Everything about Conan The Adventurer Animated Series totally explained

Conan the Adventurer was the name of a popular American animated television series adaptation of the literary and comic book character, Conan the Barbarian, created by Robert E. Howard in the 1930s. Produced by Jetlag Productions and Sunbow Productions, the series debuted on October 1, 1992, ran for 64 episodes and concluded exactly two years later, on October 1, 1994.

Overview

This 64 episode cartoon series premiered October 1, 1992 and was produced by Sunbow Productions. The series was produced in association with Graz Entertainment for the first thirteen-episode season, and Jean Chalopin's Creativite et Developpement for the remaining episodes. Conan lived in the Black Sea region with his parents throughout his childhood. While out with his grandfather one day on a trek, meteors dropped from the skies. Conan collected some of these "fiery tears" and brought them back to his family.
   The metal turned out to be Star Metal, the strongest metal in existence. Conan's father forged the Star Metal into various weapons and sold them. His finest work, a magnificent sword, he kept for Conan. This last weapon was laid in a crypt and covered over with a heavy stone slab. Conan's father told him that when Conan was "man enough" (for example, strong enough) to push off the stone slab, he could own the sword.
   The evil, shapeshifting, Serpent Man wizard Wrath-Amon wanted this Star Metal to release his deity Set from "the Abyss". Set had been banished from Earth long in the past by the combined powers of virtually every living wizard on Earth because he wanted to enslave the human race.
   Upon hearing of this cache of Star Metal, Wrath-Amon went in search of Conan's family. He and the Snake Cult killed many people in their search for Star Metal (which occurred in the films). Conan's father had sold most of the Star Metal by this point, and told Wrath-Amon that he'd sold all of the star metal (this was a lie; aside from the sword, it was revealed in a later episode that he'd hidden pieces of Star Metal with other villagers). Wrath-Amon used the spell of living stone upon Conan's family.
   Conan sought the Star Metal sword to attack Wrath-Amon and his followers. When the Star Metal sword got near Wrath-Amon it disrupted his magic and showed his reptilian face. To this he said "Those who see the true face of Wrath-Amon must perish!" (this scene is similar to one in the film.)
   Wrath-Amon's henchmen are also shapeshifting Serpent Men. When Conan's Star Metal sword is close enough to them it broke the spell that disguised them and revealed their true form to be Serpent-Men. When Star Metal made contact with the Serpent-Men it banished them to the Abyss with Set. Spies and agents of Set and Stygia, many of them also serpent-men, were present in many cities, nations and tribes throughout the land in the age of Conan.

Conan the Barbarian vs. Conan the Adventurer

As compared with the original Conan stories and the black and white Marvel Comics such as King Conan, Conan Saga, Conan the Barbarian, and Conan the King, the cartoon Conan displays a higher degree of modern morality. While the Conan from these tales is bloody, a womanizer, thief and so on, cartoon Conan has more in common with sword-wielding cartoon characters such as He-Man.
   He is a kind and caring character, albeit a little naive, who stands up for his friends and what he sees to be right and is very respectable.
   It is possible that when Conan the Adventurer came out, the original planned villain was the skull-faced sorcerer Thulsa Doom who was the template for He-Man's archenemy Skeletor. However Wrath-Amon (who is loosely based on Thoth-Amon) came into existence as the main villain.
   The series also spawned a small toyline in 1992 created by Hasbro.
   Eventually the final plot where Wrath-Amon summons the evil serpent god Set was placed in the 2002 version of He-Man. In this storyline, King Hiss and the snakemen summon their god Serpos and He-Man fights Serpos to save Eternia.
   This first incarnation of Conan in cartoon form performed much better than its sequel, Conan and the Young Warriors, which lasted only 13 episodes.

Characters

Heroes

  • Conan (Michael Donovan) - The main character of the story. In this version, his parents are turned into living stone and there are few hints of his predestination of becoming a king; the references come as either a private joke to those who know the Conan mythos (one episode ended with him wearing a crown on his head, to the amusement of his allies) or as a finale note (In one episode in particular, Conan rescues a princess from a one-shot villain. Her father, a king, promised his kingdom to whomever returned her safely home and naturally, Conan succeeds in rescuing her which is a spoof of the adult Conan movie's King Osric asking Conan to rescue his daughter but Conan doesn't rescue her from Wrath-Amon but is thrown in prison for demanding the promised payment which is his weakness here. He is rescued then by the princess he saved who comments that Conan would always be a king in her heart as the closing line). It is stated a few times that he and his Cimmerian tribe are descended from the people of Atlantis, and Conan is a descendant of Atlantean kings. Unlike Conan the Barbarian, he's more of a kind and caring character with Jezmine as the only woman he's involved with. He shows mercy to some of his opponents and nonetheless reconciles with friends, unlike the original Conan the Barbarian. He is portrayed to be able to break metal chains, do more unusual feats of strength as well unlike the movie Conan. He eventually defeats his long-time archenemy Wrath-Amon, the leader of the Snake Cult but was forced to face the old leader of the Snake Cult Ram-Amon as well as Set (his final enemy) in the last battle. By vanquishing Set, he'd somewhat permanently defeated the Snake Cult.
  • Needle (Michael Beattie) - Conan's fledgling phoenix sidekick. He possessed the ability to enter flat surfaces and magically transform into a phoenix design (although he needed his magical tail feathers to accomplish this feat, and lost this power if he lost one of them). He spent most of his time inside Conan's shield. Needle speaks in the third person giving others nicknames (for example he calls Conan "big dumb barbarian") and loves to eat pomegranates. He eventually learns how to harness his full power and aid Conan in battle. When in public, Needle (who has the ability to speak) is often asked to impersonate a parrot in order to not arouse suspicion, an act which he greatly resents.
  • Thunder - Conan's willful (but loyal) horse, eventually armed with Star Metal horse shoes. Thunder was stubborn, refusing to enter cities, and threw Conan from his back on more than one occasion rather than enter a city.
  • Zula - Prince of the Wasai based from the original Conan literature, may have inspired T. J. Storm's character Bayu in the live series, who is a different but similar person. He is the first ally Conan makes in the show, when Conan is captured and enslaved, alongside Zula and other captives. He and Zula start a slave rebellion and free the other slaves. Zula makes Conan his blood brother. Zula's cousin Gora was a spy for Wrath-Amon, and secretly tricked Zula into the ambush where he was captured by Wrath-Amon's slavers so he could inherit the throne instead of Zula (ironically, by making Conan his blood brother, Zula made Gora third in the line of succession). Gora schemed against Conan and his friends, and was eventually discovered and captured. Zula was a master of the sign of Jhebbal-Sag, which allowed him to communicate with beasts and persuade them to aid him. Originally armed with Star Metal bolos, he reforged them into a boomerang because the bolos tangled. They would return on command thanks to Jezmine.
  • Jezmine (Janyse Jaud) - An agile circus performer who possesses a set of Star Metal throwing stars, her character was possibly based on Valeria (she started as a thief but became an honest woman for the rest of the series but is in love with Conan nonetheless) especially where the first point is that Conan and Jezmine are seen climbing a tower where Jezmine attempts to steal some priceless treasures. Her parents are later revealed to be a nobleman and woman in the city of Tarantia. To her horror, she learns that her mother serves Wrath-Amon and her father is the serpent man Astivus, making her a half-breed. From that moment, she's terrified her Serpent-Man heritage will assert itself. When her father Astivus, who loved Jezmine's mother, sides with Jezmine and her mother against Wrath-Amon, Wrath-Amon banishes her father and mother to the Abyss. A magical potion applied to her Star Metal shuriken allow Jezmine to magically summon the throwing stars to return to her. She shared this potion with Zula. Jezmine hated Astivus, despite his love for her. She and Conan were able to free her mother during a trip to the Abyss, and later Astivus escaped when Set and the Serpent-Men banished over the years were freed from the Abyss by Wrath-Amon. Once again, Astivus chose Jezmine and her mother over serving Set, and it's implied in the final episode that Jezmine might be willing to reconcile with him. Unlike Valeria, Wrath-Amon doesn't kill her.
  • Greywolf (Scott McNeil) - A wizard from the magical city of Xanthus. Originally armed with a bare staff, he was given the mystical "Claw of Heaven" made of Star Metal that was mounted atop his staff and effectively doubled his magical power (as stated on a couple occasions). His brother and sister were transformed into werewolves in a plot by the Stygian queen and sorceress, Mesmira. As a result, he consistently seeks a cure for their condition alongside of Conan. At the finale, he isn't able to turn his siblings back to normal, though he did manage to give them a small sampling of the cure that causes them to revert to human form once per month (on a full moon). The inability to completely cure his siblings remains as a plot dangler which never even happened in the sequel Conan and The Young Warriors which is somewhat similar to the events of Conan the Destroyer.
  • Falkenar - Champion of the kingdom of Kusan, he the use of the "Mantle of Wind" to fly, and is armed with a Star Metal whip. He and Windfang are bitter enemies through repeated attempts by the villain to invade Kusan. He has a female falcon named Stormclaw. He is the only character who isn't featured in the logo
  • Sasha & Meesha - Greywolf's older brother and sister, transformed into wolves by Mesmira. During one episode a single flower was found that could transform one of the siblings back into a human. Not wanting to have to choose, the flower was split down the middle each eating half, giving them the ability to resume human form once per month, on a full moon. In only one other episode did the siblings appear as humans.
  • Snagg (Gary Chalk) - A barbarian (as strong as Conan) from Vanirmen tribe, which lives at the sea shore. Snagg likes to travel by water. He often quarrels with Conan, because they grew up in neighboring countries with different culture. Once even a war happened between them. Despite it Snagg and Conan are true friends. Snagg also has Star Metal weapon - axe and grapnel. Later he gave his grapnel to make Star Metal horseshoes for Thunder, when Thunder saved his life.
  • The Kari Dragon -

    Villains

  • Set - The evil god of the serpent men as well as the Snake Cult. He is a giant cobra with mystical powers but he only has one head unlike the usual representation from Marvel Comics. He planned to enslave the human race, deceived many into his cult and as punishment, he was locked away into the Abyss for that offense by the Elders. He gives orders to the Snake Cult's high priest to give him the Star Metal, to build seven pyramids to release him. He returns in the finale to wreak havoc only to be banished once again thanks to the combined efforts of Conan, his friends and a surprise guest who turns out to be his sworn enemy. Conan and his friends sent him off with the Star Metal weapons. He was locked away for good.

    The Snake Cult

    The Snake Cult is an evil religion that worships its god Set and lures away victims, even rulers who fear the wrath of Wrath-Amon (similar to the Conan movie). Wrath-Amon preaches the wicked religion of Set and so did the sorcerer Ram-Amon before him. Their quest is to set their god free from the Abyss. Unlike in the movie versions, the only brutality the Snake Cult is revealed to do are kill people and enslave them, with less violence, although it's safe to assume that they also eat human beings but isn't shown.
  • Wrath-Amon (Scott McNeil) - The evil sorcerer who currently leads the Snake Cult and the archenemy of Conan. Unlike Thoth-Amon, he was once a gila monster who was changed into a serpent man who overthrew his own master Ram-Amon who suspiciously resembles Thoth-Amon and became the new leader of the Snake Cult. He currently owns the Black Ring and now has the mission to free his god Set with the help of the Star Metal. Conan's grandfather states that his evil is legendary, that he's feared by kings like the movie version of Thulsa Doom, and that he possesses so much power. But he only fears Set who is his deity. He led the attack on Conan's village (but then, Conan had grown man enough, in contrast to the movie where Conan is still a child when it happens where he's supposedly to kill Conan's parents) where he turns Conan's parents into stone instead of killing them like in the original line. At the end of the series, Conan reverts him back into a gila monster after a hot battle before his followers revealing him to be a fraud instead of beheading him, to reduce the violence. Like Thoth-Amon in Conan, he's powerless without his black ring. It was said that if his ring is destroyed, his spell of living stone on Conan's family would be undone. He obviously looks like a serpent man even without being exposed. His long life span may either be because of the Black Ring or his ability to shed his snake skin as most members of the Snake Cult are serpent men.
  • Dregs (Doug Parker) - Wrath Amon's evil Naga assistant. He once became Dregs-Amon when Wrath-Amon was going to undergo hibernation. He quickly changed his loyalties when Wrath Amon was defeated, and served under Ram Amon. He was crushed by a large statue in the final episode, but it isn't revealed if he survived.
  • Skulkur - One of Wrath-Amon's henchmen. A powerful undead who can raise skeletons. Once a member of another Snake Cult branch in Africa, where Set is worshipped as Damballah. It is assumed that they're cannibalistic as well.
  • Windfang - Windfang is a fire breathing four armed winged dragon-man enslaved by Wrath-Amon. Windfang was once a human general named Venturas from Koth that opposed Wrath-Amon 200 years before the events in the series, but was captured and mutated by Wrath-Amon. He was in love with Jezmine initially because she reminded him of his dead fiancée Lady Mirim, but although she showed him kindness she didn’t love him. Windfang also commands other creatures similar to himself. He has an eyrie high in the mountains where he keeps trophies of his long lost past and human self.
  • Ram-Amon - Wrath Amon's creator and predecessor. A black sorcerer and previous leader of the Snake Cult, probably a member of a forgotten race. Whether or not he's a snakeman still remains to be seen. He bears resemblance to Thoth-Amon as well. He is a far greater sorcerer but why the producers split up both characters of Thoth-Amon into two still remains to be seen. He later replaced Wrath Amon after his defeat by Conan, and escaped following the defeat of Set.

    Other villains

  • Mesmira (Kathleen Barr) - Mesmira is apparently a member of the Stygian royal family, the evil queen of Stygia, and a powerful sorceress who battled Conan and company several times. She initially appeared as a visiting sorceress in Xanthus, pretending to be a friendly visitor, before revealing herself as an agent of Wrath-Amon seeking to attack Xanthus. Her further appearances on the show continued in that deceptive vein; she often appeared using her illusion magic to disguise herself, generally as an attractive, seemingly innocent young girl, and typically engaged in subterfuge and deception to further her goals. On several occasions, star metal has failed to have any harmful effect upon her, so she's almost certainly human, indicating that there are human Set worshippers in Stygia, even many who have apparently reached high positions (though it stands to reason that serpentmen and serpentwomen may have interbred with her human ancestors at some point in the past). Despite being a member of the Stygian royal family and the Queen of Stygia, she didn't rule Stygia (a position she most certainly strongly desired), as the Black Ring was in Wrath-Amon's possession, and rulership of Stygia apparently depended upon possession of the Black Ring (It is possible that Wrath-Amon's seizure of the ring from Ram-Amon disrupted the process of succession, and it might have passed to her under ordinary circumstances). Although she initially served Wrath-Amon, she hated him, and tried several times to overthrow and kill him in order to seize the Black Ring and rule in his place. Mesmira turned Greywolf's siblings into werewolves; after he acquired the Claw of Heaven (a piece of star metal that greatly increased the power of a wizard who possessed it) and affixed it to his staff, she sought to take his staff to further her power. She found Conan attractive, and openly sought his affection. She hated Jezmine (possibly stemming at least partly from jealousy of her close friendship with Conan and viewing her as a rival for his affections,) and Jezmine despised her right back. Jezmine didn't fully trust her even during their initial meeting, before she revealed herself as a villain, and often exhibited suspicion of her when she appeared disguised by illusion as an attractive girl. At the end of the series, after Set's reurn, she assists Conan's friends in infiltrating Stygia to launch an attack upon Wrath-Amon (as she'll never rule Stygia if Set conquers the world,) and after Wrath-Amon is defeated, she escapes with the remains of the Black Ring.
