Adventures in Arcadayn
The Heavens (Pan-Kemil)
By Tim Emrick
The universe is geocentric (Kemil is at the center). Some scholars refer to the universe as a whole as "Pan-Kemil" ("all worlds"). The order of planets and other bodies is as follows:
- KEMIL (Earth)
- DOSHONOS (primary Moon) [white]
- THE DOSHONIDS (secondary moons, orbiting Doshonos, in order of nearest orbits):
- PALOGIL (2nd moon) [pale red]
- LASTOS (3rd moon) [blue-gray]
- PRANIL (4th moon) [pale yellow]
- KOBOS (5th moon) [brown]
- URALOS (Sun) [yellow-white]
- RASHIL (Sun's Handmaiden) (orbiting Uralos) [white]
- TOVANIL (Morning Star/Evening Star) [blue-white]
- YANIL [yellow-green]
- CANTHOS [red-brown]
- DRUMAGIL (Blood Planet) [bright red]
- KULDOS (moon of Drumagil)
- DEMON PLANETS (three planets sharing an orbit, 120º apart):
- HADIL (The Black Planet, cannot be seen except by magic or occulting)
- SHULKOS [gray]
- ZUKUVOS [dark green]
- THE STARS, including:
- PHAOS (Pole Star)
- The 12 Zodiac constellations, including INGOS (Giant)
Each heavenly body is associated with a god with the same name root: Male gods have names ending in -or and planets with names ending in -os; goddesses have names ending in -ira and planets with names ending in -il.
