The Prospero is a V.F.D. ship, owned by an elderly couple[1]. It is captained by Capt. Julio Sham, or by someone pretending to be Julio Sham. At one point is headed for Peru[2]. Lemony Snicket has been a passenger aboard the Prospero at the time his brother captained the ship.[1]
Ticket
There are two versions of Prospero tickets- one for V.F.D. and one for ordinary passengers.
The motto around the edge of the ordinary Prospero ticket reads:
- "Our latch is hanging out,
- For true friends old and new,
- You're welcome here so come inside,
- We've saved a place for you."
The ticket reads:
- "Every Ship has Its Own Fun!
- All voyages aboard The Prospero depart from Daedalus Dock at eight o'clock sharp. Please arrive on time. Latecomers will be forced to swim."
The V.F.D. ticket around the edges reads:
- "When we drive away in Secret,
- You'll be a Volunteer,
- So don't scream when we take you,
- The World is Quiet Here."
The writing on the V.F.D. ticket is similar except it reads "VFD voyages" and "Depart whenever circumstances require."
Locations
These are the following rooms/parts of the Prospero as shown in the blueprint in the galle
- A) Front Gate
- B) Main Bridge
- C) White Jacket Lounge
- D) Redburn Ballroom
- E) Typee Shuffleboard Court
- F) Ringman Deck*
- G) Black Guinea Deck*
- H) Black Rapids Deck*
- I)-Overboard- not an actual location on the boat, but obviously a place where a volunteer will end up if he or she is not careful.
- When Snicket was making his escape, these were the place that Jacques tells him not to go, as VFD eneimes will be there "disguised as passangers and/or seagulls." If they had spotted him, they would've thrown him overboard (I).
Trivia
- The name Prospero is taken from the main character of William Shakespeare's play The Tempest.
- According to Ishmael in The End, the Prospero was once known as the "Pericles."
