eredon detail (Eredon)
Eredon
Eredon is the ocean moon you live on. It orbits Heligor Prime, tidally locked, so one face of Eredon always points toward Heligor. Players in the Heligor-facing hemisphere see the gas giant permanently fixed in their sky; players on the far side never see it at all.
Mass, size, and gravity
Mass 5.08 × 10²⁴ kg
about 0.85 times Earth's mass
Radius 5,900 km
about 0.93 times Earth's radius
Gravity 9.8 m/s²
effectively the same as Earth at sea level
Surface
About 85% of Eredon's surface is ocean (Earth is about 71%). Dry land is fragmented into islands, reefs, and a few larger continents.
Time on Eredon
A day on Eredon is 30 game-hours long, the same as one orbit of Eredon around Heligor (that is what tidal lock means). A year is 200 game-days, which is one full orbit of Heligor around the sun. All dates, times, and orbital periods in game readouts use this calendar, not real-world time.
