Brand of the
Forkbeard
The brand used by Forkbeard is not uncommon in the north, though there is less uniformity in Torvaldsland on these matters than in the south, where the merchant caste, with its recommendations for standardization, is more powerful.  All over Gor, of course, the slave girl is a familiar commodity.  The brand used by the Forkbeard, found rather frequently in the north, consisted of a half circle, with, at its right tip, adjoining it, a steep, diagonal line.  The half circle is about an inch and a quarter in width, and the diagonal line about an inch and a quarter in height.  The brand is, like many, symbolic.  In the north, the bond-maid is sometimes referred to as a woman whose belly lies beneath the sword.
