It was her destiny to follow in her father's footsteps, a great hunter and warrior who brought honour to their family. The tales of the great Norn who killed the greatest and most terrifying beats, the Norn who saved many villages and innocent people were told at every fireplace in the Shiverpeaks and even beyond. But not every hero survives long enough to tell his stories himself. Her father died on a dangerous mission, killed by a winged beast that no one has seen ever since.
From that day on she swore to find this creature to take revenge on her father's death. It was a hard decision and her family refused to let her go, they were afraid of losing another family member and the only daughter of the lost hero but no one was ever able to convince her to stay.
So she left her hometown, left everyone she knew behind to end what her old man once started. Now she travels through the Shiverpeaks, on her way up north, knowing little about the enemy she needs to face. During her journey she killed many creatures, saved many lives and tried to be as honourable as your father once was. Maybe one day her victorious tales will be told.

I wanted to upload my warrior a long time ago, unfortunately I was a little bit bored by her old look so I took this as a chance and made several changes and came up with this look here!
The Barbaric Helm is one of my all time favourite headpieces so I wanted to create something around this piece though it wasn't as easy as I thought it would be.
I wanted to create a sort of "Dragonhunter" look only without dragons. I had an idea that she is on a quest and that quest gives her no choice but killing dangerous animals that would eat her alive if she wouldn't. I wanted to create an armour that might be made out of several animal pieces so that their deaths weren't for nothing and she could have an extra strong armour and that's why I basically went for the different scale pieces.
The colourscheme had to be a more natural one and after I reworked a nice combo between grey, brown and a little dash of Lead I found out that this colours are basically similar to the Ice Drake's scales which was awesome for me :D
I chose the weapons basically to match the colours and as a honourable warrior she needed some weapons that would look as honourable except for the longbow, this one had to match the gloves.
At the end I was very happy with the result and I hope that you enjoy this look as much as I do! :3

Yay, there she is!
I really really love this look! It is a mixture between simple/realistic and exciting themed look and this is what I love about it
You managed to mix more basic parts like the shoulders and the top piece with some standout pieces like the helmet and the gloves
Especially the helmet is one of my absolute favourite pieces in game and while I still struggle to find an appropiate look with it, you managed to knock this one out of the park!
The dyes are natural and totally look like armour! This has to be one of the most convincing realistic looks I ever saw
I am in love with every single screen; it was also a great idea to pick a few without the helmet, because her blonde hair really gets her this strong viking vibe, which plays off nicely with the rest of the look
She sure didnĀ“t need to hunt for this gold really hard!

I love the idea of her making her armour of the beasts she defeated! Even your bow fits this theme!!!
Usually i dislike the dragonhunter gloves because it looks like its just tied to the wrist ... but with your story it makes perfect sense! It looks like an awesome trophy :D
The subtle dyes look fantastic and you made cool hunting screens!
I have no choice but to give Gold ;)

I love it !
It's more than a basic norn look to me ! The fact that you used this helmet, those gloves and those boots make it even more special.
The shoulders/chest/legs combo is very well found and add a more realistic/traditionnal touch to your look. Especially with those beautiful and natural dyes ! And also the weapons !
Talking about weapons, the longbow go so well with your gloves, and really reflect your story, that she had to kill dangerous creatures to survive and made those trophies usefull by reinforcing her armor, and using them as weapons !
Amazing story and screens as always ! This look deserves nothing else than GOLD ! :-)

So lore-friendly! :)
As you may know, I really love simple and natural looks. The armor fits perfect for a warrior. I'm in love with this helmet, I use it for my warrior too xD
The dyes of the metal are great and the blue-greenish dyes add nice accents. Weapons are great too, even howler doesn't look too fancy here.
I really hope she can accomplish her mission :)
Take my gold!

I love the combination of the different scale textures and that there's even some scales on the weapons.
