poster-v1's rendering plus the art-direction layer that sits ABOVE the style block: a shot-type list applied as a hard filter, effect-first framing (illustrate the consequence or the item, not a character performing it) and the restraint rule (one focal point, everything else collapses to flat fields). This is the default pack for new work.

Style block
Appended last to every prompt this pack composes, character for character. Changing it means publishing a new pack, never editing this one.
flat color screen-print poster illustration, limited palette of 3-4 flat spot-color inks on a warm cream paper tone, single saturated flat background field, bold graphic shapes, visible ink texture and subtle halftone grain, energetic gestural linework with sketchy unfinished edges and ink splatter, dramatic negative space, figure rim-lit or in partial silhouette, thin concentric ring and radial line accents behind the subject, conceptual editorial poster composition, matte, no gradients, no glossy digital painting, no photorealism, no text, no lettering, no border, no frame, no watermark
Composition order
The composer assembles the final prompt in this order, top to bottom. The style block is always last, and always verbatim — that placement is the whole reason a pack is immutable.
Overlayyou supply this
Palette and motif, substituted into the pack template.
inks: {palette}; motif: {motif} (vary the motif's size and placement, do not stamp it identically)
Art direction
Fixed by the pack. Sits above the style block.
Illustrate the effect, the consequence or the item — never a character performing the action.
↳ Art direction
Fixed by the pack. Sits above the style block.
One focal point only: spend the whole detail budget there and collapse everything else to a flat color field, a repeating pattern or bare texture. No second subject, no rendered sky, no full scene.
↳ Art direction
Fixed by the pack. Sits above the style block.
Off-center and diagonal by default; crop boldly, the subject may exit the frame. Centered symmetric composition is reserved for icon and object shots.
Shot clauseconditional
One of 7 shots from the pack's list, chosen per image.
Subjectyou supply this
What you typed, after the guard rules have run over it.
Guard clausesconditional
Appended by whichever guard rules matched your subject. Never appended twice.
Safe zoneconditional
Added for card-shaped sizes; omitted for square token art.
Composition: keep the subject and all critical elements within the central 80 percent of the frame on both axes; all four outer edges (about 15 percent in from each side) are crop-safe margin with nothing important in them.
Style block
The pack itself. Always last, always verbatim, and it ends in the suffix below.
flat color screen-print poster illustration, limited palette of 3-4 flat spot-color inks on a warm cream paper tone, single saturated flat background field, bold graphic shapes, visible ink texture and subtle halftone grain, energetic gestural linework with sketchy unfinished edges and ink splatter, dramatic negative space, figure rim-lit or in partial silhouette, thin concentric ring and radial line accents behind the subject, conceptual editorial poster composition, matte, no gradients, no glossy digital painting, no photorealism, no text, no lettering, no border, no frame, no watermark
Suffix
The mandatory tail. The composer re-appends it if anything has displaced it.
no text, no lettering, no border, no frame, no watermark
Guard rules
Quirk countermeasures, learned from real runs and carried as pack data rather than code. Each one exists because a specific thing went wrong; the reason is part of the pack.

Why it exists
proper-nouns
proper-noun guard
every prompt
Proper nouns leak into the image as painted lettering. Describe characters and objects by appearance only.
Every model tested loves adding an ornate frame to card-art prompts even with the no-frame clause; the belt-and-suspenders answer is this clause plus the 7.5 percent edge crop.

"The character performs the action" is the number-one failure mode — it reads as fan art. Pick a shot type that shows the effect, the consequence or the item instead.

What it is
hero
30%
A deck character as focal subject — but varied: from behind, hooded, cropped at the shoulder, silhouetted, or small in frame. Full-frontal centered: at most one card per deck.
object
15%
The prop as protagonist — the weapon, the emblem, the tool, the mask. The icon-card slot.
hands
15%
Hands only (or paws, or root-fists), mid-action.
victim
15%
Effect-on-target / victim POV — the attack aimed at the viewer, the opponent reeling.
environment
10%
A place, with a tiny figure or none at all.
metaphor
10%
Pure metaphor — the effect with nobody performing it.
multiply
5%
The character repeated three or four times, for clone / repeat / swarm effects.
