The Gilded Wake

Brixton Ornatan's pirate brand and identity. A coin stamped with the Gilded Wake logo is a recognizable emblem — carried and distributed by Brixton Ornatan as a mark of his reputation in The Hanging Seas and beyond.

The Gilded Wake is connected to his work through the Freewake League and to his parents' networks, though the full scope of the brand — whether it represents a crew, a ship, or simply a name — has not been stated directly.

Session 1: Brixton Ornatan slipped a Gilded Wake coin into Pippen's palm on the lift-ship, a quiet gesture meant to say keep it hidden. The boy took it as proof of legend. The coin may have been part of what emboldened him to defy the Stillforge guard.

Session 10: The Gilded Wake reasserts its priorities through Brixton's family contact. The Hothbreaker Maul and the Ulrich Burial Grounds matter more than the civic crisis in Vi unless that crisis can be turned into leverage. The journal is now something they may send someone to collect directly.
