The character comes through as a woodland barbarian-type of man. It's obviously his name giving me this idea and I have already read you took the name from the Old Norse. It's a pronouncing we still very much use in similar ways here up in northern Europe. "Skog" is infact the Swedish word for "forest or woodland", while "skogar" is the plural form.
A cherry on top of a great set

I always like to find my own first name but don't mind borrowing the last name in this case.
Main is not black and why - just the style of the preset and the bright white of the area ... and it being dawn so less color visible. It is also low color preset on top of that.
I like zpthem all
He is looking great though and indeed,.. mildly unsettling,.. I like that robe from im also,.. has a great lore friendly touch to it,..
Skogr is an idea I am toying with. The only other characters that still hold my interest are Kavel (who would be more to finish his story as I told Kayol), and Wolf (both to finish his story and because he is a favorite from FO4 as well). The Thistle King is more just for fun and not a serious character, even if Fenrir is ... but I do not want to play as Fenrir as Fenrir is who I follow, my god if I were to pick one, so could never play him. Fyrulf is fun but I have tried a few times and it never seems to last, same with Marrok. So Skogr, Wolf, or Kavel it most likely will be.
The robe I saw Dicky using and had to try it - love how much detail is on it. Very good textures from Gamwhich.
Grim was supposed to take over Fenrir's role after he freed his father (end of book 3). He got sidetracked (book 4) but finally did. Then Azura stole his divine soul and at the end of that he decided he was not ready to be the Guardian so Fenrir held onto it. Finally, in the last story, Hati and Skoll appeared to contest the position. In the end Grim granted the power to them.
So Fenrir is off being retired. Grim, Erik, and Wolfgar continue to work with the Black Wolf Company and the Thieves Guild to protect Nirn from the Thalmor and the forces of Molag Bal.
I have tried a few other characters since then - Marrok, Wolf, Kavel, Fenn (aka Fenrir himself) without much luck. I need someone not tied to Grim's lore directly I think. So that may be Skogr Wolf-Grin. Will see. He will still serve Fenrir, all my characters do in all worlds/games, but consider this a different timeline (or dragon break in the lore of TES).
If he doesn't work then most likely will return to playing Fenn, Wolf, or Kavel. For now Skogr is a WIP.
My darkest character in Skyrim is Kavel Bloodmoon. I wrote him explicitly to explore writing dark, tragic, sad stories. I did his first 4 chapters which covered his parents and birth. He is a dark sort. I would really like to finish his story someday as I have it all planned out - how he grew up, childhood issues with the Lord of Falkreath, lots of anst and tragic things go on in his life with his first wife, later is best friend and potential partner before they broke apart in a bitter fight, near suicide, his hero worship of Hircine, and so on. I might return to him.
But no real going back. I miss those days but community is different as am I. I don't have the energy/time/motivation to spend 40+ hours on one story (which is how long many of my epic Grim ones took when adding in screen shot work and posing, writing and proofing, and putting it all together)/. That being said I think if I did return to write something really in-depth it would be Kavel Bloodmoon. I really love his darker story and I have the entire story plotted out - it is a matter of writing it and sharing it.
For now, however, it is short stories that I can handle without getting OCD about finishing and wiping myself out in the process. Skogr Wolf-Grin might have some. His wolf name (the name the wolves gave him) is "he-who-grins-in-the-forest" and Skogr means forest. Hence his human name which I thought sounded very norse like. I can't take full credit as I saw Wolf-Grin used in Pillars of Eternity and liked it so much I knew I had to use it as a surname for a character.
I wanted Skogr (which means forest in old Norse) to have a cold winter look with pale skin, light grey hair, and startling eyes (purple) or cold eyes (light grey). Still undecided with the eyes.
