Queen Consort Married to the King, either out of love or for political arrangement, you have hopefully sired him a family to preserve his royal line. Heirs Princelings and princesses!

Clerk Assistant to the Steward. Listen and heed his instructions. Bailiff A noble justicar, bearer of the Tome of Laws, and the judge over any crimes.

Do as you please; you and your kind are above the common ilk. Advise the King on matters of His council.

Court Physician Wounds, leeches, lesions, galore. In service of a royal family, you've found no shortage of torn tendons, missing arms, and gut-worms. The Keeps' Servants Ignore the decrees of your Head Maid or Head Butler at your own peril. Keep food and drink ready for the Army and His Majesty. Jester Funny man! Bring a smile to everyone's face.
