A 15-odd-limit dekany. This creates a scale of 1 65/64 13/12 35/32 7/6 5/4 13/8 7/4 15/8 91/48, with steps of 65/64 16/15 105/104 16/15 15/14 13/10 14/13 15/14 91/90 96/91. This does have three perfect fifths, but they are all clustered on one side of the scale, and there is a massive gap on the other side. This makes it a very incomplete detempered version of negri, with multiple close notes that would be tempered together in a regular temperament. This means it can create many different xenharmonic sounds, but needs further expansion to approximate any kind of familiar songwriting. A good example of how to accomplish is the 3-7-13-15 stellated hexany.
