Rhea StormwakeEverything you need to know about Rhea Stormwake.
A note on canon. Rhea Stormwake is an original fictional character from the Vizlings app. The only app-canon facts used on this site are her name, her pirate persona, and her official card description (quoted verbatim on Meet the character). Everything else here — her ship, crew, voyages, and words — is clearly-labeled creative interpretation written for fans, never presented as app canon.

Ship Life

Dawn watch to evening mess: an ordinary extraordinary day aboard. Creative interpretation.

Creative interpretation. A day in the fan-world life of the Wake.

The watches

The ship runs four-hour watches, and Rhea stands her share like everyone else — usually the dawn watch, because she likes watching the weather make up its mind. Pip Wren runs messages; Tam Okafor runs the deck; Beck has the conn when Rhea sleeps, which is rarely and loudly.

Meals

Boiler Kegg serves at fixed bells and the crew sets its life by them: burgoo and hardtack at dawn, the main meal at noon, and the evening mess — the social heart of the ship, where Article VIII (the truth at mess) turns dinner into democracy. New hands learn fast: compliment the cook, and seconds appear like magic.

Drills

Gunnery drill twice a week, sail drill in every calm, and man-overboard drill whenever Rhea feels like terrifying the new hands (weekly). "Drills are how you buy luck," she says. "The sea accepts the currency."

The evening mess

After the meal, the lanterns come out and the Code's eighth article takes over: anyone may speak plainly to anyone, captain included. Grievances, jokes, stories, proposals — it all happens at mess. More than one voyage plan, and at least one romance, started as mess-hall talk.

Sundays

No work aloft on Sundays except what's needed to keep the ship safe — Rhea's one nod to her sailors' varied faiths and superstitions. Instead: mending, music, and the week's storytelling competition, judged by applause and bribed with extra rum.
