Magazine: HottieZ is a worn adult picture magazine, found tucked away in homes and camps. It is a piece of literature that a survivor reads to lift the mood.
The magazine is mostly pictures, and a browse eases stress and boredom together. Its pull on stress is the stronger of the two. It weighs very little and makes a welcome find after a long day.
These are the old, hidden copies of the magazine. A fresh store copy has its own page as HottieZ.
Most turn up hidden under bedroom floor planks, and truckers often carry one.
Reading
Magazine: HottieZ is looked at rather than read. A short browse brings a large drop in stress and a solid drop in boredom. It suits a quiet hour at a base after a run through a busy town.
Because it is a picture book, a character with the Illiterate trait can still enjoy it. Its effect on mood matches the fresh HottieZ copy found in stores. Both lower stress far more than a Magazine: Crossword does.
A spare copy also burns as fuel in a fire.
Locations
Bedroom plank stashes are the best bet, holding one about half the time. Zombies dressed as truckers carry one in about one time in eleven. Army tent lockers and survivor safehouses turn one up now and then, even in fireplaces, fridges and freezers. Prison cells, bathrooms, janitor's rooms, school storage and Zippee storage counters hold one only rarely. Strip clubs and school lockers are long shots.
The places where it spawns, with the rough chance per container. Each tab shows one kind of place.
