Create an image of an evil paladin in dark armor with a crimson trim. He has long flowing black hair and sinister red eyes glowing from within his helm. In one hand, he wields a large, fearsome sword with a black blade etched with glowing red runes. The other hand is outstretched as if commanding unseen dark forces. He stands atop a mound of bleached skulls, showcasing his victories against those who opposed him. The focus is on the paladin's menacing aura and the intricate details of his twisted sword and armor, set against the dark atmosphere of power and conquest. Please render this scene with an aura of palpable malevolence, ensuring an otherworldly quality that befits a high-fantasy setting. The overall atmosphere should be charged with the power of darkness and evoke a sense of dread and awe.
