Cavern Necromancer: A Photorealistic Dark Ritual

Photorealistic depiction of a necromancer in a damp, shadowy cave. A hooded, gaunt figure stands over a stone altar littered with bones and rune-carved skulls. Torchlight flickers, casting warm amber highlights on wet rock and the pale skin of the necromancer. They raise a gnarled staff etched with sigils; necrotic energy swirls around their gloved hands in a pale blue-green glow. In the shadows, skeletal minions watch as mist coils along the cave floor, stalactites drip, and moss clings to the walls. The scene uses cinematic lighting with high dynamic range, ultra-detailed textures on skin, cloth, bone, and stone, and a shallow depth of field that focuses on the figure while the background fades to soft bokeh. Color palette blends cool blues and grays with warm torchlight accents; 8K realism, hyper-realistic pores, fabric weave, and bone textures.
