Wolfship
Wolfships are a class of sea vessel used throughout the Mortal Realms, primarily by the Scourge Privateers but others are known to use them such as the undead of Decrepita.[1a][7a]
Design
Wolfships' are slender, predatory sea vessels propelled by sail-and-oar that prowl the open oceans until their holds are fit to bursting with loot.[2][3a][6a]
They are armed with harpoon launchers and bolt throwers and unlike Freeguild ships cannons are avoided to ensure prey is relatively intact to maximize the plunder and also make it easier to capture certain beasts alive.[6a]
Role
Wolfships are swift-moving vessels that can be used for a variety of purposes.
Among the Scourge Privateers
The Scourge Privateers primarily use wolfships as raiding vessels, for when the Scourge Privateers that crew them seek to take loot.[1a][3a] They are also used to form the convoys and armadas surrounding the much larger Black Arks, pride of any Black Ark Fleetmaster's fleet.[3a]
