What kind of ships are Vivacia, Paragon etc?

True! Also there seems to be several periods of history where ship technology had a stop-start thing going on, if stories of Roman fleets are to be believed. So yeah, her ships are perfectly entitled to have their own evolution from tech, histroy and in her case, magic, of course.

I love that image of Paragon on a beach on one of the editions of 'Madship's', the one where Amber is with him. That has kind of informed my roundabout image of all the ships.
