i know absolutely nothing about boats. i literally don't even know how sails WORK other then breze goes bleeew and sails go weeeee.
However i think the Christ Caft works best since it has space to be out of the blistering sun, without having to be under a horrible tarp which sounds literally terrible. And it also gives space for Art to work and journal and maybe make more maps that are smaller and cover less areas but are much more detailed ect. Also can give a chance for them to have a break from each other if they want. And would over all be very practical for their expedition and all the time at sea they will be having. the first image is kinda what i was imagining they would be in anyway XD. And it also will pobably come in handy and be the best investment for the future for Adriel anyway

And a bathroom... That is super important hahahah
Chris Craft it is... Poor Adriel will feel so put out by the craft cause it sounded ideal, but way more expensive than he wanted and unsure if it actually was a good investment until they are on it for a couple days xD

That zombie was actually my first attempt with black and white, and my first attempt with foreshortening - where body parts look closer than others. Like the dragon claws tearing open a hole on my avi, too

Rather than that brass thing on the forehead, would be a large diamond shaped turquoise held in place by a similar fixture the other turquoise are also in The saddle, though the leather would be darker to match the bridle and the stones would have matching inlays from the bridle

Yeah, me too. Saddle is simple enough for its time, a little bit extravagant for a Navajo, but it is also pretty with the turquoise stones being one of the Navajo sacred stones.

That's called the Squash Blossom necklace. The silver beads that are circle but with ends that resemble blooms (Squash Blossom beads) are origins so old in the Native American culture that it's found all across them, but the horseshoe shape is actually Spanish influence that was adopted by the Navajo in the 1800s. The surrounding tribes had also adopted it by the 1900s. But the horse shoe pattern is supposed to help ward off evil, and usually worn by medicine men and those with wealth.

Yeah, there are some really elaborate ones from the 20s to the 40s, they look very neat. They are also made with silver ingots, so trying to get a genuine one from that time period is like $10k or so xD Super expensive, can go higher for the more elaborate pieces, too. Less elaborate ones go for $1k-5k, though I think those are the ones made more for tourists.

That's going to be his 'jet' bracelets, though it will be as a matching pair. This piece doesn't have a time period on it - the owner isn't sure though they do know its an early piece, but it does match up to other Navajo works rather than Zuni or Hopi of the 20s-30s period. It's no later than that because by the 40s, they were using stamps to identify the maker, but this one only has scratched in initials which was something that was done in the 20s to mid 30s. I like it a lot since its bold, masculine, and pretty haha It could possibly be pueblo because of the star pattern, but still the same periodThat star pattern is called concho, and also originates with the Navajo. Definitely leaning towards Navajo with the heavier silverwork and lack of inlay

so while we are talking about Atlantis in the rp... what should Atlantis be XD should it be like in Journey to Atlantis or like Namore and his people from Wakanda Forever (though they technically are aztecs/mayans) and it be a whole secret world or would that be too close to our Mayan Idea? SHould it be under water on the bottom of the ocean, should it be covered in ash? It has to exist for other expeditions to follow though so it needs to at least exist XD

I think it would be awesome to find an underwater cavern system so deep that it's formed its own atmosphere in a similar version of Journey to the Center of the Earth. Less that it was destroyed, more that the people had feared an End of the World prophecy and deliberately buried the city to preserve it for all time. They then spread throughout the world to warn people about the impending doom, their mission was to go as far as possible, but people forgot where it was by the time the world recovered from the great flooding (a lot of geological evidence supports the bible story of god flooding the world is actually based in some truth, especially since the story appears in more than just the old testament). What do you think?
