Synopsis

The surgeon in charge of the hospital, Dr. Tenaka, is a cultist. He has removed and replaced the organs of his patients.

Assisting Dr. Tenaka is a group of Tcho-Tchos. They have a lair underneath the hospital.

If the Tcho-Tchos notice that the Investigators have left their recovery room, they will follow the orders of Dr. Tenaka to capture them. However, if one of the Tcho-Tchos is killed, the others will summon a Star Vampire to hunt down and kill the Investigators.

Keeper Comments

The Investigators will first notice that their eyesight has been altered by their operation. The effects caused by other "adjustments" (e.g. loss of appetite) are more subtle so the final reveal should (hopefully) come as a surprise.
