Information
Aside from pirates and barrels of rum, the ship also included merchants, shops, raffles and gambling. One of the merchants sold something that had not been seen in the lands afore - skin glue. This glue could be used to adhere gems to one's forehead.
Other services and wares included:
- Wandering tattoos
- Animal companion grooming
- Premium-only auction
- Skull rings (for locking containers)
- Bubble flares
- Sonic alterations for bards
- EzScript raffle
- Critial weighting of weapons
Pets and the like could also be obtained:
- Lizard pets
- Fish pets in fishbowls
- Fireflies and firefly containers
Adventurers were offered the opportunity to join the pirate crew. Those interested would get a map of the vessel and told to get to know the ship and its crew. Many found this task quite puzzling. Those that completed this effort would have a temporary prename title of Boatswain. The new crew-members would also be gifted with a glass bottle that proved to be useful for passing along messages.
As can often be expected at such events, other merchants quickly set up tents and stalls near the docks in the Landing.
