Synopsis
A floating pair of hands silently tend to just about any need you have.


Description
These hands are not-quite transparent and float at about five feet off the ground.

The hands are male or female in shape and appear in all human skin tones, though many wear white gloves.

If anyone investigated, they would find that the hands have substance, but there is nothing to suggest that the hands have bodies.


Personality
The invisible servants are happy to assist you in anything within the castle.

They will gesture politely to guide you anywhere you need to go and it seems impossible to make one angry.


Equipment / Abilities
They may send written messages and fetch or carry anything (within reason) that your character asks for. (They will bring tools for you, but not weapons. They will bring food for you or clothes from your wardrobe, but not provide you with money or new clothes. They will not steal for you and they cannot bring you keys to locked rooms, though they can open your own if you're locked out of it.)

They will hear you anywhere within the castle and, if necessary, can get the attention of Lord Märchen if you are in trouble. But only if they can hear you (that is, not gagged or muted). No matter where you are within the castle, they will arrive to assist you (often with what you've requested) in under ten minutes. 

The invisible servants will not take sides in fights/attacks and will only get Lord Märchen or another visitor of the castle if asked. They will not take initiative on their own.

They cannot communicate directly with you, as they cannot speak and do not know sign language. Simple hand signals, however, they can do.

They cannot deal with animals, as animals are frightened of them.


History
It is assumed that Lord Märchen created them magically, but this may not be the case. It may be one of many ways invisible servants are created.


Extra
Any player may use the Invisible Servants if they follow the rules laid out above.

I will not control them for you unless I initiate the action, so don't expect me to see that you've ordered an invisible servant around and post to say they've carried and fetched for you. Do that yourself if it's such a minor action!
