Trashmannium (element)

Trashmannium (scientific notation: Bo↓) is an element that makes up the souls of trashmen, along with the element of Soul.

Why don't trashmen have normal souls?

Trashmen don't have normal Bo-based souls, because "trashman" is a word defined to refer to beings with Trashmannium based souls. Since Trashmannium is a Regressed element, it is naturally attracted to other trash-type elements. This causes trashmen to feel physical and mental discomfort, often described to be of a supernatural or divine nature, when they are in a clean environment. Often they reflexively begin finding trash and throwing it around the room. In extreme cases, they may even begin vomiting trash. This was used for perpetual energy generation at some point, but people stopped doing it when they realized trashmen have souls.

Physical properties

When extracted and compressed, Trashmannium is a translucent liquid with an acrid sweat-like scent. Some guy tasted it, reporting it tasted like salt and feet. Over the next few weeks, he became increasingly trashman-like, eventually turning him into trash-based demi-god, losing himself completely.
