WEAPONRY
- Dancing Sword = A sword that can “dance” midair and attack on the wielder’s behalf (has a chance of being faulty and instead forces the wielder to dance).
- Elemental Flintlock = A flintlock pistol that can shoot bullets of elemental energy. Can specify which element or have it random. Chances of it misfiring.
- Stun Buzzer = A small, handheld device that when triggered will stun or paralyze someone for a short period of time.
TRANSPORT
- Flying Deckswabber = A deck swabber mop enchanted to fly. Can only go up five feet in the air.
- Sacred Galewind Shoes = A sacred pair of shoes said to have been kissed by the wind itself. When worn, it will activate an enchantment that will briefly enable the wearer to run along air currents for a short distance.
EXPLORATION/TREASURE-HUNTING
- Compass Of Desire = A compass that points not north, but to whatever a person’s heart desires
- Compass Of Light = A compass that seems broken, but when it is in darkness will emit a glow that can act as a beacon and last for two hours. Must be recharged in the sun between uses.
- Dowsing Blade Lvl. 4 = The blade can now pinpoint rare items and valuable treasures over long distances. At the current level, the sword can react to treasures over 5km away.
PROTECTION
- Bubble Shield Lvl. 3 = the shield can now withstand several heavy hits before popping. It can also comfortably shield five people within its dome.
- Camouflage Cloak Lv. 4 = This upgrade increases the size of the cloak, allowing the wearer to not only hide themselves but also any gear and items they may be carrying without breaking the disguise.
- Golden Bone Armour. Heavy steel bones and teeth enclose the armour's chest and neck like a beautiful exoskeleton that both swallows and protects the wearer.
OTHER
- Ring Of Returning Lvl 1 = A curious ring allows the wearer to register a specific location and, upon activating the enchantment, return to the specified location. At its current level, it can only be used once per day and can only return to a public space.
- Ring of Evasion Lv. 1 = An enchanted ring enables the wearer to have a heightened perception, helping them avoid objects and crowds. Initially, it is only effective in avoiding small objects and getting through crowds easier, and is ineffective in combat settings.
- Pocket Dimensional Carry-On = A magically-enhanced bag that has had its carrying ability upgraded exponentially. These bags hold the power to carry many more items than physiclaly possible, while also never weighing more than a well-laden mundane bag of the same size. The bags are also enchanted to be waterproof and are able to withstand most extreme weather conditions. Also comes in a variety of bag styles! The Small-size bag is roughly the size of a coin pouch, and can hold up to 10 items roughly the same size as the coin pouch itself. The pouch never alters its shape and always retains the weight of a full coin pouch, no matter the weight of the item placed within it

CHARACTER INFO
Character: Della Duck
Canon: Ducktales 2017, post-series finale
Age: Not given, implied to be late thirties.
Background Information: Wiki!
Personality:
Della Duck is an adventurer at heart - she longs to try new things, make her own trek, and live a life full of adrenaline. Unfortunately this has often caused her to be unintentionally selfish and reckless. During many of her youthful adventures with her Uncle Scrooge and twin brother Donald, she'd be so focused on the fun she'd have on the journey that she remained oblivious to how frustrating her headstrong nature could be. There were many times she landed Donald in danger and brushed off his resulting anger - and did the same when she was in danger. After all, nothing could stop Della Duck. As far as she saw it, Donald was just a worrywart.
This extended to when she laid three eggs, and wanted to give them the same fun and thrills she had. This resulted in what she would later call the biggest mistake of her life - when she discovered Scrooge had built a rocket ship for her in secret, she hopped aboard while only leaving a vague note. This would cost her at least ten years away from her family, including her little boys. The time away made her understand how awful she had treated her brother and uncle, and vowed to become a better mother. When she reunited with her family, she still intended to take her boys out on adventures - but she'd do all in her power to watch over them and help them out.
The "current" Della is still fairly reckless and headstrong - she will still dive into a fight without thinking if left to her own devices. However, if she has people she cares about around, it will make her think more about the situation she's in and how much it really needs to be done. There is no question that she loves her family, and will always be ready to lay down her own life to protect them if she can. But years alone on the moon has warped her social skills a bit, making her oblivious how much someone may hate her (like Penny) initially and also making her not realize the things she say can be either downright depressing or horrifying. She also has wound up talking to herself... a lot.
When it comes to new people, Della is happy and eager to make new friends. When they're younger, the mothering instinct kicks into full drive, wanting to take care of them and show them how to have fun at the same time. She normally has a fun competitive spirit - except when it comes to things she's really proud of. For example, when the perfect cheerfully Launchphad nonchalantly told her he's the family pilot, she broke into a rage, declaring that she was the best and not to be replaced.
Being the brother of the infamous Donald Duck, of course her own temper has to be mentioned. While Donald can throw a tantrum at the drop of a hat, Della tends to take things more in stride - but as a result, when that trigger IS hit, it's just as explosive as her brother if not more so. Aside from the plane pride mentioned earlier, this anger typically comes out whenever there's an intense threat to her family, willing to rip anything and anyone apart for their sake... even if it's something as silly as denying one of her sons a Junior Woodchuck badge.
To sum up, Della is a cheerful mom who is doing her best to make up for her past mistakes, but often finds herself making those very same mistakes again. But it's clear that while she loves adventure, she will always love her family more.
Abilities & Inventory:
Abilities :
- Enhanced strength + endurance as a result of adventuring for the majority of her life, and the 10+ years of physical labor on the moon.
- Can, has, and will continue to use her detachable leg if it can help a situation – weapon, lever, etc.
- Years of being a Junior Woodchuck have given her a vast knowledge of mythological/legendary creatures.
- Ace pilot. Her claim to fame is that she can "fly anything".
Inventory :
- Her own copy of the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, which lists all kinds of facts and information. However, given how old the book is, several pages are ripped/missing/tattered/doodled in, so it won’t give her the insane EVERYTHING knowledge that most JWG’s have.

ARMADA SELECTION
Corsair!
Della does see herself as “Justice Duck”, on the side of heroes and aces at beating bad guys (and her twin brother is an actual sailor!) so in theory she’d make a great Paladan. However, she has a wild side that loves to break the rules and find new boundaries. Plus, according to her, you can find out way more information under the loose lips of those who live outside the law. If she wants to find a way to “beat the game” and go home (and she does!), sticking to the Corsairs seems the best way for her to dig up valuable secrets and learn the ways of this weird realm.
Also, while she won’t tell anyone this, being with the Paladins would just remind her of Donald too much and make her miss him more. Like a true McDuck, we bottle up the sad feelings and tell no one!

SAMPLE
[Video]
[ Della's face pops up looking... well, like everyone else - exhausted physically, mentally, and emotionally. She smacks her beak a bit, before speaking. ]
... So. That sucked.
[ Fully aware that's the understatement of the century, Della draws a breath, and tries again. ]
I think we could all use a nice, long breather after everything... and, gosh darn it, as Train Mom, that is my sacred duty. Hugs? Head on the lap? Head-pats telling you that you did a good job? A shoulder to cry on? Venting out all your feelings without judgement? I'm right here.
[ She slaps her chest, then slaps a small sign on on the sports gym. It reads
EXHAUST PILE WITHIN
But as she does this, Tidus enters the scene - Della jumps, surprised, almost forgetting his presence.
He just smiles, holding up two cups with steam coming off them, then addresses the video feed as well. ]
We're also making big batches of cocoa too. Any of you that're gonna stress bake? There's room for that room - s'long as you don't need a nap first.
[ It's a small chide though, his smile small but sympathetic. ]
I've gotten out some incense pots from the supplies - you guys who got your head thrown into a blender by that aash-- uh, that jerk, [ he takes a swift glance at Della, then back ] --it'll help you relax. Just some, but better than nothin'. I'll set some off in Momma Duck's air nest, but if you're not doing great and you think you need a pot? Tell me. Raven made a lot of good stuff for good nights sleep if you need any in the medcar, too.
... So, yes. Cocoa. Incense. Hugging. And if you want to sleep with friends for a couple nights, we got air beds and extra pillows in here. Nobody has to get up and go until they feel ready.
And if that's not enough, that's fine too. Maybe next month we do something a little more organized, if you have any suggestions - movie night, sleepover night, big eat night, whatever, I'm listening. And I'm here for you.
[ Action ]
And inside the sports gym, the pair can be found. They have a few airbeds blown up, but there's more that still need airing up if you pop in straight after their message. There's also a tremendous amount of pillows. If you want to help, get blowing, and make these airbeds look nice and comfy!
The transgate from the standard coach has mysteriously been moved to the sports gym's outer hallway. Who did that? But it makes it easier to bring in the cups of hot chocolate from the kitchens, and for anyone who wants to bring snacks to do so. Take a seat, remember to bring your sleeping bag and whatever else you want. Plushes, your own musical instrument to offer some de-stress medication of your own with a melody.
And there's an area where small incense pots burn away, a gentle mist rising up. It won't heal the mind completely, but it will offer it some peace. And if you're worried about nightmares, a few of Raven's sachets and teas are available.
So come get a mom hug. Come and offer hugs. Just come and get something out of the company, whatever it is. Tidus and Della - and others - will be here to give a hand.
The life you had might've been fake, but the people around you aren't.
