Manhole

s are a hazardous object in which appear on Downtown floors. They may contain a hostile NPC such as a Cannibal or Thief. They may also contain nothing, in which case they effectively become nothing more than a decorative object. It is not possible to know which will occur before approaching.

Proximity
When the player approaches a, one of two things will happen:
 * Nothing at all
 * Either a Hostile Thief or Cannibal jumps out.

Cannibal
If a Cannibal pops out, then they will simply try to attack you.

Thief
If the Thief jumps from the Manhole, they will instead steal an item from you and run away. If you manage to find and kill the Thief, then you can regain your stolen item.

Effects
If an NPC jumps from the manhole, the manhole will be uncovered thereafter. It now acts as a hole.
