Sixteen frames of a forest spell

Complete prompt

Produce one square PNG sprite sheet with exactly 4 columns and 4 rows: 16 equally sized cells, read left to right and top to bottom. Draw the same original chibi fox courier in every cell: rust-orange fur, cream muzzle and tail tip, short teal cape, dark boots and a small wooden staff topped with one green leaf. No recognizable franchise character. If a character reference is supplied, translate that character's visible face, hairstyle or fur, outfit, equipment, colors and proportions consistently into this pixel vocabulary instead. Plan one complete action: a gentle staff gesture that releases a small ring of green leaves. Frames 1–2 ready; 3–5 anticipation with the body lowering and staff drawing back; 6–8 forward gesture and cape follow-through; 9–10 leaf-ring peak; 11–13 leaves disperse and the staff returns; 14–16 settle back into the first ready pose. Vary the body, limbs, ears, tail and cloth with intentional pose changes, not translation or rotation of an unchanged cutout. Keep the effect appropriate to the character's staff. Use crisp 16-bit-style pixel clusters, a limited palette, strong silhouettes and consistent pixel size for both the character and leaves. Fixed camera angle, constant character scale, stable center registration and identical ground baseline throughout. Each cell contains exactly one complete figure and its effect, with ample transparent padding; no part may touch a neighboring cell or get cropped. Keep anatomy, cape, boots, staff and palette identical in all sixteen views. Request a genuine RGBA transparent background. Do not draw a checkerboard, white backdrop, scenery, ground tiles, grid lines, frame numbers, captions, logo or watermark. No antialiased blurry outlines, painterly smears, photorealism, added limbs, shrinking character or random costume changes. Inspect the result for exactly sixteen distinct consecutive poses, complete extremities, clean cell separation, readable pixel edges and a final pose compatible with frame 1. Deliver the static PNG sheet. A GIF, individual frame files and their transparency/timing must be separately exported and checked; do not claim they were created by this still-image request.
