Slave hunters
Slave hunting is a well-established occupation in Ikaanos, providing the republic and the great houses with a constant stream of cheap workers. They're also a vital supplier for the growing entertaiment industry.
Slave hunters often work in unsion with slave trainers, hunting specific targets for a chosen patron. Certain landowning slave hunters also act as slave trainers as a way of cutting out the middleman.
Captured slaves
The MC and his crew are able to capture slaves in combat or through special quests/POIs. Captured enemies are called Shackled slaves before being processed at a market/home location.
The MC can hold a maximum of his Party (+1) shackled slaves. A lonely MC can thus hold two slaves before being forced to process them.
A combat enemy has to be Incapacitated in order to be claimed as a slave. Using certain weapons increases the chance of incapacitating an enemy while others, like coils or plasma rifles, almost guarantee that the enemy ends up dead.
