Strong rule: style --- 2D vector animation, clean lines, cinematic lighting, high contrast, adult animation style, vibrant but moody color palette, 4K. ---. A close-up of a wall of monitors all flashing bright red with the text 'Override Failed' and 'Access Denied'. Elias is in the foreground, his face illuminated by the harsh red light, frantic and desperate as he types on a holographic keyboard. The atmosphere is chaotic, tense, and panicked.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Elias: A sharp-featured man in his early 30s with intense, calculating dark eyes and short-cropped obsidian hair. He possesses a lean, athletic build and wears a high-collar, charcoal-grey minimalist tech-suit. His expression is one of cold, analytical detachment. The setting is a sterile, high-tech penthouse overlooking a sprawling neon metropolis at dusk. The lighting is high-contrast, with cool blue ambient light and sharp white rim lighting. 2D vector animation style with clean, bold lines and sophisticated shading, emphasizing a sense of power and isolation. Vibrant but moody palette.
