LOL...who is that?

[FredZarguna]

That is English actor Sean Bean, in character and costume, in his role as Eddard Stark, from the HBO adaptation of George R. R. Martin's Game of Thrones [think of an R/X rated version of The Lord of the Rings.]

The planet on which the story takes places has periods of long, mild years, with virtually no cold seasons except in the far North, but periodically long crippling winters occur. The House Stark and their vassals live in the North, and their motto is "Winter is Coming."

It's like a medieval version of the Boy Scout motto.
