"Nosso Lar" is a mythical utopian city from
Brazilian culture, described by a spiritist and
medium. I guess that makes it a good name to give to
a Cursed ship, since the Cursed are all about the
supernatural. This particular ship is not utopian,
but she has a lot going for her.
There aren't many Cursed ships that can hit S+L
speed without help. This one can, and she also has
the immunity to shots within S range that can make
her unhittable. In addition, she has terrible cargo
and terrible cannons. That rules out effective gold
running and any kind of fighting, and she's too
small for boarding any but the smallest gold ships.
If you want to use her, I'd send her to a wild
island that will be fought over.
She can snag one good treasure, use her speed and
ability to get away unscathed, and maybe try again
on a similar island. She might not pay for herself,
but she can keep the best treasures out of the
enemy's hands. Sometimes, that's all you need.
