Currency
The Goreans use also coins for any payments. The Coins vary from city to city, in some regions/cities only certain Coins from this area are accepted. Well known Coins are for example: the gold tarns of Ar, Port Kar and Ko-ro-ba and the silver tarsks of Tharna. Every year they try to standardize coinage, but until now without success. Also letters of credit and notes are known on Gor, but no paper currency.
The value of a Coin depends on the responsible city as well as the appearance of it. On most Coins there is a tarn or a tarsk on one side and the first letter of a city. In some cities, such as Tharna, the coins are drilled so that the people can might string them.
The smallest unit of the currency is the Tarsk-bit. Most Coins are made of copper or silver, the golden Tarn Disks are sometimes made in double weight, to push their value. There are also some Coins which can be splitter into pieces, so the people can make a change.
Referring to the books, there are the following values:
Tarsk-Bit:
from 4-20 Tarsk-Bits are one Copper Tarsk
Copper-Tarsk:
from 40 - 100 Copper-Tarsk equals one Silver-Tarsk
Silver-Tarsk:
10 Silver-Tarsk equal one golden Tarn Disk
Golden Tarn Disk:
normal or double weight, so higher value
For a Gorean, a Silver Tarsk is a Coin of considerable value. Most Goreans pay their goods and also the slaves with Copper Tarsks. A golden Tarn Disk is a high value Coin and is more than a low caste Gorean earns in a year.

Tal
The common Gorean greeting. Normally, it is often accompanied with the right hand raised to shoulder level, the palm inward, facing the body. Also, there are examples within the books, of slaves using “tall” as a form of greeting.
Hail
A form of greeting, reserved for experts and champions at some matter. An expert swordsman or kais player would be greeted in this manner. Slaves may also use this term, when referring to a qualified Free Person. An Ubar would qualify for this form of greeting.
Thank You
Now there is no special Gorean way of thanking another person. With slaves, they may or may not be thanked. It all depends on the will of the Free Person. Many slaves are especially fearful of any Free Person, who shows them such kindness.
Slaves Addressing the Free
All slaves must address the Free as either Master or Mistress. Slaves are not permitted to address any Free Person by their name. It is said that a slave girl grows bold if her lips are allowed to touch the name of her Master or Mistress. But some owners prefer to hear their name said by a slave. This is commonly permitted only in private, out of the presence of others. A slave may tell others the name of her owner, for explanation or identifying purposes only.
Paga Tavern
Now, by the books, when a slave enters a paga tavern, they don’t have to ask permission or perform any form of karta or obeisance at the door. Of course, there are some rooms online, that doesn’t have a slave do any of those things either. A slave should enter quietly and go to kneel in the serving area. A slave should never greet any Free when they enter, unless their Master is present. Of course, if their owner isn’t present, then they could ask permission from the Owner of the House to greet all within. Plus, the slave does need permission to leave though, and this they could ask either their owner or any Free Person. Now, a slave cannot be just sitting around doing nothing. That is sheer laziness and it ruins their owner’s reputation. If their not serving, then they should be doing some chores, until they are told to serve, or see that there is service to be done.
Sitting
A free man sits cross-legged. They rarely use chairs, which are usually reserved for special people, such as, Administrators, Ubars and judges. Most Goreans tend to find chairs to be uncomfortable. Now, a free woman kneels to sit. They kneel with their knees kept close together with their hands, palms face down upon their thighs. Of course, all slaves kneel to sit, with the position of their hands and knees, will depend on the type of slave they are. Plus, slaves never sit in chairs, for they might be either whipped or slain for doing so.
Streets
When walking or riding down a street or road, according to the books, the Goreans commonly stay to the left side when passing others. This is done, so that the sword arm, commonly the right arm, faces the person who is passing.
Station
Gor is a hierarchical world, where status, station and caste are vitally important. In general, you show respect to those with superior status or caste. This includes Free Women. A Free Woman of High Caste, deserves respect from a Low Caste man. Even a wealthy woman would be considered of high status and would also be respected. Though, men do consider themselves dominant over women, they still respect the ideas of status and castes. Men also respect other men of higher standing than themselves.
Haggling
The rule in the market place and stores, is that there are no fixed prices. Haggling is the order of business. In haggling, start with a low offer and the seller would start with a higher offer. Soon, the parties will come down to a reasonable price, that would pleased everyone.

Laws
These here, are just a few of the Gorean laws, based from the books. There is an average of one hundred and thirty-three or so laws within Gorean terms.
Now, I’m not encouraging any to remember all these laws. But, to keep in mind, for there are a few sites online, that might enforce them. So, keep weary and always read before acting, whenever online.
1 Once outside the city wall, it’s laws will no longer apply and the city will not protect you. But, there are a few exceptions to this rule. First, certain locations that are located outside the city, called banner keeps or Merchant Keeps, that the city has full legal control and is governed by the city’s laws. And second, the Merchant Law, extends past the city walls, protecting commerce. Thus, it binds many of the cities of Gor.
2 Many cities may have one gate, know as the Sun Gate, a primary gate that is only open from dawn to dusk. Most cities might have a special night gate, that allows citizens to enter and leave at night.
3 Members of the Players Caste (Players, Poets, Musicians and Singers) may freely enter any city. Anyone else, who enters without permission, is punished by impalement.
4 All Outlaws (including Panther Girls and Talunas) are forbidden entrance into the city and subject to impalement.
5 Assassins, who bears the mark of the black dagger upon their forehead, are permitted, without interference, to enter any city.
6 To claim unowned land, outside the city, places a yellow stake of claimancy into the ground at dawn until dusk, protecting the land. When dusk falls, the land is claimed with a Home Stone.
7 Citizenship is a privilege, not a right. All must actively apply for it as well as to earn it throughout life. Mostly when reaching the intellectual majority, all must perform the citizenship ceremony. And the specifics of the ceremony will vary from city to city.
8 If the citizenship ceremony isn’t performed, within one year of reaching intellectual majority, will be punished by expulsion from the city. This applies only to those who are born within the city or born to the those of the city.
9 One benefit of citizenship, is that it provides protection against foreign creditors. Of course, it is unknown to whether this area is covered by Merchant Law or not.
10 Any can renounce an existing citizenship and acquire citizenship in another city. Obviously, all must be accepted by the other city as a citizen, meeting all prerequisites that are in place.
11 Only members of the High Caste maybe elected for High Council of a city. Each of the five High Castes, can vote for their own representative on the High Council.
12 Only members of the High Caste may vote for a city’s Administrator or to appoint an Ubar. Low Castes doesn’t possess any voting rights.
13 Each city determines which Castes and sub-castes will be legally recognized.
14 It is legally permissible to change one’s Caste, though most Goreans would not willingly change their Caste, being proud of their Caste no matter how low it might be. Otherwise, to change Caste, the High Council of the city must approve the change, based on qualifications for the new Caste and the willingness of the new Caste to accept the person.
15 By law, the Slaver’s Caste is a sub-caste of the Merchant’s Caste. The Slaver Caste though often prefers to consider themselves as a separate Caste. It is unknown to whether this determination is part of Merchant Law or not.
16 A Free Companionship, the Gorean form of marriage, last for a single year. If not renewed by the twentieth Ahn of the anniversary date, it will automatically dissolve.
17 A person may have only one Free Companion at a time. In the equatorial jungles, men may posses multiple companions.
18 A Free Companionship will dissolve earlier than one year, if one of the parties is either enslaved or dies.
19 Forgery of an official city seal on mercantile products is illegal. This is to help protect the integrity of official city products.
20 Patents, which cover inventions or copyrights, which cover written materials, are available in a city, but their power extends only as far as the city wall. Thus, many craftsmen and manufacturers, keep their formulas and plans in cipher, to protect them from theft and unauthorized copying.
21 It is a felony to forge or falsify pedigree papers on any slave. Such papers might include information on brand type, number of different measurements, type of training received; a place for sales endorsements for when a slave changes hands and a remark section for miscellaneous information.
22 The theft of a Home Stone, maybe one of the most heinous crimes that exists on Gor. Despite this, the theft of an enemy’s Home Stone is also considered the greatest of glories, showing that the thief is favored by the Priest-Kings.
21 Thievery is illegal and harshly punished. First offence is punished by an ear notching. After that, the penalties for subsequent offences will vary by city and gender. In most cities, a Free Woman, found guilty of a second offence is enslaved. If a Free Man is found guilty of a second offence, he often will lose one of his hands.
22 Robes of concealment and veils, may or may not be required by law for Free Women. In some cities, it is only custom, while in others it is an actual law. An unveiled Free Woman is susceptible to be taken into custody by guardsmen, then to be veiled, by forced if necessary. Repeated offences can even lead to enslavement. Even where it is only custom, it is strongly recommended that all Free Women wear robes and veils in public.
23 In cities, where robes and veils for Free Women are not legally mandatory, there are other laws restricting on how much bare skin a Free Woman may show. If too much skin is shown, then the woman is subject to possible enslavement.
24 A Free Woman, who submits to a particular man, when there is no captured involved, may or may not become a slave. This will be dependent upon city law.
25 A Free Woman can sell herself into slavery. But, once the sale is complete, the woman cannot then revoke it.
26 Any Free Woman, who couches with Another’s slave or readies herself to couch with Another’s, become herself a slave and the slave of the slave’s Owner.
27 There are two basic legal statuses on Gor: Free and slave. Unless you are legally owned, then you are considered technically free, even if you are a prisoner, captive or outlaw. As a Free Person, they possess legal rights that slaves do not possess.
28 According to Merchant Law, a person is considered to be a prisoner and not a slave, as long as they have not been branded, collared or performed any gesture of submission.
29 Legally, slaves are considered property, on the same level as domestic animals. Their Owners may do anything they wish to them without repercussion. Their power over their own slave is absolute.
30 Slaves may not own anything, not even their own names.
31 When a person is enslaved, they begin a new life as a slave and may not be held accountable for any crimes that accrued while they were Free.
32 Any Free Person may discipline an insolent or errant slave, even one who is in the least displeasing. If the slave is killed or injured, the Free Person needs only to pay compensation to the Owner and only if the Owner requests such compensation. This of course, does not give any the right to injure or kill someone else’s slave. It simply states the penalty for such a violation.
33 If a lost, stolen or runaway slave is taken by another person, the original Owner has only one week to regain Their property before legal title passes to the new Owner.
34 For a slave to runaway from their Owner, is a serious offense.
35 It is the right of all people, Free and slave, to receive the Stabilization Serums, the Gorean life extension treatment. This maybe one of the only rights that a slave possesses.
36 Freed slaves are required to have explicit papers of manumission or they maybe enslaved without repercussion. Slaves, who have been branded or had their ears pierced and later freed, should definitely keep their papers handy at all times.

Differences between Online and Offline Living
This here is where anybody to everybody gets confused. It’s where people tends to get fantasy and reality or real life, gets mixed up.First off when someone online says that they’re Gorean, doesn’t mean that they were born on Gor. It plainly states that, they’re basically acting within customs and conventions of the Gorean society and culture.
Even now, some of these Goreans may only engage within the online role-playing life. While some, might introduce Gorean elements into their everyday lifestyle. And few would even do both. Plus, their definition of what it is to be Gorean varies. Sometimes drastically.
Now as I stated, many will take it too far and lose sight between the differences of fantasy and real life. Those who are “so called” Gorean doesn’t understand the full concept of the relationships between Master and slave. Yes, there is control over the slave, but not as harsh. Even though a slave is to obey their Master’s commands. There are still limitations for both to follow.
Okay first, for online slaves, it is usually to be seen and not be heard, unless given permission to speak or when spoken to. Also, they must serve and obey all who is a free person, besides their own Owner. Plus, there are all the positions that a slave must perform. For instance, when a slave girl is kneeling before a Free Man or Master, their knees are spread open. But, if the girl is kneeling before a Free Woman or Mistress, then the knees are suppose to be closed tight and eyes cast down. For a slave should never look into the eyes of a Free Woman, unless given permission to do so.
So, as any could see, online slavery is a bit harder and harsher to follow and understand. Also, all who is online must follow the online House or site rules, this way; there won’t be any confusion between players. Plus, the rules is for all, Free and slave alike. It’s there for everyone’s protection. Also, in the online Master-slave lifestyle there are so many rules and regulations to follow.
For instance, as an online slave, they can only have one Master, unless they’re a house slave or owned by the site. There, the slave must obey the Owner of the House (as role players will put it), along with all Free Members of the House.
In addition, all must be descriptive in the actions that are being done within the room. As an example, a slave needs to describe their movements when serving someone. They must put into detail the way their body moves, how they feel as they serve and takes place within the different areas they are working in. It is all very important.
Now, if someone is an online Master or Mistress, they can have as many slaves as they want. From one slave up to whatever. The most that I have ever witnessed was fifteen to one House. But, just like the online slaves, even the free needs to be descriptive in all movements and actions, this way, it keeps everything active and it lets others know what they’re doing.
Finally, within the offline or real life lifestyle, it is almost the same thing, yet it’s very different. Here, it’s usually between couples within the privacy of their own home. But, there are limitations to it all, for it’s real life and there many activities that goes around it, such as work, school or family, for that matter.
So, both parties have to set up the limitations. When a slave isn’t doing any activities that are outside the home, then they need to do their domestic chores, before they could do anything else. For instance, cleaning house, preparing meals, or doing lawn work. All of these must be done, before they could have any leisure time of watching television or playing on the computer.
The Master or Mistress when their home, they make sure that the slave does their chores and might reward them with either a treat or extra leisure time. Or if they wish it, rewards the slave with pleasure.
For my opinion, that there is one of the best connections between a man and woman. It’s when they could get to know each other more, expanding their relationship.
But, as I said before, with this type of relationship in real life, both parties needs to agree into doing this. It cannot be a one person decision. It must always be an agreement between both parties to make everything work out right. If not, then this not for those who abuse these rights to be part of the Master-slave relationship.
Plus, this also will work even if you’re either a dominant at home and a slave online or vise-versa. It helps out when needed, when telling the differences between both worlds.
Even now, some of these Goreans may only engage within the online role-playing life. While some, might introduce Gorean elements into their everyday lifestyle. And few would even do both. Plus, their definition of what it is to be Gorean varies. Sometimes drastically.
Now as I stated, many will take it too far and lose sight between the differences of fantasy and real life. Those who are “so called” Gorean doesn’t understand the full concept of the relationships between Master and slave. Yes, there is control over the slave, but not as harsh. Even though a slave is to obey their Master’s commands. There are still limitations for both to follow.
Okay first, for online slaves, it is usually to be seen and not be heard, unless given permission to speak or when spoken to. Also, they must serve and obey all who is a free person, besides their own Owner. Plus, there are all the positions that a slave must perform. For instance, when a slave girl is kneeling before a Free Man or Master, their knees are spread open. But, if the girl is kneeling before a Free Woman or Mistress, then the knees are suppose to be closed tight and eyes cast down. For a slave should never look into the eyes of a Free Woman, unless given permission to do so.
So, as any could see, online slavery is a bit harder and harsher to follow and understand. Also, all who is online must follow the online House or site rules, this way; there won’t be any confusion between players. Plus, the rules is for all, Free and slave alike. It’s there for everyone’s protection. Also, in the online Master-slave lifestyle there are so many rules and regulations to follow.
For instance, as an online slave, they can only have one Master, unless they’re a house slave or owned by the site. There, the slave must obey the Owner of the House (as role players will put it), along with all Free Members of the House.
In addition, all must be descriptive in the actions that are being done within the room. As an example, a slave needs to describe their movements when serving someone. They must put into detail the way their body moves, how they feel as they serve and takes place within the different areas they are working in. It is all very important.
Now, if someone is an online Master or Mistress, they can have as many slaves as they want. From one slave up to whatever. The most that I have ever witnessed was fifteen to one House. But, just like the online slaves, even the free needs to be descriptive in all movements and actions, this way, it keeps everything active and it lets others know what they’re doing.
Finally, within the offline or real life lifestyle, it is almost the same thing, yet it’s very different. Here, it’s usually between couples within the privacy of their own home.

Captive of Gor
.jpg)
Spoiled, rich young Elinor Brinton was no longer on Earth. She had been kidnapped from her New York apartment and carried across space to Gor by alien slavers.
Then the ship was wrecked and she was stranded on the strange world of Counter-Earth, where women were only property, to be beaten and subjugated at the will of the men who were their Masters.
Life to her became a never-ending nightmare.
In the great luxury city of Ko-ro-ba, she was trained in the provocative skills of a pleasure slave. In the Northern Forests of Gor, she was captured by the fierce outlaw Panther Girls.
And finally came Rask of Treve to teach her what all women should learn!
