I just wanted to mention something about slavery. The main ways one becomes a slave are:
being born into it
being sold into it
being captured into it
as a punishment for a crime
It is a legitimate form of commerce in the World and as such welcome in Crosspire. Your character can feel how they want about slavery, but it is actively supported by the Free State Militia and any aggression against slave caravans would be looked on very dimly.
