[QUOTE="Alzrius, post: 2126430, member: 8461"] Since [I]Spectre of the Black Rose[/I], and, more recently, [I]Ravenloft Gazetteer IV[/I], the disparity of Sithicus's moon from that of the rest of the Core has been resolved somewhat. Prior to the Hour of Screaming Shadows, Nuitari was the only moon in Sithicus (it functioned the same as it did on Krynn). However, in the days leading up to the HoSS, Solinari appeared, and Lunitari did also with a few hours to spare. After the Hour of Screaming Shadows ended, the moon was now a tripartite moon of white, black, and red. According to Gaz IV (as I understand it anyway, it's not completely clear from the wording) the new Nuitari looks normal (like the moon elsewhere) except to creatures with supernatural or spell-like abilities (I assume the ability to cast spells must be there somewhere also). For them, neutral creatures see a rose-like design on the moon, and evil creatures see more horrendous things (no mention of good creatures). Of course, the unnatural shadows it casts on the landscape are visible to everyone. As before, Nuitari's waxing and waning affects the power of (only) arcane spellcasters. However, it now follows a full-month cycle, instead of just eight days. Also, it's bonuses and penalties are reversed from what they were (as happened to much of Sithicus). I vaguely recall this, and while it never had any official errata or retraction, everyone pretty much ignores it (especially since this domain is supposed to be from Toril, which has one moon).
