Choma Wiki

Chὀma, the world described here, is an invention of my own (with help from my players) for my home game of D&D.


 * Chὀma has two suns, one is much like our own, and the other is smaller and farther away, (it would be like if Jupiter was a star). There are 7 other planets in the system that can be seen with the current technology, and in Enkratis they are named for the 7 gods of their pantheon.
 * Chὀma has 3 moons, 1 large, 2 small. The large moon, Whaea, is itself orbited by one of the smaller moons, Tamahine, while Atali'i orbits Chὀma slower. (The names are ancient, coming eons before the Lost Kingdom, most countries and continents use these names. The lone exception is Dotesh, which calls the moons, Eebu, Bintee, and Biin).
 * The largest moon, Whaea/Eebu, appears to have large lakes and vegetation upon it, based on observations by astronomers.
