The Gods' Gift & ship constructs

Reach Mastery in ten skills and bring down the ship part from the summit of the Twin Giants (the Anti-Gravity Core, carried or fitted as your Graviton Keel), and the next time you log in Hermes, herald of the gods, comes down to you in a column of light. He takes you up to the realm of the gods: a floating marble Olympus above an endless sea of cloud, where the Council of seven (Zeus, Poseidon, Athena, Ares, Gaia, Chronos and Hermes) tells you the truth about the seven humanities, and why this age of wooden ships and gunpowder is the one they keep. Then they give you a gift: choose one of four ship constructs. (Press Space to move the story along.)

What a construct does

Every construct is a ship skill on your sea action bar. When you call it, it bursts up out of the sea ahead of you, throws two chains of light back to a golden spar across your bow (ten metres apart) and hauls you away: double speed for 12 seconds, a godly ward that soaks blows (40% of your hull), breaks stuns, binds and grapples, and makes every enemy ship lose you. 120 second cooldown.

The constructs

Construct	What you see	How to get it
Radiant Unicorns	A pair of pink, winged unicorns of living light that gallop through the air ahead of your bow.	Gods' choice or store
Crimson Stampede	Two red bulls of god-fire stampeding across the water.	Gods' choice or store
Dragon Constructs	Two giant golden dragons skimming the swell on beating wings (one leads, one follows).	Gods' choice or store
Hammerhead Constructs	Two great hammerhead sharks of sea-light, leaping clear of the waves as they tow.	Gods' choice or store
Emerald Gators	A pair of great green alligators that thrash you along, hopping out of the swell.	Store
Violet Kaiju	One towering violet kaiju with both your chains in its jaws, plunging under the waves and bursting out again.	Store
Ghost Express	A smoky green-black ghost steam train that lays its own track ahead; the rails run back under it and smash apart on your bow.	Store
Sunshine Submarine	A bright yellow submarine that pops up periscope first and tows you from its stern, ducking under and bobbing back up.	Store
Lich Hands	Two giant ghostly-green skeletal hands that claw up out of the sea, reach forward, hook the water and drag themselves (and you) along like a zombie crawling across the floor.	Store
Chrome Surfer	A gleaming chrome rider on a glowing board that swoops in, locks a tractor beam on your bow and tows you, slaloming and barrel-rolling in front of you.	Store
