(( This is strictly an information thread. If you have questions or comments, please PM them DIRECTLY to Fictrix or the DM team. DO NOT POST ON THIS THREAD.))
Breakdown
* There are 12 months to a year
* There are 30 days to a month
* There are 6 days to a week
* There are 24 hours to a day
Midor acknowledges only three seasons:
* Lumenox [Summer] - the bright, living season
* Crescindelle [Autumn] - the ripening/dying/harvest season
* Glacille [Winter] - the cold season
The months are as follows:
1. Springarre
2. Kramiarre
3. Solarre
4. Luminarre
5. Quercusarre
6. Azurinarre
7. Cassadarre
8. Serildarre
9. Myridarre
10. Vyntarre
11. Diamarre
12. Mortuarre
The days are as follows:
1. Justicadi
2. Binardi
3. Tripladi
4. Tetradi
5. Silvradi
6. Herialdi
Years are counted from 0 SD
* SD = Salvation from Darkness
* This is the year that Kramer and Sprenger arrived on the scene as the first harbingers of Midoran and saved Aristi from the plague
* There is no other reckoning - anything before 0 SD is counted in negatives (eg 10 years prior = -10 SD)
* 2005 AD in RL = 1001 SD
Date Format
Because months are perfectly divisible by weeks, dates are expressed as:
Nth [Day Name] of [Month Name], [Year Number] SD
Example 1: 9th day of Solarre, 990 SD
Would be written as:
2nd Tripladi of Solarre, 990 SD
Example 2: 25th day of Diamarre, 915 SD
Would be written as:
5th Justicadi of Diamarre, 915 SD
Therefore...
Midor Day is: 1st Justicadi of Springarre, 0 SD
Foundation Day is: 2nd Silvradi of Kramiarre, 1001 SD
Battle of the Plains is: 3rd Justicadi of Cassadarre, 1001 SD
Destruction of the Paladin Order: 4th Justicadi of Kramiarre, 1002 SD
Hours/Telling Time
Midor uses 24 hour time.
So...
9am = the ninth hour.
1pm = the thirteenth hour. |
