Drops
Cardinal drops nothing in the game's drop rules.
Crimson woodland songbird on forest lawns
Cardinals chirp and dart across grassy Forest clearings, showing off bright scarlet plumage against the green landscape. Possessing 5 life, they take wing at the slightest provocation. Scooping up a cardinal with a Bug Net preserves the specimen to build a Cardinal Cage or trade with town merchants for pocket change.
Trivia
- Cardinals appear exclusively on surface grass during standard daytime hours.
