## Prompt

```text
Create a dramatic black-and-white studio portrait collage of {character_name} shown in exactly 5 vertical panels, each panel separated by a thin glowing white divider line. Canvas is horizontal 4:3, dark charcoal-to-black background, high-contrast monochrome lighting, sharp editorial fashion photography, realistic skin texture, short dark styled hair, light stubble, black crew-neck shirt, tight head-and-shoulders crop. Layout: five equal narrow slices across the frame, all showing the same face from slightly different angles and expressions. Count and depict exactly 5 expressions from left to right: 1) intense stern glare with furrowed brow, 2) warm closed-mouth smile, 3) broad joyful laugh with teeth visible and eyes squinting, 4) thoughtful skeptical look gazing upward-left with one hand on chin, 5) calm neutral direct stare. Use moody side lighting, deep shadows, glossy highlights in the hair, cinematic contrast, subtle film grain, no text, no watermark, no extra people, no color.
```
