From Asterix and Caesar’s Gift onward Vitalstatistix has had the same (unnamed) bearers carry (and drop) him; prior to that he had different bearers in each album. In Asterix in Switzerland he fires both his shield bearers after he tells them that it’s a lovely day, and they look up, tipping the shield back (and dropping the chief). When they lean forward again, he has gone. He then goes and hires new shield bearers including Asterix, Geriatrix, Fulliautomatix and Obelix (in these cases the shield is horribly tilted so he is forced to stand on a slant, and Obelix carried him with one hand like a waiter).
