Description and lore
A retinue is a group of willing allies gathered for a defined local task.
Its identity comes from the people who agree to accompany the party. Their familiar equipment, distinct voices and personal concerns travel with them.
A local objective gives the group a reason to act together. An escort calls for watchful companions; an assault gives those same people a different responsibility.
