Cinematic portrait of a young Nordic warrior, 27 years old, with platinum-blonde hair tied in a low ponytail, sharp blue eyes with a hint of amber, pale skin, high cheekbones, strong jawline, several battle scars — one across left eyebrow, one near right temple. Wearing a simple dark sweater and leather jacket with fur collar, sitting by a fireplace, holding a lute, with two cats (a Siamese and a Scottish Fold) nearby. Realistic style, soft lighting, warm atmosphere, Nordic cabin interior, runes carved into wooden beams. Intricate details, 8k, photorealistic, cinematic lighting, moody, Viking-inspired fantasy.
