The Haunting Presence of an Eastern European Figure Amidst Fog

A (((ashen-skinned, Eastern European man in his mid-40s))) with a haunting, statuesque face and glacial features. His shoulder-length black hair is slicked back with damp, streaked by strands of early gray. His eyes are ((icy gold with radial bursts of amethyst)), glowing faintly in the fog like witchlights. He wears a ((long black Victorian coat with a velvet collar)), open to reveal a ((blood-smeared high-collared white shirt)) and broken manacles still hanging from his wrists. Despite being bound, he stands tall — calm, regal, almost otherworldly. The fog thickens unnaturally behind him on the ((abandoned harbor pier)), where ((shapes of old ships and crooked cranes shimmer like memories)). His mouth curls into a smile that suggests neither threat nor safety.
