I'm still thinking on the character, I'm currently reading the relevant books as I was mostly unfamiliar with the system.As for the setting, I didn't know much so I'm getting up to speed, I figured there are some links to Call of Cthulhu and Lovecraft (apparently the author took inspiration from Lovecraft)
If I recall correctly, R.E.H and Lovecraft were pen pals and wrote back and forth often. So there's some of Cthulhu in Conan's dark corners, and some of Conan in Lovecraft's various writings too... In the extras for the 2001 version of Conan the Barbarian with Jason Momoa there is a fantastic extra clip that goes into the history of Howard, and the whole Conan thing. Worth a watch if can find it. :)
