A short note about the information in these pages linked below.
None of this is "general gorean" information that *might* or might not relate
to Port Kar. Things taken from a scene in a book about Tharna or
Treve or any other place on Gor....*may* or may NOT be
applicable in Port Kar.
These are taken only from studies of the parts of the books that take place
IN Port Kar. Or specifically mention Port Kar in the quote.
Sometimes we get lucky, and John Norman states
unequivocably that X happened in Port Kar... or Y did
NOT happen in Port Kar.
For the rest, we need to examine the scenes throughout
the books that happen in Port Kar.
Port Kar, as seen in many descriptions and quotes,
has quite a flavor all her own. She goes her own way.
She does as she pleases.
And it doesn't always concur with quotes tossed about
from other parts of the books :)
We have each chosen to come here, to spend our time in THIS city, the city of Port Kar.
But if we do not consider the true flavor of Port Kar, and each city on Gor
individually actually, then we might as well all just
roleplay in one big "Gor" room ~smiles~
