2012 is the Year of the Dragon. If you were born in the Year of the Dragon, the age you'll be turning this year will be a multiple of 12. And if you've only just created a pirate this month, that pirate will share with you the qualities "robust" and "passionate," and his or her life will be "filled with complexity." (This, according to the "Placemats in many Chinese restaurants in the United States" system of interpretation. Or the online Farmer's Almanac.) Apparantly you should seek a life partner whose sign is the monkey or the rat. By no means should you date a dog -- or, I suppose, a werewolf.
Also, you should get a matching boat so you can venture forth in the style that befits your horoscope. January's limited edition ship is the Dragon Class Fanchuan.
What can I say that The Spyglass has not? It's green, it's loaded down with jade statues and it's got a ferocious figurehead. On Viridian, it'll run you somewhere in the realm of 50K-65K pieces of eight and 64 doubloons. (Shipyard surveyed: Dragon Boats, on, appropriately enough, Dragon's Nest. On Midnight, I'm seeing about 44K PoE on Byrne Island, where establishments are named after Talking Heads songs. The shipyard is "Love for Sail".)
You've got until 3 PM PST on Wednesday, February 1st to place your order and be the envy of your crew. I can guarantee that Millefleur will be saving up diligently so as to captain one of these beauties on the Meridian Ocean.
