+# GARBAGE COLLECTORS
+
+At night, the Garbage Collectors (smelly gnolls) or other Janitor Mobs come out
+to remove any loose items or dead characters that may be lying around. They
+are quite tough.
+
+These janitor mobs clean up almost everywhere except Instances (that clean up themselves)
+and players' homes, prisons, and other VIP locations.
+
+They never trigger quests or events where they go, but:
+
+- they can interact with adventurers (they are quite aggressive, and may attack unprovoked, maybe sneak past)
+- they can interact with each other, but mostly do so if there are PCs nearby.
+
+# Attrition
+
+Even when a player is offline, their characters have to pay rent on their homes
+or room and board in an inn, or they can chance it in the wilderness.
+
+If they run out of money or rations, there is a small chance each day that the
+characters will be garbage collected.
+
+The sum that needs paying while offline not very large though.
