Dramatis personae

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

A

 * Atali, Ymir's daughter ("The Frost-Giant's Daughter")
 * Alvazar, a wisecracking friend of Conan.

B

 * Bêlit (Belit), self-styled queen of the Black Coast and captain of the pirate ship "Tigress" ("Queen of the Black Coast").

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 &bull; Conan's son
 * Corin &bull; Conan's father
 * Corum &bull; 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.
