Output video specs: 7.79 seconds, 4:3 aspect ratio, 1980s 2D cel-shaded cartoon style (thick black outlines, flat color blocks, slightly grainy texture). Same pacing, camera moves, scene structure, and actions as the original Mock_my_power.mp4 — only the character visuals are replaced.

MASTER PROMPT (single block — paste the whole thing to Grok)

Generate a 7.79-second, 4:3 aspect ratio, 2D cel-shaded 1980s retro cartoon-style video of an anthropomorphic black cat mage, using the attached character reference sheet as the visual model for every frame. The video has 5 continuous camera reframes within a single take (no cuts). The character is from the reference sheet: black fur, purple glowing eyes (no pupils), cream and red robes, gold dove pendant, tassel hanging from robes, purple magical flames in the paws. Background: darkened magical space (not pure black) with purple ambient glow that comes from the paw flames. Motion is very subtle — mostly stillness with small deliberate movements. Art style: thick black outlines, flat cel-shaded color blocks, slightly grainy texture. Match the original video's energy exactly.

SCENE 1 — Opening Frontal ECU (0:00 – ~1.6s)

Static frontal extreme close-up, eye-level, centered on the cat's face. Purple eyes stare piercingly at camera — large, glowing, no distinct pupils. Black fur around face, whiskers visible. Gold dove pendant at chest/neck. Cream and red robes at bottom edge. One paw with faint purple flames barely visible at edge, mostly still, barely glowing. Dramatic front light on face with shadows under brow. Faint purple ambient from the barely-glowing paw flames. Dark magical space background (not pure black) with faintest purple ambient. Eyes hold stare, muzzle has tiniest barely perceptible shift, nothing else moves. Sinister magical imposing watchful mood.

SCENE 2 — Tighter ECU, Eyes + Paw Glow (~1.6s – ~3.1s)

Slightly tighter or marginally lower angle — eyes now dominate more of frame. Purple eyes pulse slowly brighter then dimmer over ~2-3 seconds. One paw with purple flames more visible at lower edge — flames flicker gently, small purple tongues of light, casting purple ambient onto fur around eyes. Gold dove pendant more prominent. Cream/red robes mostly out of frame. Background darker than Scene 1, purple glow from flames is main non-face light. Face still lit from front. Eyes pulse, flames flicker gently, face holds stare with tiny shifts. Ominous magical supernatural menacing mood.

SCENE 3 — Paw Flame Action Moment (~3.1s – ~4.1s)

Slightly reframed downward toward the paw — flames now the brightest element in frame. Purple magical flames burst fully from paw — stylized magical energy (not realistic fire), purple energy tendrils/arcs with glowing highlights, cel-shaded flat purple tones with thick black outlines. Black fur of paw/leg at base of flames. Cat's purple eyes visible upper portion, staring down intently. Gold dove pendant higher in frame. Cream and red robes on body, strongly lit by purple flame glow — fabric folds show purple ambient shadowing. Tassel hanging from robes, catching purple light. Background very dark but lit by purple flame glow spilling outward. Face still lit from front. Flames flicker actively (most dynamic moment), eyes hold focused stare, tiny body shifts as mage channels magic. Dynamic magical powerful active mood — the mage is casting.

SCENE 4 — Wider / Back View Transition (~4.1s – ~4.7s)

Slightly wider framing — transition to wider shot showing more of full body. Black cat seen from behind or wider front/side mage posture, full body visible, standing upright. Black fur on back of head and body. Cream and red robes fully visible in full drape — rich fabric folds, cel-shaded flat tones with thick black outlines. Purple flames still active at paws (held at sides or trailing slightly downward), slightly less intense than Scene 3 peak, casting purple ambient onto robes. Gold dove pendant at back of neck (back view) or chest (front view). Tassel hanging from robes. Very subtle cel-shaded arcane circle or magical residue on ground — barely visible, low opacity, purple-tinted. Background dark magical space slightly more visible than Scenes 1-3. Lighting slightly darker and moodier — red channel reduced, muted tones. Flames still active but settling, robes settle/flow slightly, cat holds still mage posture. Transitional magical presence power building anticipation mood.

SCENE 5 — Return to Frontal ECU, Hold the Stare (~4.7s – end)

Static frontal extreme close-up, identical framing to Scene 1. Purple eyes stare piercingly, full intensity (returned to Scene 1 brightness). Black fur around face. Gold dove pendant at chest. One paw with faint purple flames at very edge — still active but dim, magic lingers, flicker very subtle. Cream and red robes at bottom. Tassel visible. Background darkened magical space with faint purple ambient (same as Scene 1). Dramatic front light on face, faint purple ambient from lingering paw flames (dimmer than Scene 3 peak). Eyes hold intense stare to the end — this is the long held moment. Purple flames flicker very subtly, still active but barely. Muzzle has tiniest barely perceptible shifts. Nothing else moves. Video ends on this stare — no cut away, no resolution. Sinister magical unresolved tension mood.
