Daroma Tai

The Daroma Tai (lit. "Terror of the Water") is an Ilari atakebune warship, designed to be the flagship of the Ilari Armada. It is one of the largest ships in the world of Moth, along with the Tai Lar. Its deck is over four hundred feet long, and a pagoda rises atop it, three tiers tall. The ship is massive enough to ferry a thousand soldiers. Oars emerged from its iron-clad hull like centipede legs, and battened sails rise upon the ship's masts, providing extra thrust. The ship's figurehead is shaped as a dragon, and a great cannon thrusts out from its mouth like a tongue. Dozens of smaller cannons line the ship's deck.
