This is a Gorean room, and non-serious slaves should not come here for the purpose of disrupting the seriousness nor the enjoyment of this Steading and it's M/members.

All new slaves will first go into a {VF} collar until trained to the satisfaction of the trainer, and the Jarl. After training, a Steading Free Member may purchase the slave.

(1) There are six essential qualities that you MUST possess to be a bond-maid. These are not negotiable nor open for interpretation: Honesty, integrity, respect, honor, trust and complete and absolute obedience.

(2) A slave always will be pleasant and cheerful to a Master/Mistress. If a slave feels they cannot be of a pleasing, positive attitude, at all times they are in the The Steading, then they are not to enter, or are to leave until they are in the right frame of mind. It is understood that each slave will have troubles and problems from time to time.

(3) . a slave doesn't need permission to enter the Steading, however, all slaves need permission to leave. a slave will ask permission from your Master/Mistress if you have one, or of a Fjord Master/Mistress to leave. if the request is not answered within a reasonable amount of time, or if there are no Free present, a slave will ask for permission to leave 3 times, then may go.

(4) No slaves will argue with a Master or Mistress because the Master/ Mistress is always right, and any conversation with them ends with "Yes, Master/Mistress."

(5) A slave will not shout, nor use profanity.

(6) All questions and concerns will be brought to Lady Nyx or the Jarl as necessary. The duty of slaves is to serve and please, not to involve the Masters and Mistresses with the dealings between slaves. Lady Nyx does not take sides in any disagreement but will work to help settle things to the satisfaction of all before taking it to the Jarl.

(7) Slaves are encouraged to always remember that they are slaves. The Masters/Mistresses are their first priority. slaves must give Them attention over their fellow or sister slaves

(8) No thrall shall touch a bond-maid without express permission by that bond-maid's Master/Mistress, or, in the case of a Vanir's Fjord {VF} bond-maid, without the express permission of a Free. The penalty for such infraction is death. There are exceptions to this rule, as in a life and death situation.

(9) training slaves will study the ways of the Steading. you will be expected to greet and serve Masters and Mistresses and when not serving or studying, you will work around the Steading doing whatever chores need done. If you are new to Gor, you will not be required to serve during this period. We will work with you on this until you are ready and comfortable to do so.

(10) When a training slave feels ready to be tested, you will be tested before the Jarl or Lady Nyx. Please do not hesitate to ask for help.

(11)a training slave will not serve with heat nor offer services other than food and drink to the Masters/Mistresses. Serves and conversation will be done in tower only.

(12)A slave when in the The Steading and not serving will find something to keep them busy. There are always dishes to wash, servery to clean, stocking to be done, clothes to wash and mend, food to be prepared, and crafts to be done. Find something to do. Slaves are encouraged to be busy, even when no Master/Mistress is present.

(13)A slave will in a time of attack on this Steading go to a position of safety in the Med Room. No public conversation is allowed by slaves during the fighting. Healing assignments will be handed out in PM by takashi, Lady Nyx or a FW to you. Stay in the Med Room until the all clear is sounded.
