Realmspace
For information on Realmspace prior to The Shattering, see The Spelljammer Wiki, noting some information may be changed within the Enerithan setting.
Realmspace, known as the Sea of Night by the natives of Toril, is about 6,400 million miles (10,300 million kilometres) in diameter. Its wildspace is slightly warmer than that of Greyspace, to the point where spacefarers can wear light garments and outfits suitable for summer weather.
Realmspace is a heliocentric system, with the following Celestial Bodies in order from the centre:
- The Sun (Realmspace), size H spherical fire body
- Anadia, B spherical earth
- Coliar, G spherical air
- Toril, E spherical earth
- Karpri, D spherical water
- Chandos, F spherical water
- Glyth, E spherical earth
- Garden, A cluster asteroids
- H'catha, D disc water
- Caer Windlauer a majestic castle surrounded by thousands of acres of grounds that travels around the Sun in a slightly elliptical orbit, much like a comet.
- Color Spray Nebula a massive fan-shaped rainbow-colored gaseous-cloud that slowly orbits around the Sun, and is revered by the worshippers of Mystra as a sign of their goddess's approval, and by the cult of Bane as the embodiment of their god's wrath.
- K'Thoutek a cometary body that travels around the Sun in an elliptical orbit, and is believed to be haunted by the spirit of the grand wizard of the K'Thoutek oortlings.
- Galleon Nebula a massive multicolored galleon-shaped gaseous-cloud that slowly orbits the Sun. Torilian astrologers believe the nebula was placed in the heavens by the gods of magic as a sign that they should embrace spelljamming, whereas others believe it serves as a warning against the dangers of wildspace.
- King-Killer Star a cometary body that orbits the Sun and periodically passess close enough to be seen in the skies of Toril, where it is closely linked to a mystical rage that overcomes those dragons inhabiting the planet.
- Skull of the Void a massive skull-shaped celestial object that floats in the edge of wildspace near the shore of the astral sea. Not to be confused with the Rageskull in Blackrock Space
- Blackrock Space (aka Blackrock Cove)
