A Slavers' Band is a technological device developed by Tuablin as an another means of mind control. It is also known as a Circlet of Joy or Zombie Crown; it looks like a circlet or headband.
The device contains control circuits inside the band that program the victim's mind once the device is placed on their head. Additional circuits work upon the pleasure centers (when a master is satisfied with the slave's behavior) and the pain centers (when the master is not pleased). So effective are these devices on the slave, that many slaves have willed themselves to death if the circlet is removed. Circuit can be controlled by the master's voice or by a remote-control unit.
The circlets have unfortunately become a fad with young Imperial nobles over the last decade.
