Lunar Impact on Tides and Magic

Tohr is orbited by two moons, Lordt and Lurdt. The lunar pull of their aspherical paths impacts many aspects of life on Tohrn. Oceanic tides are complicated in their frequency, but still follow certain predictable patterns. Every 15 years, there is a perfect alignment which creates massive shift of the currents. This shift is known as Hal's Reckoning and causes waters to flow into a giant waterspout near the equator in the middle of the Aqos Ocean. The shorelines see a drop in tide levels that lowers the water table by 15 feet. Hundreds of miles of shoreline become exposed for a brief period. These lunar movements also impact magic. Each of the four houses of magic (Arcanic, Holy, Druidic, and Bardic) have a direct relationship with different celestial bodies outside the atmosphere of Tohrn. Each day one house has slightly more influence than the others. This is most clearly noticed by a higher potency spells, longer duration, or unique critical effects. The many numerous celestial bodies have yet to be mapped by Tohrnians and are still unpredictable
