Nerad

Nerad is the smallest important™ moon of Nerella.
== Physical Characteristics ==
Although Nerad may not look particularly interesting, one of the most striking features about it is that it is very spherical. Scientists are still unsure as to how it has managed to remain this spherical when it is so tiny and unable to maintain hydrostatic equilibrium. The best explanation scientists have is that nothing much has happened to it since its formation. This is unsatisfactory, because it undergoes immense tidal forces from Nerella as it nears periapsis.
== Orbit ==
Nerad has the most ellliptical orbit of any moon in the Verda System, coming within 1.5 Teralla radii of Nerella's surface. It is thought to have formed in a more circular orbit, but was disrupted into this insanely inclined and eccentric orbit by Trantin's capture into the system. It is unknown how Okari escaped a similar fate. Other, closer moons were completely ejected from the Nerella system, explaining the extreme overabundance of dwarf planets in the Verda System. Siskruo in particular is thought to be a former major moon of Nerella.
== Biomes ==
Nerad has 6 biomes.
* Ice Spikes
* Melne Crater
* Craters
* Lowlands
* Midlands
* Highlands
== Trivia ==
* Nerad has the most elliptical orbit of any known moon.
* It has a large amount of small unexplainable spikes covering its surface.
