Thirty years ago, a pirate named Magwroth thought to seize control of the Cloudreaver Principality, challenging the rule of Sea Prince Mika Rockface. The results were one-sided. Magwroth was hideously injured, his vessel Devourer’s Hand was severely damaged, and the rest of his ragtag fleet was sunk. After limping away under tattered sails, Magwroth was never seen again, and it was assumed that Devourer’s Hand had vanished beneath the waves.
Would that it had.
Carried on furious currents through the blinding mist of the Gray Tide, Devourer’s Hand passed into the heart of Kythri. There, Magwroth and the remains of his crew were consumed by a host of inhuman creatures that now sail a ghostly fleet across the Lhazaar Sea.
The Chaos Fleet consists of half a dozen to two dozen vessels, its numbers changing from day to day. Several of the ships, including Devourer’s Hand, are mortal-built wrecks kept afloat by the elemental power that now infuses their waterlogged hulls. The other ships hail from Kythri and are driven by the power of fire and air. Though they appear to be roughly carved of rock or ice, these chaos ships are impossibly swift and can run down even elemental galleons.
