Piratecat
Sesquipedalian
My group has a pirate ship that also is a larger-than-normal folding boat. They also have an air keel, a magic item that I pulled out of my butt which (when attached to a ship) allows the ship to fly. They want to insert Tab A into Slot B, and this brings up all kinds of interesting and esoteric questions... all of which would be easier for me to answer if I could find my copy of Mongoose's Seas of Blood.
Darrrrr.... Suggestions are welcomed!
1. What's reasonable for a small pirate ship -- 50'? 60'?
2. If you head down to your local shipyard and buy/commission a fast 50' or 60' ship, how much would that ship cost?
3. If folding boats really only cost 7200 gp, much cheaper than a similarly sized boat (I believe), how come every merchant in the world doesn't have one?
4. How much would you increase the cost if you doubled the size of the standard folding boat (48' long, 16' wide)?
5. If you had the aforementioned air keel, do you think it's reasonable that it could be enchanted to fold with the rest of the boat for the cost of a standard folding boat (7200 gp)?
6. What enchantment would you add to an air keel to stop its magic from being temporarily nullified by a dispel magic (which would drop the ship)?
Thanks for any help you can offer!
