Art style: Ghibli / Anime-inspired.
Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright and centered — a haughty Sasanian Persian commander of the 5th century, leader of the elite Immortals corps. A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late forties, olive-brown skin, a proud angular face with a long straight nose, dark hooded eyes and heavy arched brows. Black hair falls in oiled ringlets to his shoulders, and a full, meticulously curled beard is banded with gold thread. He wears a tall fluted silver-gilt helmet crowned with a small spike, a lamellar iron cuirass over a crimson silk tunic embroidered with golden winged-disc motifs, layered scale shoulder guards, a jeweled belt, and loose deep-blue trousers tucked into embossed leather riding boots. A curved sword hangs at his hip; one gauntleted hand rests on the pommel. Chin lifted in cold arrogance. Behind him, a dusty golden battlefield plain at dawn, spear ranks and a war-elephant silhouette far off.
