* During his time as a pit fighter, Conan is given a woman to have sex with as a reward for his many victories. The woman has been stripped naked, shoved into a room with a hulking barbarian, and is naturally frightened, expecting him to ravish her. But Conan instead gently leads her away from the leering eyes of the onlookers, covers her up, lays her down and looks her over with a gentle eye, wordlessly reassuring her that he won't harm her.
