4. The World of SAMURAI PIZZA CATS
Presented here are some brief character stats as a guide
for
players. Not *all* the significant characters from the
show
are listed, and they’re not particularly comprehensive -
characters here will certainly have skills that I’ve
forgotten to include. This is just to give you an idea of
how it all works out.

===================================

LITTLE TOKYO

Some of the more important locations in Little Tokyo,
should you find yourself in the vicinity while on
vacation and unable to locate a street directory:

THE PIZZA CATS’ PIZZA PARLOUR
     This is where Little Tokyo’s first line of defence
against the forces of evil is housed. A nice
restaurant, a drive-thru window, and a giant cat-firing
gun on the roof - what more do you want?
     There are also four more Pizza Cat branches on the
outskirts of Little Tokyo - the restaurants belonging
to Spritz, Catton, Bat Cat, and Meowsma.

THE PALACE
     Base of operations for Emperor Fred, Princess Vi
and the Royal Council; Prime Minister Big Cheese and
his army of evil; and Big Al Dentei, primary patron of
the Samurai Pizza Cats.

LUCILLE’S TEA HOUSE
     Want a nice cuppa, maybe a snack, and a hostess
who explodes? Make your way here.

LIVE HOUSE SUEHIRO
     Like a bit of night-life? A rockin’ good time?
Live bands every night. Keep an eye out for Pointless
Sisters reunion specials ...

MOUNT KUJI
     (Does anyone know the “official” spelling for
that? I’m using “Kuji” because - however it’s meant to
be spelled - it’s obviously based on Mt *F*uji.) Also
known as Kuji-san if you’re feeling particularly
Japanese. A big ol’ mountain ... rumour has it that
atop its mighty peak rests some lingering evidence of a
great and ancient civilisation ...

GURU LOU’S COTTAGE
     Be careful - it tends to get wrecked a lot.

LAKE OTAMA
     There’s a scenic little village here ... watch out
for monsters, though.

MANHATTAN
     Okay, okay - so it’s not in Little Tokyo. It’s
nowhere *near* Little Tokyo. But it’s the home of the
New York Pizza Cats, so it’s important.

PRISONER ISLAND
     Somewhere out to sea ... a hideous, barren place
inhabited by the ragged, starving exiles of Little
Tokyo - criminals, vagabonds, lots and lots of people
who really never did anything wrong ... Actually, it’s
quite a nice place for a holiday.

***

Of course there are probably *lots* of places I haven’t
listed ...
