In "Sharpe's Trafalgar" the titular protagonist travels on a British navy ship of the line and we get various descriptions of the cavernous bowels of the ship, filled with fetid airs and scurrying rats - as well as this line:
"Cowper, the purser, who normally stayed mole-like in the lower depths of the ship..."
Which immediately makes me think that in a fantasy age of sail, dwarves or goblins at sea would take on the below deck work.

It was funded by the European Union, and the bulk of the work was done between 2001 and 2003.

The time has come! Arsenic & Old Lace has been set free! This game is set during the age of sail (mid 15th century through the mid 20th century) with a dash of supernatural and mythos and a backdrop of the English Civil War (or any way during that time really).
It is inspired by Sword and Backpack and includes the ye olde invisible rulebook to assist the Storytellers with consistency and fairness.

This week in PRACTICAL DEFENCE AGAINST PIRACY:
SOMETHING OMINOUS!!! -
"The reason I'm so confident is our savings - one-and-a-half tonnes of fuel per day. Get four wings on a vessel, that's six tonnes of fuel saved, that's 20 tonnes of CO2 saved - per day. The numbers are massive."

I have an #AgeOfSail fan person right in my house, and this novel I'm working on isn't set in our world anyway, but I still feel like I need to know more about ships than I currently do. I have a stack of pirate-related nonfiction to get through first, though!

CW: Today’s teaser: queer historical romance
“It’s good to be useful, but try not to confuse it with being loved. People either love you or they don’t. Your family doesn’t need you, but they’ll *miss* you.” — SAILOR’S DELIGHT by Rose Lerner, an m/m historical
Rose always knows how to cut to the quick. This book is warm and calendar-centered and spiritual in a welcome way, particularly suited to the tail end of the year.
