The Marker - Blue is a felt-tip marker with blue ink. It is a writing tool, used mostly to mark up maps.

Any survivor who keeps notes on a map can use one. It adds notes and symbols in blue to the world map and to paper maps. It weighs very little, so it costs nothing to carry.

Blue markers are found in schools, stores and homes. The marker comes in four colours, each with its own page: black, blue, green and red.

Using

With the marker in the inventory, a map can take notes and symbols. A writing tool is needed to add, edit or move a mark. Editing or moving a mark also needs an Eraser. Removing a mark takes only the Eraser.

Blue is one of the five colours a map mark can take. The others are black, grey, red and green. A blue marker gives map notes their own colour, which keeps them apart from marks made in pencil or black ink. Blue is a natural fit for wells, rivers and fishing spots.

Locations

Side tables in any building hold one now and then. General store shelves are about as good. School classrooms of every kind keep them on counters, shelves and metal shelves. Pencil cases, Gigamart shelves and book store counters turn them up less often. Post offices, daycares and some staff lockers hold them rarely. It is a common find overall, since so many places stock it.
