[QUOTE="jonesy, post: 5451224, member: 10324"] I was making a star map, but real life intruded and I don't have much of it finished. Here are the poles: [b]Fool's Kingdom[/b]: a constellation of five pole stars of the south. They have an odd off-center circular pattern where the position of the true south pole star switches almost bi-monthly. Whichever is the current pole is said to determine fate for the southern world, and gets called the King of Fate (unless it's The Wicked who gets called the Queen of Fate, or the blue who is special). The five stars of the Fool's Kingdom are: - The faintly red [b]Noom[/b], and he is the Thieves' Star. - The dark and almost invisible [b]M[/b], who brings unpredictable weather. - The white bright (and always visible) [b]The Wicked Princess[/b], who shines as bright as the full moon during her reign (so it's basically similar to about two weeks of full moon). - The faint blue star which has no name, and whose season is the season of the common people, and also a common time historically for rebellions, uprisings and assassinations. - The bright blue [b]Colll[/b] who is said to be a mortal who became a god. No-one agrees what his season stands for. So you could say "Noom is the King of Fate. Take care of your belongings, fair travellers from the North." or "This is the season of the common people, My Lord. If you hurt me or my family the fates will surely punish you." [b]The Cieran Twins[/b] are together the north pole star. [b]Go[/b] is yellow, and [b]Yiu[/b] is white. Not a binary, since Go is actually quite a long way from the other, just really bright. They are part of the constellation [b]Vengeance of Rail[/b]. Rail can usually be used as a guide to get where you want to go, but sometimes stars belonging to it become occluded, and on rare occasions the entire constellation will seem to vanish from the sky, as if something black and massive had moved to block it.
