Slaves

Slaves are a valuable part of Ilaran society, being the lifeblood of its economy and the majority of its workforce. Specially trained, each slave is assigned a color in accordance with their individual talents. Slaves can be male or female, and are often prisoners.

Buying Process

 * Enslaved captives are brought to a Slaver, of which every major town has at least one.


 * From there, they are kept in cages until "broken"--that is, resigned to their fate and able to be trained.


 * Following this, they are trained in one of the four colors; certain few are selected for the fifth.


 * After sufficient training, the slaves are sold in auctions across Ilara, many of which are well-publicized affairs.
 * After this, the slave's life and quality thereof is entirely dependent on its owner. No guarantee of continued life can be made off auction grounds.

Regulations and Limits

 * 1) Slaves are defined as "conditional property" under Ilaran law.  This means that, should said property be destroyed (killed) for no valid reason, charges can be pressed on the owner.  Typically a minor charge, the outcome is most often a suspension of buying privileges.
 * 2) Owners are limited to two (player) slaves; NPCs are unlimited.
 * 3) Buying privilege may be rescinded entirely if it is judged to be in the best interest of the Empire.
 * 4) Conflicts relating to slaves are to be brought to the Tribunal.

Silk Colors
A slave's designation is signified by their "silk", an often very revealing garment that can easily be removed.

Domestic
Color: White

Slaves clad in white are considered domestics, used chiefly for tasks around their owner's house. Mainly virgins, these slaves are prohibited from any sexual liaison on pain of death.

Tavern
Color: Yellow

Slaves clad in yellow often work in taverns, where they serve patrons as if they were normal employees. They can be rented for the patrons' use, and the price of this is often included with a drink.

Pleasure
Color: Red

Slaves clad in a red silk are often whores, trained extensively in the art of giving pleasure. In many cases, a tavern owner will have one red silk to bring in more profit.

Assassin
Color: Black

A black-clad slave is the property of an Assassin. Collared slaves dressed in black are not to be touched.

Labor
Color: Blue

Labor slaves are generally owned by the Royal Trust. Their duties extend to working in Luna City's facilities.

Exotic
Color: Purple

Slaves clad in purple are often bred for a specific purpose or rare genetic trait. In some cases, however, the color purple is used to denote a favored slave in its owner's house.
