The Conan franchise tells the story of Conan the Cimmerian, a barbarian warrior who seized the throne of Aquilonia (Location) during the Hyborean Age.

Created by writer Robert E. Howard in the early 1930s, Conan has gone on to encompass short stories, novels, comic books, films, as well as video games. The universe is heavily tied to Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos (Concept) due to the frequent collaborations between the two authors, with the continent of Hyboriaplaced around modern day Greenland (Location) in mythos stories.
