+# Pac-cogs - RedBot Cogs Collection
+
+Welcome to **Pac-cogs**, a collection of custom cogs for [RedBot](https://github.com/Cog-Creators/Red-DiscordBot). These cogs are designed to add extra functionality to your RedBot instance on Discord.
+
+## Cogs Overview
+
+| Cog Name   | Description                                      |
+|------------|--------------------------------------------------|
+| **Birthday** | Assigns a special birthday role to users and sends a celebratory message with random cake or pie emojis. Automatically removes the birthday role at midnight, with a configurable timezone. Offers the option to set a specific announcement channel and restricts usage to specified roles. Users can assign the role without needing a higher role in the hierarchy. |
