Caged Catch is a cargo item.

Description

"A wild sky-beast. Exotic. Contained. Furious."

Obtaining

Caged Catch can be obtained in many ways.

The repeatable ways to obtain Caged Catch are:

• Purchasing it from The House of Rods and Chains (see Shop availability below).
• Killing a Bull Cantankeri and choosing to Capture a lesser cantankeri clinging to the bull's underbelly successfully can gives you one Caged Catch. Note that even if you succeed, you may still lose Crew.
• Destroying a Star-Seared Explorer and choosing to Search for something you can trade.
• Join a hunting party at Leadbeater & Stainrod's Nature Reserve. This is a particularly high Iron check (100 Iron to pass 100%).
• If you have two Fuel and discovered A Windswept Habitation inhabitated by skylarks, you may be able to Trade with them. One of the two cargo that you can get from them is a Caged Catch.
• The option to Conduct an excavation at A Celestial Ruin may gives you one.
• Harvest Unidentifiable Squirming on the mist surrounding Worlebury-juxta-Mare and exchanged them in St Anthony's Lighthouse.
• After having enough of An Awareness of Something... Off in Worlebury-juxta-Mare, go to The Pebble Beach and Wonder: what makes the jaunt so disconcerting?.
• Purchasing one from The Market of Truth in the Avid Horizon. This is 50 Sovereigns cheaper than the normal market price.
• When travelling The Sun-Shattered Dome in The Clockwork Sun, you may discover a gold carousel. Choosing to Investigate the carousel successfully will give you one Caged Catch.
• Getting A treble-locked case from a Cache of Curiosities may give you one.
• If your Terror rises too high, you may find that Your Caged Catch has Escaped! Under certain circumstances, you may be able to Help it reproduce. This is a particularly high Mirrors check (100 Mirrors to pass 100%).
• Various Bargains (see Bargains below).
