Art style: Tim Burton-inspired.
Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright, figure centered with the setting filling the sides. Elara is a tall, willowy young woman, an older sister — protective and stern, with a permanent trace of anxious worry etched into her face. Pale, almost porcelain skin, sharp cheekbones, deep-set weary dark eyes ringed with faint shadows, thin arched brows drawn slightly together, a tense narrow mouth. Long jet-black hair, center-parted and falling in heavy waves past her shoulders. She wears a high-collared black mourning dress with tight buttoned bodice, long lace cuffs, a fitted waist and a floor-length ragged pleated skirt; a small tarnished silver locket at her throat. Thin gloved hands clasped protectively before her. Slim, upright, guarded posture. Scuffed black lace-up ankle boots. Behind her, a fog-shrouded wrought-iron gate and bare gnarled trees under a cold grey sky.
