Trash Panda
Trash Panda does not collect garbage. He acquires undervalued inventory.
From the alleys and dumpsters of Glonk City, he has built a surprisingly sophisticated trading empire based on salvage, leftovers, shiny objects and things people really should have kept a closer eye on.
One City’s Trash...
Trash Panda has never understood why Glonk City throws away so much perfectly good stuff.
A bent sign, half a box of donuts, three feet of copper wire, a lamp missing its shade or a mysterious key with no obvious lock: other citizens see clutter. Trash Panda sees opportunity.
What began as a few carefully selected finds became caches. The caches became inventory. The inventory became a trading network stretching through alleys, loading docks, back doors and dumpsters across the city.
Today, the so-called Alley Economy can supply almost anything if you know who to ask, what to trade and how flexible you are about the definition of “new.”
Trash Panda is cheerful, resourceful and always ready to make a deal. He is also deeply offended by wastefulness and genuinely believes he is performing an important civic service.
Considering how often Glonky needs an extremely specific object on very short notice, he may have a point.

Trash Panda is Glonk City’s scavenger, trader and unlikely quartermaster. When an adventure requires a strange tool, missing part, mysterious object or item nobody remembers buying, his collection is the obvious place to start.
He also knows the alleys, service corridors and forgotten corners of the city better than almost anyone, making him just as useful for finding places as he is for finding things.
