Barbarians of Gor is a ''[[By the Book|by the book]]'' (BtB) Gorean role-play server that is set in a group of islands many hundreds of pasangs west of the mainland in the middle of Thassa (the sea). The group of islands is collectively known as [[World's End]], and this season we are playing on the island of New Sardar (Exile Lands Map). Goreans, from the mainland, are marooned on these islands with no opportunity to return home and must make the best of it on a small island surrounded by hostile flora, fauna and natives. This island is less then 200 pasang square and numbers a [[Population |population]] in the thousands, not tens of thousands.

This season there is a significant threat from the native Stygians.

<I>Ten thousand years ago, Howard’s World of Conan was happening on Earth during the Hyperborean age.  Ten thousand years ago the Priest Kings of Gor were taking people from the planet Earth and populating their planet.  What if various groups of Hyborians were taken and placed on a remote set of islands in the far western edge of the ocean, Goreans call Thassa.  Like the rest of the planet, the Priest Kings would limit the technology available to these Hyborian descendants. Little would change of their original cultures over the intervening millennial but eventually they would be more Gorean than Earthling, even if as unknown to the mainlanders as the Pani were for so very long.
**A New Beginning**


When most of the Goreans and many of the natives of New Sardar took their chance to escape the impending volcanic eruption, the Stygian's of New Sardar began a crusade to dominate the exile lands. Those Goreans who remained behind, along with their Hyborian allies and Earth-born slaves settled in the area of Telith Island hoping the eruption would never come, but preparing for the worst.

The worse turned out, not to be fire raining from the sky, but blood in the streets. The Stygians were able to amass enough of a force to threaten the small town of Vargor and have been fighting simply to survive the onslaught. When word of the troubles reached those on the island (Season Two on Siptah) the Goreans organized to return and help defend the town.</I>

Conan Exiles has functioning combat NPCs called Thralls. These thralls can be used in almost any fictional way a player can imagine including a free man of their clan, a free woman of their clan, a guard protecting them, an owner, a free companion, a slave, etc. We encourage free women and slaves to make use of these thralls as their primary mode of combat using what is known as an "authority build", in which the thralls fight for you allowing you to maintain the fiction of being non-combative. These thralls also allow free women and slaves the freedom to travel with the fiction that they are either "with their guards" or "in the company of their owner/clan free men".  However, please note that the IC restrictions for woman and weapons still applies -- a "slave thrall" walking around with a two handed sword is not by the book.
 
;Note: The word "Thrall" in Conan Exiles refers to the the mechanical NPC of any gender and is not the same as the Gorean thrall of Torvaldsland.
