Men and women of many races, from many walks of life will meet up to helm their own ship, of many possible sorts.

Men and dwarves, working side by side with blackpowder weapons ready to defend their heavy ship, to halflings and gnomes, on fast, speedy stealth ships that can raid their sworn enemies and escape just as easily, and even tribal elves and half breeds, on sleek island hoppers capable of moving fast and smooth. And every sort of group and band in between on many sorts of vessels are possible, and such things can escalate into tales fitting to become the future legends that children grow up on, pretending to be the great heroes and legends of yore. Such will be your tale, in one form or another.

The Allied Cities of Ilsud: These people of varying races have banded together to keep themselves from becoming oppressed under a imperial thumb. They are craftsmen warriors farmer and everything inbetween.

The Chineworth Company: A large company consisting of manufacturers miners merchant vessels, and even privateers.

Sunburst Trading Company: A company of merchants and privateers who while have a reputable business, are sometimes just as bad as pirates when it comes to competition.

Ashur’s Ventures: Ashur being a old one eyed orc started a mercenary company of sorts that runs everything from protection to hunting down trouble pirates. He pays okay, but he tells people they should probably salvage what they can on their runs.

Black Shield Boomers: A company of Privateers that have some very fancy ships. They hunt down pirates and even do a little pirating themselves on the side… Don’t say that to their faces though.

This setting is enthralling. Can we get more info on gnomes? How advanced is their technology? What resource are they mining underwater? Do they actually have submersibles comparable to diesel subs or are we talking about diving bells here?

They're using diving bells that are very LARGE versions of a diving bell. And they have created a sort of hose that connects the bell to the surface. Beneath the bell they begin to open up the ground and use a composite of materials that is combined with wood to be sealed water tight and in affect create a tunnel under the giant bell that is effectively water proof. The resource they are mining underwater i'd rather keep secret and only give that knowledge to character who would be privy to it. Some steam technology can be seen, but nothing more than that.

That sounds awesome, Fallen. I like how you're holding firm to the 17th century privateer themes. One more question since asking serves to bump the thread. What is the role of magic in world in general and sea faring in particular? Does every ship have a mage on board to spam gust of wind at the sails, scry the horizon and the like or are mages more rare than this in the world?

Mages aren't rare but they're usually more expensive to hire. So well off pirates have them and normally only like the better off companies can afford to hire them for vessels. Mages are required to be on Military vessels though

OOC is up. read through it for some added character creation info. Btw i suggest people finding the stormwrack book to look at armors.better for seafaring as they don't deteriorate like regular PHB armor
