N'gora was a very minor character in the story, "Queen of the Black Coast", but played a bigger part in Marvel's story arc depicting those three years of Conan's life.  N'gora is a barbarian from the Black Kingdoms and fought his way to become one of Belit's subchiefs.  He went insane after encountering The Winged One and attacked Conan.  Conan defended himself and killed the subchief.

Combat
Particularly skilled in battling with a Nyatui shield and assagai, he gains a racial +2 bonus to his AC when armed with these two pieces of armament.
Robert E. Howard's story, "Queen of the Black Coast," was first published in Weird Tales in May of 1934.  The story can also be found in the Ace/Lancer paperback "Conan of Cimmeria"; the Donald M. Grant Limited Edition "Queen of the Black Coast", and the Gnome Press collection "The Coming of Conan".  All of these are out of print, but usually available on eBay.

Currently in print is the British volume "The Conan Chronicles Volume I : The People of the Black Circle" which is part of Millennium's "Fantasy Masterworks" series.  ISBN: 1-85798-996-1.  It is available off of Amazon.com

To the left is the cover of that issue of Weird Tales, featuring an unlikely Conan protecting Bêlit with a rather feeble looking knife.  The artist was Margaret Brundage.
