Nanny

You are a nanny. You’ve been tasked with taking care of children who are not your own. You love these children, and yet must remain somewhat detached, for you are not their parent and won’t see them grow into adults. It takes a special kind of person to do the work you do. Some commend you for it, while others incessantly comment that they’d never be able to do what you do. Either way, you pay their comments no mind as you love what you do. There is something beautiful about being part of people’s lives in such a formative stage in their development, and you intend to have the time the children spend with you be as good as it can possibly be. Now that you’re in the business of adventuring, you find that years of experience dealing with rowdy and rambunctious children, who don’t often do as they are told, comes in handy very often, maybe too often. Just like you loved the children you took care of before, you love your party members too, and are ready to see them become the best they can possibly be.
