Rahni Surch

Pearl Trading Company's Unyielding Sailing Vessel

The Rahni Surch, known as the "Raven Flame" in Helani, holds a storied history as one of the Pearl Trading Company's most revered trading vessels. Despite her age and modest speed compared to the company's newer vessels, she remains a cherished legend, carrying an aura of blessing from the sea that has kept her afloat and out of the hands of pirates for countless voyages.
With her timeworn design and weather-beaten appearance, the Rahni Surch stands as a testament to the maritime traditions of old. Though she has seen numerous upgrades over the years, her essence as a symbol of the company's legacy remains unchanged. It is said that she carries the spirit of the sea herself, imbuing her crew with a sense of courage and luck, and guiding them safely through the unpredictable waters. However despite her fortune and speed in the past, she has been delegated to only run close trading operations with the newer ships doing the further runs.
She boasts a captivating design with black sails gracefully billowing against the wind, a design choice found throughout most of the company's vessels. The ship's exterior is adorned with trims of oxidized bronze, adding a bit of antiquity and charm to its appearance. Crafted from resilient wood sourced exclusively from the Rowan Forest, the hull stands as a testament to the ship's maritime heritage. Its figurehead, an exquisite representation of a majestic raven in flight with flaming following onto the hull, graces the prow. The hull of the vessel although altered through its use, depicts the lines of fire carved delicately and trimmed with bronze further pushing its name into the design. Despite its age, the Rahni Surch has been meticulously maintained, retaining its allure and charm, making it a timeless symbol of maritime tradition and mythical reverence.
