Airship Components: R&D Contest (NA) - Entry Thread

[Taerune]

Character name: Taerune Niflgar
World name: Goblin
In-game Item: Bluebird Earrings
Component name: Airship Covering

Airship maintenance can be costly. With the airship covering, you add a protective layer to your airship's exterior - shielding it from water, heat, and cold damage, as well as repelling uninvited guests.
To create this, I first needed to obtain the materials to make it durable. I chose the chimera, as it is tough, and the secretion from it's serpent head makes a natural repellent.


Next, I needed to fish up some waterproof cotton. I chose to fish from the Sagolii Desert so we had protection from both water and heat.


Lastly, I sought help from the Ul'Dahs weaver's guild. The task required more than one person, and they helped tremendously.


Did I mention it's completely dyeable? So you can add your crest and fly in style!

By regulate the injection of the agent to the crystal, the Aetheric Core Reactor was born. A generator capable of creating a fortified Shield and increase the output performance of the ship’s speed. Shield can be adapted to many situations; a spherical shape for a full protection or a conical shape in the front of the ship for a speed increase by reducing the wind resistance
