If one wanted a personal servant for an attendant and such, would that need to be with xp through the advantage, or could you hire one with Koku as well?

Yes. With xp, it's always with you and they have a skill. With money, it's part time job (and they have no real skills)

I couldn't find a prior answer via search for this:

Does Sage provide Lore: Underworld? I think it does (it isn't quite Forbidden Knowledge, yes?) but wanted to double-check.

We're going with the route of advantage phantom skill overlap than exclusion. So, in this case, Sage will provide Lore: Underworld!

Sage so good!

I mean. Depends. Assassinations, eeeeh maybe not. Sending someone to Desolation (or a guide) - if everyone in faction agree, why not?

To raise its machine XP for raising traits, the drone enthusiast must roll Engineering/Intelligence to TN of 20 to gain 1 XP.
To raise its programming XP for raising skills, the drone enthusiast must roll Computer (Programming)/Intelligence to TN of 20 to gain 1 XP.
When it comes to making either an Engineering/Intelligence or Computer (Programming)/Intelligence in this way, the enthusiast can call two raises and gain an additional 1 XP on a successful roll.
The enthusiast can call more than 2 raises, or that is the limit?

If the enthusiast can call four raises legally then yes, they can do that, or six raises.
