The ship was captained by the handmaidens' ringleader Sabé Andierre. The engines were maintained by Ellé Okrest and Kitpat Arthi, the navigation and weapons by Losté and Ené, with Yané Carinda, who also acted as ship's doctor, helping out on the latter. Also on board were Lané Votorina and Morenjj Lasara, who did whatever else needed to be done, as the ship was seriously undermanned; the refugee passengers were also expected to aid in the running of the ship however possible.
