I got the inspiration to draw this after watching an anime called Log Horizon, which is about people getting trapped inside a video game (and it's MUCH MUCH better than SAO btw), and during my.... "watchthrough?" I started to think how I would want to look like in a video game and what my abilities would have, and this is what I came up with. The design is highly affected by ancient Finnish culture and his powers are insipired by Sami witchcraft and the mythos of epic Finnish poetry called Kalevala :D
He is a "Noaidi" (wizard) who has the abilities to heal and repel spirits by playing his instrument called Kantele, and cast curses by playing a witch drum.
