 Still interested in finding a GM to run a game in Conan's Hyboria, It can either be solo or small party.

 Thank you.

I have an adventure set in that world about 50 years after Conan vanished.

Appointment in Zamora starts out along the Road of Kings. The PC's are hired as caravan guards headed east towards Agraphur. Here's the invitation I created at Yahoo groups:

Fighters! Fighters wanted!” The caller was an older man dressed in the robes of a desert nomad with a fine scimitar at his belt and the gleam of gold on his fingers and the glitter of jewels in his ears.

You, lad, you look like a strong young fellow. How about signing on with me? I've a caravan headed out tomorrow, going east along the Road of Kings. We'll travel through Corinthia and Zamora, and then on to Agrhapur on the shores of the Inland Sea. You'll see the sights. Come home with a pocket full of gold coins and stories to tell your grand children."

The old man looked tough enough, but the huge warrior who strode along a pace or two behind him with skin as black as coal looked as if he could take on a squadron or troopers single handedly with a fair chance of winning the bout. The bodyguard scowled at anyone who came within a pace or two of his charge, and if the trespasser should miss the warning somehow, the Shemite extended a thick knobby club to push him away.

No, no, Jubal!” cried the old man. “This heroic fellow is going to sign up with us, aren't you young man? I'll pay you ten gold lions right now, and fifty more when we arrive in Agrhrapur.

He lifted a leather purse that jingled with the dull tone of heavy coins.

Are you a fighter? Or a ranger? Perhaps a barbarian?” He looked the young man over carefully.

OOC: I'm putting together a caravan to travel along the Road of Kings in Hyboria. This is the age of Conan the Barbarian. We will be using the Pathfinder Core Rulebook as the bible, and all Player Characters will start out at Level 1. The primary opening I have is for guards, who must be Fighters, Rangers or Barbarians. I will accept passengers and merchants, willing to pay their way for protection on the open road, but they must have a solid back story, and the means to pay. Even these characters are restricted to Level 1, and I will accept no magic users of any kind. No wizards, no sorcerers, no clerics, no druids, no bards. No magic users of any kind. This is the world of Robert Howard and magic is very thin on the ground, and really nasty when you come across it. (Think Call of Cthulhu magic.)

One more stricture: Only humans need apply. The world of Conan has no demi-humans. No elves, no dwarves, no halflings, no gnomes, no orcs.

Weapons & Armor

Keep it simple. These are the items you will have ready access to:

Knives, axes, spears, self-bows, slings, leather armor (boiled or studded), hide armor

These items will cost two to three times their price in the Player's Guide:

Swords, chain mail, crossbows


If you can stand all the No's, I think I can offer you a good story and many adventures.

Im a conan lover as well!

Though I feel the story works best as a hero and sidekick, not a party of equals.

I'm willing to be the sidekick.

Conan the Barbarian, Hyborian Kingdoms.

After a couple of year hiatus I am reviving a Conan adventure based in Messantia. Two of my players expressed an interest in picking it back up, but I need a couple of more to continue. I've been watching this thread for some time. I respect your perseverance in finding a Conan game, and have a soft spot for Conan fans.

I run this game using the GURPS 4th edition ruleset but use Mongoose Conan for inspiration and resources. I'm doing my best to preserve the tropes that make the Hyborean Age unique, like sword and sorcery, noble savage, and magic is evil among others.

Feel free to come check it out. If you are unfamiliar with GURPS, no fret, I can assist.

Hhmmm, I would love a Conan game, but I am unfamiliar with Gurps 4th ed.  I might check into this.
