Months and Time Accounting

Post by Harroghty » Thu Dec 01, 2011 11:48 am

The months on the calendar of Harptos are as follows:

Hammer (Deepwinter) 1
Alturiak (The Claw of Winter) 2
Ches (The Claw of Sunsets) 3
Tarsakh (The Claw of the Storms) 4
Mirtul (The Melting) 5
Kythorn (The Time of Flowers) 6
Flamerule (Summertide) 7
Eleasias (Highsun) 8
Eleint (The Fading) 9
Marpenoth (Leafall) 10
Uktar (The Rotting) 11
Nightal (The Drawing Down) 12

Days correspond to months and so you should check for both simultaneously if you want to check for a specific day.

if month() == 1
if day() == 2


(for the second day in Deepwinter)

Some major holidays fall between two months. Check for the last day of one month and the first day of the second in those cases. The holidays are shown below:

Winter Solstice Nightal 20 (12, 20)
Spring Equinox Ches 19 (3, 19)
Greengrass Tarsakh 30 - Mirtul 1 (4, 30 - 5, 1)
Summer Solstice Kythorn 20 (6, 20)
Midsummer Flamerule 30 - Eleasias 1 (7, 30 - 8, 1)
Shieldmeet Eleasias 2 (every four years) (8, 2)
Autumn Equinox Eleint 21 (9, 21)
Harvesttide Eleint 30 - Marpenoth 1 (9, 30 - 10, 1)
Feast of the Moon Uktar 30 - Nightal 1 (11, 30 - 12, 1)
