A master-servant is an Vorin profession that can be held by darkeyed citizens of the second nahn. They are hired to work for well off lighteyes and attend to their needs. They perform a number of duties including, but not limited to, fetching refreshments and meals, delivering messages, and staffing events and institutions. A variety of hand signals can be used to indicate to the master-servant what task is required, or simply to request assistance.[1][2][3][4][5]
The standard uniform for a master-servant includes a crisp white shirt with an emblem over the breast and either black pants or a black skirt.[4][5] Those with long hair will often wear it bound.[4] Master-servants in training have an all black uniform and there is no emblem on their shirts.[5] The refined manner in which they act is a point of pride for most master-servants, though this attitude is mocked by those of other classes.[1]
Master-servants staff the Kharbranthian Conclave and the Palanaeum.[4][6]
Szeth posed as a master servant when he broke into the Conclave in Kharbranth to kill Taravangian.[7]
