We all have different culinary problems, and different culinary solutions!
Intro: Hello Fediverse! I'm a life long historical miniatures gamer looking for a like minded community. My interests include #Ancients, #AgeOfSail, #Ironclads, and #18thCenturyConflicts.
I also dabble in #Scalemodels specifically #CardModels of ships.
Oh this is a nice superstition. Stealing this one.
In "Sharpe's Trafalgar" the titular protagonist travels on a British navy ship of the line and we get various descriptions of the cavernous bowels of the ship, filled with fetid airs and scurrying rats - as well as this line:
"Cowper, the purser, who normally stayed mole-like in the lower depths of the ship..."
Which immediately makes me think that in a fantasy age of sail, dwarves or goblins at sea would take on the below deck work.
