Thorgest's Shield is a large, circular Viking shield with a sturdy wooden base, reinforced with a metal rim for durability. The front is adorned with intricate Norse carvings depicting scenes of battle and mythology, painted in deep blues and earthy reds against a weathered brown wood background. The shield's surface shows signs of battle, with scratches and dents that tell tales of past conflicts, while the back features leather straps for a firm grip, aged to show use over time.
