the 1 bow 1112 Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) - Slavery - Slavery is a pivotal aspect of Orcish culture. It appears barbaric and savage to most, yet to the Orcs its just their way of life. A slave is someone who is subjected to someone as property, the 'master' presiding ownership over them. This is either done willingly or in most cases, by force. A slave may be taken for a specific purpose eg; manual labour, they may be taken as a source of spite to intimidate an enemy party eg; POW's, or they may simply be taken at the disgression/pleasure of the specific Orc at hand. - Types of Slavery - Note, a slave can fit into multiple categories. Additionally a slave does not have to meet any of these criteria, and will simply do what the master Orc sees fit. - Warrior Slaves - Warrior Slaves serve several purposes. The first, to act as fodder in war. They will be stationed in the front lines with the vanguard and will fight along side Orcs. The second, is to fight against one and other in the arena for personal glory. Often the most successful warrior slaves earn their freedom in blood and battle. They are not however simply cast out onto the field or the sands, they are trained in the arts of Orcish combat, making them formidable foes and not to be underestimated. - Domestic Slaves - Domestic Slaves perform day-to-day mundane tasks that Orcs do not care for or have not the time to complete them. Many domestic slaves will cook and clean, keeping the Iron Uzg in good nick. Additionally they may also provide music in times of rituals or war, beating drums in unison or blowing war-horns in succession to intimidate the enemy. - Worker Slaves - Worker Slaves are the most valuable of their kind in the Iron Uzg, and are often in great abundance. They craft and build weapons, armour and structures with a finesse that Orc's themselves cannot, but they also simply transport heavy building materials such as logs or stone. A whip can always been seen close by where there are worker slaves. - Personal Slaves - Personal Slaves belong to a single Orc or Feroc and serve them and them alone. An Orc may have multiple. Personal slaves are at the whims of their masters, having to perform whatever task is demanded of them. It is not uncommon for Orcs and their personal slaves to have a friendly relationship and develop a trust for one and other, going so far as letting the slave tend to their lands and cubs. ----------------------------------OOC: IMPORTANT The last time slavery was in Orcish culture in ended horribly, turned many off Orcs and gave us a negative reputation we are still trying to shake. However I said from the beginning if I saw more domestic and casual RP from yall I would reintroduce it. Well, generally speaking, you've earned it. However, I will revoke slavery at a moments notice should I receive a lot of negative feedback. However there are OOC rules now in place to prevent negative RP and promote cooperation on both sides. They are currently few, but I will be adding to them. If these rules or guidelines are abused by 'slaves' ie those who are taken as slaves, I will abolish them and you'll be on your own 1. To become a long term or permanent slave, the slave must consent OOCly. This is not to say they have to consent to being taken as a slave however as that will halt RP, but they must agree to staying in the Uzg long term. 2. If the slave does not agree to staying in the Uzg, they will remain enslaved until literally all Orcs interacting with them have logged off. Then they may SS and RP having escaped. Of course, you may choose to kill them before hand. 3. No sex slaves. Edited October 16, 2015 by the 1 bow 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She shakes her head. "Well, now they have something else to fuss over. Maybe now I can work in peace." she murmurs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dtrik 330 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Dangren Starbreaker over hears some passing by orcs talk about the reintroduction of slavery in the Iron Uzg. He begins to contemplate about the elevated status a race could have if others were beneath it as slaves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
