Definition: any compass that determines direction by local magnetic anomaly; used where relevant charts are available and where a planet's total magnetic field is unstable or subject to masking by severe magnetic storms.
Commentary: On Arrakis, due to the magnetic interference of the storms and the moons, the paracompass is the sole means of guidance. But when in Hagga Basin South (south of the pole) heading para-north (also south from the pole) it can become confusing. My advice: don’t overthink it.
