Re: Citadel Quiz #1
#30Red Sonja, who'll only bonk a man who defeats her in battle.

Belit the Pirate Queen -
Re: Citadel Quiz #1
#31ah AH Red Sonja is linked to Conan only in the comics and movie NOT in the books(bonus for Maxx!) Shes from a historical story(Siege of Vienna?) -
Re: Citadel Quiz #1
#32Not even in the movie. It was Arnold, but he was playing Lord Kalidor, not Conan. -
Re: Citadel Quiz #1
#33she's not from a historical story that I'm sure of.
Don't be jelly because I know my Conan beauties trio lol :P -
Re: Citadel Quiz #1
#34I am shamed at forgetting Belit.
But the historical story Aramax is talking about is referenced on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shadow_of_the_Vulture#Red_Sonya.2FRed_Sonja and, as far as I knew, the only thing Howard ever wrote about a Sonya character. -
Re: Citadel Quiz #1
#35I stand corrected. Aramax be right. Red Sonya of Rogatino, a 16th century tale.

Re: Citadel Quiz #1
