Trust, Betrayal, and Destiny on the Slopes of Mount Fuji

Winter grips Mount Fuji, and the dreaded Mountain Witch waits in his fortress of ice and shadow. You are ronin — masterless samurai — hired for the impossible: climb the mountain, slay the witch, and claim the reward. But as the snow deepens and the path grows perilous, you’ll discover the greatest threat may not be the witch at all.

Every warrior carries a hidden destiny. Every ally has a secret agenda. Can you build enough trust to survive the mountain — or will betrayal cut deeper than any blade?

A tense, story-driven role-playing game of honor, suspicion, and fate. No prior experience required.

The haunted tales of the demons that inhabit Castle Shirasagi have kept people away for generations. As the cruel hand of the Shogun casts the shadow of unrest over the land, the Castle is visited once more by mortals.

This scenario is set in medieval Japan filled with fantastical elements from folklore. It tells a dark tale of horror, tragedy, heroism and romance which explores what happens when the inhabitants from two worlds that should never co-exist come together.

The characters use their swords, magic, love, loyalty, duty and intrigue as they struggle to survive the threats that besiege them from without, as well as that from the other characters, the people they care about and themselves.

The scenario is based on the Kabuki play called "Tenshu Monogatari". It uses the Tenra Bansho Zero system, which is a highly regarded Japanese RPG, recently translated into English.
