Balleater

The Ball-Eater is a ship captained by Fjord. It was formerly captained by Avantika as the Squall-Eater and was aligned with The Revelry before Avantika's death. Plank King Wyatt Marinos determined that the Mighty Nein would take the ship and leave Darktow Isle permanently.

Appearance
The Ball-Eater is a massive, tri-mast ship. It is armed with large heavy cannons and has many gunports.

Avantika's Captaincy
When Avantika was captain, the Squall-Eater flew a flag bearing a design featuring the Cloven Crystal, the sign of Captain Avantika's patron. As a ship aligned to The Revelry it also had a flag of plain purple bearing an unusual sheen that the crew hoisted when wishing to approach Darktow Isle. The Squall-Eater was formerly manned with a large crew. As pirates, the crew were heavily armed with shortswords, longswords and cutlasses. Most were also armed with a flintlock rifle and/or pistol. During their confrontation with the Mighty Nein at Darktow they resorted to using heavy crossbows.

Fjord's Captaincy
The crew under Fjord has not flown any flags due to them being burned upon their banishment from Darktow Isle. The crew consists of the adventuring party known as the Mighty Nein as well as several hired sailors. Overall the crew is generally lightly armed, but counts multiple spellcasters amongst its ranks. Under Fjord's captaincy the ship was renamed the Ball-Eater.

Orly's Captaincy
After returning to Nicodranas from Uk'otoa's second temple, the Mighty Nein decided to return to the Dwendalian Empire. Jester forged a new registry for the ship and they transferred ownership of the Ball-Eater to their navigator, Orly Skiffback, who promised to take good care of the ship. Orly still considered the Ball-Eater to very much be the Nein's ship, and they would always be welcome onboard.
