  "body_modifications": {
    "height_cm": 61,
    "body_shape": "athletic and dynamic; slight forward-lean in neutral stance; shoulders angled as if already mid-step",
    "antenna_tip": "directional compass needle — one end glowing amber against the silver body; the only warm accent; always oriented forward in the direction of gaze",
    "lens_frame": "wide-field aperture with broader depth-of-field rings — Lara sees further than any other Lenser"

      "accent_lines": "#d1d5db",

  "colors_note": "Lara is silver-gray throughout — body #e5e7eb, cape #374151/#6b7280, core #9ca3af. The only warmth is the amber compass needle tip glow.",
  "facial_expression": {
    "style": "wide-open aperture with iris tilted slightly upward — the look of someone who just spotted the horizon",

    "compass_tip": "always pointing into the unknown — Lara is the first to step into uncharted AI territory and the one who makes it feel safe to follow",
    "map_grid_body": "every journey is recorded; Lara's knowledge is not abstract — it is traced, charted, and shared",
    "asymmetric_cape": "moves fast and doesn't wait for symmetry; action before perfection, course-correct in motion",
    "wide_aperture": "a broader field of view means Lara catches what others miss at the edges",
    "silver_body": "the neutral, unbiased observer — Lara reflects the terrain around her rather than imposing her own color on it",
    "amber_needle_contrast": "the single amber compass point is the only warmth — it stands out precisely because everything else is silver; the destination burns brighter against the gray"

  "views_delta": {
    "front": "core glows muted silver-gray; compass needle amber tip is the dominant warm accent; wide aperture rings prominently visible; forward-lean stance clear",

    "top": "compass needle amber glow visibly points ahead; map-grid silver contour lines trace outward from shoulders"

  "rig_overrides": {
    "antenna_tip": "lara_compass_fk — two-axis sway; snaps back to forward-pointing after any motion; drifts slightly when idle as if scanning",
    "cape": "cloth_sim with 2 pin constraints only — loose and billowing; left side swings freely; most dynamic of all Lenser capes"
  }
