Coral Discovery

Description of Vessel:

  The Coral Discovery is a keelboat capable of carrying 7 Medium Creatures. The frame is made of oak and the planking is made of pine. There is a small cabin furnished with 3 beds, 3 chests, and a small storage area for additional dry goods. The main area of the ship has 12 rows of pinewood benches for comfort and an oil lantern hangs from the mast, casting bright light across the ship. The Coral Discovery is a small sailing vessel that can be operated by a single person. It is perfect for exploration and is less expensive to operate than larger ships.  

History of Vessel:

  Barden Puddlejumper had been obsessed with coral reefs ever since he first saw them on his trip from Tempessi to Volkyr. When he was left a small fortune from his mothers, he commissioned the construction of the Coral Discovery and devoted his life to exploring the coral reefs of Wonder. It was on one of these exploration voyages that he stumbled upon Songs End Reef. Songs End Reef is located in the Sea of Lava's Kiss, East of the Fountain Dominion. Though many now know that Songs End Reef is occupied by a harem of siren's, the crew of the Coral discovery abandoned ship to answer the siren's call. They were never heard from again.
