| Conan rises to the rank of captain in the Turanian
service. His growing repute as an irrestible fighter and a
good man in a tight spot, instead of leading to soft jobs with large pay
for little work, causes King Yildiz's generals to choose him for
particularly hazardous missions. Combat Conan's fighting style has gained his well known deadliness at this period of time. His combat reflexes give him quite the advantage in mass battles, with up to four attacks of opportunity as soldiers pass through his threat zone. His Great Cleave skill allows him to further wade through lesser warriors, crushing them left and right. Rage: Once per day, Conan can go into a rage and increase his Strength and Constitution by +4, and gains a +2 morale bonus to Will saves. He suffers a -2 penalty to AC. Fast movement: Conan's speed is increased by +10 feet when wearing no armor, light armor, and shields. Sneak Attack: Canan strikes a vital spot for extra damage whenever he catches an opponent flat footed or when he flanks an opponent. Evasion: If exposed to an effect that allows a Reflex save for half damage Conan takes no damage if that save is successful. Uncanny Dodge: Conan retains his dexterity bonus to his AC even when caught flatfooted or surprised. He can sense danger before it even becomes apparent. |

| Note: Again, we have another non-Canonical story. Again, I moved him up a level in Fighter. According to the chronology I am using, he is still in the military. Of course, using a different chronology might result in a different choice at this point. I do think this chronology, using the military background for Conan's use of tactics later, works pretty good, which is why I went with it. Anyway, I am moving him up in fighter at this point. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The City of Skulls" was written by L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter. Purists may want to ignore those stories, but even Howard agreed that Conan spent a few years (three or four) in mercenary service, so I feel granting him a level here is still warranted. I rather liked this story, so I have included it with my version of Conan. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
