[QUOTE="SnowleopardVK, post: 5631080, member: 6677945"] This was my attempt at creating a ship for a game of mine that ended recently. The players weren't aware of most of these details, but I figure since the game is now over I may as well post up my notes about it and see how I did. The ship is designed to carry 75 people at most, it's supposed to be run by a crew of 40, and takes at the very least a crew of 20. The ship was being used in an evacuation because the PCs were stupid and unleashed a horrible ancient evil back on the island they were at (they weren't supposed to) and was short on crew members, but my logic is that the warriors on the crew are each able to take a commoner or two under their wing and instruct them well enough to pass as replacement crew. I unfortunately don't know much about ships, so I have no idea how big it is or what type of ship it is beyond "the type big enough to carry 75 people". Fortunately I never really needed to have a detailed knowledge, as the PCs didn't really care. To them the ship was just a means of getting to their next destination, and so this info that I created was all "just in case". Heck, the only three people on the entire ship they interacted with were the first mate, the illusionist, and the prisoner. Anyways, here's my quick notes on the people on board: The Jackrabbit: 60 on board Crew: 15 1 Captain (Elf Rogue/Fighter 4/7) 1 First Mate (Human Fighter 9th level) 1 Navigator (Half-Elf Ranger 6th level) 3 Human Experts (2 6th level, 1 7th level) 1 Dwarf Expert (6th level) 4 Human Warriors (5th level) 1 Dwarf Warrior (5th level) 1 Lizardfolk Warrior (7th level) 1 Gillman Warrior (6th level) 1 Elf Adept (8th level) Passengers: 45 26 Human Commoners (17 1st level, 6 2nd level, 3 3rd level) 7 Half-Elf Commoners (6 1st level, 1 3rd level) 2 Elf Commoners (1 1st level, 1 2nd level) 2 Human Experts (4th level) 1 Dwarf Expert (6th level) 1 Half-Orc Expert (4th level) 1 Halfling Illusionist (9th level) 1 Prisoner (Human Necromancer 5th level) 4 PCs (3rd level, levelled up to 4th en route) [/QUOTE]
