The surrender verb has both roleplaying and functional elements.

Locker Mechanics

If a player finds themselves in a locker that they cannot close because there are more items in it than the locker can currently hold, the player can SURRENDER items. This may happen if a player downgrades from premium or if a SimuCoin locker contract ends. The items will be sent to their local justice office and stored in a box like those that hold a character's items after being arrested. This follows the same mechanics as if the character were arrested, with the confiscated items getting cleaned away eventually, so it is not permanent storage. However, it should help players in such a situation manage their transition a bit easier. The syntax is SURRENDER {item}, followed by a confirmation. Only characters with overfull lockers can do this.

The surrendered items will remain in the box for 2 weeks.
