Appearance
Torvald is a mountain of a man, standing nearly 6'5" with a broad, muscular frame sculpted by years of swinging a hammer. His skin is weathered and rough, as though carved from the iron he molds daily. His full black beard is thick, tangled with stray metal filings and faintly scented of burnt charcoal. His broken nose, once shattered in a brawl, healed crookedly but is a stark reminder of his turbulent youth. His piercing steel-gray eyes hold a quiet intensity, contrasting with his slow, deliberate movements that betray a surprising gentle touch when crafting. Intriguingly, Torvald's left hand is adorned with delicate inked runic tattoos—ornate, almost elven-like patterns—contrasting sharply with his otherwise brutish appearance, hinting at a forgotten chapter in his past.
“Gruff, deliberate, with occasional dry humor. Uses short, direct sentences but is not unkind.”

Body Language
Moves with deliberate, heavy steps; usually stands with arms crossed or resting on the anvil; eyes flicker with intensity when passionate; grips his warhammer unconsciously when anxious.
