The Sea Queens

Throughout history, sailors have often treated the ships they sailed as if they were sapient. The Sea Queens project asks the question "what if they were sapient? What stories would they tell?"

Hosted on Spacebattles, the project takes the Spaceship Girl trope and cranks it up further. Whenever a ship is built by human hands (or other races, let's not be exclusive) that exceeds a certain size threshold, the ship itself ends up with an Anthropomorphic Personification that can interact with the crew. Usually taking female form (though male avatars are not unheard of), these avatars are the ship, often with personalities based on what they were built (or refitted) to do.


 * Amazonian Beauty - Cargo ship avatars can often display mild levels of Super Strength, with physiques to match.
 * Baby Got Back - Ocean Liner avatars had quite defined backsides.
 * Big Beautiful Woman - Given their leisurely pace, none-destination itineraries, and rather hedonistic onboard facilities, cruise ships are rather plump.
 * Blood Knight - All warships display this trope to one degree or another. After all, they're all built to fight.
 * Body Horror - Avatars often have sympathetic injuries that appear when the ship is damaged, the type of injury depending on where the damage is. Broken legs often correspond to a lost rudder or damaged engines, broken feet for damaged propellers, and breaking a ship's keel will break the avatar's back.
 * Boobs Of Steel - Warship avatars tend toward large bra sizes, often in direct proportion to the firepower of their main armament.
 * Spaceship Girl - Taken to extremes with even wooden sailing vessels having an avatar.
 * Surprisingly-Sudden Death - More than one warship avatar simply keeled over dead on the spot when the ship is rapidly subjected to hideous amounts of damage, such as direct hits to the ammo magazines.
 * Team Chef - During World War II, aircraft carrier avatars frequently packed lunches for their pilots so they'd have something to eat on long patrols. As space in planes became more cramped with the advance of technology, this tradition now involves making sure a warm meal is available to pilots and aircrew when they land. Verges into Supreme Chef territory as they are the best cooks among military vessels.
 * Team Mom - Given how they operate both as a ship and as part of a fleet, Aircraft Carriers are pretty much the embodiment of this trope, right down to aprons and demeanors not that out of place of a 50's sitcom.
