Ochimo: The Spirit Warrior is an AD&D: Oriental Adventures module for characters of levels 5-7. The characters start out from the island nation of Kozakura (the OA version of Japan) and travel to an island belonging to the nation of Shou Lung (OA China). The Shou Lung colony planted on the Island has been experiencing hauntings and strange visions, and the house in charge of the island want the party to investigate the situation and correct it. But, there is more at work here than a simple haunting, and the party will need a lot of luck and even more skill if they are going to even survive!

This is a very good Oriental Adventures module, the best one that I have seen so far! The Dungeon Master will be called on to do a lot of role playing, and the players will be required to think carefully on what is going on and ensure that they handle everything correctly.

I really enjoyed the way that the spirits are used in the module, and found the chief villain to be quite interesting. Of most interest is the Dead Lands - no spoilers here, but it was quite a wild addition.

Like I said, this is probably the best of the Oriental Adventures module, and I highly recommend it!

The finest adventure in the Oriental Adventures series of the Forgotten Realms! Your family is honor-bound to aid their saviors, the Ko Clan of Shou Lung. When the Ko are "asked" by the Celestial Emperor to populate a new isle for the Empire, they respectfully oblige. Unfortunately, dire hauntings are taking place there that are placing the entire mission in jeopardy. Your family proudly sends forth their finest to deal with the evil... a wonderful adventure for levels 5-7.
