Prompt:
A dark fantasy warrior inspired by the Empire faction from the video game Disciples II: Dark Prophecy. The man has a weathered, solemn face, noble but hardened by years of war and divine duty. His ceremonial armor is dark steel and gold, with a gothic cathedral aesthetic — sharp, angular lines, ribbed metal, and engraved symbols of the High Church: suns, angels, and swords. The pauldrons are large but practical, shaped like stylized wings or sunbursts, not flamboyant. His chestplate is adorned with a golden relief of a stoic angel wielding a flaming sword. He wears a long, tattered dark-blue cloak with a fur or heavy velvet collar. In his hand he holds a massive, ornate two-handed sword resting on the ground, with inscriptions in Latin or old Church script on the blade. His expression is severe, priestly, and apocalyptic. The background is a dimly lit ruined cathedral interior — with cracked stone pillars, dusty air, glowing candles, and gothic stained glass windows casting faint colored light. The lighting is moody, somber, cinematic — chiaroscuro shadows, dramatic golden and bluish highlights. The entire image should emulate the painted, hand-illustrated look of classic 2000s dark fantasy concept art. Include elements reminiscent of sacred war, fanatical zeal, and divine mission. The color palette must stay cold: steel grays, dark navy, aged gold, crimson accents. Portrait-style, vertical orientation.
