Description
A person stands against a plain background wearing a costume that includes a horned helmet, dark armor, and a long cloak. One hand holds a sword pointed downwards, while the other supports a large shield decorated with metal studs and dark material. A light source creates a distinct shadow of the person and the horned helmet against the wall.
