LORE

You are an unfortunate soul who was picked up while the Dutchman trawled the asteroid belts for valuables and trinkets to collect, which the crewmates have taken to placing in the haunted ship’s many rooms. Unfortunately, the curse works fast upon you, and the only way to escape the power of the Dutchman is to pierce the heart of its Captain. The crew will die, but the one who takes it will be set free.

“I seen it, with me own six eyes. The Dutchman, she run more silent than a Porassian Longship. Don’t let her rusty exterior fool ye. She do be filled by haunts aplenty. If ye find yerself aboard, None be seeing ye again… Least, not as yerself, ye see. Them poor trapped souls be cryin’ in flesh rapt by the cosmic tides. Changed to horror, by the Dutchman’s curse, and Davy himself ain’t no better off, cursed to search for his impossible love, for what poor woman could love such a man. 

Yar, I seen it, and I won’t be talkin’ no more, so heed me last, boy. That vast sea be perilous for a man alone. If ye find yerself out there when the asteroid tides roll in, ye never know who do be searchin’ for ye, or who might mistake ye for something ye ain’t. Perilous indeed...”

Tale last told by a sailor aboard the Shanty L03, an unlicensed scrap vessel before the ship was rent asunder, and the crew tossed into the vast belt with only their suits for comfort.
