Fun With Gor (Luther)

From Luther Scroll Archives

Tal all,

This is my Fiftieth Educational Scroll. For such a special milestone, I have put together a much different scroll than the previous ones. This scroll contains a miscellaneous mixture of more fun materials, from short stories and story-lines to a Gorean primer. It also contains information on the origins of Delphius, the Gorean role-play city I created. I hope you enjoy these Gorean tidbits.

Gorean Alphabet Primer

We have all probably seen children's alphabet primers. They assign a word for each letter of the alphabet and then briefly describe that word, usually in a rhyming sequence. I have created a Gorean primer, though not one for children. Numerous similar primers could easily be created in a similar manner.

A is for...Assassin, the dreaded Killer of the Black Caste

B is for...Bath girls, the beautiful kajirae who can swim so fast

C is for...camisk, the poncho-like garment that exposes the side

D is for...dina, the beautiful flower and brand that may adorn a girl's hide

E is for...exotic, the slaves that are specially bred

F is for...Falarian, the rarest wine it is said

G is for...gladius, the warrior's weapon of choice

H is for...Home Stone, that symbol that gives a city one voice

I is for...Initiates, the White Caste who serve the Priest Kings

J is for...Jarl, the rulers of Torvaldsland who preside at Things

K is for...Kajirae, the daughters of the chain

L is for...larl, the dangerous predator without a mane

M is for...Marlenus, the great Ubar who wants to unite the land

N is for...Nar, the Swamp Spider who even in self defense will not raise a hand

O is for...ostrakon, the tickets that buy you a view

P is for...paga, that delightful fiery brew

Q is for...quiva, the Wagon Peoples' legendary blade

R is for...Rencers, who live in the Delta where paper is made

S is for...Sa-Tarna, the grain that makes an excellent bread

T is for...Tarl Cabot, the hero of the Gor books you have read

U is for...urt, the Gorean creature like a rat

V is for...vart, the Gorean creature like a bat

W is for...World's End, the unknown area of Thassa fraught with danger

X is for...xenophobic, as Goreans hate the stranger

Y is for...yellow stake, that is used on land you wish to claim

Z if for...Zar, that unique Tahari game

About

Since the saga of the Books of GOR have started back in 1966 many texts have already been written and many persons have spent countless hours studying and sharing information to help others understand better what is GOR. One of these persons is known as “Ubar Luther” who wrote a series of papers (most seem to be over 15 to 20 years old, but still very up-to-date in many topics) called the “Luther’s Gorean Educational Scrolls” that were available on Gor-Now.net, but that site has been hacked. So to preserve them, I have moved them to this wiki.
