-The Raiken are not keenly aware of the passage of time as their planet is tidally locked. In the days of old, Raiken usually slept when they were tired and ate when they were hungry and they still do to an extent. Their 'days' are roughly 26 hours long due to this long-held tradition, though only through technology are they able to track the hours passing by.+The Raiken are not keenly aware of the passage of time as their planet is tidally locked.

-They can, however, track the passage of months. Their moons, Rel and Ral, both take around 24 'days' to orbit the planet. The moons are always on the exact opposite side of the planet from each other. When Rel is are the north pole, where the sun never shines, Ral is at the south pole, where day burns forever. Each orbit of the moon is simply called an 'orbit' and thirteen orbits make up a RAC, (Raiconian Alliance Cycle).+They can, however, track the passage of months.

 Most Raiken are unable to utilize the power of magic, but a select few are gifted in these arts. Magic is a practice that most believe to be a part of storyteller's embellishment, however this is not the case. Many of the heroes of old were capable magical users, many of which earning the title of 'Sage'. Most Raiken are unable to utilize the power of magic, but a select few are gifted in these arts.
