Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright — a tall, unnaturally elongated cloaked figure, silhouette stretched like a thin shadow pulled too long across a wall. It wears a floor-length black cloak of light-devouring fabric, matte and void-dark, its folds swallowing all reflection so no detail catches the eye; a deep hood drapes low, hiding the face in flat impenetrable darkness with no visible features. The frame is gaunt and skeletal beneath the drapery, shoulders narrow and high. One long arm reaches forward, a slender black-gloved hand with elongated fingers extended toward a cradle. The hem pools into tar-like shadow at the floor, feet unseen beneath it. Setting: the corner of a dim child's nursery at night, a wooden crib nearby, pale moonlight, faint threads of smoky dark mist curling around the figure. Looming, predatory, silent menace.
