Representation
There is very little information about Zandru in Conan lore despite being mentioned in quite a few sources. Usually his name is used in common curses such as, "Zandru's Nine Hells!" or "Zandru's Bells!" Based on source information and implication, his visual representation is very vague but his symbolism leans toward a "grim reaper" like character bedecked in bells, each time his individual bells ring it is an announcement that a soul comes for judgement.

Rituals & Beliefs
Zandru is the lord of the afterlife and guardian of the dead. He is not worshiped as his own entity, but instead as part of the larger Zhemri pantheon. He is believed to work closely with Ong and is associated with funerary bells.

Zandru's Seventh Hell is brightly lit.

The Priesthood
The priesthood of Zandru enjoy the luxuries that all Zamorian priests are afforded, though unlike many other sects the bulk of a priest of Zandru's time serving in the temple is taken up in religious debate and the priesthood of Zandru are considered some of the more knowledgeable men in Zamora.
