## Prompt

```text
Create a vertical 2:3 medieval fantasy illustration in a gritty painterly watercolor-and-ink style, set in {setting}. The main subject is {character_name}, a rugged adult man with {hair_color}, wearing a loose dirty off-white linen shirt with rolled sleeves, dark trousers, a leather belt with pouch and dangling keys, brown bracers, and tall worn lace-up boots. Show him full body in the center, lunging forward dynamically from right to left, thrusting a long wooden practice spear toward a partially visible opponent in the extreme left foreground while holding a round wooden buckler shield on his left arm; his face should be anonymized by a plain soft rectangular blur. The opponent is cropped at the left edge, wearing padded armor and holding a wooden staff or spear, with only part of the torso, arm, and weapon visible. The yard is dusty, sunlit, and crowded with training activity: include exactly 11 visible people total, counted as 1 central trainee, 1 cropped foreground opponent, 1 kneeling resting fighter at lower left, 1 small crouching assistant beside him, 2 sparring men in the left background, 1 blonde observer with shield near center-left, 1 blue-robed or blue-armored instructor standing with folded arms on the right, 1 child or young trainee standing near him with a blurred face, 1 partial figure at the far right edge with a blurred face, and 1 distant background trainee near the gate. Behind them, draw high tan-gray stone fortress walls with crenellations, a tall watchtower on the left, a large arched wooden gate at center-right, heraldic blue banners with gold lion emblems, canvas shade awnings, weapon racks filled with spears and shields on the right, and drifting dust and wood splinters catching the light. Use warm late-morning sunlight, blue sky with soft clouds, detailed stone texture, earthy browns and desaturated blues, cinematic perspective, dynamic motion, realistic anatomy, no modern objects. Add a small elegant handwritten date and signature in the bottom-right corner reading {date_text} and {signature}.
