What this is

Ruchbah is a fixed star the chart engine carries, at magnitude 2.66.

What it governs

The catalogue holds this star's position and its own motion, not a body of lore about it — a star's apparent place is its J2000 position carried forward and referred to the ecliptic of the date, exactly as a planet's is.
