[QUOTE="Mallus, post: 427091, member: 3887"] [b]OK, now back to fantasy...[/b] 1) Slavery isn't common in the main campaign area, being outlawed by the three of the four major city-states, and mostly outlawed in the fourth. It certainly still exists, but its not for labor. The decadant rich of one prominent city-state enjoy flouting the law by keeping "indentured servants" who have no chance of leaving their employ. Sexual slavery makes up the rest of trade, usually facilitated by a particular drug {soulsdeath} that deadens human will {anyone caught possessing it assumed to be a slaver}. 2) Rape.. Can't bring myself to DM that.... exactly. One plotline featured a PC's wife who was assualted telepathically by a powerful, aristocratic mage while at the Grand Opera. The PC's saw the result of the attack, but none of the details... The PC's only got a few sketchy particulars from 2 other women who were similarly attacked. 3) The Amber House, an asylum for the mentally ill children of the wealthy figured prominently into one plotline. Nefarious mages found a use for children afflicted by a certain kind of catatonia, essentially using the insdies of their skulls as undetectable places for magical experimentation... 4) War? Only a Cold War between demons from outside the universe and sentient races of the world who are convinced that a force required to destroy the demons would also destroy the very fabric of the world...
