'''Rodan''' is one of the notable [[extension]]s of the [[slendric]] [[regular temperament|temperament]], which divides the perfect fifth, [[3/2]], into three equal intervals representing [[8/7]] ([[tempering out]] the gamelisma, [[1029/1024]]), reaching the full [[7-limit]] such that 17 of these [[generators]] [[stacking|stack]] to reach the interval class of the [[5/1|5th harmonic]]. It tempers out [[245/243]], making it a [[sensamagic clan|sensamagic temperament]], so that [[5/3]] is divided into two intervals of [[9/7]]; and it tempers out [[5120/5103]], making it also a [[hemifamity temperaments|hemifamity temperament]], so that [[9/8]] stacks thrice into [[10/7]].

As can be elucidated by [[S-expression]]s, rodan is very much an "opposed counterpart" to mothra: the basic equivalence of slendric tempers S7 (49/48) = S8 (64/63), and mothra proceeds to equate it to S6 ([[36/35]]) as well; meanwhile, rodan extends the equivalence in the opposite direction to add S9 (81/80) to it, making it one of the five [[rank-2 temperament]]s definable by equating three adjacent square superparticulars.

As for further extensions, slendric temperaments often find [[55/32]] at 4 generator steps (tempering out [[385/384]] and [[441/440]]), giving new interpretations to the quark as [[55/54]] and [[56/55]]; 55/32 is particularly accurate in the tuning subrange appropriate for rodan, and so [[11/1|harmonic 11]] can easily be found at -13 generator steps. It is also worth mentioning that this equates the diatonic major third to [[14/11]], tempering out [[896/891]]. A [[2.3.7.11 subgroup]] version of rodan, known as ''radon'', uses exclusively this mapping and forgoes interpreting the 5th harmonic.

Toward the [[13-limit]], the diatonic minor third ([[32/27]]) in hemifamity temperaments represents the square root of [[7/5]], for which [[13/11]] is a good interpretation (tempering out [[352/351]] and [[847/845]]), which turns out to place [[13/1|harmonic 13]] at -22 generator steps. Finally, [[17/13]] is a good interpretation of the slendric subfourth comprising two generators, otherwise equated to [[21/16]] (tempering out [[273/272]] and [[833/832]]), and this places [[17/1|harmonic 17]] at -20 generator steps. Thus proceeds the canonical extension of rodan out to the [[17-limit]].

== Interval chain ==
== Interval chain ==
When speaking of interval categories, as an extension of slendric it is possible to use a system [[Slendric#Interval categories|designed for slendric]], where notes are inflected from the diatonic [[chain of fifths]] by means of the prefixes "super" and "sub", such that three of these inflections stack to a diatonic minor second. These "super" and "sub" prefixes are equivalent to "up" and "down" in [[#Notation|the notation]] system, where lifts and drops would represent a single edostep in [[ups and downs notation]] in the context of larger rodan edos that map this comma to multiple edosteps.

Such an inflection is equivalent to a quark, and due to the quark's versatile nature in rodan as a generalized comma, simple pental and septimal intervals tend to be represented by single-quark offsets from the diatonic spine. These "super" and "sub" prefixes are equivalent to "up" and "down" in [[#Notation|the notation]] system, where lifts and drops would represent a single edostep in [[ups and downs notation]] in the context of larger rodan edos that map this comma to multiple edosteps.
