Butler (no ontology)
From Mazeworld
A butler is a person employed in domestic service. Butlers are always male(/otoko), but have a female(/futanari) counterpart, the maid. Their only equipment is a simple broom in most cases, which they use as a weapon in occasional moments, though they can be given more specialized and modern cleaning equipment should the need arise.
Like with maids, three types of butlers can be distinguished:
- The lone butlers working for no-one in particular, cleaning the floor and dusting in rooms as they are assigned by the Game Masters; those butlers work for the GMs for a minimum wage of 85 P$/day and usually are seeking someone to work for.
- The butlers that are employed or owned by someone else, and for whom they work exclusively. Their employer chooses their wage and may pay them as much as they please, as well as setting up any form of contract they wish (butlers can be required, for example, to be armed, and be protecting their employers as a requirement), so long as the butler explicitly agrees with the employer's terms.
- The promoted butlers that became Chief butlers. More info on their article. A butler becomes chief butler after promotion by the GMs.
A butler is considered part of the Maze Personnel and is usually respected as such, although it is one of the lowest ranking jobs in Mazeworld. Butlers are extremely commonplace; they can be found just about everywhere, as many citizens seeking for a job are likely to accept this or maid to earn something, should they not have the skills required for another occupation, or need something to make the ends meet.
Butlers are, because of their amount and low social status in the mazes, also subject to forms of abuse by other members of the Maze Personnel, gratuitous violence and rapes ranking amount the most frequent.
Employed butlers, however, are much less frequently subject to such abuse as their employers usually are themselves armed and ready to protect them.
Both kinds remain more vulnerable to attacks from creatures, as their only issued equipment is a broom, but won't hesitate, if they do find any, to pick up extra weapons to defend themselves.

Butlers are versatile; they will gladly obey the contestant's orders, which they will regard as their superior. They will do mostly anything ordered, pick up any weapon handed and change clothing if asked to, even if it means they are not recognized anymore as a butler; "only the bond with the employer counts, so long as the employer is satisfied" is a saying associated to the job mindset of maids and butlers; if they have to dress up and act like a Maze Soldier for example, they will gladly do so.

Disguise
A contestant can disguise as a butler if the following conditions are met:
- The contestant is male or otoko (Females and futanari will be instantly busted)
- Wearing the clothes worn by a butler; any other additional clothes are accepted, but the Tuxedo, Trousers and Leather shoes are essential.
Effects of the disguise:
- Fellow butlers, chief butlers, as well as maids and head maids become peaceful towards the contestant.
- All members of the Maze Personnel become neutral to the contestant (+ applicable perverted variants)
- All other creatures are unaffected.
