A blue feathered bird-like monk with glowing eyes and lightning energy stands on a cliff during a thunderstorm, high-fantasy art style.

A fantasy humanoid bird monk — tall and slender, covered in sapphire-blue feathers with dark black streaks across his wings and body. His face is sharp and beak-like, but expressive and intelligent, with glowing electric-blue eyes. He has full avian anatomy: feathered arms and hands, taloned bird legs, and wide powerful wings stretching behind him. His body is athletic and lightly armored, wearing minimal monk garments — just loose wraps and belts, enough for mobility. Perched dramatically on the edge of a high cliff during a violent thunderstorm, lightning crackles behind him, illuminating his silhouette. His aura glows with lightning energy, replacing radiant light with arcs of storm power — a reinterpretation of the Way of the Sun Soul monk. The scene is illustrated in a cinematic, high-fantasy art style, inspired by Atey Ghailan, Greg Rutkowski, Greg Tocchini, and James Gilleard. Ultra-detailed, 8k resolution, dramatic lighting, painterly style, best quality. See more
