Re: What can the Retainers granted by the Noble/Knight background actually *do*?
It's Eberron, not ebberon.
It's not high magic, it's wide magic.
And it's definitely not steampunk. The only time steam gets involved is when the fire and water elementals break loose.

Re: What can the Retainers granted by the Noble/Knight background actually *do*?
On expedition they put up your tent, lay out your bedclothes, chop your firewood, make your dinner, do the dishes, clean your clothes.
They guard your possessions from theft *sideways glace at party troublemaker*.
In town they book your room at the inn, they sell your stuff, they take messages to local nobles, they announce you when you enter the room.
As for mechanical benefit, they come with some domain expertise. Your groom will accompany you to the horse market and advise you on the quality of the horses for sale. Your majordomo will quickly get all the goss on local nobility. When your attendant buys clothing, you know it will be quality gear.
