Appearance & Clothing of Peasant Free Men
SEE Clothing worn by free men of the city cultures Rough knee-length tunics Two peasants walked by, in their rough tunics, knee-length, of the white wool of the Hurt. They carried staves and grain sacks. Behind them came another of their caste, leading two milk verr which he had purchased. Beasts Tunic and sandals "Don't," I said to the peasant. "It is already done," he said, wiping the blade on his tunic. I think the man's neck had been broken by the blow of my hands under his chin, but he had still been alive. His head now lay half severed, blood on the peasant's sandals. Gorean men are not patient with such as he. "The other?" asked the peasant. "There were two," I said. "Both are gone." I looked into the darkness between the tents. Beasts “True,” I said. Did he think that the color of a fellow’s garments was what made him a warrior? Surely he must realize that one not of the warriors might affect the scarlet, and that one who wore the grimed gray of a peasant, one barefoot, and armed only with the great staff, might be of the scarlet caste. It is not the uniform which makes the warrior, the soldier. Magicians Coarse garments Facing me, clean-shaven, but with a massive, regal face concealed in the hood of a peasant, his gigantic body broad and powerful in the coarse rep-cloth garment of what is thought to be Gor's lowest caste, there stood a man whom I could not mistake, even though it had been years since I had looked upon him, even though his great beard was now gone, even though his body now wore the hood and garment of a peasant. Assassin There are physical features common to peasant men. Big, broad-shouldered Large handed. That a man is a peasant is obvious in his bones and body. (Note - this is due to the fact that mating normally takes place within caste (SEE Caste on Gor) Thurnus was a shaggy haired fellow, with yellow hair, big, broad-shouldered, large-handed, clearly in his bones and body of the peasants. He was caste leader in Tabuk’s Ford. Slave Girl Here, a peasant from north of the river, also described as large. The proprietor of the tavern took the red-haired dancing girl by the arm, she crying out, and thrust her in her costume, ten slender silver chains, five before and five behind, depending from her collar from the sand. She fell at the side of the sand and crouching turned about, looking back. "This is Jason!" called the proprietor, indicating me. "He wagers ten copper tarks he can best any man in the house." "It is true," I called stepping to the sand, pulling off the tunic. "I wager he cannot!" called a large fellow, a peasant from north of the river. Rogue The peasant is a strong fellow. The Gorean peasant is a resolute, strong fellow, upright and stubborn, who prides himself on his land and his sovereignty. Slave Girl gorean_librarian@yahoo.com
