Necromancer Pixel Art Comparison

Create a dark fantasy pixel art character comparison on a wide horizontal canvas with a charcoal black background and a subtle dark gray border. Show two complete full-body necromancer portraits side-by-side: the left is a softer, pixelated/blended pixel version, while the right is a pixelated version with sharper outlines, stronger black borders, and more pronounced blocky edges. Both characters depict the same necromancer: a skeletal necromancer wearing tattered robes and a hood, wielding a twisted wooden staff tipped with blue ghostly flames. The left character's face is blurred and dark beneath the hood, while the right character reveals a skeletal face with hollow eye sockets and exposed teeth. The characters are dressed in dark {argument name="robe color" default="Midnight Blue and Soft Purple"} The characters wear hooded robes with tattered hems, layered sleeves, torn and trailing strips of fabric, bone breastplates, rope and leather belts, hanging gold ornaments, a central oval blue gem, small pouches, and bare skeletal hands and feet. Each character holds a twisted staff in their left hand; each staff is topped with a blue flame surrounded by twisted branches and adorned with hanging pendants and beaded decorations. Each character's right hand is raised in a casting gesture, fingers spread. The design utilizes a limited pixel art palette, high-contrast edge shadows, soft brown wood, ivory white bone details, deep navy blue folds, and luminous electric blue flame highlights. The two characters are kept in almost identical poses, vertically centered, with the left character slightly softer and more painterly, while the right character has a sharper pixelated look. There is no text, labels, watermarks, or additional characters; there is no background landscape except for a solid dark background.
