Does any one know how to give characters retinues? I have tried to enter them as you would a trait: give_trait this NAME ANCILLARY. I also tried to vary it, but I keep getting the same response "Name not found". I think I almost have it but the computer doesn't know the name. Someone out their actually accomplish this yet? If you have HELP!! Please! 🤔

if you dont know the name of the charachter try targeting the charachter when its outside a town and type in this
"give_ancillary this apothecary"
That would give the character the fertility ancillary. Just remember its ancillary not trait in the command and if you dont know a charachters name then use "this" instead of name as long as you have him targeted. arrow up and target next character and you should be able to give the same ancillary to every character with no problem as long as they have room. Each character have a max limit of 8 ancillaries that they can have. Nothing will happen if you try to add one if the character dont have room.

thanks for all the help. give_ancillary this ??? worked; the retinue had to be in small letters, not caps. i.e. give_ancillary this trick_abacus. Hey if anyone has some retinues for merchants, princess, or priests/imams post them, please share. I have priest: monk, choir_boy, deacon. Merchants: only found trick_abacus. For a good list of traits look in: RTW/Data/export_descr_character_traits
