The following characters have prominent or recurring roles in the Conan series.

A

C

  • Prince Conan II, called Conn, firstborn son of King Conan of Aquilonia by his wife Zenobia. (Conn is a creation of L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter. " Witch of the Mists ", " Black Sphinx of Nebthu ", " Red Moon of Zembabwei ", " Shadows in the Skull ", Conan of the Isles as well as the Conan the King comic-books.)
  • Conobar • Conan's son
  • Corin • Conan's father
  • Corum • Conan's paternal grandfather
  • Ctesphon. The king of Stygia is mentioned only in " The Phoenix on the Sword " This is, however, enough to deduce that he is a priest-king, like Thugra Khotan of the Stygian daughter-kingdom of Kutchemes and arguably lord of the priests of darkness and dark mages in the west.¨Note that when priestmage Orastes resurrects Xaltotun in The Hour of the Dragon with an incantation to Skelos, old when Atlantis was young, he wears an ermine-brimmed cloak, historically a traditional royal attribute. Thoth-Amon is, without his ring, rather pathetic and no doubt highly overrated. Ctesphon could be seen as the great shadow always looming in the background.

D

  • Drogin • Conan's maternal grandfather

E

  • Epimitreus • Sage that oft advises Conan in his dreams

F

  • Fafnir Demonhand (comics only)

G

H
