History of TARAMIS: Taramis, Queen of Shadizar (Douglas), hires Conan the Cimmerian (Schwarzenegger) to lead a quest to secure two magickal artifacts; the Heart of Ahriman and the Horn of Dagoth. According to the Scrolls (Book) of Skelos, Taramis needs these items to awaken her Cthulhu Mythos-type god Dagoth (Dagon?), the Dreaming God ("not dead but dreaming"?). In exchange for his services, Taramis promises Conan that she will magickally resurrect his lost love Valeria.
Taramis also sends her niece, the Princess Jehnna (D'Abo), on the quest because only this psychically gifted girl can touch the magickal artifacts without being killed. But Jehnna is a nubile nymphet with a royal crush on Conan, so Taramis also sends her eunuch bodyguard Bombata along to protect the girl's virginity. Conan takes along his thief pal Malak (Walter), and later recruits his old friend Akiro the Wizard (Mako), and a woman warrior named Zula (Jones) to fill out his quest team. What Conan doesn't know is that the treacherous Taramis is only keeping Jehnna a virgin in order to sacrifice her to Dagoth, and that Bombata's orders are to kill him as soon as he procures the magickal treasures.
With Jehnna's help, the big Cimmerian succeeds in stealing both the Heart of Ahriman and the Horn of Dagoth, and foils Bombata's lumbering attempts to kill him. To further frustrate Bombata's and Taramis' hidden agenda, Akiro, Conan's magickian sidekick, has also read the Book of Skelos, translating it from hieroglyphics on the walls of an ancient temple. Akiro informs his barbarian buddy that Taramis plans to sacrifice Jehnna to Dagoth, and that reawakening Dagoth the Dreaming God is probably a bad idea since it would result in "death to the world". Bombata again tries to kill Conan, then steals Jehnna back to Shadizar where she has a date with a sacrificial dagger after she places the Horn back into Dagoth's forehead. Conan now has a clue that Taramis' promise was a lie. Tired of being played for a chump, Conan returns to Shadizar with his team, where they are barely in time to save Princess Jehnna's lovely throat from the dagger of Dagoth's priest. Conan bashes Bombata and trashes Taramis by feeding her to her pet god. Then he slays the hideous Dagoth just minutes after its stormy rebirth, thus saving all life on earth in the Hyborean Age.
FAQ's:
(1) What is the helmet made from? The helmet is metal, the entire casing including the spikes. Either an alloy or iron, I am not sure. The horns are made from wood. The inside as you see is leather.
(2) Will it fit my head and what cap size is it? I don't know. It is a large helmet. I am a cap size 7 1/2 and it had plenty of room left. One size fits all! It is not very comfortable to wear, it is big and heavy.
(3) Is there a certificate of authenticity? NO. Marto does not make one for this item or any other helmet. However, this is an official Conan Movie item with the Conan logo on 1 side of the helmet. It is an exact 1:1 replica of the movie item.
