A sharp-featured elf with wiry musculature and piercing yellow eyes, wearing slightly mismatched but elegant clothing that hints at a noble background--loose tunic in deep crimson with gold embroidery, a leather vest reinforced with small steel plates, and dark trousers tucked into scuffed leather boots. His outfit is subtly altered for practicality: a finely crafted longbow slung across his back, a quiver of black-feathered arrows at his side, and a concealed dagger strapped to his thigh. He has a hooded cloak in muted greens and browns, frayed at the edges, giving him an air of a traveler or adventurer. His stance is wary and poised, ready to spring into action, and his hands hover near his weapons. A small token on a cord--an unpolished shard of metal--rests against his chest. The setting suggests a bustling city street at dusk, with dim lanterns casting long shadows. – cinematic, realistic textures, high fantasy, dramatic lighting
