A Birthday Card is a folded greeting card with a birthday cake and candles on the front. It is a memento with one blank page inside for a short message.

The card is light and easy to carry. Its use is small but personal: a note, a reminder or a message left for someone else. Paper burns, so a spare card can also feed a fire for a few minutes.

Gift stores and pharmacies stock cards in large numbers on their magazine shelves.

Using


The card holds one page of writing. A character with something to write with can write a note on it from the inventory menu. That makes it handy for a label, a short list or a message left at a meeting point.

As a keepsake, a card with a written message makes a thoughtful gift between survivors. Its weight is low enough to keep one in a bag without notice.

The card also works as a small piece of fuel. It burns for about three minutes in a fire.

The Birthday Card belongs to a family of greeting cards, including the Christmas Card, Easter Card, Halloween Card and Valentine's Card.

Locations


Gift store magazine shelves are the best place, holding cards most of the time. Pharmacy magazine shelves come a close second. Gift store, toy store and toy storage shelves hold cards about one time in three. Post boxes, attics, closets, garages and living rooms turn up the odd card. Cards are a common find in any town with shops.
