That is true. However, in literally every other ship in the game, the captain is by far the strongest one and the rest of the crew is mostly useless. What we do know is that she is stronger than everyone else on shell island.
Oh yeah, kinda forgot about them. Not gonna lie, haven’t really set foot on that island since doing the first Enizor quest.
Oh right, she lives on Shell Island. I imagine that she’d act almost like a guardian helping to get people safely into the caverns while also killing any Atlanteans that stray too close to the entrance.
I’d imagine Redwake would collapse a few months/years into the invasion because they heavily rely on fishing. If the Atlantean presence poisons the sea or they blockade Redwake hunting crews, everyone would slowly starve to death because there are no crops, it’s all just stone spires.
cant believe I missed this topic!!
You put so much thought into these, ty for bringing this silly idea of mine to life
additionally, should be noted that although most islands seem barren of Atlanteans, the sea is overrun with them, making travel between islands almost an impossible task. If you’re stuck on a dangerous island, you’re STUCK.
Made it so that “other reason” was an Atlantean raid, in which the fight had caused the fortress to collapse in on itself, killing MOST of the Atlanteans as well as the Ravenna soldiers inside.
True! Maybe that’s also how Argos got infected, so many Atlanteans surrounded him that they all fell onto him when the fort collapsed, fusing into his body
yep, and since said Atlanteans were probably exhausted too, they didn’t have time to really eat him which allowed him time to mutate
Like you said, he’s the only Atlantean in Fort Talos, and picks off those who are separated from the group of survivors inside the ruins
How long would most safe havens survive on its own? I’d imagine most of them except Cirrus and Silverhold would just starve to death over time unless they can get some unique food or whatevs
nah I’d win tbh

Good point. That said, any island with the player on it will be eating for several years on the player’s food supplies alone. /j
assuming the player didn’t get a unhealthy dose of atlantean and or devoured
nah the player’s got plot armor, they’ll be fine
There are brave souls that go out and do supply runs, going to many of the islands above that lack a high Atlantean presence to gather food.
In Shell Island’s case, its very risky to go up onto the Atlantean infested surface, but manageable (this is usually Caria’s job)
In this AU does the mc still end up at dawn island somehow? Don’t think he could rowboat over to Redwake with atlantean frigates or whatever constantly looming around.
Also we know about the islands in the Bronze Sea, but do you think the other seas would have more active resistance and generally more Atlanteans? It’s implied that Ravenna is pretty much the weakest kingdom in the War seas. Maybe some Atlantean presence from the Bronze Sea would move to Nimbus or something
The invasion started in the Bronze Sea, so most of them are down here. If the Nimbus Sea is mostly sky islands, I can’t imagine there’d be too many over there.
The player is not a concrete character right now, and could be a self insert for those who want to place their OCs in this AU. The plot is currently not affected or revolving around their story.
in that case
Nah, he’d win.
cut to shot of player facedown in water
Don’t worry, he’s just a sailor fist user recharging his bar
i wonder how cracked out sailorfist builds are gonna be if they have to use the poisoned water
speedrunning mutations with that exposure
not to mention internal body damage from POISONOUS water, it would likely give you a pretty major power boost in contrast to regular seawater though
