Welcome to the estate's guest wing, an intricate maze of traditional rooms separated only by sliding shoji doors. The warm glow of smoking hibachi braziers casts long shadows across the tatami mats, creating a serene yet deeply tense atmosphere for any adventuring party staying the night. Tactically, the paper-thin partitions offer zero physical cover against determined attacks or arrows, but they provide crucial visual obscurement for stealthy operations. Assassins can easily hide in the shadows near the folded futons in the corners. The highly interconnected layout allows for dynamic, flowing combat where walls can literally be smashed through to ambush enemies or create rapid escape routes. For the GM, this map is perfect for social encounters that suddenly turn violent, or tense espionage missions where eavesdropping through the thin walls is key to uncovering political plots. Keep close track of the line of sight as sliding doors are stealthily opened, slammed shut, or completely destroyed during a brawl!
