Slavery, in one form or another, has been present among the goodly races on the Mainland since at least since the [[Age of Demigods]], though ancient epics from the [[Time of the Eight]] and the [[First War]] describe the use of slaves by servitors. Some sages theorize the goodly races, in fact, adopted the practice from servitors. In the earliest days after the [[Battle of Sacrifice]], slavery among humans was generally enacted as a punishment for debt or criminal activity, while the Dwarves instead subjugated weak servitor races.

When [[Hadrian Ubrekt]], king of the [[Ubrekt (city-state)|City-State of Ubrekt]], conquered the neighboring city of [[Tyros]], he enslaved and force-migrated most of its residents, leading to a fundamental change in the nature of the practice. Within half a century, slavery had become integral to the life of the [[First Empire|empire]], so much so that when Hadrian's son, [[Diocelt Ubrekt|Diocelt]], laid siege to [[Crad]] in 2797 [[BI]], between one-third and one-half of his army was slave levy.

Slavery was most widely practiced during the [[First Empire]], and played no small part in the ascent of Ubrekt over its rivals, but the practice lead to a great number of uprisings, and led to a general sense of paranoia among the Ubrekti nobility that, in part, explains some of their more bizzare and cruel behaviors.
