-## Character design (from PFP)
+## Character design (ref-sheet canonical)

- **raincloud** — Small round purple dragon with big green slit eyes, pink cheek blushes, one claw raised to the mouth in a shy giggle with a single small fang; two main horns, side horns, tiny pink-tinged wings, segmented pale-yellow belly; dark blue starry night halo behind the head—cute mascot dragon host.
+**Reference:** `Assets/refs/` — full-body ref sheet + painted still + PFP crop. Use the ref sheet as primary; the PFP is a stylized crop.
+
+- **Species / sex / size:** Synthesized Dragon, male, **5 ft 11 in / 180 cm**. Adult anthro proportions—digitigrade, lean, not chibi. The round-cheeked PFP is a crop, not the canon silhouette.
+- **Base palette (from ref sheet):** base purple `#6b5388`, horns deep violet `#4a2299`, ear/inner-ear cream `#8d7776`, wing membrane magenta-violet `#6e2a80`, underbelly warm yellow `#e1c77e`, eyes green `#52904b`.
+- **Head:** **one pair of horns**—curving back, rising from above and behind the ears (no second pair; what might read as a second set in some angles is the ears themselves); **ears *a la* Bovidae** (cattle/goat/antelope — sideways-pointing, soft, leaf-shaped), cream-lined interior, seated below and in front of the horns; short muzzle; small fangs (one canonically protrudes over the lower lip when mouth is closed); big green eyes, **slit pupils in the flat cartoon style, rounder pupils in the painted render**—either read is canonical.
+- **Body:** segmented warm-yellow underbelly/chest plates running from throat through torso; purple base scales elsewhere; anthro hands with dark claws; digitigrade legs.
+- **Wings:** bat-style, magenta-violet membranes with darker purple fingers/leading edges. Adult-scaled (not the tiny PFP wings).
+- **Tail:** thick purple tail with a **single dorsal row of overlapping leaf-shaped scales** running straight down the top (one line only — think of the raised scute ridge on an alligator's back/tail, but a single row here). Each leaf-scale overlaps the next like roof tiles or pangolin plating, so at a glance it can read as a thick braid or fur part — it is **scales**, not braid, not fur. Tail ends in a leaf/spade-shaped tuft.
+- **What the PFP adds (stylized only):** pink cheek blushes and a dark-blue starry-night halo behind the head. These are **PFP/emote flavor**, not baseline on-model. For film, they are optional aura cues—use sparingly in cute close-ups, not as default set dressing.
+
+**Rendering note for BR:** play him faithful to the ref sheet (adult anthro, full wings, full tail). Reserve PFP-style exaggeration (halo, chibi proportions, cheek blushes) for emote-like inserts or stylized cutaways if at all.

 **On-screen portrayal — read exactly like the refs.**

- **Rain on screen is Raincloud the dragon**, portrayed identically to his established character design (purple mascot dragon, big green slit eyes, starry-night halo, the usual). Not a terminal, not a ghost in the wires, not a UI overlay. **The simulation is imagining bodies for everyone**, Rain included, and the simulation is *good*—nothing in staging, voice, lighting, or compositing should tip the audience off.
+- **Rain on screen is Raincloud the dragon**, portrayed to the full ref sheet (adult anthro, ~5'11", bat wings, yellow segmented underbelly, braided tail, double horn pairs, green eyes). Not a terminal, not a ghost in the wires, not a UI overlay. **The simulation is imagining bodies for everyone**, Rain included, and the simulation is *good*—nothing in staging, voice, lighting, or compositing should tip the audience off. PFP-only flavor (cheek blushes, starry halo) is optional aura, not baseline.
 - **The rest of the chorus also appears in their normal character-design forms** (Agate's winged chimera, Azure's femboy-Killer-Queen fit, Ubear's fez-and-cyber-arm forme, Rooster's beak-in-a-hood, etc.). The film reads as a literal gauntlet because, in its frame, it **is** one. The sim's job is to be convincing.
 - **Treat this profile's AIRainy / emulation / "source data" language as backstage notes.** Writers use it to calibrate psychology and motivation; it does not need to surface in dialogue or on camera. If a sim-revealing beat needs to land, save it for the sequel; in BR itself, play it straight.
