    In the northern forests of Gor, the Panther Girls, or Forest Girls, live fiercely independent lives. These women, often former free women or escaped slaves, reject the constraints of Gorean society. They wear the skins and teeth of panthers they hunt with skill. The panther girls form tribes, they survive by hunting and trading captives for supplies like steel arrow tips and candy. Captured men are enslaved, marked with a degradation stripe, and sometimes used to satisfy the Panthers’ needs before being traded. Panther Girls perform ritual dances, such as the Moon Dance and Spear Dance. Despite their independence, they occasionally form alliances with Gorean society for mutual benefit
