Adventured into his 60s
Never encountered a man stronger than himself
Was an excellent leader?
An Wilderness Survivalist
Killed two Frost Giants by himself.
Good at climbing and sneaking and sometimes compared to a cat
I think he might be a Pure Mortal
This is a quote from the other thread:

you know connan is kinda like papa raith. come to think of it white court vampire is perfect fit for some one like connan the barbarian with only addition to common vampire powers is nice will power fueled resistance to magic and you only need the skills to finish him.
Taran:
I’m not sure Connan ever fed on emotions. If anything, his discipline is quite low. The only similarity I see is that they are both old and became kings.

consider they both slept with numerous woman and actually enough one night stands so they dont develop long term commited relationship. So connan dont know the true love drawback of white court vampires all he knows how to fight and how to lay woman.( well to not quote thomas but bellit technically jumped on connans bone in middle of crowd) so my theory kinda stands. and lets not consider in this very own threat i post sanch's aestas raith build who used outsiders help to eat her demon. in connans case he honed his will enough due slave training and combat his demon technicly never get the chance to kill by feading or one of his old training rapes killed the partner so he turned with out knowing and thinked demons hunger is his desire to adventure.
Mr. Death:
Agreed, White Court vampire template does not fit with Conan in the slightest.
He's never shown manipulating emotions, or feeding on them. He's never shown to have supernatural power of any kind.
At most you've got circumstantial evidence that Conan kinda liked sex, which only puts him on even ground with like 99% of basically all of humanity.
So, no, your theory doesn't stand.
Sanctaphrax:
Well, they're both hypermasculine. But as far as my limited knowledge of Conan goes, they're otherwise dissimilar.
Speaking of limited knowledge, I'm not sure what Aspects Conan should have. But for the stuff you listed, I think I'd want these stats:
Superb: Weapons, Might
Great: Athletics, Intimidation, Survival
Good: Endurance, Presence, Stealth
Fair: Alertness, Discipline, Empathy
Average: Conviction, Investigation, Deceit
Brute Force (Might): Conan can use Might to attack unarmed.
Imposing Demeanour (Intimidation): Conan can use Intimidation for the social defence trapping of Rapport.
He should probably have more stunts but I'm not sure which ones. Maybe some straightforward numerical enhancers for Weapons; I'm not sure how tough the "frost giants" he fought were, but killing two of them sure sounds impressive.
He probably doesn't want too too many stunts, though; there's something to be said for having a ton of Fate Points when you want to be better than everyone at a whole bunch of different things. Presumably he can really pour on the invocations when he needs to break a bull's neck.
