((First Advanced RP, don't hit me, please!))
The Plot
Slavery. The most depraved trade of them all, it's legal in this world and there's no action to stop it, sure, there are other trades, jewels, alcohol, everything you could imagine can be bought, but slavery is the most profitable, there are slaves for everything, from teaching children and sewing to driving horse drawn carts and tending farms and when a person can't pay their bills, their taken from their house, their family with them, they're split up and taken across oceans and land and then they're put to work doing whatever their masters want.
They don't care what happens to the slaves, were one to be raped and become pregnant they would but have another slave after nine months and the world would continue as if nothing had happened. Their spirits are broken and some have gone mad, but nobody cares, they are still used just the same. They have tattoos on their faces and bodies to show who owns them, the coat of arms of a family printed upon the flesh of a slave simply means that family owns them.
To those that traffic in the trade they are but items and objects, useful to a degree, but otherwise nothing but wastes of space. And this is their story.

OOC
Well, here we go again! Another Asbestos roleplay! Now, with this roleplay, we'll be taking the positions of anyone. That's right.
Anyone you like!
You can be a slave, a slave-trader, someone who hates slavery, the head of a rich family, a pirate captain with her mind set on only serving herself, a manipulative daughter, a cast out son, an old man, a quick-minded thief, a baker, a butcher, a candlestick maker (Hahaha, no, but seriously, you could be), a slow-thinking brute, an angry innkeeper,
anyone at all!
Well, this roleplay will be based around the daily lives of whoever we decide to play as, I plan for the slaves to eventually take back their freedom by force with the help of anyone who cares for them, but that will have to depend on your actions, after all, they would have to unify and such to do so. But let's not get too far ahead of ourselves, eh?

The world.
We'll start in the large port town of Adofaer on the continent of Aethen, the great northern port, famous for its jewels and assorted strange magical items, these include, but are, of course, not limited to; flowers that never wilt, blades that never dull and amazingly beautiful perfumes, to the south of here, in the middle of the ocean we have a scattering of isles that must be traversed by any trying to head to the other continents, these are known as the Fairy Islands, they're far from fairy-like though, as they tend to attract pirates and serpents and other such monstrosities that plague the seas.
To the South-East of the Fairy Islands we have Eska, another large continent, covered in port towns, just like Aethen, but the main port town here is known as Haera, it is renowned for its fine alcohols, healing drugs and silks.
To the West of the Fairy Islands is yet another large continent, this one smaller than the others but in no way less grand, this land is known as Kerdrim, the main port of this continent is known as Lataeu, they are famous for their amazing foods, good slaves and the quantity of fish that live in their waters.

A few rules
Well, the time has come to lay down the rules, here they come;
1. No powergamin' an' nay god-modin' neither.
2. If you've got another character's permission to do something, for example, auto hit or such, make sure you note it at the bottom of the post.
3. Post your character sheets in the OOC and wait for them to be approved by myself.
4. Try not to be difficult, if I ask you to change something it's because you've done something I'm not going to allow, thank you.
5. Have some fun, after all, that's what we're all here for!
6. While this
is a fantasy roleplay, I will
not tolerate magic abilities other than, perhaps, the slight healing spell or snapping your fingers to light a fire, or mixing the sugar into your tea with light telekinesis, this is not a magic heavy world, sorry mages.
7. You may control many characters, a whole family, a two person group, but I think I'll put the limit on no. of characters at five.
8. If, at the start of each post, or between changing characters, you could note, in bold text, the island you're on and the place you're at, it'd be great, thanks. E.g;
"
Lataeu, Kerdrim, Serpent's Breath Tavern,
