Marjory the Trash Heap is a wise being (referred to as an “oracle”) that serves as the garbage dump of the Gorgs. She and her heckling heralds live near the Gorgs’ garden, and she gives the Fraggles guidance and advice, which the Fraggles regard with reverence, although they do not worship her. She also appears to have some magical abilities (specifically telepathy and the ability to teleport items or Fraggles), although she does not often use them. Sometimes she knits to pass the time. She has an uncle named Maximillian (which was somehow spelled with a “silent Q”), whom she refers to as “Uncle Max”. Although being made of the Gorgs’ junk, and having no real need for clothing, Philo and Gunge occasionally lavish her with jewellery (headbands and bracelets made of random objects), and she often looks at her Fraggle clientele through a pair of spectacles mounted on a stick.
