Garderobe (Mobius version) (AngieYaz Sonic Underground reboot)

Garderobe is a historic term for a room in a medieval Mobian castle. The Oxfo Britannican Dictionary gives as its first meaning a store-room for valuables, but also acknowledges "by extension, a private room, a bed-chamber; also a privy".
The word derives from the Francian garde de robes, meaning "robes (or clothing) protector": thus, a closet or a toilet seat that would tend to prevent clothing from getting soiled.
Its most common use now is as a term for a castle toilet.
==Store room==
Garderobe is the Francian word for "wardrobe", a lockable place where clothes and other items are stored. According to medieval architecture scholars at Mobius University, garderobes were "Properly, not a latrine or privy but a small room or large cupboard, usually adjoining the chamber [bedroom] or solar [living room] and providing safe-keeping for valuable clothes and other possessions of price: cloth, jewels, spices, plate and money."
==Toilet==
The term garderobe is also used to refer to a medieval or Renaissance toilet or a close stool. In a medieval castle, a garderobe was usually a simple hole discharging to the outside into a cesspit (akin to a pit latrine) or the moat (like a fish pond toilet), depending on the structure of the building. Such toilets were often placed inside a small chamber, leading by association to the use of the term garderobe to describe the rooms. Many can still be seen in Norman and medieval castles and fortifications, for example at Bürres Castle in Cleviasium, where three garderobes are still visible. Unlike Earth's medieval garderobes, Mobian garderobe toilets are connected to a pipe that leads down into a "sewer" made of stone. This reduces the spread of illness.
A description of the garderobe at Doneg Castle indicates that while it was in use, it was believed that ammonia would protect visitors' coats and cloaks from moths or fleas.
