Great Sea

The Great Sea is so named not because it is the largest but it is the deepest and has the most water. It is located in the southern hemisphere, touching five countries and three continents. It has average salinity and average temperature near the continents but colder as you get further out.  

Phenomena

The Great Sea would perhaps be fairly navigable, if it weren't for the wildy unpredictable waves and tides. Though caused mainly by the planet's three moons, the randomness of them cannot seem to be blamed entirely on the world's celestial bodies. For a safe journey, a vessel must have mages to monitor tides and waves, else the vessel be carried completely off course or capsized on an unexpected wave.  

Travel on the Great Sea

The generator below will provide a description of a day sailing the Great Sea. It could include the description of a successful, 'regular' day or the description of an encounter to be faced. In the Great Sea, ship mages are basically a requirement and if you don't have them, all checks should be made at disadvantage and all travel takes twice as long.

Some generator results inspired by lists found here, here, here and here.
