Cartoon Paladin in a Mountain Cave

A cartoon-style paladin stands heroically in a rugged mountain cave. The knight wears polished silver plate armor with gold trim, a blue tabard bearing a white cross, and a glowing rune-etched sword at their hip. A round shield with a sun emblem hangs on their back. The paladin has a big, cheerful grin and oversized eyes, with bold cartoon outlines and vibrant colors. Warm torchlight flickers on damp stone, stalactites hang from the ceiling, and moss clings to the walls. Cel-shaded shading with strong shadows and amber highlights gives a bright, friendly look. Perspective is a dynamic 3/4 view from slightly below to emphasize heroic presence. In the background, distant cavern passages fade into soft blues and purples, with magical motes drifting around the paladin.
