With the advent of ships and transoceanic exploration, the skill of Seafaring was unveiled to give adventurers abilities with which to truly excel and proper whilst navigating the extensive oceans and seas surrounding the continent of Sapience. It is unique among all skills through a number of respects.
Firstly, access to Seafaring is acquired only by obtaining a Fully Attested Marque of Unquestioned Seaworthiness. Secondly, training in Seafaring involves specialisation in various vocational paths - Deckhand, Weapons, Helm, Watch, and Command - each of which is given a particular set of unique abilities. Finally, abilities in Seafaring are not gained through simple progression of skill ranks via lessons but rather by the usage of accumulated Seafaring Promotion Points (SPPs) received from advancement through the aforementioned skill ranks.
