Hi,

What's the best way to reform bad slaves? Mostly those recently captured with high escape risk, angry and so on... I know I can throw then in a cell, but I am yet to understand exactly how to use it or if it's even possible to "pacify" a slave, other than going the domination route. I've been adding them to the household and selling the same day. I even got a captured thug that was mad at me (no idea what for...lol) but for some reason had 0 escape risk. And he tried to escape that night. I was lucky I got to him on time.

I give newly captured slaves a day off their first day in-house, two  days sometimes, and when I've start harvesting the flowers over at Mai Lynn's place I'll give newly captured slaves one as a gift. Immediately after capture take them to the diner and feed them but don't talk to them, and give then a $5 allowance if you can afford it. The next morning (1st day) give flowers and  the day off. There will still be some work to do, but that makes a good start -- and if they have traits compatible with your House then you'll be almost there already.

If your standing with catholic's is high and for females only a good move is to send her to the abbey. A few months there you'll have a much better behaved slave with a few better abilities.
