Felucca
Felucca
An image of Britannia’s smaller moon, Felucca. This moon has an orbit of 14 days, meaning it completes two full rotations each month. The phase of Felucca determines the destination of a blue moongate after midnight.
This image is derived from its appearance in Ultima 9, during cutscenes. Some modifications were made, as the entirety of the moon’s surface was not onscreen at any one time.
In-game, Felucca shone with a slightly bluish tint.
Oooohh. I need that. Nice find.
Easy to forget about her when most of the games are isometric and “Moon’s eye” perspective. Hopefully the fan remakes will give the moon – and her tie to the moongates – fair justice. It’d be cool to create some of Britannia’s constellations too.
Well, the only named constellations are the “Ankh” and “Hammer of Tulure”, and of those only the Ankh was pictured.

If I create a skymap (its on my to-do list), it will feature these two at a minimum. I’m hoping to include the eight “planets” and several other constellations as well.
