While in the great age of computers and the internet, one would think that the bartering and selling of slaves would be done electronically. For two reasons this is not so.
1: Not all slaves are catalog-order Anthros. Some are Angels and Demons and such and have been imprisoned for some crime or another. And yes, there are a few, VERY few, humans here. the concept of a debtors prison is alive and well.
2: The idea of an open market is still prefered much like the way one buys a car from a dealership.
3: yeah, there's a third one, so sue me. Having it done over the internet impedes the mingling of player-characters from interacting in a common eviron.

For those whose characters don't have the liberty of walking around freely, there is the slave market. Consisting of a very large furnished warehouss and surrounding lot, it is designed to accommodate the occupants. The beleif is, that you were selling a product, and you want to sell a good product. Another beleif being that if fortunes went wrong, you could wind up being in the cell. Humans did have that problem with spending too much on credit...
So most of the slaves and servants-to-be-indentured were kept in the nice climate controlled builing, being kept in cells much like prison cells, except with a modesty barrier for the toilet, and on the whole, furnished to be comfortable. A bed instead of a cot, a decent sink, and a small table for whatever the occupant wanted. The lights came from industrial halogen tubes in the ceiling covered by a translucent white plastic, gently lighting up the whole complex. There would be a plaque on the bars depicting the various attributes and design spefifcations (if a company made anthro) and your crimes (if criminal). Note that for those whose crimes are too henious in nature, they are put to death.

Thanos paced within hir cell rather impatiently, hir tail flicking occasionally in frustration. Hir wings were spread wide, taking up a decent amount of the space in hir cell as shi paced, and the darker blue and black of hir eyes swirled rather rapidly among the icy blue. Finally sighing, shi made hir way to hir bed and took a seat. Shi'd been unclaimed for so long and was beginning to doubt anyone would want hir.

Vox lay on his cot staring up at the cealing. his tail swishing back and forth slowley to pass time. He was new to this facility, to the area even but as far as he knew this was by far the nicest place he had stayed, cell wise of corse. he had beed here for what was it now 5 days, a week? he had lost count. His fins perked up, someone was pacing inpatiantly in the cell next to his. The pacing eventually stoped and the person sat on their bed. Vox gave a light nock on the wall, "Hey! i'm new here, name's vox. how long have you been here?" He wasn't sure if the cell dweller would respond, but that was just his nature, try to make friends now for future help and company. It never worked for him, but he never gave up hope.

"Good enough sir." he said to the man a straight expression on his face. Well at least i have a shot at getting out of this dump he thought. He stood up to his total 7'2ft. just to let the man get an idea for what he was going to recieve out of buying him.

Night growled at the size of him but since he was working for Zienna, he nodded. "Well then i'll guess you'll have to do besides working with the tigers will bring out any problems you have anyway. Cat will mold you into what ever she has plans for you." Night went to pay for the dragon and argued out a price. Still his wallet was empty. "Come dragon I hope you don't the wilderness." Night moved towards the exit.

Vox kept quiet throught the bardering, he never got involved in the transaction diputes. As the man walked out the door Vox followed behind, a gleen of happiness flashed across his face when he walked out of the containment area, if only for a second before disappearing. Vox'd ear fins pirked at the word wilderness, he loved the outdoors. "Not at all sir." he replied with a black tone. The hole time he was suppredding a chuckle, working for someone named Cat, who worked with Tigers, more cats... he found the idea slightly humorous for some reason.

Kibe was roughly thrown into his new cell and the door shut behind him. He whimpered and curled up into a ball.

The gruff slaver that was in charge of delivering the 'tenants' to their holding cells departed after locking the door. "Forgive the rough treatment," he said before leaving, no ounce of remorse in his tone, "But trying to run away like that is bad for business. You just wind up hurting yourself and our image."

Kibe didn't reply. Cut off from freedom before he could truely enjoy it's taste. Even during the short time he was free, some people he passed gave him cold stares of digust. It was all he wanted, he cared not if people shunned him, he just didn't want to be a slave. He curled himself up tighter and gavea low whimper.

Thanos felt as if shi had been locked in hir cell forever. Even the one visitor shi'd seen had not stopped at hir cell for long. Shi had taken to gouging slashes in the wall, one for each day shi'd been there, with hir sharp claws. Shi'd already lost count of how many slashes shi'd put there.
