Ramasi

Ramasi is the sixth planet orbiting Rican and the largest of the planets in the Ricanor System and the only one with a ring system. Ramasi's gravity interacts with other objects in space, especially Rican, the other eight planets of the Ricanor System and Ramasi's ring system and eleven natural satellites, Poulu, Fott, Remanen, Golan, Tordesh, Vlanen, Kwell, Garthen, Rigo, Lanroni Caren and Lanroni Civsen. Ramasi revolves around Rican in about 746 (Morkean) days, a period known as a Ramasean year. Observations from Morkas suggest that as the rotation of Ramasi is much slower than Girnas then, to an observer on Ramasi, a Ramasean year has only 22 Ramasean days.

Observations from Morkas seem to indicate that Ramasi has a thick, volitile, orange-red atmosphere; this also means no estimate can be made of the planet's surface area.

Ramasi's ring system is a thin band of probably ice and rock orbiting the planet.

Ramasi has eleven natural satellites, Poulu - a tiny, icy moon, Fott - a large, dusty-yellow moon (even larger than Thoroni), Remanen - a small, magenta-hued moon, Golan - a small, icy moon, Tordesh - the largest, rocky moon (even larger than Thoroni), Vlanen - a small moon with a pale blue atmosphere, Kwell - a large, rocky moon (even larger than Thoroni), Garthen - a tiny moon with a thick, pale-purple atmosphere, Rigo - a small, icy moon, Lanroni Caren - a medium sized moon with a red-hued surface, and Lanroni Civsen - a small moon with a red-hued surface.

Name
The name Ramasi is taken from the pre-Rethist ruler God (Ramasi). The moons have a variety of names: Poulu, Fott and Golan were his hounds, Remanen, Vlanen and Garthen were the homes of Reman, Vlan and Garthe respectively (his daughters), Tordesh was his sword, Kwell and Rigo were the pre-Rethist lesser-gods of song and rhyme, and from the Thanorian Lanroni is derived from Lan meaning "bright" and roni meaning "ruddy" (i.e. red-coloured), "Caren" means "greater" and "Civsen" means "lesser".
