  3. lay bed              recline on a bed or couch (awake)
  4. sleep                drift off on a bed you are lying on (help sleep)

Look lists everyone with positional state: Carl is standing here, an Oil-Walker is unconscious here, [INCAP] … is incapacitated here.
When someone is fighting, look also shows who they are focused on:
  a figure is standing here (attacking Shent).
When someone is working or training, look also shows what they are doing:
Andy is sitting here working on the computer, Sam is doing pushups.
When you have approached or retreated from someone, look names that distance:
  an Overturned Remand is standing close to you / keeping their distance from you (help approach).

Walking away silently stands you up. Fighting blocks sit and lay.
Town nest lurkers and case crooks still use anonymous faces until you introduce or work the case -- dungeon mobs show catalog names (help wilderness).
