Due to the major changes to his backstory, Conan is mostly The Stoic nursing a grudge instead of a free-wheeling Emotional Bruiser.
Adaptation Dye-Job: Schwarzenegger has dark brown hair instead of the plain black that the original Conan had.Thus he's primarily driven by Revenge instead of wanderlust, thrills, and wenches.
Adaptational Angst Upgrade: Conan's backstory was rewriten to include a Doomed Hometown and being Made a Slave and forced to fight in Gladiator Games.Plus, the whole dark armor/massive helmet combo. He even repeats "My son" in a way that makes any Star Wars fan widen their eyes. Actor Allusion: Thulsa Doom (as played by James Earl Jones) asks Conan to join him, and says that he is pretty much his son now.After spending a short while weighing them up, she dispatches them two at a time before catching up with her friends. It's best demonstrated in the escape from Thulsa Doom's Mountain of Power, where she ends up getting cut off from the rest of the party by four armed guards. Action Girl: Valeria is shown to be just as capable a warrior as Conan.
Subotai refuses and decides to stick with his friend.
