Captain's Helm

Whitepaper

NFT Collection

Every NFT in Captain's Helm has a purpose. Resources seed the economy, bottles generate $RUM, passes drive events, and Fleet Era assets unlock strategic gameplay.

Resources

Resources are dug from the ScurvyBot dig pool (!dig) and fuel blends, ships, pirates, and Black Market deals.

Core resources (rarity)

  • Driftwood Shard — Common
  • Coral Bead — Uncommon
  • Kraken Ink — Rare
  • Golden Fang — Epic
  • Pirate's Relic — Mythic

Their purpose is to move, not sit idle — generated often, then burned often.

Live dig pool numbers: Twitch & Waves.

Map Fragments (I–VI)

Map Fragments were the first NFTs of the project. They craft into maps and treasures, and also appear as ingredients for Black Market deals and Treasure Hunt passes.

Fragment list

  • Fragment I: North Shore Cliffs
  • Fragment II: Serpent's Pass
  • Fragment III: The Kraken's Spine
  • Fragment IV: Drowned Grotto
  • Fragment V: Skull Rock Fork
  • Fragment VI: X Marked Dunes

RUM Bottles

Bottles generate $RUM hourly through staking on StakeItOnWax. Each upgrade requires 3 bottles of the tier below, plus $RUM and resources.

Bottle progression

  • Deckhand's Draft (Common)
  • Bilgebrew Flask (Uncommon)
  • Tempest Vial (Rare)
  • Siren's Sip (Epic)
  • Ember-Spiced Elixir (Legendary)
  • Captain's Eternal Reserve (Mythic)

Exact production rates: $RUM.

Chests

Bottle chests are sold out — bottles are primarily acquired through Fatebound Caches, while Fleet Era uses dedicated chest-style drops for ships and pirates.

Fatebound Cache

Each Cache cracks open 10 times, spilling resources, fragments, bottles, and rarely an Ancient Key.

  • Driftwood Shard: 9%
  • Coral Bead: 9%
  • Kraken Ink: 9%
  • Map Fragments I–VI: 9% each
  • Deckhand's Draft: 9%
  • Bilgebrew Flask: 3%
  • Golden Fang: 3%
  • Pirate's Relic: 3%
  • Ancient Key: 1%

Fleet Cache

5 Ship NFTs per cache • scouting, cargo, and battle • mythic ships are blend-only.

  • Common: 55%
  • Uncommon: 25%
  • Rare: 13%
  • Epic: 5%
  • Legendary: 2%

Fleet Contract

15 Pirate NFTs per contract • 5 classes • mythic pirates are blend-only.

  • Common: 55%
  • Uncommon: 25%
  • Rare: 13%
  • Epic: 5%
  • Legendary: 2%

Ancient Key

Rare utility from dig pool, Discord giveaways, special drops, and rarely Fatebound Cache. One key opens one Fatebound Cache; higher-rarity chests can cost more keys.

Treasure Hunt Pass

Hunt Passes are event tickets for Treasure Hunt runs and seasonal loops. Full structure: Events & Systems.

Helmsmen token

The Helmsmen token unlocks premium access across select systems — special blends, boosted utilities, and high-impact rotations — without breaking the broader economy.

See Twitch & Waves and Events & Systems.

Fleet Era

Ships and crew NFTs add a strategic layer where assets are used, maintained, and improved through meaningful decisions. Doctrine: Fleet Era; live mechanics: the in-product Logbook.
