Description Navigators have the
critically important task of
getting a ship where it is
supposed to go. Old World
Navigators typically use charts
to set their course, though
they are often also capable of
navigating by sun and stars.
Navigators know the secrets
of wind and tide, which makes
them seem somewhat mystical
to their sailor brethren and
they are often regarded as a
breed apart. Navigators are,
by necessity, cartographers,
charting the course of their
voyages so that they may
retrace them or that others
may follow their route. As
there are no compasses in
the world, all ships employ
a skilled Navigator, as do some
overland expeditions.
