Torvaldsland Thassa's Outpost and Trade-Rules

Rules


1.Ignorance is not acceptable. If you do not know the answer to a question seek it out with either the High Jarl or one of the Home members, or simply read these pages, you may surprise yourself and find the answer on one of them, believe it or not that is what they are here for.

2. We will follow the Prodigy combat system as it seems to be the Gor-wide standard.

3. If you are a slave wishing to observe put an -o- beside your name. You may ask to PM then ask any questions regarding anything pertaining to the room as long as you both respectful and do so within reason. The -o- may be worn in the room for a period of 2 weeks, at which point you should have enough info to make a well reasoned descision regarding your staying or not. If you come in the room without the -o- then you will immediately become collared no questions asked.

4. All entrances will require at least 2 entry posts for citizens, and 3 for non-citizens and visitors. Once you have yourself established as a temporary Merchant during your stay only may you follow the 2 posts rule. Raiders will follow the 3 post rule for both entry and exit. Please make your RP realisitic on entry and anything you do within the Post.

5. The High Jarl's word is Law here, and all disputes within the Post will be handled by either Himself or someone He has granted to do so. Descisions will be final. The matter shall be scripted and placed upon the Board where He or the appointed Person will place a ruling as soon as it is reasonably possible. All Spars shall be scripted on the Board and in the case of Spars the High Jarl shall choose a Judge if it being Judged is so desired by the combatants. The results of the Spar Judge is Final as well.

6. No visitor aside from Home members or temporary Merchants may pm any slave of the Home without first seeking the permission of either the Owner or a ranking member of the Post.

7. No RT shall be brought into this room, this is the information age and any RT discussion aside from having to leave due to RT shall be discussed, so keep OOC to a bare minimum as this is a highly active roleplay zone.

8. There shall be no Raides accepted without at least 3 Men of the Home present, and any Raide shall be scripted and placed on the Board. I have no quarrels with Raides as long as they are RP'ed correctly and per room rules, all I ask is that they be placed on the Board for acknowledgement. ((These Raides will remain as fun RP and if any drama, disputes, etc blow up from these as this is a drama free zone then Raides will cease to be allowed here, We are here for fun, let's keep it that way, We can go back to the hassle of life when We turn off Our puters))

9. If you do manage to get banned from this room, then do not bother returning under the character name you are under or any future names. We do not like banning people but if it becomes necessary and warnings are not heeded then it will become so.

10. Dualling=Dead period, and instant banning will occur regardless of rank or stature in the Home, and any future RP from this person will by the members of this Home be considered null and void.

11. Our bondsmaids shall refer to Men either as Master or Jarl, according to their preference. This is NOT BDSM so do not use Sir.

12. As long as a Free Woman acts as such she shall remain as such. FW avs do not have to be veiled here, but shall cover her body appropriately. Now if a FW chooses to take her place at the Anvil she may do so and bare a kolar at which point she becomes a trollop just like the rest of her sisters and shall be placed through the same training regimine as all other slaves because that is what she has become.

13. If you don't own a slave, and seek one, see the High Jarl as He is of the Slaver Caste and runs the House of Tarnsfire about getting you one. You will be expected to invest the appropriate amount of time in RP with the bondsmaid, and if everything is well and you are a Member of the Home, then something can be worked out. I would not have any Free having more than 3 slaves in a chain. Do not discuss with the bondsmaids your wishes but be honorable and approach the Owner.

14. The Closed Door meeting room in the Hall is for Members of the Home only, and aside from cleaning no slave is to be in there, nor is the meeting to be interrupted, no Raides will be accepted while in Meeting.

15. Bondsmaids that are coined out may accompany those renting to a Cabin for rent. There must be a Free of the Home in the room and acceptable payment received for such to take place. Those girls allowed to participate in this know who they are and if you are restricted do not bother asking. If you are Owned it is up to your individual Owners to decide what They will or won't allow from you. If you are an owned slave and break either the Home or your Owner's rules, then any Free of the Home may cage you, and the matter will be discussed between the High Jarl and the Owner in a closed door session.

16. Messengers may be allowed to enter the room and once recognized by a Free of the room the message may be delivered either by PM or aloud. Messengers will not be allowed RP and once the message is delivered and understood then the Messenger may leave. This is the only example of not following protocol with the exception of RT emergency.

17. Do not be a gamer, it sucks, and upsets the room. This will not be tolerated. RT matters are understood.

18. If you travel outside the Post you are responsible for yourself unless on official Post business. Off Duty Guards even NPC ones can be borrowed for an FW or anyone else seeking escort to go to the Fair or any other place on Gor if they belong to the room as a Member of the Home. It is also appropriate for an FW to ask a Male Free of the Home for escort as FW rarely travelled alone without finding a little band round their neck. When you travel it is your responsibility to know the Rules where you are going and act responsibly. The Post will not feel sorry for you if you don't, simple as that. This is not a refuge, if you get in trouble elsewhere and they come Hunting you here, the Post will allow after discussion of the interested parties and the High Jarl has taken place. We are reasonable here, and as long as you act reasonable you shall be treated that way.

19. The High Jarl has the right to alter any rule within the walls of the Post if it is deemed by Members that the Rule is not working, or there is an immediate need for such to occur. Use common sense here, and you will go far.

20. You are expected to wear Your Caste colors in Your tags here, if you have trouble with the html let Me know and I will help. Ghost Tags will not be allowed and if Your Caste uses the Black color You may choose a darker gray to reflect Black, do not use Black itself because it can be read.

21. Unless a bondsmaid is given permission from their Owner a bondsmaid of the Home or owned by one of the Members here may not travel outside the Gate of the Home. You let em go, you go get em when they get in trouble, their your property. No Visiting Free shall take a bondsmaid from Post property without a bill of sale from the High Jarl, no exceptions. Any uncollared slave entering the Home shall be collared to a {HoT} collar and immediately sent to the Slaver House for appraisal and book keeping purposes. This collaring shall be posted to the Board under the appropriate thread and may be done by any Free Male of the Home. You may not fur a slave until she has been cleared to do so, and the only way any clearance can be done is through the House of Tarnsfire Slaver House. A girl will be assessed and be given the appropriate status per what she knows, and any promotion to the next level shall be at the High Jarls discretion. Any bondsmaid of slave rank may assist in the training of less knowledgeable girls.

21. The Founder of this Home will abide strictly by PureGor rules and they will be enforced without any question within this site, and none of the Home rules are meant in any way to go against site rules, so to simply put it, if you have a question about it, you better ask before you do it. I have copied the rules for PureGor below and also pasted a link there below it to back up what I have stated, ignorance will NOT be tolerated, period.

Roleplay Rules


1)In Pure Gor you may use NPC (Non Playing Characters) , they are simply for enhancement of roleplay -

In combat - they are merely fodder  ie: Guards etc.NPCs may be force posted per prodigy rules.

No Child characters are allowed to be played in Pure Gor period - No exception .

2)All Chatters, observers must follow the rules of each room you enter, You will see a list of rules on each entrance page it is highly recommended you read this page as ignorance is no excuse. Repeated offenses may result in permanent banning from the site. By entering the rooms you agree to follow these rules and accept the consequences for breaking them. You will receive at least 2 warnings in Site Ran Rooms, breaking the rules after the 2nd warning you will be removed from the room. 2nd offense of breaking the rules we will ban you from the room permanently.

3)Dualling is NOT allowed in Gorean roleplay. Dualling is where one person runs two different characters concurrently anywhere in Gorean online role play. Anyone caught dualling will have all their characters actions annulled and be banned from all Pure Gor rooms.

The one exception to this rule is animal chars can be played within the following restrictions.
3a)the animal char can not be used as a way for the main char to be vindictive and attack people without taking any damage themselves.
3b)the animal most often will be a pet or a wild animal used to enhance rp.
3c)Animal chars can not be used to kill regular chars.

4)Shelving a character is recommended only  to be the last option players who are engaged in r/p of captivity seek.You should honor your position on Gor until it comes a time you are free to shelve or work with your captor to resolve the roleplay ammicably.

If a certain typist has a pattern of shelving to avoid consequences of a roleplay - they will run the risk of being banned from the site for a month

If a roleplay begins to affect a typist realtime -  you need to post to the boards explaining why you are shelving - please us the appropriate Board ' " Shelving " which is in the Role Play catagory . Failure to do so could possibly end in a site ban . Sometimes roleplay can be intense for some , and we suggest perhaps when you shelve - you take a break from the stress.

5)Ignoring of a post made to you by another. This has never been acceptable behavior in the Gorean community. If  you are in a r/p and someone forces themselves in to your r/p, and  they have taken the proper steps to do so, you MUST honor their post and respond.

The only exception is if you have a person on ignore for OOC Harrassment. This action MUST be posted on the boards who you are ignoring and why and CAN NOT occur during any captive / combat roleplay. If you claim to be ignoring someone and post to them on Pure Gor Boards , acknowledge them in Role play your claim of ignoring them is null and void.

6) All Open Combats occurring in Pure Gor will Be judged on PG Boards.

It does not matter what site you or your captor reside in or if you even have a homestone , for that matter - .Captured means Captured - This is inclusive of Pure Gor Members as well.

What happens after a judgement is rendered is no concern of PG.

This pertains to Pure Gor Site Rooms Only

7) Pulldowns are required for your roleplays to be valid - HOWEVER - the accidential ommission and subsequent adjustment will NOT void a roleplay. .
