Taken from the Marvel Universe website, this is undoubtedly a rare instance of Cimmerian Sorcery, extreme in its requirements. It conflicts with a statement in a supplement, namely: "The Cimmerians have no priests, sorcerors, shamans or witches" (Fiercest, 92).
"(Savage Sword of Conan#157) - A Cimmerian sorcerer, Leir, called down the "Wrath of Crom" on a group of Hyperboreans led by Krakanites. The Hyperboreans had kidnapped the Cimmerians' women, and the Cimmerians had rescued them, but the Hyperboreans had finally managed to catch up with them and threatened to overrun them with superior numbers. The spell, by necessity, was performed within the boundaries of Cimmeria and required the "eyes of a dead enemy, the wings of a raven, the moss from the north side of a tree, and life's blood offered freely.
"For the final requirement, Leir directed his own grandson, Shaun, to run his grandfather through with a sword. Leir leapt atop a burning pyre which exploded with a burst of flame and dark smoke. Legions of dead Cimmerian warriors poured forth from a chasm in the Earth and overran the Hyperboreans. When the black clouds vanished, the Hyperborians all lay dead, but there was not a single mark on them--as if they had been slain by their own fear. "
If anyone has an interest in developing this for the RPG, feel free to post your ideas here.
