Words are the lifeline of Gorean roleplay!  Let's have a little fun with them!

Take the last letter of the Gorean word posted, then post a NEW Gorean word beginning with that letter.
(The word must be a Gorean word.)

Example:
     THARLARION
     The next post would be a word beginning with "N"......
     N - NEEDLE TREE
     ... and so on.   


Feel free to add a short description or quote that uses the word, if you wish!

Let's start with 

FLAMINIUM (a scarlet red, large-budded, five-petaled flower)

R - Rep "Rep is a whitish fibrous matter found in the seed pods of a small, reddish, woody bush, commercially grown in several areas, but particularly below Ar and above the equator; the cheap rep-cloth is woven in mills, commonly, in various cities; it takes dyes well and, being cheap and strong, is popular, particularly among the lower castes." — Raiders of Gor, pages 10-11.

Parsit- The men who had fished with the net had now cleaned the catch of parsit fish, and chopped the cleaned, boned, silverish bodies into pieces, a quarter inch in width. Another of the bond-maids was then freed to mix the bond-maid gruel, mixing fresh water with Sa-Tarna meal, and then stirring in the raw fish.--

Ram-ships- There are commonly about one hundred and twenty captains who form the council, sometimes a few more, sometimes a few less. Admittance to the council is based on being master of at least five ships. Surbus had not been a particularly important captain, but he had been the master of a fleet of seven, now mine. These five ships, pertinent to council membership, may be either the round ships, with deep holds of merchandise, or the long ships, ram-ships, ships of war." — Raiders of Gor

X - xenophile: a person who likes foreigners or things foreign. As far as Gor goes, that's how they like their slaves. The foreigner, the better. (Otherwise they practice xenophobia) Eventually, everything will become familiar so there's no telling how Goreans will handle THAT.

E - Eye "In their military organizations," I said, "six such beasts constitute a Hand, and its leader is called an Eye. Two hands and two eyes constitute a larger unit, called a 'Kur' or 'Beast,' which is commanded by a leader, or Blood. Twelve such units constitute a Band, commanded again by a Blood, though of higher rank. Twelve bands, Twelve bands, again commanded by a Blood, of yet higher rank, constitute a March." — Savages of Gor, page 22.
