The Director of Destiny (運命ディレクター?, lit.: "Destiny Director") is a treasure in Pikmin 2, and is actually a compass. The glass covering it is shattered, and the needle is stuck in a single position. The compass does not actually point to the North as shown by the radar. The model can be pivoted by enemies such as Anode Beetles, and this will change the indicated direction. It is found on sublevel 3 of the Glutton's Kitchen, usually in an alcove. There are Breadbugs, Anode Beetles, a Puffy Blowhog, and many other electrical hazards and enemies on this sublevel that may pose a threat.
“With the help of my Pikmin, I've been able to widen the radius of my salvage search. The new areas that have opened up to exploration are far more dangerous. Just to be safe, I'd better review Pikmin traits and characteristics.

Sales pitch
“This amazing, fortune-telling device follows the flow of fate with eerie accuracy. It calculates the magnetic fields of planets, stars, and living organisms to track the pulse of destiny itself. If you're an optimist who feels that life points both south and north, this is for you!”
