+description: "A high-tech ninja assassin stands alone in a rain-soaked Neo-Tokyo alley at midnight — every surface neon-wet, every shadow deep enough to disappear into, every tool on her body designed to end things quietly."

+prompt:
+  scene: "A lone high-tech ninja warrior stands perfectly still in the centre of a narrow, rain-slicked street in futuristic Neo-Tokyo, late at night. Full-figure, wide shot. He is powerfully built, radiating controlled, coiled danger — clad in a form-fitting tactical suit of matte-black carbon fibre and graphene weave with armoured plating across the shoulders and chest, seamlessly integrated with stealth tech. A featureless visor helmet with a single horizontal red optical sensor conceals his face entirely. Retractable blade housings on both forearms, compact throwing-star slots along the thigh, a collapsed smart-bow across his back, a straight high-frequency blade sheathed at his hip. Both hands rest at his sides, loose, ready — the posture of a man who has already decided the outcome. Rain falls in heavy vertical sheets, bouncing off the wet tarmac around his feet, pooling neon reflections of pink, cyan, and amber signage in every puddle. He is the only still thing in a city of motion and light."
+  environment: "A narrow back-street canyon of Neo-Tokyo at maximum atmospheric density: walls plastered floor to roof in overlapping kanji advertisements and holographic shop signs, their light fractured and multiplied in every rain-wet surface. Steam vents billow from iron grates. Overhead, a tangle of power cables, paper lanterns, and delivery drone rails cross the gap between buildings. In the deep background, the glowing geometry of a mega-tower rises above the rooftops. The street is empty — no pedestrians, a single overturned vending machine glowing amber in the distance. A black unmarked van is parked at the far end, its engine running, exhaust rising in the rain."
+  style: "Hyper-realistic cyberpunk noir. Blade Runner 2049 colour science and rain-density meets Ghost in the Shell's tactical precision. Photorealistic wet-surface reflections — neon colour bleeding across every puddle and slick wall with caustic accuracy. Deep shadow with selective neon highlight: the red visor sensor as the sharpest point of light in the frame. Shallow depth of field — the assassin razor-sharp, the street dissolving into luminous bokeh behind. Rain rendered with physical density and motion blur. 8K resolution, photorealistic render, anamorphic lens, cinematic colour grade of deep teal shadows and magenta-pink neon highlights."
+  video: "The assassin stands motionless. Rain falls continuously. Neon reflections ripple in the puddles at his feet. His red visor sensor pulses once, scanning. The forearm blade housings extend silently by one centimetre, then retract. His head turns a few degrees toward the black van in the distance. Still. Camera holds static throughout."
