The Shadow Queen is a nearly indestructible dromond war ship created from the ancient umbral impression of a Quelmar Ship long since sank. As the Shadow Queen is so sturdy, it has been passed down from captain to captain for generations, typically Shadar-Kai. The latest captain was Captain Duskella
About
The Shadow Queen is the "indestructible, but not unsinkable" ship. Like it survives being eaten by a monster that Duskella thinks is a Kraken and is plane shifted in that capacity. Same with a whirlpool. The crew is probably totally fucked, but the Shadow Queen goes on.
At least, that's her understanding of it. She could be 100% wrong.
Part of her new story is finding out more about it, if she can. The other part deals with a repressed memory that started returning when she arrived in the Shadowfell.
