Welcome to the world of Dravon. Much like our own world this planet is covered in water, nearly 70% of it to be exact. Though there are the wonders of magic, spells do not have the great power they do in some worlds. There are no spells of teleportation and even simple things like flight can only get you so far.<br/><br/>Civilization had always been isolated to the major continents or islands it evolved on and though sea travel was not unheard of, ships never really had the endurance to survive in the powerful ocean waters. That is until around 50 years ago.<br/><br/>With the advent of new ship designs augmented with newly researched arcane spells, ocean going vessels had finally become a reality. Finally the technique to design heavy bastions that could survive the crashing vengeful waves of the ocean was a reality.<br/><br/>Manning these newly fashioned ships and wielding the magic’s needed to keep them sailing in the fickle winds of the ocean, people of the world set out to explore and chart the world, finding its long hidden mysteries and untold treasures.<br/><br/>Now it is the year 1262, for 50 years ships have ruled the coasts around the continent of Sastigaria and it has been merely 5 years since the great navigator Ernst returned from his circumnavigation of the Globe. He brought back stories of wondrous civilizations and a treasure trove of trinkets and magical items.<br/><br/>The major powers of the land have spent the last few years building fleets and preparing to chart routes to these new found civilizations in hopes of trade or conquest, everyone is rushing to find the hidden wonders of the world and map it in the name of their own country or company.<br/><br/>This is where your group comes in. Each of you for your own reasons has felt the pull or desire to travel the globe, be it for fortune or glory. Perhaps you wish to make a name for yourself, or maybe you have a past you wish to leave behind. Maybe you’re chasing a dream or running from something. Regardless all of you share  the same common purpose, to discover the world and find its riches.<br/><br/>All of you have had a crash course in naval tactics, certainly nothing like a trained seaman but enough to handle the ship and hopefully keep you from drowning to death if you fell overboard.<br/><br/>The ship its self is a very basic craft. A typical exploration vessel that has been fitted with enchanted sails that will always propel the ship forward even in zero wind. It’s fairly small and couldn’t handle a serious naval battle, but it does have a reinforced hull with armor enchantments to make sure it stays upright even in the nastiest gales or waves.<br/><br/>The ship is fitted with a special emergency return spell. This spell is to be used only in the direst of situations such as being hopelessly lost at sea. If the spell is activated via the shattering of a small crystal in the captain’s quarters, it will draw a magic circle of energy around the ship. After several minutes the ship will teleport back to the home harbor it originated from.<br/><br/>The draw backs to this spell is that it will take up to a week to re-enchant the ship at a cost of 10,000G and anything carried within the ship will be lost as the ship will only return with its passengers.<br/><br/><br/><div align="center"><strong>Let's get to know your ship</strong><br/>(http://nautarch.tamu.edu/shiplab/01George/caravela/pictures/01Caravels%20off%20Gold%20Coast-Elbl%201994.jpg)<br/>HP: 200<br/>AC: 2<br/>Hardness: 5<br/>Sailing speed: Proximately 120 miles per day<br/><br/>Weapons: Ballista- 3D8 damage with a 19-20 crit range.
