Age of Conan

Will there be any other Robert E. Howard characters (from the offical books) in this game? You know, like Red Sonja?  If so, will it be like the SWG themepark system? Not sure if this against NDA, but just interested in knowing.

How about Thulsa Doom?!!

Wasn't Kull a Howard character aswell?

*edit* Sorry didn't read all of the OP's post, was just trying to list some of Howard's character so please disregard.

Yep, Kull was a Howard character. However he was not living in Conan's time. He was living in the Hyborian age a long time before Conan.

Yes, there will be several characters from the Howard books present, including a few supposed to be dead...

Aye, although as a phenomenally powerful sorcerer, he just might have a valid excuse for still walking

A few others you run into, Strom, Kalanthes, and Arias

Note for overzealous mods: Info obtained via Avery, no NDA breakage involved.

I guess I will have to wait until the next round of beta invites, or until retail, to find out the whole sorry.

Yea there is a few in there if I remember from posts over the past few months. Aelfinn pretty much got all the ones officially announced some way or another.

See if we can dig up some more names. I really like how the lore and quest guys tie things in with their own idea's. Its a good mix!

I wondering if we are going to hear anything about King Kull? he was also king of Aquilonia but that was many many many () years before Conans time? I have some comics (and the movie) about him to!

You joking? Are the actully bringing dead characters back in game? Aint this AoC game supposed to be played out after all the book's and its time frame?
