That Which Lurks

In the far-flung islands of Hamato in the Forgotten Realms, a river village named Yae is gripped by a lurking menace in the water, and villagers have gone missing in this, the fourth adventure published in the Hamato Islands series.  Can you solve the mystery and save the village?

This module includes:

• A four hour one-shot adventure, optimized for 3-7 party members at levels 1-4, with options to adjust difficulty based on APL and party size.
• Monster stat blocks for each encounter, including Japanese legendary monsters such as the kappa and tengu.
• Optional side quests, shopping opportunities, social interaction in the town of Yae and more.
• Features unique items native to the Hamato Islands: the omamori talisman, wakizashi blade and more.
• Includes brief DM guide to the Hamato Islands, lore, fauna and culture.

That which lurks in the waters of Yae will not rest, and neither should you.

Update note: version 2 includes updates to monster stat blocks and updates to time estimates, as well as some clerical corrections.  Thanks to user feedback as always!

What Are The Hamato Islands?

The Hamato Islands are a reimagining of the old Forgotten Realms kingdoms of "Wa" and "Kozakura", which resided on the fringes of the contient of Kara-Tur.  United under one Imperial banner now, peace and stability reign on the Islands, and travelers from the Sword Coast are just beginning to  trickle in.  This is a land not well understood by Faerunians, and provides many opportunities for adventure, but players can also play characters native to the Hamato Islands using the Traveler's Guide for tips on character conversion and cultural tips to help flesh out character concepts.
