Sail

Trait Description: Water covers more than a third of Creation. Sail allows characters to pilot ships across seas and along rivers as well as pilot flying vehicles such as Haslanti air boats or large First Age vehicles such as skyships. Sail covers everything from navigation and tying knots to the mechanics of steering and piloting ships through jagged reefs and half-hidden sandbars.
