The Platinum Yendorian Express Card is the tourist quest artifact. It is neutral for wishing purposes. Its base item type is a credit card.

When carried, the Card confers magic resistance, telepathy and half spell damage. Invoking the Card charges objects just like the scroll of charging. However, only tourists can perform blessed charging.

This artifact is a reference to the Commodore 64 version of the game Wizardry, whose manual states that players start with limited gold because "few adventurers have a Platinum Yendorian Express Card."
