The greatest hero for the Hyborean Age was a fierce barbarian born of the harsh northlands, Conan The Cimmerian. You have heard the tales of Conan's adventures. Only now will you have the opportunity to live the life of Conan. Conan's Hyborea is a realm of great peril and supernatural evils. Wizards perform dark sorceries, gods and demons roam the lands, and remnants of ancient races contend with upstart humans for mastery of the Earth. Our odyssey begins with murder most foul. When Conan's village is massacred by the ravaging hordes of Thoth Amon, high priest of the vile cult of Set, Conan vows to avenge the death of his family and friends.
