[QUOTE="Crimson Longinus, post: 9313337, member: 7025508"] Yes! And in a typical binary system they do so rather regularly. We had such an eclipse in my game a while ago. It was not a big deal, so I voted "uneventful" as it is not a rare thing in the setting. So basically the two suns eclipsing each other is considered holy, and has particular importance to the clergy of Khanda Aruna, the twin suns. So the characters were travelling at a desert when the eclipse occurred, and came upon a group of pilgrims who were praying during this sacred moment. However, a juvenile sand worm had also spotted the pilgrims and the characters. The characters noticed the shaking caused by the worm, but the pilgrims were too preoccupied with their holy ritual to detect this, let alone attempt to run to safety, so the characters had to save them. The world also has three moons, so what I was thinking when there were all this talk about the eclipse, that in theory it would be possible for two of the moons to eclipse both of the suns at the same time, but that would have to be an incredibly rare occurrence.
