Immediately go to the trade center, and buy the house. Go to the Border of the Fogs and run into Isabella, accept her and take her on as an assistant. Set her as assistant. Tell her to buy all the foods. Have her act as cook and maid as well. Go back to the real estate office, rent a Fiend Pit. Go back to the Border of the Fogs and the Smuggler's den. Buy a fiend. Train Isabella in Fiend Mating once a day until she masters it. Do this while you still don't have a slave. Eventually when that fiend gets to the largest size, Leviathan, give him to the guy in the Forums for the wizard's crown (a much needed artifact). This is something that takes months in game, so by the time you turn it in, you should be finishing your first slave. Go into town. Stop by the Slaver's guildhall. Buy a stethoscope. Go to the boutique, look at men's clothing. Buy the Aketon and the Wizard's Robes. Go to Mankiller's, buy a weapon (I prefer the katana to start). Go to the arena. Talk to Lantasa and have her train you in a special technique. Choose Roundhouse Kick, Battle Cry or Swift Strike (some of the better ones). Return every day until she will not teach you any more. Go to the arena, and get in some fights. Get used to the fight system. Depending on what your opponent is doing, your attack will either buff you, debuff them, or deal double damage. Get used to how combat works. The color of the attack also has NOTHING to do with the color hearts (a common confusion). If ANY of the hearts reach zero, you will lose. The first is health, the second is stamina and the third is morale. You will see that you hitting the enemy raises morale. You attacking will lower stamina. You getting hit will lower health. You can also "defend" which will raise stamina a bit. After a few days of fighting, you might be thinking "hey, I'm a slaver... shouldn't I go get a slave by now?!" Go to the auction, get a slave. Really, any will do, but best NOT to start with a Loli. Some are tougher than others, but the training is the same. Immediately get them checked out at the Medical Center in the Technosphere in the Serpent quarter. If she has anything, get it fixed, cured, scars removed, etc. Also, get her sterilized. Take her home. Wear the wizard robe. If you can, cast the Adverto Servili spell, do it, but you probably can't yet... so for now, go to the Outcast's section and to Uncle Bo's and get a Brand Tattoo. Go to the Necropolis and to Steel Rose. Buy a standard slave collar. Go home, equip the collar on the slave. Next, VERY important. Set some rules. I usually use: Bath Slave, Deny Orgasm, and Force Humility to start. You MUST set at LEAST 3 or you'll spoil her, and it'll accumulate every night. Soiling makes EVERYTHING harder. You absolutely do NOT want it. Also "Force Rules". Now, "Explain her position"... do this at the start of the day for the first three days. For bed, let her sleep on the bedroll. For food, give her dried food for now. Use the nutritionist for now until you get the hang of diets (and even when you do, you may still want to use them at times). ALL of this is the FIRST day with your slave. The Energy bars are VERY important. You NEVER want red stars in them. If your slave is at "-" or in the red, your day is over. Go to the next day. If not, read on. At the start of the next day. Don't forget to "Explain her position today". Next, cast Tremendio and Magna Magnifica. The first, if successful (don't worry if it's not) gives her a point if fear which in the immediate will help you train her. The second increases your aura's power, which helps with obedience. The second one will only last the day. Check her Sports and Fitness. If it's not S+, you need to get it there. It's the most important "first" thing you train since it controls the amount of energy your slave has. Check her "Endurance" (second down on the left). If it's Weakened, Feeble or Dying, click on "Supplements" as well until it gets to "Healthy", then turn them off. Always train her at least once in Sports and Fitness every day to keep it going up. If she still has energy, train her in Maid or Cook. Don't worry about anything else for now. With a little luck, she should have a positive "green" achievement because she did sports once, or cooked once, or cleaned once... give her a reward, and choose "Make a Gift->Clothes->Sundress"... this is VERY important and helps a LOT with training. Always make this the first reward you give her. If she's guilty, then start soft and yell at her. Sleep. Next day, do Tremendio and Magna Magnifica again and repeat until she earns her Sundress. When she has a Sundress, then she's at least capable of training. Spells are optional at this point, but keep them in mind, they're REALLY handy. More so than a lot of players give them credit. Keep training Sports and Fitness, Maid and Cook.... maybe after a week, branch into Nurse and Secretary. You'll start getting into the "habit" zone and she'll gradually lose her thorns of rebellion. For rewards, keep it simple at first. Give her chocolate. Let her spend time at the Hot Springs (takes a free energy) or if her Sports and Fitness is getting high and you have energy to spare, Garden of Gethsemane (it's really good to send her to the garden). Don't do "Spend time together" or "Erotic reward" until later. She hates you too much at this point. A GREAT reward is casting Delikicea on her. Mix up the rewards. Another good "early" reward is to Make a Gift->Clothes->Soft Slippers or the Plush Toy, these will help with training as well, but only get them if she does a 5-point reward. It's also good to first "Moral Encouragement->Promise a Reward" the day before, then buy her it the next day if she does well. After about a week and a half, you can start taking her on "Spend time together" to get her used to you and not hate you so much. Continue, continue... eventually, you'll get her to D+ rating. Now she should be ready to start in with the sex training. Start with the simple things like kissing, rubbing, blowjobs. Don't do penetration yet. First, get pretty good at blowjobs and get her built up here. When she's good at blowjobs, change the "rules" and turn off "Deny orgasm" and turn on "Behave Alarm" (she's used to sucking you off, so she won't have so much of a problem with it). Now do penetration, and watch her cum violently. Cumming makes her happy, and it's hard to stay angry at a you, even though you're a slaver and claims to own her when you're making her cum three or four times a day. Start giving her Erotic Rewards too. When she has 2 or 3 stars of devotion, switch her to fresh food. At another star, let her sleep in your bed. Hang out with her often, go to the restaurant and theater and beach. You'll have her worshiping the ground you walk on in no time. Your first slave, you may want to train her as a Gladiatrix (this is why you did not get a Loli) to earn money. If you get an "Arena Champion", you can give her to another guy hanging in the Forums for the Bull Ring (also a VERY much needed artifact since you'll never get tired with it). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Raw Ingredients Elysian Datura - Relaxes. Adds 1 mood, very slowly drains intelligence if used by slave. Kamarian Resin - Refreshes. Adds 1 energy Faeries' Pollen - Stimulant. Sets energy to 5, slowly drains strength with each use. Second dose in a day causes instant death if slaver and unconsciousness if slave. Essence Of Oblivion - Dulls pain and fear. Boosts mood, slowly drains strength with each use. Second dose in a day causes instant death if slaver and unconsciousness if slave. All can be consumed directly, but may have side effects. Potions are apparently safer. ----------------------------------------------------- Bacchus' Nectar Skill level - D/Pink Needs: Spring Water Kamrian Resin Faeries' Pollen Essence Of Oblivion Effect: Drunkeness - mood bonus, not stacking with drugs, no observable addiction chance Raises Arousal in combat - adds morale, removes the "severe pain", "weakness" and "stiffness" states. Gives the "fury", "adrenaline" and "distraction" states. Notes From the description when the potion is created: The imbiber will feel a surge of courage and joy. Very useful to raise a person's morale ------------------------------------------------------- Tonic Elixir Skill level - C/purple Needs: Strong Alcohol Kamrian Resin Faeries' Pollen Essence Of Oblivion Effect: Recovers strength - +1 energy point, stacking with massage in combat - recovers stamina and adds morale. Removes the "weakness" state. Gives the "acceleration" and "attention". Notes: Recipe is the same as for Bacchus' Nectar, except for the Basis "Abuse can lead to tragic consequences" -- Mystra ---------------------------------------------------------- Miracle Balm Skill Level - B/Blue Needs: Fog Fiend Mucus Kamrian Resin Faeries' Pollen Essence Of Oblivion Effect: Can be used outside of combat too but is less effective. Heals all wounds in combat, adds energy and morale, removes the "severe pain" state. Notes: Recipe is the same as for Bacchus' Nectar, except for the Basis ---------------------------------------------------------------- Aphrodisiac Skill level - C/Purple for normal, B/Blue for powerful Needs: Strong alcohol for normal/Fiend's mucus for powerful Elysian Datura Kamrian Resin Faeries' Pollen Effect: Stimulates Feelings Raises Arousal Notes: Strength varies with Basis Can't brew it with water ------------------------------------------------------------------ Water of Lethe Skill level - S+/Green for water based. Using stronger bases lowers required skill level: A for Alcohol, B for fiend's mucus. Needs: Any Base Elysian Datura Kamrian Resin Essence of Oblivion Effect: Clears aural stats - potentially useful for removing thorns of rebellion in new slaves. Can be also used for clearing spoiling and despair in emergency. Despite Mystra's description, the slave does not truly forget "everything" including skills or abilities; the potion merely clears aural stats. IT IS WORTH NOTING that as the potion does not directly affect ANYTHING but aural stats, it does NOT in fact clear thorns of rebellion directly. It merely resets the aura of the slave. Thus if the slave's nature and temperament (or other non-aural characteristics) are such that the slave naturally tends towards disobedience until aural influences like fear and taming correct that, then drinking waters of Lethe will in fact REVIVE all the thorns of rebellion by removing the aural influences which have suppressed them. If the slaver drinks it, it resets the Slaver's mood to calm, but as it does not affect skills etc, it seems to have no other effect on the slaver. Notes: Any basis will do "Imbiber will forget everything - be it good or bad" - Mystra "Dangerous" - Mystra -------------------------------------------------------------- Philtre Skill level - S+/Green Needs: Fog Fiend Mucus Elysian Datura Faeries' Pollen Essence of Oblivion Effect: Imbiber feels attraction to first person they see. Not strong, but persistent. adds a level of devotion only usable once per slave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Here's my method: Look for slave with best Temperament and Nature>Cast domini>Drink Water of Lethe>Drink Philtre>No rules,eats fresh food.>Train and endlessly reward(With sensual massages)>Take Pollen & repeat = S+ Slave. ez. Guidelines: Keep their mood ecstatic. Spam sensual massages w/o spoiling them. Sex when they are horny. KEEP FEAR & DESPAIR AT 0 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nah, not really. If nature and temperament is low you can raise them very quickly via coliseum fights to the acceptable levels, first two of which are very easy even for weak non-fighter slave. Temperament can be also raised through Delikacia spell once per day (which is very effective if you have highest mage skill) and constant orgasms. Asking slave to entertain you when she has open pride or better will also give minor increase to temperament. Golden cage, gardens and hot springs will raise nature very slowly. And not very effective, since they will eat her energy and require minimal energy to enter and also expensive. Sparring will raise both slowly if she wins. Tl;dr: make your slave fight in arena, make sure she wins and make her orgasm a lot and you will increase shittiest nature and temperament to moderate level in a week.
