Talunas of Gor, hunting predators of the jungles, rumours tell they are there, scarcely are they ever seen, their fair bodies moving swiftly through the woods, the tips of their spears, the golden ornaments on their arms glinting, once you ever encounter a Taluna you are doomed!
BEWARE! Gorean from Port Schendi daring to enter the dark water dripping jungles, LISTEN to the drums and the sudden silence of the screeching monkeys overhead, YOU are an alien here and do not belong!
you are SEEN! SMELLED! HEARD! are there eyes watching you? did you hear swiftly running little feet?..they eyes of the panther?...the slithering snake on your path? so small yet so poisonous?...the venomous spider in the branches overhead?...did you find their camp?...the fireplace only lukewarm?...seems they are gone! the movement behind the bush! Talunas? or only the black gleaming panther on soft paws?
mystic rituals, tattoos, piercings, kuruu…the jungles are full of secrets…as are the Talunas of Gor, only scarcely described in the books (see below).
anything that is weak is prey…even the black Ubar Bilar Hurun, the tattooed giant has never found us…the rainforests cover tracks swiftly…
we ARE our jungles!
we choose IF we want to battle
we choose WHERE we want to battle
we choose WHEN we want to battle
remember: Taluna tribes are jungle tribes! our rp is VASTLY different from any other rp!
just to give you a feeling for it, I enclosed tribal pictures from the rainforests in west papua.
like large predators of the north, the tribe moves through a vast area from camp to camp, hunting, moving again a few days later…never here, never there, our possessions carried on our bodies, a fireplace and a leaf thatched hut to be easily set up and left behind on the move…a hunting tribe…the vast jungles are our fortress, the rain our allie, the steaming heat our dress, the ash our makeup…
swiftly running feet in the jungles: when you hear us, its too late! surprise is our allie: SCREAM! when you are pounced and claws and teeth rip your body!!! a panther may leave you, a Taluna will not! and PREY it is us and not a Mamba of Gor!
HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! I!! SEE!! YOU!!!!
