Additional Rules & Information for slaves
Courtesy:
A NOTE: The kitchen is stocked with basic medical supplies, containing a jar of healing slave, rep clothes on a small tray located in a cuboard easily reach.
Take note of these additional rules!
**Note** A slave is permited to wait 10 ehns (minutes) if a Free is urted or has dropped off the list at the bottom of the page during a serve. After that time she can move on and serve other Free. If there are any problems the slave should in the first instance speak with the first girl or if personally owned, her owner.
Above all else - RESPECT always!!!
By way of courtesy, if there is a slave dancing, or Free sparring that chatting should go to pm's, as attention should be turned to those dancing or sparring, kajira that are serving whilst a fellow kajira is dancing or Free are sparring should continue to serve with the desire to be found pleasing by the Free they serve.
And remember, kajira are always busy! Whether it be serving the Free or doing chores and in the case of those in white silk, observing, learning and practicing!
1. NEVER PM
(whisper) a Free Person without permission! Many make the mistake of
whispering to other Free without prior permission; that is a punishable offense. All Free must be asked before P'ming, but any can PM any slave at any time, any place without prior permission; they would be only to glad to help you any way they can.
2. Gorean Shores does not use bota's at this time. All kalana is in bottles and served at the feet of the Free and serve chilled unless told otherwise; paga is served warm/hot in three footed bowls unless told otherwise. Cold paga, ale and mead are all in the cold room in big vats or casks, so take the vessel (three footed bowl/tankard/horn) and fill it in the cold room; no bottles for these items.
3. The locked money box to drop coins is at the dais where the Captains sit; many a time a slave is looking about, not sure where to take the coin placed upon their tongue. Remember, slaves do not touch money with their hands.
4. ALL GS slaves, ALL personally owned slaves and ALL trained visiting slaves are expected to offer service after greeting. Only those that are not trained are allowed to observe quietly. A slave may offer service to A Free they observe needing service or if not sure, a simple "may this one serve Any?" will suffice.
5. The use of the old A/all or U/us, etc... is no longer necessary. The respect is shown with the name capped of all Free Persons as well as your actions. Free Persons departing should always be "wished" well, not told to "be well". An example: "This girl wishes all well".
6. Although most of Gorean Shores is a capture zone, all collared slaves are protected by the collar they wear. New, un-collared slaves can enter the Piazza, Forum, and Slave Kennels rooms safely to learn and observe. Slave classes are held on Thursday night at 20:00 ahn (CST) in the Slave Kennel room and all kajirae are welcome to attend. Always check the Message Board for any changes to times.
7. In Gorean Shores, one kisses the side or the base of the vessel when serving a Free (supported in the books) one doesn't taste or offer to taste the drink
unless a Free orders one to do so. The Gorean Shores Council has officially banned the practice of "rim sweetening" — this will not be done in Gorean Shores by any slave. The practice is not supported by the books and if a Free wishes to taste a slave He can always go directly to the source.
8. The Gorean Shores Council has decided that male slaves will be allowed within the walls of GS though are expected to behave properly, be respectful and with no show of heat.
9. The Council of Gorean Shores require the first girl of the tavern is to be addressed as "mistress" by all other Tavern slaves. This is in recognition of both the position and authority which the first girl exercises over all slaves in Gorean Shores, whether owned by the tavern or not.
10. Abandoned slaves: If after NO contact, (or in some cases, no serious attempt to resolve the issue of release from an unwanted collar) for a period of 30 days, it is within the power of the Council to make a decision to award a slave the status of * abandoned * and remove the old private collar she wears and deal with her status in whatever way they see fit.
