Slaver

Slavery is a FOnline: Reloaded feature that allows you to capture NPCs and force them to help you. By then, they act pretty much like mercs. However, unlike mercs, your slaves can't handle a lot of weapons, and are less skilled. Besides this, you can sell your slaves to get caps, and set up a real slaver business. A good thing with mercs and slaves is they never try to escape.

You can trade (give) slaves to other players.

To become a slaver

The slaver perk that you receive when you're marked as a slaver forever.

Being a slaver is the first requirement to be able to enslave people. Once you are a slaver, you'll be marked forever as one with a big, nice tattoo in the middle of your face. It has both advantages and drawbacks. Please note that if you don't have the slaver perk that Metzger will give you, you can't enslave people.

Joining the Business

Just talk to Metzger, the Den's leader. He is in the top-eastern house in the town, surrounded by his guards. Ask him to tell you about his life and the place where he is located, and then, there you go! "I want to be a slaver." You'll get your Slaver Tattoo and a nice special perk that allows you to enslave, but makes you unable to forget you're a slaver. Useful, isn't it?

Requirements:
There is no level requirement for becoming a slaver, however you cannot become one with less than 4 Intelligence. Mentats can help you with this, though.

Positive side

As a slaver, you will be able to...

• Take the Town Control of the Den
• Enslave NPCs, if you have charisma too
• Go on Slaveruns to earn xp and caps

Negative side

Being a slaver...

• Some NPCs will refuse to talk with you, for example merchants in Modoc and Klamath.
• The ncr anti slaver campaign is not tied to the perk but your rep. So a cathedral reset negates this table.
• Your reputation will change according to the table below:

Enslaving

Requirements

To enslave, you will need :

• Some rope, one per NPC to enslave.
• Some healing stuff (First Aid, Stimpak or Healing Powder skill etc.). Note: Weak Healing Powder doesn't work.

In current system all character can have 2 slaves beside those who took the perk Loner or Good natured. For each mercenaries and companions you have on your side you get an extra room for a slave.

How to ?

To enslave someone you need him to be knocked out. The best way to do it is to make his hit points below 0 (Between -20 and 0 a character is knocked out). So shoot at NPCs carefully, avoid to kill them. Once your future slave is knocked out, left click on him and choose the bag icon, then the rope in your inventory :

• If you achieved to make him a slave, you'll see the message "He will make a fine slave". Heal your slave and talk to him.
• If you failed at enslaving him or can't, then you'll see another message : "You failed to enslave".

You can't enslave any NPC, only some. See below for which ones...

Selling your slaves

Once you have enslaved people, and once they follow you, you can earn caps by selling them to notorious slavers :

• Ashdown in Raiders base will buy slaves.
• Metzger in Den will buy them.
• Vortis in NCR (Top-left corner of screen) will buy them too.

Prices vary a lot, but the common female slave will be bought for 650 caps, and male for 400 caps while children are taken for 200 caps.

You also get +6 reputation with Slaver's Guild for every slave you sell.

About slaves leveling

All kind of slaves should level up now.

NPCs that can be turned into slaves

Not all NPCs can be turned into slaves, and most of them can't use a lot of weapons. The following board will help you to get informations about it. A slave that has, for example, his Melee weapon in hand won't be able to use a rifle, because he'll firstly attack with its Melee weapon.

Bootlegger (Male)		Near Redding, caves.	Knives, hammers, grenades and rifles.	The fact that he can handle a rifle makes him useful. However he's better melee, throw or Hand to Hand fighter. If only bootlegger was tougher.
