Servant

The lowest rank among the Pa Mi Empire, this position is typically reserved for disgraced individuals who committed crimes against the empire and now must work off the debt to society. Occasionally this rank is bestowed permanently, but not often. Pairbonds of sentenced servants may either join their bonded in the punishment or be reassigned to another suitable bonded. Even if the rank is lifted, the servant may be seen as unfit to receive another pairbond if their original left them.

Those who hold this rank cannot be married, previous mateships are divorced, and they can never become historians, even in retirement.

Maid
A servant may be assigned to a particular family they have wronged to become disowned from society. They will be expected to serve this family faithfully and diligently to prove they can once again do the same for the empire. This is considered the safest assignment for a servant, as it keeps them safe within the protection of the empire. Duties of the maid may include cleaning the family's home, nest and care for any kits present. Occasionally this can mean being a punching bag for growing kits and their budding magics. This punishment is over after a set amount of time served.

Assistant
An awkward position one may find themselves in, being the work assistant of kayans that may have previously been working beneath them. This is a servant task typically reserved for disgraced aristocrats who abused their power. They must obey their previous workers in all ways to complete tasks of their trade, and will only be freed of this punishment when those they once lorded over feel they have learned their lesson well enough.
