I reiterate here that I love this idea as it solves a problem I didn't know I had!
My players only ever use their Delian Tomb followers and retainers as Respite rollers as they have thin connections to those characters. In comparison, I think these much more flavorful Retainers that would lead to a lot of player interest!

It's been fascinating seeing people's submissions reflect their experience at the table, and how other Directors may not have ever had those problems or only just realized they needed a fix. Lots of good varied ideas floating around this jam.
Glad these retainers hit the mark for you! And thanks for the review. Looking forward to eventually getting to the Complication Curatives
