The series features several sentient alien races. The most important to the books are the insectoid Priest-Kings and the huge, sharp-clawed, predatory Kurii, both spacefarers from foreign star systems. The Priest-Kings rule Gor as disinterested custodians, leaving humans to their own affairs as long as they abide by certain restrictions on technology. The Kurii are an aggressive, invasive race with advanced technology (but less so than that of the Priest-Kings) who wish to colonize both Gor and Earth. The power of the Priest-Kings is diminished after the "Nest War" described in the third book and the Priest-Kings and Kurii struggle against each other via their respective human agents and spies. [7] However, when people apply the rules of a fictional world to real life they can find themselves engaging in truly bizarre practices. Slaves in Gor are marked with a brand: kejiras are marked with a “kef,” a stylised K. The kef is commonly tattooed on female Goreans with some going as far as acquiring an actual brand.The personal blogs where Goreans have posted pictures of these brands both give outsiders a glimpse of this radical lifestyle and help normalize extreme behaviors to others who might be considering getting more involved in the lifestyle.

Is it honor and the codes, I wondered, which separate us from animals, or, rather, is it they which bring us closer to the innocence of the animals,” reads one part of Swordsmen of Gor. You are first girl on the roof," he said. "The work-master can arrange matters differently later, as he might please." Indeed, there is a Gorean saying to the effect that any woman who relishes a compliment is in her heart a slave girl. She wants to please. Most Gorean men would not think twice about collaring a girl who responds, smiling, to compliments. It is regarded as right to enslave a natural slave.

I knew that Chloe was not happy that our first girl should be a barbarian. Indeed, I had gathered, from remarks by our Gorean chain sisters in the quarters, that such an appointment was rare. Please Master,' she said 'Take pity on me. Take pity on the miserable needs of a slave girl.''You are not mine " I told her, " You are a pretty little thing, but I do not own you.' The shape of the chain and claw; occur in the lairs of Kurii agents on Earth; chain-and-claw brand signifies, of course, slavery and subjection with the compass of the Kur yoke. Though not a true brand, this is a way of marking a slave girl with an invisible stain; a form of espionage practiced by agents of the Kurii. The welfare of their fellow caste members is more important to a Gorean than their own well being. In return for their loyalty, they can expect protection and care if they ever need it. If they try to leave their caste without the necessary and hard-to-acquire consent, they become outlaws—people of no identity and no worth.A switch was put in the hands of Eta. She stood over me. I put down my head. She did not strike me. I looked up at her. I realized then that she was first girl in the camp, and that I must obey her, that she had been empowered to set me tasks and duties. Suddenly I feared her. Stop staring at the handsome master," hissed the first girl. "He is not for you! See what he has chained behind his couch! That is the sort of slave he can command! Why would such a man want one such as you? Now, serve, serve, lazy slut!" Release her," she snapped to the girl to my left, who was holding me, which command was instantly obeyed. I then gasped, as though in pain, and, momentarily, hung again in the manacles, my body partly on the ground, my wrists up, a foot or so from the pole. Then, as though with great effort, my head down, I struggled to a kneeling position, and knelt behind and below the pole, my wrists raised, on either side of my head, held in the manacles.
