a device secured in place with by a broad mouth covering
strap, with three smaller straps attached to it, one to secure the broad
strap at the upper lip, another to secure it across the mouth, pulling
it back between the teeth, and one to secure it at the chin. These straps
are then pulled back tightly and fastened; the top strap above the ears,
behind the back of the head, to the lower straps behind the back of the
head. The heavy rolled leather wadding that is thrust back behind the teeth
with the broad mouth covering strap, by design, expands thus securing it
in place, packing the entire oral orifice.

Parts of the hood; the leather ball, the strap attached
at the front of it, and the belt, with its double loop, on the outside,
held in place by the belt loops, at its opening. Some hoods are little
more than sacks, of canvas or leather, with drawstrings. A small padlock,
passes through two rings, the buckle ring and one of the small rings, sewn
in the belt.
Mercenaries of Gor pg 75
This belt consisted of two major pieces; one was a rounded,
fitted, curved bar like waistband, flattened at the ends; one end of this
band, that on the right, standing behind the woman and looking forward,
had a heavy semicircular ring, or staple, welded onto it; the other flattened
end of the waistband, looking forward, had a slot in it which fitted over
the staple; the other major portion of this belt consisted of a curved
band of flat, shaped iron' one end of this flat band was curved about,
and closed about, the bar like waistband in the front; this produces a
hinge; the flat, U-shaped strap of the iron swings on this hinge; on the
other end of this flat band of the iron is a slot; it fits over the same
staple as the slot in the flattened end of the left side of the bar like
waistband. The belt is then put in the woman in this fashion. The waistband
is closed about her, the left side, its slot penetrated by the staple,
over the right side; the flat U-shaped band of iron, contoured to female
intimacies, is then swung up on its hinge between her thighs, where the
slot on its end is penetrated by the staple, this keeping the part of the
belt in place. The whole apparatus is then locked on her, the tongue of
a padlock thrust through the staple, the lock then snapped shut.
Kajira of Gor pg 103
A stout whip, with a long handle, which might be wielded
with two hands, and five dangling, soft, wide lashing surfaces, each about
a yard long.
Kajira of Gor pg 83
Some fifteen feet in length. When used in leading, this
amount of length would not be used, but would be coiled in the grasp of
the master. The length is useful if the slave is expected to perform leash
dances, is to be bound with the leash, or if, it doubled at the master’s
end, it is to be used to train or discipline her.
Kajira of Gor pg 336

Captive of Gor pg. 310
Made from wood, with wheels, levers, gears, pinions, joints,
braces, fitted sliding boards, notches and lock points, thus giving it
the ability to be adjusted into a variety of positions. The pleasure rack
has an aesthetic value. It serves two major purposes: 1) the exhibiting
and displaying of it's helpless prisoner; 2) to hold the female in any
position one pleases.
Rogue of Gor pg. 27 - 28
Slave is pulled to the post, close to it and facing it.
The heavy belt, with the ring on it, through which the loose post strap
passed, that strap looping the post and threaded through the belt ring,
was put about the belly, and buckled shut, tightly, behind the small of
the back. Able to move easily about the post but, given the post strap,
and the belt ring, can not be further than six inches from it.

Kajira of Gor pg 244
About four feet long and three feet wide, with a depth
of perhaps eighteen inches. It was of steel and opened from the top. In
the lid, at each, there was a circle, about five inches in diameter, of
penny-sized holes. It was locked shut, secured by two flat, steel bars,
perpendicular to its long axis, padlocked, in front, in place.
Kajira of Gor pg 148
Rather like the tarn goad, except that it is designed
to be used as an instrument for the control of human beings rather than
tarns….Unlike the tarn goad which has a simple on-off switch in the handle,
the slave goad works with both a switch and a dial, and the intensity of
the charge administered can be varied from an infliction which is only
distinctly unpleasant to one which is instantly lethal. The slave goad,
unknown in most Gorean cities, is almost never used except by professional
slavers, probably because of the great expense involved.
Assassins of Gor Pg 85
Consists of two rings, one for a wrist, the other for
ankle, joined by about seven inches of chain. In a right handed girl, it
locks on the right wrist and left ankle. When a girl kneels, in any of
the traditional positions of the Gorean woman, either slave or free, it
is not uncomfortable.
Nomads of Gor pg 154 - 155
Cages are not pleasant, measures 4 paces by 4 paces, can
house up to 20 girls within.
Marauders of Gor pg 12
Made of leather, normally pulled up, over the head, and
laced shut. Confinement in the slave sack is, incidentally, a familiar
form of light punishment for a girl.
Kajira of Gor pg 273
A girl is stripped, each ankle bound widely apart to stakes,
her wrists also bound widely apart to stakes, her thigh is cut and blood
is smeared on her belly to draw the animal. This is done when there is
no longer a use for a girl.
Captive of Gor pg. 230 - 231
An ornately barred, low ceiling cage, about five feet
high, rather roomy. The girl in the stimulation cage is not permitted to
look into the eyes of a male, not even a male slave. This is designed to
make her extremely conscience of males. Accouterments include: brushes,
perfumes, cosmetics, slave jewelry, heavy necklaces, armlets, bracelets,
and bangles. There is no clothing. There are cushions, bowls of copper,
and lamps of brass. There are surfaces of varying textures: deep piled
rug, satins, silk, coarsely woven cloths, brocades, rep cloth, a tiled
corner, sleen pelt, cloths woven of strung beads, cloaks of leather and
mats of reed. The point is to bring the senses to life.
Tribesmen of Gor pg. 24
Often used on a girl when she is guilty of minor indiscretions
or tiny misdemeanors. It is thought a fitting instrument for encouraging
a beauty to be more careful or zealous in her service.
Kajira of Gor pg 85
Metal bar, with a collar at each end and, behind the collar,
manacles which fasten the prisoner’s hands behind his neck.
Nomads of Gor pg 193

Beasts of Gor pg 161
Consists of a stout branch, about two inches thick, some
five feet in length, holes drilled in the center and near the extremities.
Fits behind the girl's neck, a long simple thong of rawhide fastens the
girl in place. Smaller yokes can be fashioned to secure a slave for other
purposes, such as enjoyment in the furs. An effective way of securing a
slave.
Savages of Gor pg. 281 - 282
Normally a pair of hinged planks, with matched semi circular
openings in the planks. The head and wrists are aligned with the openings,
the planks then closed are either tied or locked shut. This stock yoke
is sometimes placed on a girl while she is on her back. If the planks are
sufficiently wide enough, the girl is unable to see the actions of the
Master, she can only feel it.
