Lady Sada Fuugaru ~ The Groom's Mother

Baku Migata ~ The Groom's Best Friend
Umami Sasuma ~ The Matchmaker
Father Kazuki Honda ~ The Priest
Jori Shizuoka ~ The Missing Bride

THE SETS
Fuubaki Villiage ~ A small, rural villiage in Fuubaki Prefecture. Home of the Fuugaru Estate.
Fuugaru Estate ~ Site of the wedding, a modest Lord's estate.
Gumoru Shrine ~ Quiet Shinto shrine nestled in the Hoshien Mountains. Not far from the Joren Falls.
Joren Falls ~ Beautiful series of waterfalls in the Hoshien Mountains.

THE SETUP
On the day of her wedding, Jori Shizuoka, was attacked by three floating male heads, and dragged off
in front of her groom and his family. The wedding was arranged by a Matchmaker, and attended primarily by the
groom's family, as the bride was from a southern prefecture and her family was unable to make the trip.
Hoshi Fuugaru; Saw his bride spirited away by Yokai in the form of severed heads. While not unattractive, he is
a socially akward man in his early twenties who lives in the shadow of his overbearing father. Unable to find
a bride himself, his mother eventually sought the services of a Matchmaker who found him Jori. While he only met
her three times before the wedding, Hoshi has fallen utterly in love with Jori, whose beauty and talent with a
Biwa has him utterly charmed.
Hoshi is utterly charmed and infauted by Jori; He is both intimidated by and hates his father, who he
views as a tyrant who will never give him his chance to be a man; He loves his mother, though feels she
is overbearing and does not always know her place as a lady; Baku is his best friend and he trusts him
with a almost blind loyalty; He feels grateful to Umami though otherwise does not have much of a opinion
of the matchmaker; He feels unnerved by Father Honda, and something about the Priest makes him
uncomfortable, though he is unsure what causes it.

Lord Daisuke Fuugaru; Father of the Groom, he was nearby when his daughter in law was spirited away. Lord
Fuugaru does not believe strongly in the spirits, gods, or magic. Seeing his daughter in law taken like this has
deeply upset him and left him confused, angry, and in little mood for niceties or politics.
Lord Fuugaru thought Jori might be just the young woman to make his boy a man. He was charmed by her
poise and inner strength, and found himself feeling old longings he had not felt since his own youth.
Though he tells noone, Lord Fuugaru has become infatuated by his daughter in law; He thinks his son
more a child than man, immature and weak. His only hope is that he can live long enough to see a grand
child that might take his place; He loves his Lady both for her beauty, companionship, and inner
strength. He married her when they were both young, and though they have only had one child live to
adulthood, he has never desired another woman, until recently...; He thinks of Baku as a foolish leech
who uses his closeness with his son to live a life of previlage and leisure. If not for his wife's
pleas to leave his son's only friend be, he would have banished the boy from his Prefecture as a bad
influence years ago; Lord Fuugaru does not have much opinion on Umami, feeling that working with
matchmakers is a woman's place. He is pleased with the bride she found, espicially on short notice; He
feels indebited to Father Honda, who was a last minute replacement for the villiage priest who fell
ill days before the ceremony. He is annoyed by his son and wife's feelings of unease about the priest.

SPECIAL ABILITIES
Strong Webs (Ex) A black widows webs gain a +4 bonus to the DC to break or escape.
Bloodline Aberrant When cast a Polymorph subschool spell duration increases by 50%
Eschew Materials Gives feat
Web:Creatures with the web ability can use webs to support themselves and up to one additional creature of the same size. In
addition, such creatures can throw a web up to eight times per day. This is similar to an attack with a net but has a maximum range of
50 feet, with a range increment of 10 feet, and is effective against targets up to one size category larger than the web spinner. An
entangled creature can escape with a successful Escape Artist check or burst the web with a Strength check. Both are standard actions
with a DC equal to 10 + 1/2 the creatures HD + the creatures Con modifier. Attempts to burst a web by those caught in it take a -4
penalty.
Web spinners can create sheets of sticky webbing up to three times their size. They usually position these sheets to snare
flying creatures but can also try to trap prey on the ground. Approaching creatures must succeed on a DC 20 Perception check to
notice a web; otherwise they stumble into it and become trapped as though by a successful web attack. Attempts to escape or burst
the webbing gain a +5 bonus if the trapped creature has something to walk on or grab while pulling free. Each 5-foot-square section of
web has a number of hit points equal to the Hit Dice of the creature that created it and DR 5/-. A creature can move across its own
web at its climb speed and can pinpoint the location of any creature touching its web.
Tremorsense:A creature with tremorsense is sensitive to vibrations in the ground and can automatically pinpoint the location of
anything that is in contact with the ground. Aquatic creatures with tremorsense can also sense the location of creatures moving
through water. The abilitys range is specified in the creatures descriptive text.
Vermin traits:Mindless: No Intelligence score, and immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, morale effects,
patterns, and phantasms). Mindless creatures have no feats or skills. A vermin-like creature with an Intelligence score is usually either
an animal or a magical beast, depending on its other abilities.
Darkvision 60 feet.
Proficient with its natural weapons only.
Proficient with no armor.
