Slavery
plenty:
In my opinion - enslaving doesn't require any charisma nor speech at all. You will never convince a slave. You terrorize them into obedience.
Outdoorsman, yes, traps, locks, maybe. Charisma - the lower, the better.
Do I need to remind you that slavers usually captured people from nations whose language they didn't knew? Africans, native americans and so on. The universal argument was a whip, not pretty talking somebody into custody.
In the terms of speech: "do what I tell you or f***ing die!." Does that sounds like speech to you?
Use some logic.
Frozen Mind:
It's not about the logic. It's about the professions system. You need to pick requirements like in other profession to balance the game. Traps don't convince me at all. And this skill in much cases rises above the PvP. The thing is there is no terrorize skill too. Here goes out unused skill - speech. That's why. Charisma - you need it to lead players and NPCs through the wasteland. So it's naturally attached to the profession.
We don't want to have thousands of slavers and flood of slaves.
plenty:
Its better to introduce quests with speech requirement, if you are worried about unused skill.

You DON'T lead them, you HERD them.
The way you wand it to be, lets get a profession for gathering of each type of resources, and lets add a speech requirement - some tribes used to talk to plants before cutting them.
You said yourself, that logic doesn't concern you...
Frozen Mind:
The crafting system wouldn't be BALANCED then :P . I consider logic, but balance is really what the on-line game needs.
Okay. Let's make it that way. You need ST8 and big guns 120 outdoor 150 to reach the level 3 of slaver profession. Terrorized and bad treated slaves would make an uprise in your tent by night. Because they don't see sense of living with a big guy with his big gun who even can't talk and look almost like ghoul.
FLAMES!!!
