Xenoblade Chronicles 
紅き死神の挑戦
紅き死神の挑戦 is NLA's city-wide scavenger hunt, hiding 99 small red ロブスターベイビー plushies on crates, rooftops, park benches, and girders solely by visual sightlines and coordinates. Tracking them down as you go spares you a long late-game search while unlocking a Level 60 boss encounter, a unique 
ホロフィギュア, and NLA survey completion.
To start the mission after Chapter 3 and 小さな悪, inspect the uncounted starter plushie (#0) behind the containers south of 
アームズ性能試験場 in the 工業エリア. Because Wave 2 (#50 to #97) only spawns after #1 through #48 and Gate #49 are collected, follow the wave checklists below in order using each spot's pause-map coordinates.
Wave 1 · #1 to #48 (Post-Chapter 3)0/48 (0%)
These first 48 plushies appear across New LA's four main districts as soon as you inspect Starter Plushie #0 after Chapter 3. Most can be picked up on foot or with a standard Skell jump, though sweeping rooftops becomes effortless once you install Flight after Chapter 9.
