2026-06-04 Website Portrait Placeholders

PRE-LOCK / OFF-CANON — this batch predates the active 2026-06-17 comic-book / cel-ink lock. There is no separate hi-fi/website track — website portraits use the locked comic medium too. Kept for history; these placeholder plates are slated for regeneration in the comic style.

Scope

• Fill all missing character and bestiary card placeholders on deadrot.com.
• Keep existing runtime sprites in place where they already exist.
• Use draft portrait plates for website cards and dossier pages, not final gameplay sprites.

Shared Prompt Rules

• Square website portrait plate, single centered subject, generous padding.
• Clean comic-book / cel-shaded ink in the locked Style-Bible house style, with heavy-metal album-cover grime expressed through bold contour lines, flat readable value blocks, and DOOM palette discipline.
• Near-black #0a0a0a void background, hard hellfire rim-light, blood-hot falloff, crushed shadows.
• Warm DOOM grade: blood, hellfire, rust, gunmetal, coal, and bone.
• Toxic green appears only on Scourge breach cores and parasite nodes.
• No readable text, logos, UI frames, smooth 3D render, photorealism, painted concept art, anime, cyberpunk neon, magenta/cyan, or cool blue/teal grade.

Notes

• Outputs were resized/padded to 768x768, then converted to WebP with cwebp.
• apps/web/lib/content/index.ts resolves spriteBase entries through package-backed /assets URLs.
• One rejected Pyre Courier output drifted into pixel art on a magenta background; it was replaced before integration.
