The flagship of his fleet is the grand [[grand cruiser]] ''[[Emperor's Vow]]''. His endeavours include arms dealing, the [[Cold Trade]], smuggling, [[Pirate|piracy]], exploration, and even legitimate trade ventures. If there is a way to make money, one of Winterscale's agents is doing it right now.{{Fn|1}}
