==Abilities==

* Curse of the Wellfar - Manipulates space around the ship.  The ocean water turns flat and all attacks rebound into their attacker.  This is a known ability as Rasea Zecrew knows to avoid it when it was deployed against the Illuminary.<ref name=":0" />
* Shields - The ship can deploy a multi-layered defensive shield.  The layered shields are at least 3 deep.<ref name=":0" /> If they go down, mithril shields can be deployed to protect the ship.<ref name=":1" />
* Will o’ Waves - Requires hydromancers to funnel power into reservoirs located below-deck.  The enchantment causes the water to push the ship forward.<ref name=":0" />
*Attack Spells -  The ship possesses spells like a ray of light that destroyed the Assassin's Guild in First Landing, and can break through the magical protections of a Drowned Ship or equivalent. Other spells in its arsenal include [Grand Lightning].<ref name=":1" />
