Sixteen Probably Stolen characters come through the door by name; each entry records what the game's own lines establish, and how well each point is backed.

How to use this section

Site narration

Every person here is named by the game and appears more than once. Customers who only carry a name from a random table are not listed.

The range is wide: the Landlord collects the rent, Officer Lun inspects and sells surplus, Grandpa Cheng resells food at a loss, and Georgio returns with dubious finds.

Four have portrait art the game drew. The rest are described from their own lines and the points they trade.
