Use the uploaded reference image as the ONLY source of identity. Preserve the person's identity with maximum fidelity. Maintain exactly the same facial structure, facial proportions, hairstyle, skin tone, body proportions, expression, and every unique identifying characteristic. The uploaded reference image permanently defines the person's appearance. Do not regenerate, reinterpret, beautify, stylize, modify, or invent any facial or body feature. Only recreate the scene described below. A full-body shot of a young man with dark hair styled in a relaxed parting, wearing a black long-sleeved polo shirt, dark trousers, and white sneakers. He stands center-frame with a subtle, confident smirk, holding one hand out toward the camera with open fingers. Rising directly behind him is a gigantic, monstrous entity composed entirely of swirling, chaotic black smoke and dark energy. The shadow monster has massive clawed hands framing the scene and two intensely bright, glowing white eyes that pierce through the darkness. The entire background is filled with turbulent, atmospheric dark gray clouds and smoky tendrils, creating a dark fantasy cinematic look. The lighting is low-key and dramatic, casting sharp highlights on the man's face and clothes while emphasizing the textures of the smoke monster. NEGATIVE PROMPT: identity drift, face alteration, hair alteration, skin tone changes, body proportion changes, facial asymmetry, deformed anatomy, extra fingers, missing fingers, crossed eyes, incorrect gaze, bad hands, bad teeth, blurry face, plastic skin, AI artifacts, watermarks, text, logos, duplicate people, low quality, compression artifacts, oversaturation, overprocessing, incorrect lighting, poor composition, cropping errors, colorful background, smiling warmly, cheerful atmosphere.
