I would have to say that maids aren't entirely pointless. They give a point of view that a knight can't. Yes, a knight shows the sides of the battlefield and troubles on the front lines but a maid is more inside the the heart of the kingdom where the most serious problems are discussed. A maid can show an angle that a king or queen can't either. A king or queen may see the problems directly but a maid is more open to hear a problem that most knights will never know about. Maids are the eyes and ears a knight will never have.

My issue is that there are still plenty of roles to fulfill that simply aren't being taken, we still need kings to sit upon the throne, heirs to take their place if need be, bishops for support both for the throne and the battlefield, and warriors to fight. From what I can tell the knight quota has been filled, but the knights still need to get their orders from somewhere. Though my biggest issue is that its all for one kingdom in particular, especially considering one of the issues in getting this RP up and running is the lack of roles being taken in the kingdom of Michael.
