Ideas
Windy629 There is one more thing you can try. Go back to any mausoleum and enter. If you keep doing it, the card may show up. After completing the collection the first time, I changed households to Vlad's because I wanted to see if vampires had gotten any new options (they didn't). To speed things up, I added a mausoleum on the lot. While I had other sims doing other things, I sent Vlad into the mausoleum to see if I could get the cards you get from those and was surprised that I when I started getting cards that you got doing the errands and/or other places. So, I kept sending him in just to see if I could get all of them. That didn't work out, but I only had to do only two of the errands as I already had the rest of them from the mausoleum. You can still do the errands later if you want to but you just don't get the card again when you complete the errand. I also got the Wands card that I had bought from the stall vendor at Magic HQ the first time. You could also try doing that if you have Realm of Magic. So, maybe doing those things will give you the missing card. It might not work but it's probably worth a try anyway.
Hope this helps

Okay, I'm willing to try anything. I do have Realm of magic, so I'll go look around there, as well as the crypts.
It's maddening, because it's the first card everyone needs to get started on the quest. Without that one, I shouldn't have any.
I'll definitely give your suggestions a whirl tonight! Fingers crossed.
Thank you!

Windy629 Actually, I don't think you have to do it that way. When I traveled to Ravenwood the first time, I landed on the lot with the 2 female ghosts and while I was talking to them, I saw the options for the errands on Esther. So, I clicked on it and did those first. Along the way, I found other cards as I was working on the aspiration at the same time and went into the crypt and my sim seemed to get stuck in there because I couldn't seem to make the right choice needed to get him out. (I thought it worked like it did for getting to Sylvan Glade or the Grotto. I found out later that all that I needed to do was cancel the queue action, which I never thought of at the time 🤦♂️). Anyway, I had four or five cards before I even saw the shrine and clicked on it. It was one of those "Hmmm, wonder what that does" type of things, Lol! Based on what I found when I was playing through the 2nd time with Vlad, I'm of the opinion that there is more than one way to find any given card particularly if you keeping searching in the crypt. So, don't give up.
And I thought of something else you might want to try. Switch households and play another sim to gather the cards and complete the collection. Then go back to the first household and try again to find the missing card. Idk if that will work but if don't find the missing card right now, it might reset things and give you the card when you try again.
Hope this helps.

I tried the things you mentioned in your previous post, and no luck. I spent a good long time in the crypts, not a single card. I don't know if this is of any significance but the glass on the crypt to the right of the cemetery is lit and has images of Grim. The others are dark. I used the Grim one. I'll try the others.
I also tried to reset (shift click?) the Shrine, but nothing changed.
Now that I see your last post and your not finding the shrine card first, renews my hope for the crypt. I've gone to the 'Order' folks to see if I could redo some of their requests, but they are all blanked out.
I'll try your last suggestion. That will take a little longer, but it's worth a shot. The only reason I'm intent on getting this set, for this Sim, is I've spent sooo much time, building all her skills, she's maxed out most of them, She's a the top of her Scientist career, Her garden is Magnificent, I think you get the idea, lol. She's rich, (just had twins) and I don't want to leave this career until she got everything from Sixum (?) and Space. Then I'll switch her to Spellcaster for those collection items. It's not that important, I just thought I'd ask.
For now, I'm off to a new household, as you suggested.
Fingers crossed!!
