Plenty more are ordinary Joes who picked up a sword to Avenge Their Fathers or something. Most of them don't last long... which is why they are called Doomed Slayers.   <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Slayers can retire to a cushy government job like that, as long as they are seen as "having done their due". At that moment they cease to be Slayers and are just regular government employees... although in a unique role of responsibility.But to get an offer like that, they need to have racked up some impressive deeds as a Slayer, and that likely means a couple of years on the road. And for many, the lifestyle becomes so ingrained that they have trouble settling down anywhere. Think of all the traumas that war veterans can accumulate, and then some.</blockquote>
