Buy slaves?! We do not take slaves here in the holy lands! Such barbaric practises are not tolerated within the teachings of Okran. You cannot buy beings for your own selfish pursuits! A pure blood must take it upon himself never to take advantage of others, no matter what their misfortunes, no matter what their background!

–Paladin, trying to make a distinction between "standard slavery" and their practiced form of "Rebirthery"

Rebirth is a slave town where The Holy Nation sends corrupted beings so that they can become worthy enough to reincarnate as a Human, or otherwise the humans that have committed crimes against Okran and are sent here for punishment and repentance. Skeletons are not enslaved here, as The Holy Nation does not consider them to have a soul. It is located in an eponymous region north of main Holy Nation territory.

Players can sell or donate characters into slavery at this location. Non-player characters, be they Fishmen, Cannibals or Dust Bandits will be accepted for a token price of 500 cats if the player specifically asks for compensation otherwise donating will yield +1 reputation with The Holy Nation. Players can also free enslaved characters from their shackles, and as with all freed slaves there is a chance they will join the player's squad as they leave the area, depending on their personality.

You can start your game in Rebirth with two non-Skeleton characters if you choose "The Slaves" game start.

Trivia[]

  • Considering that a vast majority of the slaves in Rebirth are Sheks, it is likely that many of them are captured prisoners of war from the Shek Kingdom or rogue bandits such as Berserkers and Kral's Chosen.
  • If the player was enslaved by The Holy Nation or the Slavemongers, they will be sent here.
  • Although lore-wise Skeletons are not supposed to be enslaved, gameplay mechanics would still make the HN enslave or imprison any Skeletons nearby.
