Satellites Edit

Exandria has two moons^[5][1][6], named Catha and Ruadis.^[7]

• Catha is similar in appearance to Earth's Moon, though it is closer to Exandria and appears larger in the sky.^[6] It has a 30 to 40 day cycle during which it waxes and wanes.^[8]
• Ruadis appears smaller in Exandria's sky due to its further distance from the planet, and its reddish-purple, maroon-brown color contributes to a dimmer glow.^[6]  Lycanthropy is relatively unaffected by this moon in comparison to the closer moon.^[9] It has a very slow orbit, taking a full year for a revolution, and is visible for about half of the year.^[10]
