 ==Origin==
 {{wikipedia|The Scarlet Citadel}}
-Pelias shares his name with a character from ''The Scarlet Citadel'', a [[Wikipedia:Conan the Barbarian|''Conan'' short story]] written by ''[[Wikipedia:Robert E. Howard|Robert E. Howard]]'' - the encyclopedia entry originates from its reprinting in 1967 collection ''[[Wikipedia:Conan the Usurper|Conan the Usurper]]''. This Pelias is one of the rare sorcerers to ally with Conan: after Conan, king of Aquilonia, is betrayed and imprisoned within a Korshemish dungeon by the machinations of the Kothian wizard, he meets Pelias, a former rival wizard of Tsotha-lanti. Pelias frees Conan and helps him escape the dungeon and regain his position as king of Aquilonia, and later avenges himself against Tsotha-lanti.
