A brass binnacle beside the helm, its glass cap housing a long sliver of Himinkryst that turns slowly toward home.
Ship Upgrade(Navigation) , Rare (No)
The ship-mounted version of the Lodestar Needle. The quartermaster can name up to three ports or docks the ship has visited within the last 30 days, and chooses which one the binnacle points to at the start of each leg.
- A quartermaster steering toward that port has advantage on navigation checks.
- At night, the quartermaster ignores the penalty for having no stars or moon to steer by (see Navigation).
- It works for the quartermaster and pilot alike, and doesn’t need to be held.
Installation & Price
2,500 gp, installed in 1 day. (The hand-held needle is 400 gp.)
