So, I just reworked my character's lore (IE fleshed it out with Viper since she wanted to make a companion character and I loved her idea), and now I need a visual theme for him. He's supposed to be this enormous monster, and I would like for his appearance to contrast with his noble finery.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I think he should be some kind of big purple demon with skin that resembles armor, kind of like the Thing but his skin is like hardened on his chest to have a chest plate and on his arms so it gives him like gauntlets and shoulder pads. Very similar to the armor titan from AOT.
Thanos! Grape man

I would say that if you want him to contrast with his noble outfit, make him look haggard like a peasant, but that doesn't really work with the buff description you mentioned earlier.
He's gonna be dressed in finery, but I want him to be actually monstrous. You know, visibly a menacing beast as opposed to just a weird-looking guy.

What if there was some weird effect where you see two things like split vision whenever you look at him? Like one eye sees a burly Victorian man and the other sees a horrifying eldritch monstrosity

In the setting he is from, there is a profession called a Harvest Hunter. They go out into the world's most dangerous locations to gather ingredients for the rich and powerful. High-powered, genetically modified adventurers, basically. He was one of the first, and was also one of the strongest. He was born cursed, along with his twin sister. His twin sister used her incredible occult medical knowledge to keep him from losing himself physically and mentally to the monstrous curse broiling inside of him, while he protected her and enacted her will.
The two were a beloved and seemingly unstoppable duo, despite the sister being both incredibly weak and unable to age beyond 19.
Around 200 years ago, while on an expedition to the Gourmet Nightmare, an incredibly dangerous location built on human hopes and fears, the sister was kidnapped by a monster. Without her to save him from himself, the brother (which, as a reminder, is the character I'm working on) succumbed to his curse and sought her out until she managed to escape on her own. He has now returned to the material plane, horrifically mutated and perfectly adapted to the literal nightmare realm he had survived and thrived in for centuries.

Something like that. The idea is that he's basically lost his humanity and is trying to regain it, along with his honor.
I'm thinking Buttons', and decide that pretty much everything his job revolved around is gone now, given the whole "no water" and "apocalypse" things going on.

I should probably give out a bit of lore:

High-powered, genetically modified adventurers, basically. He was one of the first, and was also one of the strongest. He was born cursed, along with his twin sister.

Hmm now don't get me wrong, dryads are cool and all, but not very spooky...
What if he was like a dying rotting spooky dryad from the lack of water in the world? That might be interesting...
