Benefits of Becoming a Licensed Slaver
The slaver may use merchandise collars instead of standard slave collars. These take a single equipment slot and show the slave is for sale.
Slavers do not pay the 10 Mh / month ownership fee on merchandise slaves.
Slaves sold by Slavers are waived the normal waiting week.
Licensed slavers may sell slaves via the auctions at a reduced fee.
Licensed slavers may charge slave owners for enhanced training of their slaves.
Licensed slavers are likely to gain higher prices for their products as these slaves are assumed to be well trained prior to sale.
The ISA assumes a licensed slaver is experienced enough to be able to retain his property by force but may step in for serious assaults or thefts. (OOC Note: Slavers are expected to be level 5 or above and able to handle minor combat for themselves)
The ISA will assist in the recapture of slaves who escape or who are stolen.
Restrictions and Responsibilities
Slavers may never capture registered slaves or the merchandise slaves of other licensed slavers.
Personal slaves of the slaver must be registered as such and wear a full collar. Merchandise slaves that are kept for long periods with no attempt at sale will be considered personal slaves and their staus changed.
Merchandise slaves may be kept for a maximum of six weeks (real time not game time). After that they must be sold, freed, or taken as personal slave.
Merchandise slaves must be held by the Slaver for a minimum of two weeks before being sold, freed, or taken as a personal slave.
Slavers should not turn down reasonable offers to buy their merchandise (subject to OOC consent) without a good reason.
Slavers are expected to train their slaves regularly in either public or private scenes. Neglecting slaves can lead to a loss of license and the removal of merchandise slaves.
Slavers accept official scrutiny of their activities and understand their license may be revoked if they fail to behave adequately. No refunds are given.
This is not something currently, but rather something that has always been.#1. It is currently cheaper to find and collar your own slave as a player.
... The need is there because that is how the empire knows who is legally owned and can enforce the rules laws and offer aid if needed.No need to have a third (or would it be fourth?) party present to complete the collaring.
... not sure why you think there is not benefits but again Seeing how little slavers are used I would think maybe the idea of slavers would be the thing that could be done away with before doing away with the rules that allows the ISA to do its job for the collared slaves and their owners.No benefits to buying from a slaver, unless the slaver doesn't actually perform any training and just sells a slave within the first week of merchandise collaring it.
Second.. the waiting week is waived already if a slaver sells a slave.
Third... Slaves pay for their license because they make money when they sell a slave. Also it helps the ISA to keep records on who is holding valid slavers license.
Fourth... slavers can already charge extra for extra training if the buyer wishes to pay for it.
if the slave was trained in the basics at the ISA and again this was not wanted by the players because again..they wish to train there own slaves their way. Saying a person cant not grab and train and enslave their own slave IMO would take away one of the very corner stones of this game and the ideas that went to building it.
As far as the cost to register a slave that is bought by a slaver, That is something between the new owner and the Empire and has nothing to do with the slaver.
I don't think free slavers license is a good idea because then everyone would suddenly become a slaver and the ISA has no way of controlling, helping, and enforcing anything when suddenly everyone is a slaver.
- In response to "No need to have a third (or would it be fourth?) party present to complete the collaring... The need is there because that is how the empire knows who is legally owned and can enforce the rules laws and offer aid if needed.
I have to say, I've always enjoyed training my own, true enough, I've never gone through a slaver because I've never had one present me a slave in a manner that IC'ly appealed.
