Photorealistic portrait, full frame, cinematic. A Roman gladiator,
30s, Mediterranean features, short dark hair, strong jaw, weathered skin
with minor battle scars. He holds a wooden training sword (rudis) at his
side, grip relaxed but ready. Wearing a simple white subligaculum
(loincloth) and leather arm wrapping on his sword arm. Muscular but not
exaggerated — a real athlete, not a superhero. Expression: calm, focused,
quiet confidence. Background: blurred warm stone wall of a gladiatorial
school courtyard, soft afternoon sun from the left casting natural shadows
across his face. Shallow depth of field, subject sharp. Shot like a sports
portrait editorial. 8K, dramatic natural lighting, no text, no CGI glow,
no fantasy elements, no costume-party look.
