Conan Barbarian
Barbarian, thief, wizard and combat multiclass
Conan Barbarian It is one of the first comic book adaptations in the world, but the settings and the story seem to be part of the TTRPG module. The place and time when Conan is real but fictional, as the quotation says: “Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis and the rise of the sons of Arius.”
The main character even has a class, a barbar, and with his two -handed sword and lack of armor fits into this part. His first companion, Subatai, introduces himself as a thief and archers, and it seems that the interest in love interest is some combat multiclass. Their search is to find and save the girls of the king, who was intrigued by the cut of Thuls Doom. Conan also has its own private revenge to consider.

For someone who likes BG3A dark urge plot or prefers RP more visceral and realistic TtrPg, Meat + blood can be compared with what a live version Crazy It would look. It is deeply rooted in a courageous medieval aesthetics-shed Italy of the 16th century. This is a much less enchanting depiction of “calling your dead” groups of mercenaries living and working in the Middle Ages.
