Though they are but humans, there are some Goreans who have elevated them to the status of legendary creatures.   "In the legends of others, they appear as blond giants, breathing fire, shattering doors, giants taller than trees, with pointed ears and eyes like fire and hands like great claws and hooks; they are seen as savages, as barbarians, as beasts blood-thirsty and mad with killing, with braided hair, clad in furs and leather, with bare chests, with great axes which, at a single stroke, can fell a tree or cut a man in two." (Hunters of Gor, p.257)   Unfortunately, the books do not state which Goreans feel this way though it seems most likely that it would be those Goreans who live far from Torvaldsland and thus have not actually met a Torvaldslander.
