I'll develop further.

Go here : http://hyboria.xoth.net/ to learn a lot. This site should make you happy.

If you're still not happy, go here : http://conan.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page but I doubt it'll make you significantly happier.

Still not happy? Geez alright, go here then : http://aoc.wikia.com/wiki/Age_of_Conan_Wiki though I promise you won't find any happiness there at all.

If you don't like the magic that is internet, or if you do like books, I advice you to simply read Robert E. Howard's magnificent literature.

Go here http://www.amazon.com/ to find your spiritual creaminess.

And did you say films?

I like anything with Wesley Snipes. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000648/

You can't beat Ace Ventura when it comes to funny. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109040/ , http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112281/

Conan films?

Conan the Barbarian. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082198/

Then watch the sequel, Conan the Destroyer. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087078/

Don't watch this film http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089893/ even though it may seem like a really good idea. And even though Brigitte Nielsen is really hawt in it.

Kahotep and his Se Tut Setem have gotten their hands on some sweet Stygian lore.

I advice all of you mangy Stygians to see for yourself here. http://setutsetem.forums-free.com/the-mind-of-set-f21.html

Yeah I have read it.
Its really good and I can really recommend it for you to read.

Kahotep has done a fine job I think. And his forum is very beutiful (I am a bit jealous hehe).

Even tho Im not sure what I think about using egypthian or arabic in-game really as an opinion on his guild name Se tut Setem. Kinda like I would have a ancient Swedish vikinga name on a cimmerian guild and expect everybody to cheer at my knowldege about the hyborian world right? Metagaming?

Cool maps.

And yeah, about the Egyptian, I think you're right.

But still it sounds cool, and if you only use it as a name and don't actually go around speaking it and refering to it as Stygian, I don't think any real harm is done.

I agree with you my friend.
