Conan the Barbarian companion

Description
Simple Arnold-near-lookalike Conan the Barbarian companion.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Can also be found in the Nexus: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=11243

Attention!
To maximize the Conanization factor of the follower, use the Lore Friendly Armor mod and equip the barbarian armors - easily found on bandits - on Conan! (Found here: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=6684)
He was meant to wear the armor right away if you have the pack, but for some reason the CK did not like this solution. Will look into this later.

About the mod:
This is a simple companion mod featuring an Arnold-near-lookalike Conan the Barbarian.

I wanted to keep the rough Nord look, as I found all the male-beautification mods making everything really plastic-y and every man a virtual Ken-doll. We're living in Skyrim here, not Barbieland.

If you find that Conan doesn't look enough like Arnold, try to think of it as preserving the Skyrim lore and feel. Heh.

If you're using some of the beautification mods, I can't guarantee Conan looking as he does in the pictures!

For now this is just a simple companion mod, as I just wanted a hulking barbarian as a companion for my mage. I'm not planning on making him able to be married as of now, but if people like this and want more, then why the heck not.

Where to find Conan
Conan will be residing inside the Bannered Mare in Whiterun, just next to the main entrance. Find him there.

NOTE:
For everyone having problem with a black/gray face, you need to use the console to change this.
It's a well known bug in the CK, and we can't really do anything about it now.

You can try and fix this using the console:

1. Open the console with the tilde/half key (left of the number 1 key)
2. Target Conan by clicking him
3. Type "setnpcweight 99" without the " marks into the console and press enter

This should fix the problem with a grey head.

@EZE, sounds like a mod conflict to me, or just the usual Skyrim AI hijinks.
You could try running the Conan mod alone without any other mods to rule out any mod conflicts (possible AI or companion mods might conflict). If that doesn't work, then I'm afraid I can't help you further, since this Conan uses the basic Skyrim companion AI package.

And a small note to everyone who visits after this message: Thanks for the interest in the mod. Just remember, it's 6 years old now, has never been updated (I kind of stopped modding after I did this mod), and runs on the most basic things you can find on the mod creation tool. I'm not actively working on it, nor will I update it anymore. I'm subscribed to the chat thread but I won't really spend my time going through problems considering the current state of the mod.

TLDR: It works, but if you have problems, you might need to figure them out by yourself as it is also 6 years old and not in active development. :steamhappy:

Seems perfect Cimerian, well-done. Aye, Arnold was by far the best "Conan", but here is SKYRIM, not Hyberboria.
