That's a good question. We know it happens, but not whether it is expressly legal or not. In Corvo's case though, we don't know the specifics of the arrangement. The "assigned" language at least leads me to believe he wasn't gifted as a slave.

(Maybe a servant exchange, which isn't specifically better, but given where slaves in Dunwall end up versus servants...)
