Rough sketch of Faulfenzair ship design

For the design and terminology specific to Faulfenzair vessels.

Faulfenzair Medicine

  • A plant based medicine, chewed and digested, that helps them tolerate lower gravity environments. Best digested over the course of a week.[1]
  • Medicines are frequently derived from plants.[1]
  • A patient Faulfenza (priest?), who helps and counsels a young Eldritch priest with troubles of the spirit.

Ships and Ship Technology

The Faulfenza call using Wellspace "traversing the Silence."[2]

Layout

  • The bridge of a Faulfenzair ship is known as the fore. The captain (Faulfiirla) stands at a command column in its center. The stations on the fore are also accessed by standing columns. The area around the central column might have its own gravity.
  • Ships have a place-of-Dancing, made from soil imported from Qufiil.[3]

Crew

  • Faulfiirla - emissary; analogous to a combination of captain and diplomat
  • Faulpendai (lit. ShipMinder) - executive officer

Naval Culture

  • "...the crew went about their routines, one of which was the twice-daily Dance: a morning prayer, and an evening performance from the Greater and Lesser Wisdom Scroll rotation. The evening Dances were synchronized to the calendar on Qufiil, linking them to their homeworld, and though as Emissary Zafiil was considered the ship’s most trained Dancer, every Faulfenzair Danced, and every Faulfenzair did: two new people a day, moving through the entire crew, until they came around to the head of the roster again."[3]
