Imperial Slaves
Produced by: Agricultural
Consumed by: All
Only legal on Imperial worlds or dictatorships and patronage style governed markets.

Slavery is an important part of Imperial Society, providing labour for the Empire and a safety net for its citizens. Many Imperials will choose to sell themselves into a fixed period of slavery rather than face the embarrassment and dishonour of living with a debt.
Master Chefs*
Master Chefs are selected based on genetic markers that tend to favour an aptitude for the culinary arts. Little is known about them except that they are kidnapped as children and then trained under rigorous conditions to bring out their genetic cooking potential. The use of Master Chefs is illegal in most Federal and Alliance systems, but is regarded as a sign of high status in many Imperial systems. Many anti-slavery protest groups have tried to free Master Chefs from their life of culinary bondage, yet due to their training, most return of their own free will to serve. Theirs is a life of servitude - they know nothing but to cook.
Slaves
Unregulated slavery is illegal in most parts of the galaxy.

Bonded men and women. Almost universally illegal and shunned by most civilised nations. Great efforts have been made to stamp out this trade in misery, however a few markets remain open.
