For each retainer that a character has, a separate Retainer background must be purchased.

When required to perform a roll for a retainer, the following quick stat rules will apply:

If the action is within the retainer's area of expertise, they are allocated a dice pool equal to 2x their Retainer dots plus any applicable modifiers (use of disciplines etc)Retainer Dots
