Bet Urala: Well known Healer
The Forsaken
She is a well-built ship out of the City of Zoa. Its current captain is Haager Pocaat. Captain Pocaat is a giant of a Reanaarian, he stands an uncommon 6'4". The ship is a cog mechant vessel and can sail about 2 mph or 48 miles a day. The Forsaken often brings goods for trade to and from Zoa. The crew is a total of 22, 18 sailors, 3 officers, and the captain.
Travel on board the ship is typically uncomfortable, much like most cargo ships of its type. At sea most go about the ship unarmed, although there are enough weapons in the armory to equip the crew. A few of the crew can be seen with knives and all of them are handy with a belaying pin. Which are plentiful on board.
Ship Details
Foredeck
A small rise in the deck leaves space for storage of the 400 pound anchor and chain. The ship has no capstan.
Dingy
A small 10 foot-long dingy is lashed to the deck. Inside are 4 sets of oars.
Deck Cover
The large hatch cover takes up the main deck of the ship with a small hatch built into it. When the ship is being loaded or unloaded the entire wooden cover is removed. In bad weather, a tarpaulin is pulled taught over the whole thing to keep water out.
Main Mast
The mast rises over 60 feet above the main deck thought the vessel has no crow’s nest. A sailor can straddle the gaff to keep watch. There is no boom.
Forward Mast
The forward mast 20 ft. with a triangle sail it helps steer the ship.
Quarterdeck
Two ladders lead up to this area from the main deck. A door in the deck leads from the main deck to the companionway.

Helm
A helmsman mans the tiller at all time. Usually one can find the captain here on his watch, advising the helmsman.
Companionway
A small hatch leads down into the cargo deck.
Sail Locker
The sail locker holds enough sail and rigging to completely replace the sheet and rope already used. This area also doubles as the weapons locker.
Galley
A small stove and pantry are here. Food is stored in this place as well.
Mates’ Cabins
Home to the two mates of the ship, each of these small rooms holds a hammock, footlocker, desk, and stool. The port cabin is the first mate’s and the starboard is the second mate's.
Captain’s Cabin
By far the largest private space on the ship, this cabin has a small desk and chair, a wardrobe, a footlocker, and two small storage cabinets. Due to the curve of the ship's aft deck, the room contains a small loft, upon which sits a small bunk; the only real bed on board. Four portholes look out of the room.
Crew Quarters
The crew quarters are forward, complete with triple hammocks, the highest are at a height of almost 10 feet above the deck. A long table surrounded by stools in one corner and there are 30 small sea chests with clothing and personal belongings of the crew.
Hold
The cargo deck holds water barrels and pumps aft. The hold itself is normally full of bolts of silk and cotton and large boards of teak and mahogany. Everything is securely lashed down. Ladders lead up to deck hatches lead down to the bilge.
Bilge
The bilge is only 2 ft. deep and filled with large rocks, and sand, with some water that has seeped into the ship.
