Ynga the Hyperborian

I have been impressed with the Hyborean Age since the first Conan book I read, as it is populated with a rich diversity of exotic cultures at varying degrees of civilization and technology. This piece is based in a time which predates the Hyborean Age…

#1 yeti test

According to REH, the Atlanteans devolved into albino apes and then evolved into Cimmerians. So perhaps this yeti is a branch of those apes which followed another branch and became these fierce beasts?

6 points

So after I made the yeti, I wanted someone to fight him but who could stand against such a mighty foe? Of all my characters, only Ynga has the strength to face it...

6 points

Off to a good start, but I don't like Ynga's hair so that needs to change. While I'm at it, I am seriously considering a viking helmet...

  He’s supposed to look ugly, so he can make Ynga look hot by contrast…

        The first game we played in the Gym was dodge ball. I jumped to avoid a thrown ball and it took my legs out. Spent the next two weeks post-concussion not allowed to participate in Gym.
        
        Needless to see the perception was I wasn’t tough. Luckily the next sport was football.

A viking helmet would be the perfect touch.
