Talia Ravenwood

Dr. Torvald Ravenwood (Tarl for short) was a professor of Ancient History at Oxford, until he was transported to planet Gor by the Priest-Kings: - to be reunited with his father in the city of Koroba and trained as a warrior and a Jarl.

After a series of adventures serving his Home Stone, Captain Ravenwood, and his crew on The Black Herlit, were betrayed by Rence Farmers while on a mission hunting Kurri in the Vosk Delta, and given over to the Kurri. On a spaceship hovering over the marshes, they were subjected to an horrific experiment, designed to undermine the very basis of Gorean society: - a serum that will ensure gorean men can no longer count on remaining male after suffering capture and defeat.

Transformed into "exotic" kajira, the crewmen of The Black Herlit were sent to serve the Cu Sith gang in Port Kar, where Captain Ravenwood was renamed Bosk on account of the breadth she had retained in her shoulders, her large udder-like breasts, and the septum-ring with which she was fitted.

Here Bosk served as a tavern-slut, until she was rescued by her father, who had heard strange rumours concerning the fate of the Black Herlit. He brought what was left of his son to the city of Sulport, where his son lived as Talia Ravenwood, until sufficiently recovered in body and soul to begin adventuring again.

Talia, or "Tilly" for short, now travels the coast, seeking to track down her scattered crew, Most are too far gone to be helped, and she intends to keep these safe in a brothel, to be called the Black Herlit, in memory of their cursed ship.
