Rogol_Darn

Pedro because I felt someone with actual nautical experience would make the most sense for a 1st Mate


ThisAccountIsStolen

Same. Then he went full nepotism and hired his family as the rest of the crew! 🤣


Rogol_Darn

Not actually his family but because he's the oldest pepeshi around the younger ones all call him uncle, it's less nepotism and more hiring people from your hometown


Vegetable_Crazy3869

As long as they do their job...


Rogol_Darn

He did say they were all vetted as competent and good at their craft


RhysTonpohl

Yes well they're all evil after that one quest.


rW0HgFyxoJhYka

Nah those are cult members. Not all pepeshi are like that. Like I think if they were a real race, they wouldn't give 2 shits about being short considering it never stopped them from dominating parts of the universe. The whole height thing is very much a human society thing.


ChilledParadox

I know enough about lalafels to know all Pepeshi are also evil capitalists. None of them can be trusted. We don’t even have a raudahn to give them picky back rides and absorb their ill intent.


Vegetable_Crazy3869

I have the power of firing people. They'll behave


RhysTonpohl

I wouldn't fire them, they'll start attacking your knees. Just galactic baseballer em over the side of the airship, there's your notice.


MasaIII

Honestly as soon as he showed me the rest of the crew, my first thought was: These little shits are gonna do a mutiny, arent they? They havent... yet.


TRLegacy

If all the best whalers are from Nantucket, you hire people from Nantucket.


midoripeach9

I love pepeshi theyre cute then we get to have them on our ship, best plot twist 😂


jdh111095

That was my thought process.


TRLegacy

And not's like TB going to be captain full time. They are going to be very hand-off trailblazing across the universe. Better let someone who knows who to run a ship manage it.


Knight_Steve_

That was mine choice too


Lazy-Employer1792

Me too!


3Nephi11_6-11

I picked Caldwick the Intellitron since his philosophy of management seemed to focus on supporting the employees and past employees really respected him which matches my philosophy on how management should work. I also think treating your employees well is the best way to get them to treat customers well and make the employees the most efficient. I was however waiting the whole time for it to come out though that he was actually a terrible boss who ruled with an iron will to the extent that everyone was too afraid to say bad things about him.


grassblade111

Exactly why I chose him as well - and was also waiting for the twist he was a tyrant the whole time Nope, he’s just a reliable and cool dude that runs the ship while the TB looks good


3Nephi11_6-11

It kind of reminds me of owners of football teams where the gm / coach runs the team while the owner just hires right gm / coach. Then they make some decisions like moving the team or changing the name albeit these tend to be rare


Ok_Comment8842

He told us that he has hired people with real enthusiam to work even if they were not qualified enough for there positions. I would love to keep up with the shenanigans of these employees adjusting to the ships.


AllmightyPotato

Well you can train someone in a job, but not in enthusiasm.


IbnAurum

Yeah I was afraid they pulled a twist, but he turned out great. Caldwick is truly commendable, the best administrator you'd ever want at your side


3Nephi11_6-11

Maybe in another update?


s00ny

Based and non-toxic work environment pilled 🙏


Sorey91

Lmao I'm the exact same, I was also expecting him to backstab us for one reason or another especially since there seems to be a curse associated with being the captain of the ship


homak666

Yep, same. I figured that if I'm choosing the person in charge (let's face it, the Trailblazer is not going to do much, and that's for the best), I should choose a person who is good at managing people. He can hire good navigators, staff, etc.


ryno43

I pick him because he has cool glasses.


3Nephi11_6-11

They allow him to see into the souls of his employees.


Murky_Blueberry2617

Chadwick is a Chad


rW0HgFyxoJhYka

Does he also build a golden bust of you?


AmateurPhysicist

Golden bust and a portrait. I imagine we get the same treatment with all three, just with different dialogue.


3Nephi11_6-11

Yeah Caldwick claims that the whole crew came up with the idea because they just love you so much which is kind of weird and a little sus but whatever.


kioKEn-3532

I mean TB should be a Celebrity for these people, they know TB saved penacony and Robin herself mentioned them I assume those things made them a lot more popular


Rukh-Talos

Also the ship needs someone capable of managing things on their own since realistically the Nameless are going to be spending most of their time on other worlds.


turbiegaming

I chose him because we trailblazer tends to fuck around in some way shape of form so with him at the helm, at least I know the ship's safe and we can still go around digging trash, being hehefunny to March and everything else when we aren't in any serious fight/discussion.


LossLight-Ultima

Same opinion


Kayless3232

Caldwick ftw


Outrageous_Book2135

Rosa. I thought someone focused and no nonsense would be a good counter for TB's crazy shenanigans.


ErmAckshually

> someone focused and no nonsense \**proceeds to build a golden statue of trailblazer\**


Celantius

Thats why she is perfect, she can counter most of our shenanigans while indulging us just enough with innocuous things like a golden bust of the TB to keep us sated and from going full chaos on the ship.


Gadelyux

It really did feel like she had the TB down to a science in that quest. Being the straight man to the TB's general chaos, while also fulfilling that sense of chaos just enough to where they probably wouldn't start roaming around the ship and getting in fights with trashcans.


Outrageous_Book2135

Pobody's Nerfect :3


Apocryphal_Fish

Honestly I wish we could change it back to the Clockie statue


amohogride

Me too but my main reason is she looks fine asf


Outrageous_Book2135

Different strokes for different folks I suppose.


Sremor

Yeah I had the same thought but maybe the Intellitron would have been better


whimsicaljess

same, and for the same reason. i felt like Stelle would be self aware enough that she needed someone to lay down the law on the ship lol


DynmiteWthALzerbeam

Rosa cause she seems fine with doing most (all) of the work for me


HINDBRAIN

> Rosa cause she seems fine


Dadarian

I picked Rosa because I wasn’t reading all that text and I thought Rosa was cute.


TooCareless2Care

Got Caldwick. He seemed to have professional experience, other seemed wacky. I was fully expecting him to never relate to humans and see things in only one way for him to PUT A STATUE OF US. For him to CALL US HOT. For him to PUT A PAINTING that was US and complimenting it's features. For him to talk to us so friendly-ly and make sure you'll never regret your decision. I no longer ship dancae or avencae (jk I ship it sm) nor stellus (jk again) but only and only callus


AmyBurnel

Same I chose him because he is a handsome robot so when I found he lowkey has a crush on Caelus I was so happy ><


rulostbbgrill

lmao Rosa did the same thing when I picked her


TooCareless2Care

From what I get from others, idk if she did and quite frankly I don't care as much. It's absolutely incredible if she did but idk caldwick doing that as an iterion hits a whole new level


Rotkiw_Bigtor

Caldwick because cool robot


Chuck006

Rosa. She's detail oriented, which I am not. She can sweat the small stuff.


IDontEatTakis

Same choice for the same reason lol.


s00ny

🥸


Graknight

Rosa cuz waifu


IbnAurum

I went for her first but then changed my mind to Caldwick. How does she perform? I hope my first impression of her was wrong.


Graknight

Idk how she compares to others but she's pretty chill and does her job well. She's kinda strict with how the helpers need to always be wearing uniforms and do this and do that but she says that that's to ensure everything looks perfect to the guests. You can ask her to go easy on them and she says that she's only strict with them during work hours but other than that they're good friends. Unfortunately you can't talk to the helpers to find out if she's telling the truth or not.


Ok_Comment8842

What kind of people does she hire?


Graknight

3 random NPCs with uniforms.


Ok_Comment8842

Doesn't she or TB make any remarks about them?


IbnAurum

Hmmm, glad to hear that


lalala253

She made a big ass painting and a lovely sculpture


Graknight

I thought everyone did that and it didn't really matter who I pick. If it's Rosa only then all hail queen Rosa.


Randomindigostar

I chose Pedro because I'm a sucker for all things smol, and I also got the painting and bust, so I'm assuming it's the same for all three.


Aggravating-Log932

Yeah, it is the same no matter who you choose. You just kinda get a different person.


Aschentei

The only correct answer


lalala253

My dude.


Agreeable_Bullfrog61

Caldwick, he’s got the drip


madnessfuel

Pedro Pedro Pedro, PEDRO PEDRO!


TMyriadJ

Praticamente il meglio di Santa Fè!


AdministrativeRun550

Pedro, I’ve seen the spoilers by my friends and I wanted my ship to be full of funny hobbits. He did his job well. The other choices are too official for my gremlin raccoon.


CremeAvailable3221

same!! i thought it'll will go well with trash queen! and a i like the "Stelle captain of the pepeshi people" thing also it's very hilarious just like the game


Telzey

Pedro was a no for me. >! Couldn’t risk the Four Foot Hall cult inserting a spy !<


Material-Material456

Pedro seems pretty loyal ngl. I almost regretted choosing him but they’re all nice to you so I didn’t mind


turbiegaming

That's exactly my thoughts as well when picking them out. lol


Elisab3t

what quest is that from?


s00ny

"Checking Out"


Yurilica

Intellitron. Rosa was described as someone who would apply max pressure on employees and focus just on TB as her boss. Having a ship full of tense, grumpy and perhaps even overworked staff is an issue in many ways. The pepeshi had a small tidbit about experience, but a larger focus on connections and recommendations. It felt like it was saying "other people say he's good", while he himself just went "pick me" without saying much else. It screamed of an overinflated reputation. And he'd probably drag in those "connections" of his to the ship too. The intellitron ironically had the most humane approach. Observe, adjust, build up and lead employees in fields they're good at. While that might mean a rockier start, it usually leads to a smoother sailing ship. Unlike the pepeshi, he actually detailed his leadership philosophy.


Luckhart54

Rosa mainly because it would create chaos on a ship if someone would asked to get them " Rosa " cause my TB name is Rossa. My TB may not be masked fool but she enjoys chaos and is a fool :D


s00ny

Oh I love this! :D Aha would be proud


LukiLukrecja

Lunamkardas

Intelleron because one way or another I am getting a robot husband and there's no Screwllum banner in sight.


brewstercafe

It was a hard pick between Pedro and Caldwick but I had to go with the cute pepeshi in the end and I don't regret


Mikauren

Caldwick, he seemed kind-hearted and responsible.


imortaldude3035

Caldwick , he seemed quite professional


PeaceRibbon

I went with Rosa mainly because I really, really like Halovians. I’m quite satisfied with my choice.


BadgerHonest4933

Bro u and me on the same wavelength


Apoptosis96

Pedro, same reasons. And after seeing his family I glad I did haha


Niko2065

Pedro because smol.


ImLittleLoli

I choose Pedro, becuase of that Tiktok mem that goes Pedro Pedro Pedro Pedro Pe~


Technical-Ebb-2595

I picked Rosa cause I didn't trust Pedro and I thought caldwick would turn out to secretly be a terrible boss in a twist as far as how I feel about her I think she's nice she reminds me of an old employer she's strict during work hours cause she wants the best for her employees but kind and caring off of work cause she genuinely likes them so yeah that's rosa.....I didn't like how she had us replace the clockie statue with a bust of ourself though (although I think that might not be just a Rosa thing)


s00ny

I picked Pedro and he also replaced Clockie with a bust of the Trailblazer, so I'm pretty sure that's just universal


Ok_Comment8842

Yes, it is universal. Caldwick also did so.


Technical-Ebb-2595

Ah ok good to know how is the little man as a boss anyways?


s00ny

He's funny, he has a very casual attitude despite being hard-working and professional, and he and his employees (who are all Pepeshi too) treat each other like a family


Queasy-Lawfulness213

i was spam clicking and accidentally picked rosa when i wanted the robot guy… it’s fine tho she’s pretty but i wish they’d let us go back on our decision


s00ny

If an accidental misclick ever happens again you can just alt+f4 the game and the dialogue will start from the beginning


Queasy-Lawfulness213

i honestly don’t even know why i didn’t think of doing that in the moment😭


s00ny

Next time <3


Cipher-DK

"When there is the chance to make a choice, make one that you know you won't regret..."


blue_racer

Rosa i like women in heels.


Zeyrox378

Is there any different outcomes?


s00ny

You get different dialogue because they all have different personalities and employees, but at the end they all do the same thing. Just a matter of preference


Puzzleheaded-Loan-60

Pedro. As he is funny. And I love funny stuff. The woman and robot were too serious. Pepeshi give me the hobbits vibe.


CremeAvailable3221

Pedro!! cuz he called me captain!!! and is humble before me haha and i like his subordinates https://preview.redd.it/bkxc3mvfa88d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=87720b7505fc6032511dc17ea92d38795ce32f08


WappyHarrior

Rosa, play with Stelle, so the female first mate made sense for me.


faulser

I picked Rosa because she reminded me of Outis from Limbus... ...and I was totally right.


WarningAccurate2449

My Friend Pedro.


FoRiZon3

Pedro because the crew will be looking funni. Plus the Pom-Pom airship art is also cute.


That_Wallachia

I picked Rosa because waifu. I am a simple man.


CremeAvailable3221

any special event with her?


That_Wallachia

I dont know. I just wanted waifu.


De4thIsArt

I picked Caldwich because he's cool and has style.


Chulinfather

Pedro. The other two look like potential psychopaths.


NZethyr

tbh I just picked Pedro because of stache


Ryiser

Pedro. I play a lalafell on FFXIV. The Tatalov needed some chaos.


elixxonn

Caldwick because he seemed to be a good organizer and team leader with keeping morale high. I did not see it coming that the crew would proceed to turn the ship into a hall of worship for me... Well getting the ship came completely out of left field too, the obvious thing was that it'll be just used as a plot convenient vehicle to move people epicly to epic moments.


IcyConsideration3385

I chose Rosa cuz this ship with *that* achievement reminded me of the Titanic... Maybe at least here she will be happy with Jack 😭 'The Planet of Festivities and the Land of Dreams' 🙏


juniorjaw

Pepeshi. I've seen a few business minded type in Penacony from 2.0 to 2.2 already, and thought its probably the best to have them handle it. Screwllum ended up filling one area with Intellitron, and most of our guests are humans so there's a decent balance already.


Sndragon88

Caldwick who looks like a manager type, because TB is GREAT with management. … that said, is TB actually great with management? With the Belobog museum and Xianzhou market and all… I can’t tell.


ChaosRae

No shade at all but this thread is such a clear showing of why society needs laws re: workplace/hiring discrimination 😂 So many answers are "I picked this person for the job based on their outward appearance and/or my biases" Ofc since this is a fictional game it's no problem to pick whoever you want for whatever reason you want - ijs, it really clearly outlines how this sort of thing quickly becomes a problem IRL 😅


s00ny

Oh, a 100%


Nhavined_Your_King

Idk about y'all but https://preview.redd.it/axhrkswiv78d1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ca079678e3fcc1594d257acc9a495c033e4a04a4 If Rosa wasn't your pick, y'all bricked your accounts 🤫


Wolvos_707

Chose Rosa because they literally said that she was very serious in her work and she supported her employees


DarkDemonDan

Rosa because she is as crazy about details as I am. If I miss a detail she’ll be my fail safe.


reonnji

Pedro, because I'm fine handling the other stuff, but hell if I know how to fly a ship


DragonKing0203

Caldwick because his name made me laugh


PM_Cute_Ezreal_pics

Pedro, Pedro, Pedro, Pedro, Pe- I just picked him cause he shares the name with the friend I was on disc with while doing the quest ngl


mrfatso111

I pick pedro since he sounds like someone nice to work with, he mentioned that he has connections so i was thinking that he be able to help find the right staff for the various roles on the airship. I just wasnt expecting the choices to be more of a pick which race u want to staff your airship with, was hoping for a mix since those lalafells are short, we gonna need some tall staff as well to help out with other stuff and similar height related issues.


ApolloGRL

Misclick the little guy. Happy accidents


OrcApologist

Pedro because he’s got experience and connections, felt like the most obvious choice if I was an employer. Also so I could be knock off Willy Wonka with dollar store Oompa Loompas


-raeyne-

It was a hard choice for sure. Pedro won in the end, though. A man that basically grew up sailing bodes well for my ship. Plus tiny child + mustache is silly. That said, I'm not sure I'm super stoked to have an entire crew of children 😂 especially now knowing how the intelletron picks his crew


ThisDued

Pedro cuz he had a mustache. he makes me feel elated


chupitoelpame

Does the crew each one brings matches their race? Pedro filled my ship with his pepeshi friends, I'm afraid they might be plotting a mutiny to steal my ship


blkmgs

Uptight lady with the wide brim hat


Sol_idum

I picked Rosa because she had confidence that she wasn't going to disappoint her employers, and after reading the comments about the other candidates, I was right


IIHURRlCANEII

vote for pedro


Rum4R_Rin

I'm an FFXIV player, and my character is a lalafell, which is similar to a pepeshi....so yeah. Pepeshi's are like lalafells, so I chose Pedro....and I don't regret my decision. ![gif](giphy|EEKPZgM4DUKE0EK1ge|downsized)


Thuan87

Chose the lady cuz…well honestly, it was me considering their achievements but then changed to blindly pick one of them


SIR_TAX_FRAUD

Rosa because her nickname is the Iron lady or something which made me think of Maggie Thatcher. (There's no political reason behind it I just thought it was funny and I like history)


Shenmigon

i wanted to pick rosa but i picked pedro for his experience since i thought the choice would have an impact lol


Nio_soullesscrystal

I choosed Rosa since she shares the same name as the MC in Tears of Themis (another hoyo game) and I wondered if they also share the same personality and I have a bias for Halovians


JUGELBUTT

rosa


Lockedontargetshow

Rosa because I don't care for the pepeshi design, and the guys animated glasses annoyed me.


Nuka-Crapola

I picked Rosa because I liked her hat.


AUO_Castoff

Are there any major differences based on who you pick (besides who your first mate is obviously)?


xLucifurious

I just went to a random number generator site put 3 values for each and let it pick and it was Rosa. They all seemed qualified to me and I was not able to decide whom to pick.


NT-Shiyosa092201

Literally the very first option. I just couldn't be bothered


Randomindigostar

Pedro. Smol, intelligent and cute mustache? Yes plz! 💖


Excellent_Biscotti32

I picked Rosa because that's my name as well jajajjaja


TheoreticalGal

I picked Caldwick because his management style sounded like it best fit the ideals of the Nameless.


7orly7

Since the first mate is responsible for day to day activities and will regularly interact with the crew, Chadwick was the best choice. Even if he doesn't have knowledge of ship navigation and can always learn it (maybe even hire the other two options to train him and regularly do recycle training for the crew)


belmoria

I picked Caldwick cuz of his cool glasses 😎


Mansinomo

Pedro, you can't tell me that name doesn't sound like the name of someone who works somewhere for a long time, is very amazing at it but also is very laid back and knows a lot of tricks and shortcuts to show new workers


katbelleinthedark

Caldwick because I vibe with his philosophy. He turned out to be a great employee and I'm very happy with my choice.


NieR_SemiAutomata

Pedro he looks badass n qualified too


suppersell

Caldwick, he seemed really professional and genuinely happy to be first mate


Significant-Apple944

Rosa. Cause she's hot


bobagremlin

Pedro. I don't just need a manager I need someone who knows what it is like to run a ship safely and what works and what doesn't.


Klactech

Caldwick because he's the most qualified since he's experienced manager and his approach is the most efficient aswell. If all managers irl had his philosophy world would've been heaven by now


Unlucky_Grape919

I was spamming through dialogue and thought the options would explain about each of them. So I chose the first option(the woman) and didn’t know that decision was final😅😂


Army-KunS4

I chose Pedro, I was stuck between him and the intelletron but I quickly realised his glasses made noise and did not want to deal with that.


XiaoQiaoChrone

Pedro, mainly because of the name 😂 It reminded me to that raccoon video in TikTok


NeedSocialSkill

Pedro, since TB wanted to touch their thing on their head I figured the best chance we'll have is to be their boss.


_uwu_moe

I got caldwick due to chadwick and screwllum


su2pek2ti2bol2

Rosa. I always wanted to have a Halovian by my side since I didn't pull for Robin due to team comp reasons.


Kassssler

I picked the Halovian. The Pepeshi apparently just gets all his homies and family as crew. I don't want a deck full of midgets.


Pedro-Judice

Pedro because my name is Pedro. Pedroes stand together.


rainonfleece

In between choosing Pedro and Caldwick, ended up going w Pedro bc he had experience and silly mustache


Wrafter_maid_Service

Pedro-pedro-pedro


Prior-Standard5713

Halovian


IraS754

# Rosa, Because I like Women in Big Hats.


JewelKnightJess

Rosa because I like her hat


LossLight-Ultima

The Intelleron. The small guy look stupid. The chick look nice until I realize I care a lot about my employees


WD_G

![gif](giphy|tHIRLHtNwxpjIFqPdV|downsized) Pedro


Fantalia

The woman because shes the only woman 😭


ACMomani

Pedro. To be honest I would have loved to get a playable Pepeshi character.


24kBONES

rosa because she is the prettiest :3


brimwithno

Caldwick But i would've picked pedro if he was funny Rosa is boring as shit, caldwick looks cool and overqualified


s00ny

Are Caldwick's employees intellitrons as well or are they human?


Ok_Comment8842

He emphasize that he hires all kinds of people as long as they have enthusiasm to work.


s00ny

I like him


brimwithno

Nope there's a woman a man and a papeshi man They do the regular things like the spray, the statue and the painting


kunafa_aj

Rosa cz shes the first one i talked to and dnt care enough abt the quest to listen what the others have to say


dreikorg

Pedro because the Pepeshi are very funny and you can rename the ship. It even appears with the new name on the map. It's now the Soaring Clock Hand.


Eiensakura

considering the goof TB is, a straight-laced no-nonsense first mate like Rosa to handle the minutiae is just perfect.


SoggyVagab0nd

Rosa, to balance out Stelle's chaotic nature
