Book 1. (5 results) Tarnsman of Gor

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
2 6 There was a tapestry to the right, a well-woven depiction of some hunting scene, I took it, but fancifully done, the spear-carrying hunters mounted on birds of a sort and attacking an ugly animal that reminded me of a boar, except that it appeared to be too large, out of proportion to the hunters.

5 140 They are diurnal hunters and eat only what they catch themselves, usually one of the fleet Gorean antelopes or a wild bull, taken on the run and lifted in the monstrous talons to a high place, where it is torn to pieces and devoured.

13 12 Shielded among the crags of the Voltai, invisible except from directly above, I saw four or five small cooking fires, such as might mark the camp of a mountain patrol or a small company of hunters, perhaps after the agile and bellicose Gorean mountain goat, the long-haired, spiral-horned verr, or, m...

13 13 Curious, I dropped the tarn lower, not willing to believe the fires belonged to either a patrol or to hunters.
Details
10
13 14 It did not seem likely that one of Ar's patrols would be presently bivouacked in the Voltai, nor did it seem likely the fires below would be those of hunters.

Details
10
2 90 In the Voltai Range bands of hunters, usually from Ar, stalk the larl with the mighty Gorean spear.
Details

2 85 They do have, however, certain clans, not castes, which specialize in certain matters, for example, the clan of healers, leather workers, salt hunters, and so on.

10
3 2 I might have thrown myself to the ground as the larl hunters from Ar, once their weapon is cast, covering myself with the shield; but then I would have been beneath the clawed paws of four squealing, snorting kaiila, while the riders jabbed at me with lances, off my feet, helpless.

Chapter # Sentence # Quote Confidence
6 56 Most, panic-stricken, knowing themselves no match for trained warriors, fled like animals, crying out in fear before the hunters of Port Kar.
Details
10
9 133 The nearest solid land was about one hundred pasangs to the north, but it was open land, and, there, on the edges of the delta, there were log outposts of Port Kar, where slave hunters and trained sleen, together, patrolled the marshes' edges.

12 120 Here and there, among the wagons, leashed, clad in short woolen skirts, heavy bands of iron hammered about their throats, under the guard of huntsmen, cowled in the heads of forest panthers, there walked male slaves, male outlaws captured by Marlenus and his hunters in the forest.

2 595 "Red hunters of the polar basin, trading for tea and sugar, have reported the failure of the herd to appear".
Details
10
2 605 The red hunters lived as nomads, dependent on the migrations of various types of animals, in particular the northern tabuk and four varieties of sea sleen.
Details
10
3 1143 For another thing the hunters of the north, though a generally kind, peaceable folk, except with animals, think little of killing.
Details
10
3 1145 As hunters they live with blood and death.
Details
10
3 1179 The red hunters are generally a kind, peaceable folk, except with animals.

10
4 38 The red hunters are not gentle with their animals.

10
4 515 I hoped the supplies I had sent north would mitigate what otherwise might prove a catastrophe for the red hunters, the nomads of the northern wastes.

10
4 556 I hoped the supplies I had had Samos send northward would save the red hunters from extinction.

4 723 It was a carving, rather roundish, some two pounds in weight, in bluish stone, done in the manner of the red hunters, a carving of the head of a beast.

5 77 "Only red hunters can live in such a place," whispered Samos.
Details
10
6 426 "The hunters," he said.
Details
10
7 130 "Is it common," I asked, "for the hides to be so plentiful in Lydius in the spring?" Normally hide hunters prefer the fall tabuk, for the coats are heavier.
Details
10
7 143 If the herd of Tancred had indeed emerged from the forests why had it not yet crossed Ax Glacier? Surely hunters, even in great numbers, could not stay the avalanche of such a herd, which consisted of doubtless two to three hundred thousand animals.
Details
10
7 145 Unfortunately for the red hunters, it was also the only one which crossed Ax Glacier to summer in the polar basin.
Details
10
7 168 The red hunters were to die by starvation.

9 8 On our side of the wall was the compound, with the hall of the commander, the long houses of the guards and hunters, and the roofed, wooden pens of the laborers.
Details
10
9 17 When they mill the hunters fall upon them.
Details
10
9 32 No longer are they confined to robbing the hides of honest hunters.
Details
10
9 171 In such a way the red hunters identify their animals.
Details
10
9 194 "Polar slaves, beasts of the red hunters," said a man.
Details
10
9 276 The men of the polar basin are usually referred to as the red hunters in Gorean.
Details
10
9 278 Those individuals, more than the red hunters, I thought of as Indians.
Details
10
9 279 Yet, doubtless the red hunters, too, if one were to be strict about such matters, were Indian.
Details
10
9 280 On the other hand the children of the red hunters are born with a blue spot at the base of the spine and those of the red savages, or red kaiila riders, are not.
Details
10
9 329 "The red hunters depend on the tabuk," I told her.
Details
10
9 347 "The red hunters will starve," I told her.
Details
10
9 352 "The red hunters," I said.
Details
10
10 40 Red hunters are often reluctant to speak their own name.
Details
10
10 41 What if the name should go away? What if it, in escaping their lips, should not return to them? "One whom some hunters in the north call Imnak may share your chain," he said.
Details
10
10 98 Even trading in the north sometimes takes on the aspect, interestingly, of the exchange of gifts, as though commerce, obvious and raw, might somehow seem to offend the sensibility of the proud hunters.
Details
10
10 214 Air, incidentally, is extremely important, generally, in the effectiveness of the clothing of the red hunters.
Details
10
11 13 At the eastern end of the wall a similar ruse surprised the camp of hunters.
Details
10
11 18 The fur and hide of the tabuk provides the red hunters not only with clothing, but it can also be used for blankets, sleeping bags and other articles.
Details
10
11 31 But the mission of the hunters had not been to harvest from the herd of Tancred.
Details
10
11 47 The men and guardsmen who had been at the wall's center, in the buildings there, and west along the wall, including the hunters at that termination of the structure, learning the breaking of the wall and the freeing and arming of many laborers, had for the most part fled.
Details
10
11 222 "Captured guardsmen and hunters," I said, "released, given supplies, have also taken their way south".
Details
10
11 313 The red hunters regard white women as slave beasts.
Details
10
11 481 In such times even groups of the red hunters sometimes perished.
Details
10
11 506 I recalled how she had responded when, before I had won my freedom, I had informed her that the red hunters might starve, if the tabuk were not permitted to continue their northward migration.
Details
10
12 29 Many of the women of the red hunters, too, went about so, inside and outside the tents, in the warmer weather.
Details
10
12 147 Borrowing, too, is prevalent among the red hunters.
Details
10
12 169 The red hunters, though a genial folk, keep their animals under a firm discipline.
Details
10
12 224 Many of the red hunters cannot speak Gorean.
Details
10
12 247 In a moment a small woman, a girl of the red hunters, fiery and very angry, was striking it.
Details
10
12 256 As it was, from their point of view, a hot day, one which was above the freezing point, she, like most of the women of the red hunters, was stripped to the waist.
Details
10
12 261 I would later learn that the unmated daughters of even important men, namely, good hunters, were often kept in the poorest of furs.
Details
10
12 268 Her hair was worn knotted in a bun on the top of her head, like that generally of the women of the red hunters.
Details
10
12 286 Red hunters, though they are reticent to speak their own names, have little reservation about speaking the names of others.
Details
10
12 292 The names of the red hunters, incidentally, have meaning, but, generally, I content myself with reporting the name in their own language.
Details
10
12 332 Hundreds of the women and children of the red hunters, fanned out for pasangs, shouting, beating on pans, had turned the herd toward the great alley of stone cairns.
Details
10
12 355 At such times the red hunters will dwell by the sea, in the spring and fall by its shores, and, in the winter, going out on the ice itself.
Details
10
12 364 It is played not only by the red hunters, but in Hunjer and Skjern, and in Torvaldsland, and as far south as the villages in the valley of the Laurius.
Details
10
12 378 She was dressed, save for her bondage strings, in much the same way as most of the women of the red hunters, bare-breasted, with high boots and panties.
Details
10
13 31 The red hunters think little of eating half a pound of sugar at a sitting.
Details
10
13 93 Actually I thought Akko's appraisal of the potentialities of the situation was overly hopeful, it being colored by his native good humor and optimism, vices endemic among red hunters.
Details
10
14 66 Red hunters are often demonstrative in the matter of their emotions.
Details
10
14 154 It was Akko's animal, and he, in the fashion of the red hunters, had cheerfully volunteered its services.
Details
10
14 188 Naartok, like many of the red hunters, was not a fellow to be bitter about such things.
Details
10
14 247 "Red hunters do not get angry," I told him.
Details
10
14 248 "Sometimes red hunters get angry," said Imnak.
Details
10
14 282 Nudity is not unusual among the red hunters.
Details
10
14 295 The hunters and the women gathered about cheered Imnak on.
Details
10
14 313 Her temper and sharp tongue, I think, had made many enemies among the red hunters and their women.
Details
10
14 349 It is a thing red hunters do.
Details
10
15 641 "I do not want to remain a slave of red hunters indefinitely," she said.
Details
10
18 44 The other hunters in the boat, discarding their buckets, seized up their lances, slender hunting tools, with fixed heads, commonly used not in throwing but in thrusting.
Details
10
18 47 Beside me now Imnak and the other hunters, all with lances, began to drive them, like needles, into the side of the animal, again and again.
Details
10
18 52 I held the line, keeping the umiak at the beast's side, so that the hunters could thrust into it at point-blank range.
Details
10
20 26 The drum of the red hunters is large and heavy.
Details
10
20 57 It is rather commendable, I think, that the red hunters make up songs.
Details
10
20 62 Songs, even simple ones, are regarded by the red hunters as being precious and rather mysterious.
Details
10
20 101 Although there were some fifteen hundred red hunters they generally lived in widely scattered small groups.
Details
10
20 106 In these camps the red hunters lived most of the year.
Details
10
20 193 I did know the red hunters were extremely permissive with their children, even among Goreans.
Details
10
21 3 "What are they doing?" asked Thimble, or Barbara, who had been serving boiled meat to the hunters and their women.
Details
10
21 9 The huts, and even the houses of ice sometimes built by the hunters in their journeys and hunts, can be quite comfortable, even when the weather outside may be dozens of degrees below zero.
Details
10
21 12 When the houses are cold, of course, the hunters are generally sleeping in their furs, together with their women.
Details
10
21 19 A yard of height can make a difference of several degrees of temperature inside a typical dwelling of the red hunters.
Details
10
21 20 Although the red hunters can and do experience intense cold their lives, generally, are not made miserable by their climate.
Details
10
21 25 Red hunters, for example, will often go about cheerfully stripped to the waist in weather in which many individuals of the south would find both a tunic and a cloak comfortable.
Details
10
21 36 It was, after all, the culture of the red hunters.
Details
10
21 95 In the second and third round I caught women of the red hunters.
Details
10
23 116 A simple Kur, hungry, predatory, aggressive, would have presumably seized up the body of the sleen or perhaps meat from the sled and, in the face of the charging red hunters, made away, feeding as it retreated.
Details
10
23 126 Behind me I could hear the red hunters, some hundred yards away, and running toward me.
Details
10
23 145 He was a plump, jolly fellow with a weakness for sweets prodigious even amongst red hunters.
Details
10
23 160 The red hunters looked at one another slyly.
Details
10
23 162 Ram, of course, a trader for years, was familiar with the tricks and jokes of red hunters.
Details
10
23 223 "What did not occur to them, I suspect," I said, "is that the sound of your sleen would carry as far as it did, and that the hunters would come forth to greet you".
Details
10
23 262 "If it were on the land," I said, "I think the red hunters, of one village or another, in their hunting, would have come across it.
Details
10
23 435 The hunters and the women clapped their hands and cried out with pleasure at the skill of the various mimers.
Details
10
23 447 White-pelted Kurii are called ice beasts by the red hunters.
Details
10
23 452 Not much was known of the mysterious Karjuk, even amongst the red hunters, save that he was one of them.
Details
10
24 20 Poalu, a woman of red hunters, had no fear or repulsion concerning the object.
Details
10
25 96 This is a habit of red hunters.
Details
10
25 105 This is not to say that red hunters cannot become lost.
Details
10
25 129 This was not only to consider the terrain as it might appear on a return journey, something I had learned from Imnak, but for another reason as well, one held in common by warriors and red hunters.
Details
10
26 300 "Red hunters do not expect to die," he said.
Details
10
32 61 "You wanted to close the tabuk off in their northward migration to drive the red hunters south and away from the area?" I asked.
Details
10
35 1089 Other hunters stood about.
Details
10
35 1092 Red hunters stood about.
Details
10
35 1099 The red hunters were putting their enemies completely at their mercy, and that of the winter night.
Details
10
35 1101 Red hunters streamed in, past me.
Details
10
35 1106 Drusus, with a dart-firing weapon, joined one contingent of hunters, in their vanguard, to cover them and match fire with whatever resistance they might encounter; Ram, seizing up a weapon, joined another contingent.
Details
10
35 1108 Even more of the People, women and children as well as hunters, were making their way across the ice to the complex.
Details
10
35 1110 Karjuk continued to stand by the port and issue orders, in the tongue of the red hunters.
Details
10
35 1111 "There must be more than fifteen hundred of the hunters," I said.
Details
10
35 1124 More red hunters streamed past us.
Details
10
35 1134 More hunters came past us.
Details
10
35 1200 Behind me, some hundred yards or so, were Ram, and Drusus, and Karjuk and Imnak, and numerous red hunters.
Details
10
35 1211 Men of the complex, and red hunters, had fallen.
Details
10
35 1213 But there had been too many red hunters, and too many weapons.
Details
10
36 4 There was no fight left in them; they knew that on the ice, away from the technology of the complex, they could survive only if the red hunters chose to let them do so.
Details
10
36 5 Some would be sold to traders in the spring; others might be kept in the camps, to serve the red hunters; they, male slave beasts, would be stronger than female slave beasts.
Details
10
36 8 All were kneeling naked; most already had bondage strings on their necks; those that did not the hunters could sort out or do contest for.
Details
10
36 23 "And bring, too, the bravest and best of your hunters, who performed for our cause in this place the best and noblest works of war".
Details
10
36 45 With us were many of the red hunters, some seventy or eighty, and Ram, and Drusus.
Details
10
36 55 She was short and plump like most of the women of the red hunters.
Details
10
36 74 Several of the red hunters with us laughed, to hear a slave so speak.
Details
10
36 88 "Seize her," said Imnak, to two of the red hunters.
Details
10
36 94 The girl struggled in the arms of the red hunters.
Details
10
36 263 Outside the room which had been used for slave selection by the victors, I took a dart-firing weapon from one of the red hunters.
Details
10
36 296 He hurried away, calling to the red hunters.
Details
10
37 38 My other girls, Audrey, Barbara, Constance, Belinda, and the girl who had once been the Lady Rosa, were tied on the sleds of other hunters.
Details
10
37 99 Red hunters were turning their sleds about.
Details
10
38 37 Ram and Drusus had their sleds, and, besides mine, there were the sleds of five hunters, men who would accompany us south, across Ax Glacier.
Details
10
38 40 Various girls were tied similarly to the sleds of the hunters who would accompany us.
Details
10
38 278 The red hunters set their mittened hands to the uprights on their sleds.
Details
10
38 283 It is a trick of red hunters, to see what the return journey will look like.

1 796 The Red Savages, as they are commonly called on Gor, are racially and culturally distinct from the Red Hunters of the north.
