I have in mind a few Indoril planning related topics that, among others, I'd like to see discussed during the coming Skype meeting. These are based on the Indoril Planning document: (I hope to be able to attend myself, but can't say for sure yet) Geography - Saint Llothis - Will it happen? Where? Ho...

I've been working on getting together an Indoril Master planning for a while now. It’s basically a summary of (almost) everything which has been discussed concerning House Indoril. The document is quite self-explanatory, so I’ll just go ahead and post it. Discussion is encouraged. Swif...

I doubt it any Dunmer would allow their slaves to have slaves. Though your facts are interesting, slaves in Morrowind are at the bottom of the barrel and treated accordingly. Other Houses may see it differently, but Indoril slaves for example, are exclusively property of nobles, just like land. Perh...

I'd say yes. A slave is property of the owner, so all that comes out of it is righteously also property of that same owner. When an African slave who was property of a European owner got pregnant (of the child of the owner or otherwise), that child was born into enslavement by definition.

I'm trying to understand Indoril law. Ordained law specifically. The identity of the judges depends on the jurisdictional level of the case. In broad terms, Morrowind's law has two distinct levels.

Re: Slaves (present state & future affiars)

to ALEX25 & Telvayn Since the advent of the Third Era, slavery was illegal throughout the Empire, but protected by law in Morrowind. This exception was granted by Tiber Septim in the Armistice of 2E 896 as a concession to the DUNMER, who saw the use of slaves as their ancient right. -the unoffi...
