* RatedMForManly: Ragnar. His [[EstablishingCharacterMoment introduction scene]] describes him as a 2 meters tall (6'6'' feet) muscle-bound {{Hunk}} of a man with facial scars and black warpaint dressed in a leather jacket and no shirt in freezing winter cold while listening to Scandinavian heavy metal. And then he hunts down a demonic beast and kills it with an overkill blow with a war axe while calling Odin's name. And that's not getting into his inner monologue about people of this era being too soft and trusting.
