Slavery Is a Special Kind of Evil, so let's liberate the slaves! There are three ways to do this: Rescue someone else's slaves, usually by force. Free some slaves you already own or buy some slaves specifically to free them. Or have the slaves free themselves. This is the Supertrope of Gladiator Revolt. Turned Against Their Masters is also a rough sci-fi version of this trope, though usually a bit less idealistic. Examples are sorted by type of Slave Liberation. Slave Liberation is a likely result of being Made a Slave, but if it's combined with Happiness in Slavery or Property of Love it can easily devolve into Activist-Fundamentalist Antics. Like Releasing from the Promise, it may lead to some fraught moments about whether the freedman will continue to work with the erstwhile master. It rarely if ever happens that the slaves want to get full revenge by enslaving their former master(s), probably because this isn't a story idealistic authors like to write. Contrast Sympathetic Slave Owner and Hero's Slave Harem, where the main character keeps slaves and is still (usually) supposed to be heroic. |

Tooth and Tail: Late in the game, the Slave Race of pigs disappear almost entirely from the face of the world, with only The Civilized having any left at all. Come the last mission, and we discover they didn't go extinct — they were in hiding and waiting for the pig-eaters to weaken themselves sufficiently. At the end of the final mission the pigs will emerge en masse and slaughter the survivors, achieving their liberation (it is technically possible to survive the waves of pigs until the end of the mission but the game will ignore it, presumably because all the other pigs successfully overthrew the animals' civilization offscreen). | |

Planet of the Apes: Discussed in Escape from the Planet of the Apes, when the time-displaced Cornelius recounts what is, to him, ancient history, but to his 20th Century listeners, hasn't happened yet. He describes how human civilization, Just Before the End, became brutally dependent on apes as a slave race. Eventually the apes rose up under the leadership of a gorilla named Aldo, and the humans, panicking, unleashed their nuclear weapons, bombing the world into the postapocalyptic state we saw in the original Planet of the Apes (1968). In the next film in the series, Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, that revolt comprises the main plot, although because of Cornelius and Zira's presence in the timeline and the birth of their son, Caesar, the revolution ends up going in a more merciful direction, leading to a slightly more hopeful and harmonious future, as seen in the final film of the original series, Battle for the Planet of the Apes. |

Dragon Age: A main story quest in Dragon Age: Origins has the Warden save a group of elves from being sold into slavery. That, or just leave them to their fate for shits and giggles. Also pops up in Dragon Age II during the quest Wayward Son, in which Hawke must save a young mage named Feynriel from slavers. As well, the storyline of Hawke's companion Fenris involves fighting his former slave master... or selling out Fenris for a few sovereigns. |

Unfortunate Implications ensue when the humans create a society identical to the old American West, where the Skagarans, the former slave owners, are treated the same way black people were treated in the Old West after being freed from slavery. | |

In The Homeward Bounders, Joris the apprentice demon hunter is the slave of his teacher Konstam. When confronted about this, Konstam explains that Joris was already a slave when they first met and there are issues preventing him from freeing Joris while he's still a child, but he has already made plans to free him as soon as he reaches legal adulthood (and has been putting aside all the wages he would have been entitled to as a free apprentice). | |

The Outer Limits: In "The Camp", the surviving humans are held as slaves for the "New Masters", an alien species that long ago conquered Earth. One of them discovers the overseers who run their camp are actually androids and breaking down due to age. She then manages to lead a successful slave revolt, only to discover that the New Masters had perished a long time ago. In "The Grell", the Kohler's (who eventually free their own slave) encounter a number of Grell who have escaped and revolted against the humans. In "The Human Operators", the man frees himself after Ship begins to break down. The woman was freed when her own ship broke down earlier, faking that it was still in operation so this would remain hidden from the other ship minds. At the end, he and the woman begin planning to liberate their fellow human slaves on other ships. |

With This Ring: As part of Orange Lantern's plan to liberate Tamaran (the home planet of Starfire from the Gordanians, who'd been oppressing them for decades with the support of the Psions, he pretends to be a slaver himself, buying up all the slaves the Gordanians have availible, then releasing them on a friendly planet until they can be returned home safely. This is because while crushing the Gordanians is almost trivial for someone of OL's power, he didn't want to risk the captive Tamaranians getting caught in the crossfire. Once the ruse was no longer needed, OL wiped out most of the Gordanian clans, stranding some of the survivors on an uninhabited planet, before going after the Psions next. | |

Wonder Woman: Given the high number of her villains who forced others into slavery in the Golden Age Sensation Comics and the original Wonder Woman were full of stories of her freeing their slaves, and those under More than Mind Control could be brought back to themselves by having a wrist wrapped in her lasso or through her own very mild telepathic abilities. Wonder Woman (1942): Di and Steve Trevor lead a Slave Revolt on Saturn and in later diplomatic talks have the Emperor abolish slavery on Saturn and return the abducted slaves to their places of origin in order to enter a treaty with the US. Wonder Woman (1987): After being captured and enslaved by the Sangtee Empire Diana lead a revolt with the slaves kept on the same planet as her that led to a revolution that forced the Empire to abolish slavery altogether.

This was Django and Schultz's original plan for Broomhilda in Django Unchained, which went to hell due to Stephen, Candie's head house slave, twigging to the real reason the two were there. It was also how Django himself was originally freed at the beginning of the movie, though the two brothers transporting him and other slaves died soon after Schultz "bought" Django. | |

In Oblivion proper, the Daedric Prince Malacath has you do this for his personal quest. A Dunmer named Lord Drad has enslaved a group of Ogres to work his mine; Malacath is the patron of Ogres and tasks you with setting them free. If you succeed, the Ogres turn the tables and enslave Drad themselves, forcing him to work non-stop. | |

Star Wars: Tatooine Ghost: Han encounters a former weequay slave named Grunts who he won in a card game many years ago. Hans freed Grunts and offered him a job as a cargo hauler, but Chewbacca and Grunts didn't get along, so they went their separate ways. A video recording of Cliegg Lars freeing his future wife Shimi from slavery is shown. |

Discworld Golems have a unique system whereby the free ones collectively save up their wages to buy the one who are still owned their freedom. It started when Captain Carrot bought a golem named Dorfl and put the receipt, and proof of ownership, inside the golem's head. So it allowed the golem to "own" itself. Dorfl became a policeman and started working for pay. One became two. Two became three and so on and so on. | |

Batman: The Brave and the Bold: Done unsuccessfully and Played for Laughs twice with the efforts of Dr. Canus, an uplifted, futuristic dog mutant, who tries to free devolved and enslaved humans from the animal men armies. The slaves are too unintelligent to run a single foot after being freed from their shackles. Another time, Canus travels back in time to the present day, where he mistakes dogs for imprisoned sentients like himself and unsuccessfully tries to free them. Battmanicus, a distant predecessor and possible ancestor of Batman, rides around ancient Rome in a chariot, freeing slaves from their masters. |

Exalted: The Deshan satrapies in the North are populated almost entirely by slaves tasked with producing a steady stream of food for the Realm and kept docile by drugs. As the drugs don't always quite succeed in dulling the slaves' minds, sometimes due to deliberate sabotage, the satrapies are frequently rocked by slave uprisings varying from brief riots to country-wide revolts. As the slaves know they have few chances of winning, they often focus simply on causing as much damage as they can and on torturing and killing every overseer and noble that they can. The revolts are typically put down swiftly, brutally, and completely by the satrapies' militia, but with the Empress' disappearance and the Realm's growing weakness and internal strife, they're becoming more common and more difficult to quell with every year. | |

Discussed in Escape from the Planet of the Apes, when the time-displaced Cornelius recounts what is, to him, ancient history, but to his 20th Century listeners, hasn't happened yet. He describes how human civilization, Just Before the End, became brutally dependent on apes as a slave race. Eventually the apes rose up under the leadership of a gorilla named Aldo, and the humans, panicking, unleashed their nuclear weapons, bombing the world into the postapocalyptic state we saw in the original Planet of the Apes (1968). | |

The Oriath Templars are pretty bad people, so you end up assisting them by killing the new High Templar. Unfortunately, it turns out the revolt was being led by cultists of Kitava, the Karui god of destruction, and Oriath turns into his feeding trough after you kill the patron god that was possessing the High Templar. | |

Pathfinder: On Golarion there's the Bellflower Network, an organization run by halflings, who are commonly enslaved in this setting. The faction is dedicated to freeing other halflings and closely resembles the Underground Railroad. Many Bellflower agents are former slaves who chose to take on the fight due to familial ties. In the transition to Second Edition, the slaves of Sargava (a former colonial holding of Cheliax in the Mwangi Expanse) succeed at one of these. The nation is now known as Vidrian. |

Vow of Nudity: The Silver Lining serves this role in-universe. However, the sort of guerilla raiding tactics normally seen in this trope seem to be only a small part of their playbook; instead they usually purchase slaves' freedom through legal imperial means and help the newly-freed slaves integrate comfortably back into Mixed Lands society. Haara (an escaped slave herself) tends to take a more direct approach, violently liberating slaves in several of her stories. | |

The Alien Chronicles trilogy is set in a universe where the reptilian Viis have enslaved numerous other species, who are collectively referred to as the abiru. The protagonist - an Aaroun named Ampris - grows from a spoiled pet of the future empress to the leader of La Résistance. The liberation of the abiru as a whole becomes her primary goal, though she does conduct several smaller-scale liberations in the process. This includes her escape from a research lab alongside several other test subjects in the second book, as well as helping several abiru farm workers flee Viis confinement early in the third book. The end of the trilogy sees her lead an exodus of abiru from the Viis homeworld as their teetering empire begins breaking down in earnest, allowing a large number of abiru to found a new society on the paradise planet Ruu-113, safely away from the Viis. | |

Mass Effect is a Space Opera where humanity and batarians get along poorly, largely due to the batarian tendency to raid human colonies for slaves who are treated barbarously. Raids are made to free these slaves sometimes; Talitha from the Colonist-only content was one of these. In Mass Effect 2, the player character goes to Illium, a world where "indentured servitude" is legal. People sell their contracts for years at a time in exchange for a nulling of all debts and a much-improved resume. The one slave broker you meet is reassuring a girl whose contract isn't being sold that she'll take care of her and, if questioned, insists that the system is carefully designed to prevent abuse and even gives details. However, the salarian workers at Dantius Towers don't have any options, a commercial playing in the background to Illium's elite asks "Haven't you had enough of being a slave to your employees when it should be the other way around?", and Shepard can insist that the slave broker free her charge. Also in 2, Justicar Samara can tell Shepard about her wild maiden days, how she 'disagreed' when she found out her mercenary band had been hired to transport a cargo of slaves to deliver to the Collectors. |

In the next film in the series, Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, that revolt comprises the main plot, although because of Cornelius and Zira's presence in the timeline and the birth of their son, Caesar, the revolution ends up going in a more merciful direction, leading to a slightly more hopeful and harmonious future, as seen in the final film of the original series, Battle for the Planet of the Apes. | |

Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019): It's revealed via an Easter Egg that Advanced Ancient Humans previously enslaved the very Titans that they'd once worshipped and tried to use them as weapons for warfare, only for some of the Titans to rebel, triggering an all-out human-Titan conflict which culminated in a global cataclysm. At the end of the conflict, the Titans were freed but their numbers had been decimated, and they had to withdraw into hibernation against an ice age; while the advanced ancient human civilization was dismantled irreparably, leaving only scattered survivors around the world who forgot their shared past over generations. | |

Star Wars: The Old Republic: While little can be done about slavery on a large scale, there are occasions where individual slaves are freed. The Sith Inquisitor PC was released from slavery and sent to Korriban's Sith Academy when it was discovered they were Force-sensitive. Their own future apprentice Xalek has a similar backstory. The Sith Warrior is given a Twi'lek named Vette, imprisoned for graverobbing, as a slave, and has a couple opportunities to free her. Later a companion quest offers the opportunity to buy her sister out of Sex Slavery. |

Star Trek: Abducting humans to use as slave labor is a bad idea. Star Trek: Voyager: In the early twentieth century, the Briori abducted humans from Earth and took them to the Delta Quadrant to be slaves. The slaves revolted and turned their new world into a paradise. The Briori never came back. Star Trek: Enterprise: In the nineteenth century, the Scagarans abducted humans to use as slave labor. The humans revolted and took over. Unfortunate Implications ensue when the humans create a society identical to the old American West, where the Skagarans, the former slave owners, are treated the same way black people were treated in the Old West after being freed from slavery. |

Schindler's List has industrialist Oskar Schindler select Jews to work in his factory as slave labor. Most Jews accepted this, as it was far better than slow, cruel death in the Eastern camps. Schindler comes to respect these people who could suffer toil and indignation with such stoicism. As the war winds down and Allied troops advance, Schindler addresses his massed workers with the news. | |

After being thrown into the slave mining pits, Maelstrom tries to lead an uprising, but no slave joins her revolt out of reasonable fear of being brutally punished by Darkseid's soldiers.

In The Fangs of K'aath Prince Raschid buys a small army's worth of slaves and equips them with matchlock muskets with the promise of freeing them after five years of service, both because he detests slavery and is wary of his half-brother and other court factions trying to kill him. When the Shah dies they stick with him in the ensuing Succession Crisis and he frees them on the spot, along with every other slave in Sath. | |

Transhuman Space features a science-fiction version of the trope, clearly partly inspired by the history of anti-slavery activities; "bioroids" are considered property in some jurisdictions and free sapient beings in others, and some groups and nations run active armed anti-bioroid trading operations. Artificial Intelligence liberation is a lesser concern in the setting, but in some cases, AIs will similarly move or be moved from places where they are property to other places where they can be free citizens. | |

The Boondocks episode "The Story of Catcher Freeman" involves Robert, Ruckus, and Huey all recounting a folktale about a 19th-century slave revolt, in which a Southern planter named Colonel Lynchwater was killed. However the three all argue over the true details of the story; such as whether the titular slave Catcher Freeman led the revolt, or tried to stop it (Out of bestial loyalty according to Ruckus, or personal desire to get his script approved according to Huey). In Huey's testimony, however, it was Thelma who led the revolt instead of "Catcher" who may have been Tobias after he accidentally shot his master/father into an ensuing melee. Realizing what he had done, Tobias decided to play along with the rebels that earned his love with Thelma and galvanized the Catcher Freeman mythos. | |

This eventually turns into a plan to free all the slaves in the Kingdom, after Maggie learns that Hunter Redfern plans to slaughter all the slaves. After Hunter and the nobles loyal to him are dead, Delos frees the slaves immediately, inviting them all into the castle. | |

In The Elder Scrolls backstory, in the 1st Era, the Nedes (ancestors to most of the modern races of Men) were enslaved by the Ayleids (Wild Elves) of Cyrodiil. The Daedra-worshiping Ayleids were exceptionally vile in the treatment of their Nedic slaves, leading to one escaped slave, Alessia, praying to the Aedra for aid. Eight of the Aedra, who would go on to be known as the Eight Divines, responded and provided aid. Alessia's alliance of her Nedic people, the Divines, rebel Ayleid lords, and the Nordic Empire to the north was able to crush the Ayleid forces and capture Cyrodiil for mankind ever after, forming the First Cyrodiilic Empire of Men in Tamriel. | |

The backstory of A Song of Ice and Fire has the city of Braavos being founded by several shiploads of slaves who hijacked the ships transporting them and with the help of the Moonsinger priests sailed off to found a settlement in a place the slave masters wouldn't find them. In the modern day, the First Law of Braavos forbids slavery of any kind within the city, and Braavosi have been known to dip their fingers in type A at opportunity (liberating the slaves on encountered slaver ships, having the forbidding of slavery as clauses in peace treaties even if they don't bother enforcing it beyond the letter, etc.). | |

The River Kingdoms (the setting of the Kingmaker adventure path and its CRPG adaptation) are one of the few areas to share Andoran's antipathy to slavery. The ban on slavery is the fifth of the six River Freedoms: it's estimated that a third of the population is made up of escaped slaves or their descendants, who zealously defend against slavers, and Hellknights of the Order of the Chain are forbidden from holding office there due to the order's support for the practice. | |

During the Fishman Island arc in One Piece, the New Fishman Pirates had spent several in-universe months capturing human pirates passing through and forcing them into servitude. During the battle between the Straw Hats and the New Fishman Pirates, Jinbe, who knew Fisher Tiger personally and is disgusted by their actions, asks Robin to undo the slaves' chains. Once free, the human pirates are quick to turn against their oppressors. What makes this doubly ironic is that the leaders of the New Fishman Pirates idolize Fisher Tiger and think they're emulating him, unaware that his campaign was against slavery in general and not against humanity. A case of this was what caused the "God Valley" incident. The Celestial Dragons decided to have a contest of Hunting the Most Dangerous Game with God Valley's population and their more troublesome slaves. Rather than let themselves be killed, some of the slaves hatched their own plan to escape. One of the slaves did wire-tapping to reveal that the prizes for the hunt were some Devil Fruits, hoping that it would attract pirates to act as a diversion. Then the slaves would steal the Fruits in the confusion and use their powers to escape. This plan worked, with one slave getting a Devil Fruit that allowed him to save 500 people from certain death; Bartholomew Kuma's Paw-Paw Fruit. |

Magic: The Gathering implies this trope with two cards, the Enslaved Dwarf and the Liberated Dwarf. While the pictures appear to be different dwarves, both cards have the same attributes (1/1 for one red mana, and paying one red mana and sacrificing them grants +1/+0 and Forst Strike until the end of turn to the target black/green creature, respectively) and were released in consecutive editions as part of the same block. | |

As told in The Krypton Chronicles and other Pre-Crisis Superman stories, Kryptonians were conquered and enslaved by the Vrangs until a general revolt led by Superman and Supergirl's ancestor Hatu-El succeeded in kicking the Vrangs out of Krypton. The Vrang revolt was eventually retconned back in the Post-Crisis and Post-Flashpoint continuities. | |

Game of Thrones: As mentioned in the entry for its source material, A Song of Ice and Fire, Daenerys overthrows the slave cities of Astapor, Yunkai, and Meereen. As mentioned in the entry for its source material, she finds that overthrowing a few cities is easier than overthrowing a social system. Since the show has a Gecko Ending, her ultimate answer was to pull a Screw This, I'm Out of Here! — the whole thing was essentially a Side Quest for her anyway — and return to main plot, the titular game of thrones. | |

L3-37 in Solo incites a revolution among the slaves on Kessel. She liberates a droid who is in the way of her accessing a control panel with a dismissive "You're free. Go release everyone else." That droid releases other droids who release other droids and other slaves until a full-blown slave revolt happens. | |

In The Moon and the Sun, Marie-Josèphe's family has a slave named Odelette, who Marie-Josèphe always assumed enjoyed Happiness in Slavery. When Odelette tells Marie-Josèphe how horrible it actually is to be a slave, and how much she wants to live in Turkey, where her mother lived before being enslaved, Marie-Josèphe tells her that she is unofficially free, even though she won't be legally free until she can persuade Yves to sign the manumission documents, and that she will adopt her as her sister. Odelette changes her name to Haleed and becomes a practicing Muslim. In the end, Yves signs the documents, and the King gives Haleed some pearls that she can use to travel to Turkey. | |

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind has a few slave markets, (only one of which the player is actually able to purchase from), and any slave the player buys can be freed by them immediately if the player chooses. If the player is the same race as the slave they're buying, the slavemistress will say that she knows they're probably just buying the slave to free them, but doesn't really care because she gets paid either way. | |

Part of Erza's backstory in Fairy Tail. She was one of the slaves kidnapped and forced to build a "Tower of Heaven" by Zeref fanatics who believed once they did so they could bring him back from the dead. After her childhood friend and fellow slave, Jellal, is taken to be tortured for trying to save her from punishment. Erza has enough and rallies the slaves in a revolt against their captors, along the way, awakening her magical power. | |

Black Fleet Crisis: The Fallanassi captured by the Yevetha used their powers to make illusions that let other captives escape, though they remained behind to maintain these so the guards wouldn't know. The Imperial prisoners in Yevetha custody worked for them on the captured ships, surreptitiously implanting a slave circuit (the name being ironic is noted) to gain control later, rising up and freeing themselves then absconding with the Black Sword Command in its entirety. |

Warhammer 40,000: Sir Hekhtur the Chainbreaker is utterly dedicated to freeing all those Imperial citizens enslaved by vile xenos creatures and Chaos warlords. This stems from being the sole loyalist survivor of his Knightly House, the rest having been enslaved, killed, or corrupted by Chaos forces. Subverted with the Lamenters chapter of Space Marines, an offshoot of the Blood Angels free of the Angels' Black Rage but suffer catastrophic bad luck in all their endeavors. Case in point: the liberation of 3 million human slaves from an ork mining world ended in a bloody stalemate so bad the slaves asked to be killed from orbit so the Lamenters wouldn't die to the last man to save them. Their request was granted. The world was rendered unusable to the orks, but the Lamenters left with maybe a tenth of the slaves they'd tried to save, not to mention the horrific losses they'd taken. Corax, Primarch of the Raven Guard, was found by the slaves of a moon used as a massive prison whose inmates were worked to death by their jailers. They taught him all kind of guerrilla warfare tactics and he put them to good use leading a campaign of sabotage that ended with them taking control of the moon and launching atomic explosives against their former masters in the planet they orbited. After the Emperor arrived and Corax and his followers joined the Imperium, the moon was renamed Deliverance and, since then, has been the chapter house of the Raven Guard, who have sworn they will not rest until all tyrants and enslavers of the galaxy are dead. |

Ariel of Drowtales sets one of her slaves, the human woman Vaelia, free after she saves her from an attempt on her life. Vaelia stays with Ariel to work as a bodyguard and Parental Substitute for her, and due to the circumstances that led her to become a slave (mainly, her hometown being raided since she let them in as revenge for her fellow warriors treating her badly because she was female) she doesn't have anywhere else to go and believes Ariel needs her. Since one's hair length signifies social status, she also gets hair extensions so none of the other drow mistake her for a slave. | |

Asterix: In the book The Mansion of the Gods Asterix, Obelix, and Getafix provide the magic potion to the slaves building the titular mansion expecting they'll use their newfound Super-Strength to rise up... But they didn't account for the utterly pragmatic way ancient Romans treated their slaves (to avoid rebellions they actually treated them as people, if with far less rights than even foreigners, and paid them a small stipend so they'll be able to enjoy their own things and eventually buy their freedom, saving the masters from having to pay for their upkeep in their old age. Thus the slaves instead show their strength and demand a higher pay and freedom upon completing the Mansion and the Romans accept, much to Asterix' chagrin when the slaves use their super strength to build the place that much faster. | |

Horatio Hornblower, "Mutiny" and "Retribution": Black slaves are in rebellion against their Spanish masters in Santo Domingo. The British Royal Navy tries to use it to their advantage because there is a nest of Spanish privateers menacing their trade in Samana Bay. Their goal is to get control of the Spanish fort and capture their ships. It turns out the fort is really under siege by the rebel slave army and the rebels also killed British deserters because they mistook them for Spanish soldiers. | |

Forever: This is Henry's plan when he travels on the slaver ship Empress of Africa in the flashback of "Dead Men Tell Long Tales." He intends to steal the key that opens the shackles and cell doors, and pass it to an African captive who understands English, telling him where they can find the armory and acquire weapons to take over the ship. The plan is interrupted by the captain before Henry can pass over the key. Henry is shot and killed by the captain, but the key falls from his hand as his body is dragged past the cells, and the Africans are able to carry out the plan, sailing the ship into free waters in the North. | |

A constant risk for slavers in Stellaris is slaves carving out a new nation for themselves by force. Should they succeed, they'll either become militaristic Democratic Crusaders bent on freeing their fellow slaves or join a nearby empire with anti-slavery ethos. Notably, while revolutions are normally only a risk at 80 unrest (out of a possible 100), slaves will start radicalizing and looking for opportunities to revolt at only 10 unrest. | |

Conan the Barbarian: In Conan the Avenger, Conan and his mercenary allies assault a slave-trading hub and release their prisoners in the process. They didn't necessarily do it for noble intentions; in reality, they were looking for just one slave who can lead them to a treasure they are looking for. Attacking the hub was the only available option since they didn't have the necessary money to buy her off and even if they had, her owners would have been unwilling to sell her. Surprisingly Realistic Outcome when this action drives the neighboring warring countries to join forces to pursue them because they disrupted their economy, showing that trying to pull a bold stunt like this will lead to a very powerful and angry army breathing down your neck. | |

GURPS: The Banestorm setting includes the principality of Cardiel, the only realm on Yrth where slavery is strictly outlawed — any slave who reaches the land is automatically considered free. As a result, it's a safe haven for abolitionists to operate out of. This especially complicates things in the city of Tredroy, which sprawls across three different realms, including Cardiel; slaves frequently try to flee to the Cardien portion of the city. | |

Star Wars Legends The Courtship of Princess Leia: Isolder, Luke, and Han are all initially treated as slaves after being caught by Witches. Luke soon frees himself, while Han is freed when Leia tells the elders of the Singing Mountain Clan he'd saved her, which earns his freedom. Isolder stays a slave the longest, while Teneniel frees him when they fall for each other. Star Wars: Tatooine Ghost: Han encounters a former weequay slave named Grunts who he won in a card game many years ago. Hans freed Grunts and offered him a job as a cargo hauler, but Chewbacca and Grunts didn't get along, so they went their separate ways. A video recording of Cliegg Lars freeing his future wife Shimi from slavery is shown. |

Star Control: The main villains, the Ur-Quan, were once slaves of the Dnyarri, who would Mind Control the Ur-Quan to do tasks for them. One Ur-Quan made a discovery: Dnyarri would automatically disconnect their mind control if the Ur-Quan was in extreme pain. He broadcast this information to as many Ur-Quan as he could, leading the Ur-Quan to self-mutilate and otherwise harm themselves en masse to get the Dnyarri out of their heads. Eventually, they succeeded in defeating the Dnyarri... but the revolt was so painful and traumatizing for them that they decided they would have to enslave (or annihilate) all other life in the universe out of fear that someone, somewhere, might enslave them again. | |

In the Bounders series, a major one happened on the Youli homeworld long before Earth made First Contact. The Youli used to be cruel tyrants who enslaved other species and stripped their planets for ore. Eventually, the slaves they'd transported to their homeworld revolted, and the inhabitants of other planets leaped at the opportunity to join in. The Youli were almost wiped out, and their homeworld was almost destroyed, along with the entire galaxy. In the end, the Youli learned their lesson, developed Organic Technology so they wouldn't have to rely on slave labor, and formed the Intergalactic Council so that this would never happen again. | |

Small Gods: After conquering Ephebe, the Omnian Exquisition frees the Ephebian slaves... who then promptly go berserk on the bastards who've taken away their jobs and livelihoods. And they win. The Omnians had failed to register that Ephesians slaves were the beneficiaries of a well-established and incredibly successful workers' rights movement, to the point where slavery had almost become a Weird Trade Union by the time they invaded. | |

In the third Gor novel, Priest-Kings of Gor, Tarl almost revolutionizes Gorean society to outlaw slavery... but doesn't quite get around to doing it. (Gor being Gor, Tarl eventually realizes that slavery is a good thing). | |

Chapter 4 of Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous takes place entirely within the Abyssal city of Alushinyrra, which has a slave market. You can buy slaves free from several merchants, and in one case your aasimar companion Daeran, a wealthy nobleman, will buy a group of aasimar women free himself if the PC doesn't offer. | |

The Silerian Trilogy: The rebels under Josarian free the slaves in Valdani brothels, not so much out of anti-slavery sentiment as to hurt their morale (which it does, badly). Even so, the slaves are sent home. However, Elelar sadly wonders if anything except disgrace and poverty is waiting for them there. The Alizar diamond mines also hold many Silerian men who were just rounded up by the Valdani to work there. Even the convicts are often sentenced for very petty crimes and all work in awful conditions where many die, so they're not much different. Josarian also leads their liberation as the rebels take Alizar. |

The premise of Lesbian Spider-Queens of Mars is that the eponymous Queen's harem has launched a coup and she needs to web her girls back up again. Overlaps with Type 1, since a Yandere Psycho Lesbian ex-girlfriend is actually behind the rebellion. | |

The first we see of Conan as an adult in the reboot of Conan the Barbarian (2011) is him leading a raid to liberate a bunch of slaves from some pirates. The fact that a solid chunk of the slaves are topless, nubile women is just a happy coincidence. | |

The Chronicles of Dorsa: Joslyn escaped from slavery, as did a girl she knew, while just a teenager. Milo, a little boy with a magical gift, was captured and forced to aid the mountain men before Joslyn freed him. Linna was sold into slavery by her own mother. Tasia took a liking to her when they met. Seeing it, her owner gave her Linna as a present (as she's his sovereign). Tasia swiftly freed her. |
