    Stygian
    Aquillion
    Cimmerian

    I think what he means is, what skin tones, hair texture, facial structure will be represented.  Like you can have a black human in WoW. 

    Unfortunately, I don't think they will have the kind of customazation that is available in many single player games.  Where you can actually contour the forhead, eyes, chin, etc. 

    I would like to see that in mmos one day.

    I think Datanase82 meens a race of it own.

    Currently there are Stygians, Aquilonians and Chimmerians. And I think that Data is talking about other races like Numedians, Picts, Aesir or other human-races from the Hyborean setting.

    The guy that Conan meets in one of the movies.. calls himself "Archer and Thief" ... this is kinda guy that Data is talking about, imo, but i cant remember what this race is called.. is it the Border Kingdoms that holds these physical traits?

    Anyway, Im a big fan of Conan, and would welcome all the human races as playable.. maybe even Hyperboreans.. (cant remember is this is how they are spelled) although they should be a prestige race on their own, sorta like Warmonger and Peacebringer from City of Heroes.

    Thanks

    As someone stated above the races are:

    Aquillonian, Cimmerian, and Stygian

    Lots of good information here:

    You character will be very customizable, the Gamesoy article said that there will even be 'sliders' for butt and breast size.

       I think Subotai is from Hyrkania a  race based on the nomadic Mongols.  The Hyrkanians pray to the 'Everlasting Sky and the Four Winds' as referenced in the movie when Subotai pokes fun at Crom.

    You must not play many MMO's.  The old Star Wars Galaxies had awesome customization.  City of Heroes/Villians has insane character cusomization.

    Age of Conan will have upwards of 40 different sliders to creat the character _you_ want to play as. 

    Also, AoC will be a "Mature" game so some age restrictions will be present.

    No I never played Star Wars Galaxies. 

    Oops forgot about CoH.  Yes great character customization.

    I'm glad to hear AoC will have lots of sliders.

    Yet another reason to get excited about this game.

    I think Khitai may have been the race i was looking for as far as Akiro goes, and I believe you are right as far as Subotai goes. But either way I wanna look asian dammit
