 OVERVIEW

DOCTOR Y AND D
octor Yan-ting (Doctor Y) with the Bujutsu
Corporation has discovered a potential
cure for the jiangshi virus. The Kanawa

THE JIANGSHI
Corporation, having uncovered the Bujutsu
Corporation’s potential cure, raids the lab and
takes all the employees of the Bujutsu Corporation
as hostages. The Storm Knights must find the
survivors of the Bujutsu Corporation (who are
allies of the Delphi Council), make their way
to the underwater base where Doctor Y and his
colleagues are being held, and free them. Once
they return to the surface, Doctor Y assists them
in returning to his secret lab within the Bujutsu
Corporation. There, they uncover the cure, which
is not a medicine but Doctor Y himself who is
infected with a mutated strain of the the jiangshi
virus. The Storm Knights must make some
difficult decisions in the final scene.

ACT ONE: WELCOME TO KYOTO

SCENE ONE:
DOCTOR WHO?
Standard Scene: Pan-Pacifica Dominant Zone
The Storm Knights receive an encrypted e-mail
from the Delphi Council. Once decrypted, a
process with which the Storm Knights are familiar,
they read the following message:
Storm Knights:
The Delphi Council has been working with the
Bujutsu Corporation—a medical research company
with ideals that align with our own—since just after
the invasion. They are taking measures to counter
many of the goals we believe the Kanawa Corporation
is working towards. Recently, one of their lead
researchers, Doctor Yan-ting, made breakthroughs
on an antiviral drug for the jiangshi virus. Shortly
after the Bujutsu Corporation informed us of this
discovery, they went silent. We suspect the Kanawa
Corporation or another rival is responsible.
Your mission is to find out what happened to the
Bujutsu Corporation. If possible, make contact and
protect the Doctor and his research. If he did discover
a cure for the virus, he and his research are invaluable.
Enclosed is a picture of the Doctor.
