Soap is a bar of household soap used for washing. It speeds up cleaning dirty and bloody clothing with water.
Every survivor needs clean clothes sooner or later. Fighting and daily work leave clothing dirty and bloody. Dirty clothing worn over an open wound raises the chance of infection. Soap makes the washing faster and keeps that risk down.
Soap is one of the easiest items to find. Nearly every kitchen counter in a restaurant, bar or cafe holds a bar.
Using
Soap is used together with water to wash. It cleans dirt and blood from clothing. With soap on hand the job goes faster than with water alone.
Washing matters most for a survivor who takes wounds. Clean clothes over a bandaged cut lower the chance of the wound becoming infected. A bar of soap in the pack makes it easy to wash up wherever there is water.
Upkeep
A bar gives about twenty uses before it is gone. Each washing uses some of it. A partly used bar stays a separate item from a new one, so worn bars pile up in the pack.
Locations
Commercial kitchens are the surest place to look. Counters in bakeries, bars, cafes, cafeterias, diners, burger and fried food kitchens hold a bar almost every time. Butcher shops, candy stores, break rooms and dining rooms are just as reliable. It is a very common find in any town.
