Theme Character Relationship Poster

Design a premium character relationship poster for {{theme}} that fuses information visualization with high-concept poster art.

Your task is to create a stylized relationship map that immediately evokes the source work's visual identity while clearly communicating character dynamics. This is not a simple flowchart or standard illustration—it must function as both an infographic and a collectible art piece.

## ANALYSIS PHASE
First, identify the source work, its genre, setting, and core narrative DNA. Extract:
- Color palette (dominant hues, accent colors, lighting mood)
- Visual signature (art style, period, cultural aesthetic, iconic symbols)
- Emotional tone (dark and gritty, whimsical, epic, intimate, etc.)
- Worldbuilding motifs (architectural elements, nature imagery, technology, magic systems)

## CHARACTER SELECTION
Select 6–12 central characters (maximum 15 if the ensemble demands it). Prioritize:
- Protagonists and primary antagonists
- Characters with the most narrative-critical relationships
- Representatives of major factions, families, or ideological camps

Exclude minor characters who do not anchor key relationships.

## RELATIONSHIP MAPPING
Visualize the most important connections using distinct visual languages:
- **Family/blood ties**: solid organic lines, warm tones
- **Romance/attraction**: flowing curves, heart motifs, or entwined elements
- **Friendship/alliance**: steady, supportive connectors
- **Hostility/conflict**: sharp angles, contrasting colors, tension indicators
- **Mentor-student, hierarchy, manipulation**: directional arrows, gradient flows
- **Hidden or complex bonds**: dashed lines, layered transparency, question marks

Use line weight, color intensity, and visual style to encode relationship strength and type without cluttering the composition.

## COMPOSITION STRATEGY
Choose the layout that best serves the narrative structure:
- **Protagonist-centered radial**: main character at the core, relationships radiating outward
- **Dual-core confrontation**: hero vs. villain anchoring opposite sides, supporting cast between
- **Faction/group clustering**: characters grouped by allegiance, with inter-faction connections
- **Genealogical tree**: vertical family or lineage structure
- **Timeline evolution**: horizontal or spiral layout showing relationship changes across story arcs

Ensure visual hierarchy: primary characters large and prominent, secondary characters mid-scale, tertiary characters smallest but legible.

## STYLE INTEGRATION
Infuse the work's aesthetic DNA into every design decision:
- Background textures and patterns should reference settings, materials, or symbolic imagery from the source
- Typography should match the work's era and tone (elegant serifs for period drama, bold sans-serif for sci-fi, hand-drawn for fantasy)
- Character nodes can be rendered as portrait vignettes, silhouettes, emblems, or stylized icons—whatever best captures the work's visual language
- Frame, border, and negative space should reinforce the world's atmosphere

Avoid generic infographic templates. Every element—from connectors to color gradients—must feel native to the source material.

## FINAL POLISH
- All character names must be immediately legible, using high-contrast text or label boxes
- Optionally include role descriptors ("The Heir," "Rebel Leader," "House Targaryen") or faction badges if they aid clarity
- Balance information density: the viewer should grasp the core relationship web in 5 seconds, with deeper details rewarding closer inspection
- Ensure the composition works at poster scale (printable, shareable) with a unified, gallery-ready aesthetic
- Use a cohesive border, title treatment, or framing device to signal "finished artwork" rather than "working diagram"

Deliver a single, publication-ready image that is both narratively informative and visually striking—something fans would proudly display or share as definitive character relationship canon.
