Equatorial Rainforests
There are jungles on the equator near the city of Schendi. There
are many villages in the jungles and most of their inhabitants do not speak Gorean. They speak a number of different inland
dialects. Fishing is a major source of livelihood for many. Bila Huruma is a black Ubar who has united the six ubarates of
the southern shore of Lake Ushindi. The
Ukungu villages lay to the northeast on the coast. It is a country of coastal villages speaking the same or similar dialects.
The central village is Nyundo. Talunas, pygmies and cannibals also inhabit the jungles. The rainforest is also the home of
a myriad of wildlife.
Forests of Northern Gor
This is the largest forest
area on Gor. It covers hundreds of thousands of square pasangs. The most typical tree is the lofty, reddish Tur
tree that may grow to two hundred feet or more. They are north of Laura and no one knows how far east they go.
They extend north to Torvaldsland, past the northern ridges of the Thentis Mountains. The
forests are home to various outlaws, forest people and panther girls.
