Anyone ever been "scourged"?

[tr65]

In his new book "Broken Prey" John Sandford describes a victim that has been scourged and then her throat was cut. Pretty gruesome stuff. He decribes scourged as flogging a person with a metal wire. Anyone ever experienced this sort of thing or administered this sort of thing to a pain slut? It sounds very different and very dangerous.

 

[AppleBiter]

Uhh, nope. Can't help ya' there.

 

[tealsphynx]

yeah that sounds out of the safe SANE consentual thing, mostly sane...that could do some serious tissue damage. just my $.02

 

[Bikewer]

The history of torture details a variety of whips/implements designed to cause severe damage to the point of flaying the victim. The Scourge used by the Romans (notoriously on JC, but in common use as well) was a multi-thonged whip with metal bits tied into the lashes.

Such things were common throughout the middle ages, some being designed to kill the victim by literally removing large areas of skin.

Not the sort of thing you'd want other than perhaps as a prop....

I think I'm gonna pass on the scrouge. I'm sure that somewhere I heard you need flesh to live.

LOL, closest I have come is beatings with those lovely wire brushes you find in the hardware department. As I'm sure some of you saw from the pics I posted here of the results part way through the session, there is a lovely supply of blood as the flesh is broken and/or removed. The downside was that the next day apart from a crust of healing on my butt, there was no pain remaining and also a need to buy a new brush as the old one was noticeably bloodstained.

Jeepers!

It just breaks the superfical (near the surface) capillary bed. Those caps heal very quickly. It ain't that bad. Doesn't even hurt that bad too, at least in my exp.

Seems like it could be infectious if misused though, you know? So I would think a good supply of alcohol wipes would be key. Conscientious aftercare is my favorite part of a good scene.

LOL, you might have had smeone who had a lighter pounding motion than the Domly One here...believe me, it was not just surface scraping and was healing for over a week, just not overly painful aftera night's rest....and the blood on the brush went at least halfway up the metal spikes. Being as they are so cheap he decided it was safer to buy new than try and clean this one and use it again.

Easily infectious but he made sure there was plenty of good during and aftercare. He treated it after the first part of the session, then continued a little more, then flogged hard and fast until it was a shiny bloody mess (unfortunately the pics taken of that were too blurred ...must have been his excitement ), then we did more cleansing which was repeated again the next day.

F is a most safety minded and fastidious Gent, I have no doubt. And caring for that which is his, to boot.

It is such a good thing to be clean.

Lemon juice, I have heard will take the stains out of the most stubborn items.

I think you're having too much fun thinking of this. You must be getting better.

So will Hydrogen Peroxide, and you get that "bubbly thing" going on to boot ... oh wait, i'm thinking of it poured on open cuts to "get the dirt out" ... http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-8/363868/twisted.gif

LOL, I am sure people think we are strange as there are little bottles of Peroxide in the kitchen, living room, bathroom, and bedroom right beside the bed. Then of course there are the bottles of Betadine, though not as many throughout I don't think.

Be careful how you use the peroxide. I used it on a spot on my leg and now have been to wound care for over a year and a half trying to get it to heal closed. Peroxide is damaging to the skin.

Great for taking out blood stains though, and killing bacteria. Graceanne, this might clean up the "used" brush for you. But you might want to dip it in alcohol or a bleach rinse before you use it again.

Um, don't know why you're addressing me. I've never done anything with a brush. Well nothing like that, at least. I think you mean catalina.

Frankly, I'm on autoimmune suppresants. A stubbed toe merits a trip to the ER, cause I might not heal. A sliver is a big deal cause I might (and have) get blood poisoning from it. We have to be very very careful about leaving more than bruises, and they're risky in themselves.

I read in a thread a while back about a more tamer type of scourge for more sensational pain. Basically, it was a multi-tailed whip with the tails tied in knots as to give a bit more random sting to it, making the sub less prepared for where it is going to sting. At least, that's the impression I get from that.

He has one of those, I love it on my back (but not as hard as he likes to do it ) it really works at releasing tension and getting shoulder knots loosened, a bit like a massage.

I have found he needs to have room to move around me otherwise the knotted tails land in similiar places each time, so not something for those times when space is limited.

Ideally I would be handcuffed hands above my head, standing upright or on a narrow bed/table that he could walk around 360 degrees.

It doesn't come close to what I thought was 'scourged'. Even 'tame scourged' as it doesn't remove skin and to me hurts less than some other implements.

I thought scrouged was what Cataline described, some sort of flaying of skin that removes skin and causes bleeding.

I never want to go there

 

[Xelebes]

Well, using the scourge is designed to slowly torture someone to death - which is not the aim in BDSM. Somethings, we just have to do without those things.

 

[Iron Bear]

Scourging is a method of execution by torture. It is not intended for the victim to enjoy it, or survive it.
