Description
A Vandal king with the imposing presence of a warrior-ruler. He wears leather armor reinforced with metal plates beneath a cloak of deep red or purple, befitting his royal status. His long dark hair and full beard reflect the Germanic royal fashion of his era. His build is broad and powerful, marked by the scars of battle that speak to his role as both king and military leader.
