. He has pointed elf ears, fine angular facial features, and a black sigil-like tattoo or magical mark centered on the forehead. A dangling silver cross earring hangs from one ear. His expression is cold, focused, and emotionally guarded.

[Environment] Abstract fantasy background rather than a literal room or landscape. The backdrop is a layered crimson-magenta cosmic haze with dark shadows, smoky gradients, and subtle particle flecks, giving the portrait a demonic or arcane aura. The lower foreground includes dark purple-black mist or magical smoke wrapping around the character's shoulders and chest.

[Composition/Camera] Vertical anime portrait in 3:4 ratio, framed tightly from upper chest to top of head. Face dominates the center of the frame, slightly angled, with eyes positioned just above midline for an intense confrontation. Hair fills the upper edges with dynamic strands reaching outward. Background remains soft and atmospheric so the face, eyes, tattoo, and hair silhouette stay dominant. This should feel like a premium anime character poster or high-end fan-art close-up.

[Lighting] Stylized anime rim-and-fill lighting with cool highlights on the silver hair and soft magenta-red environmental bounce from the background. Shadows are graphic and cel-shaded, especially along the jaw, nose, and cloak folds. Eyes should glow subtly through saturated red irises. The lighting should create contrast without making the portrait muddy.

[Style/Rendering] High-detail anime illustration, not photorealistic, not 3D CGI. Clean line art, polished cel shading, rich crimson-purple palette, smooth skin rendering, and hair strands drawn with sharp layered highlights. The overall style should feel like a dramatic fantasy anime key visual: elegant, intense, slightly gothic, and emotionally restrained.

[Detail constraints] Keep exactly one character. Preserve the silver ponytail, pointed elf ears, crimson eyes, black forehead sigil, cross earring, and dark purple cloak or high collar. Do not add weapons, extra characters, full body framing, or busy scenery. Keep the portrait intimate and face-driven.

Delta prompt strategy:
1. If the hair loses volume: add "messy silver high ponytail with loose windswept bangs and layered strands framing the face".
2. If the eyes lose intensity: add "sharp crimson-red anime eyes with a cold focused stare".
3. If the ears become human: add "clearly pointed elf ears visible beneath the hair".
4. If the sigil disappears: add "black arcane symbol centered on the forehead".
5. If the background becomes generic: add "crimson-magenta cosmic haze with dark purple smoke and subtle particles".
6. If the portrait gets too wide: add "tight upper-chest anime close-up focused on face and hair silhouette".
7. If the line art softens too much: add "clean refined anime line art with crisp cel-shaded shadows".
8. If the cloak is lost: add "dark purple-black cloak or high collar wrapping the lower frame".
9. If the earring disappears: add "silver cross earring hanging from one ear".
10. If the mood becomes friendly: add "serious stoic gothic-fantasy anime mood, emotionally restrained".
