Elara

Create an internal identity-discovery study of Elara; do not present provisional traits as canonical.

Contract state

adaptive primary pendingplanned · not generated

Observable story moment

Generate a consequence—not a decorative portrait.

After choosing one road, Elara buries seven small path tokens and makes room to mourn the lives they will no longer become.

Identity boundary

Hold evidence. Expose uncertainty.

A chooser who lets unrealized paths become absent; transformation expressed by consequence, not costume changes.

Evidence: locked name gate domain creator proposed behavior physical identity open
Variation: This is an identity-discovery study, not an identity master. The following variables are deliberately provisional and may be explored without being treated as canon: embodiment type and apparent age; facial structure, skin tone, hair, body proportions, and gender expression; garment architecture, maintained objects, and material culture; scale relative to people, architecture, and the bonded Godbeast; cultural or geographic visual language, if any. Only source-defined traits, role or Gate relation, evidence objects, relationship, and story beat may not drift; every variable named as open above must remain visibly provisional.
Composition: 4:5 vertical field portrait, full silhouette readable, one foreground evidence object, generous negative space for a future dossier caption outside the image.
Output geometry: 1 × 4:5
Intended surface: guardian dossier and identity atlas
Delivery role: comparative Guardian visual identity discovery plate
Crop safety: Protect the complete subject silhouette, hands or countable limbs, and decisive evidence object from edge loss; no alternate crop is authorized by this contract.
Generated text: no generated text
Light: Motivated directional light plus one localized Arcanean working signal; preserve skin, material, and atmospheric truth.

Canon review records every accepted physical trait before an identity-master contract is issued
Rights and qualified cultural-origin review are required before using a human reference or culturally specific visual language

Render-system hypothesis

Adaptive mode pending

ADAPTIVE_STYLE_PRIMARY_PENDING_AFTER_ROUND_01

Direction: ADAPTIVE_STYLE_PRIMARY_PENDING_AFTER_ROUND_01
Color law: 70% ecological/material neutral, 20% identity family, 8% active phenomenon, 2% relational accent.
Escalation: resonant: one localized impossible behavior; environment remains physically legible
Material law: Tactile, specific materials with wear, weight, construction, and local environmental response.
Image typography: No text, letters, logos, watermarks, borders, captions, or pseudo-glyphs inside the generated image.

Visible acceptance conditions

grayscale silhouette remains identifiable
face, hands, limbs, countable anatomy, age, and body proportions remain coherent
visible phenomenon serves one story law
adult premium editorial finish; no mascot energy
provisional physical choices remain visibly reviewable and must never be described as locked canon
Gate 8: Starweave; domain: Perspective and transformation
Choice must read through one committed path and seven material absences—not multiverse clones, costume transformations, cosmic portals, or reversible spectacle.
divine authority reads through choice and relation, not ornamental rank
physical embodiment remains provisional; this is not a canonical portrait or identity master

Visual exclusions

generic fantasy concept art
rainbow galaxy effects
permanent flame crystal or waterfall hair
franchise or living-artist style imitation
appropriated sacred clothing symbols gestures or shrine architecture
illegible pseudo-text
sexualized or childlike treatment
color as the only identity signal

Deterministic verification

Authority boundary

A prompt contract cannot authorize itself.

This page exposes the engine-neutral design record. It is not an execution grant, provider receipt, identity approval, canon decision, or publication credential.

Release eligibility: internal only until identity lock
Rights state: internal draft source review required
Pass threshold: 42 / 50
Human approval: Required after independent review.

The JSON matches the strict public prompt-contract schema. Provider adapters may shorten it for image execution, but may not erase its evidence, verification, or governance boundary.
