A formidable figure strides forward through a snowy landscape, adorned in intricate Viking-inspired attire. The man's long, braided hair and beard catch the wintry wind. His garments, a mix of leather and fur, feature ornate patterns and clasps. A textured cloak drapes over his shoulders, while a sheathed axe is visible on his back. His intense, determined expression is set against a backdrop of dark, stormy skies with snowflakes gently drifting down, creating a stark contrast to the icy ground beneath his boots.
