The '''Director of Destiny''' ({{j|運命ディレクター|Unmei Direkutaa|Destiny Director}}) is a [[treasure]] in {{p2}} and {{p4}}. It is actually a {{w|compass}}, and is found on the third sublevel of the [[Glutton's Kitchen]] in ''Pikmin 2'' and on the first sublevel of the [[Last-Frost Cavern]] in ''Pikmin 4''. In ''Pikmin 2'', the glass covering it is shattered, and the needle is stuck in a single position. In ''Pikmin 4'', it is instead a still-intact compass, with black coloring and proper labels. In ''Pikmin 2'', the compass does not actually point to the North as shown by the radar; the model can be pivoted by enemies such as [[Anode Beetle]]s, and this will change the indicated direction.

== Collecting the treasure ==
{{guide}}

=== ''Pikmin 2'' ===
The Director of Destiny is found on [[Sublevel]] 3 of the [[Glutton's Kitchen]], usually in an alcove. There are [[Breadbug]]s, [[Anode Beetle]]s, a [[Puffy Blowhog]], and many other electrical hazards and enemies on this sublevel that may pose a threat.

=== ''Pikmin 4'' ===

It is on a ledge in a clay pot near the beginning of sublevel 1 of the [[Last-Frost Cavern]] in the [[Sun-Speckled Terrace]]. To collect this treasure, you must throw 7 Pikmin at it. It can also be knocked down with a [[rush]] from [[Oatchi]].

{{transcript|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.
