**High texture quality portrait of a crafty and unpredictable ruler in a fantasy novel. Ammanas, also known as Shadowthrone, is depicted as a shorter figure often obscured by a hood and emanating Shadow. He leans on a gleaming silver cane topped with a hound's head pommel, which sometimes appears solid, other times ethereal. His polished haematite eyes seem to glow from beneath the hood. His form wavers between a blurry smudge of shadows and a solid figure, adding an element of constant mystery. His long, spindly fingers suggest dexterity and precision. The image captures the essence of his reed-thin voice with a Dal Honese accent, often filled with manic laughter, giggles, and hissing tones.** - <@744236163899850854> (fast)
