Summary
Arata Tominogoshi looks upset as he walks
across the compound. He stops everyone he encoun-
ters and asks them a specific question about a visitor.
When he encounters the PC(s), he asks them for as-
sistance with a very private manner.
PART 1 “Twenty Questions”
Location: Tominogoshi Compound
On a particular moonlit night, the group is leav-
ing the Tominogoshi Theater/Dining hall, when in
the distance Arata Tominogoshi can be seen having,
what looks like, a pretty intense discussion with some
fellow classmates. As the PC(s) walk, Arata Tom-
inogoshi concludes his discussion had heads their
way. Along his way another small group of students
crosses his path. He stops to talk to the group of
three students. A short while later, he stops talking to
them and makes his way toward the PC(s).
ARATA TOMINOGOSHI
You there. Have you seen Itsuki Hamasaki? He is a
guest here at our home. He is wearing a gold neck-
lace.
ARATA After the PC(s) answer
Listen, I need your help. Itsuki Hamasaki is here on
the grounds. I need you to find him. See, if he knew
I was looking for him, he would hide what I am sure
he’s stolen from me. What I need you to do is to find
him, and see if he is wearing my golden necklace.
Don’t try to engage him, he’d eat you all alive, and
be wanting seconds. Just find him and let me know
where he is. I’ll take care of the rest. Don’t worry,
I’ll pay you. Help me find him, will ya?

“The Search is On”
Location: Tominogoshi Compound
The group begins its search for Itsuki Hamasaki
around the compound. Though it is night the com-
pound is still very much alive with students walking
around and socializing with one another.
GM NOTE: Identify the location Itsuki Hamasaki
will be found. Guide the characters around until they
find the character of Interest.
PART 3 “Here, There and Everywhere”
Location: Tominogoshi Compound
The PC(s) make contact with a student. He is
walking swiftly through the compound as if he is go-
ing to the guard tower. The PC(s) were able to stop
him on his journey. After asking of the whereabouts
of Itsuki Hamasaki the student will think to himself
before answering.
TOMINOGOSHI STUDENT
Ya know… I think I did see him. Yeah! Now that
you mention it, the man you describe was heading to
the Theater. Well, at least I think it was him. No, I
pretty sure it was. You should find him there. Good
luck, I gotta get to the watch tower before I get my-
self into trouble. See ya later.
With that, the man walks away swiftly. Leaving
the PC(s) to head with their new information. A
quick walk across the campus the group finds them-
selves face-to-face with the Tominogoshi Theater.
There is no sign of Itsuki Hamasaki outside so the
group heads inside to search.
Inside the building a sign hangs that reads there is
to be no show tonight. Across the hall, a group of
students are laughing and carrying on about an event
that just passed.
TOMINOGOSHI STUDENT #1
HAHAHAHAHAAA!!! Did you see that guy?!! Oh
my goodness, what did he eat?!!! I gotta make sure I
don’t eat it!
TOMINOGOSHI STUDENT #2
It had to be some kind of allergy. Nobody runs away
with that kind of urgency! Wasn’t that Master
Arata’s guest?!!
