You've spent the better time of your life in service under Royalty, as a fiercely dedicated protector and caretaker. You are tasked with their protection, with their care, and with their wellbeing, and to be under beck and call for more specific duties fit for your specific training. As a Retainer you are trained in most household tasks, from sewing to cleaning to cooking to at least a basic level, but don't often have a set schedule. Depending on your training, you could be tasked as a Bodyguard, advisor, simple servant, and even under unusual circumstances, would be expected to preform less "Legal" activities for their lords, up to and including assassination, dependent on rank and training.
It is not uncommon for a retainer to swap hands at a master's recommendation, for their own personal gain or as a favour to a more powerful noble. In such circumstances it's expected that the retainer acts with similar loyalty as if they were family themselves.
