These personal assistants have three very specific purposes that the fulfill all at once. If asked to do anything else they politely remind you that it isn't in their job description.
- Hype you up to others, even when you aren't around.
- Help you get up or get to safety when hurt.
- Not fight directly, but get involved in distracting your opponents, throwing things to you, or attacking opposing valet-guards.
When you try to hire one roll two d6s for your options. In case of a duplicate you've just got one choice, take it or leave it.
