'''Vivacia''' is the [[liveship]] of the [[Vestrit|Vestrit family]]. She has golden colored locks of hair, a bare chest, and green eyes. She was built of the [[wizardwood]] cocoon that would have become the dragon [[Bolt]].
She was quickened after [[Ephron Vestrit]] died. [[Althea Vestrit]] was thought to take her captaincy after his father, but instead, at [[Ronica Vestrit|Ronica]]'s decision, Vivacia was inherited by her sister [[Keffria Vestrit|Keffria]], thus Keffria's husband [[Kyle Haven]] became her captain. As he is not of the Vestrit blood, he decided to take their son [[Wintrow Vestrit|Wintrow]] on board to keep Vivacia company.
Even though Vivacia was newly quickened, child-like, Kyle decided to use her as a slaver to gain larger profits to pay off the price of her to the [[Festrew]] family of [[Rain Wild Traders]]. As a liveship is able to feel the emotions of her crew and those aboard her this was not a wise decision. Not even the company of Wintrow could keep Vivacia happy, as he wasn't happy himself but wanted to go back to his monastery. This is why the pirate [[Kennit]] found it so easy to capture her ‚Äî her‚ she didn't like her captain or crew. At the moment Kennit chose to conquer her there was a slave uprising going on and no-one was tending the sails or the wheel. Under the normal circumstances wooden ships can't overtake liveships as they are able to help their crew.
Kennit, being of an [[Old Trader]] family himself, was able to make Vivacia happier than Kyle could, and though she had a close family bond with Wintrow, Kennit knew how to relate better to a liveship.
